Chapter 390: Showing Off Affection

It took a while before the car door finally opened. Aurora, almost instinctively, straightened her dress as Julian also stepped out. Whatever he said made Aurora gently punch him on the chest. Julian, seizing the moment, pulled her into his arms and kissed her, their sweet interaction palpable even to Hayden from afar.

Hayden's hands tightly clutched the edge of the windowsill, the veins on his hands standing out. Susan scoffed disdainfully.

"God, I thought she was such a saintly woman, truly shameless."

At that moment, Susan clearly forgot how she had drugged Hayden years ago, voluntarily undressing in front of him when she was only eighteen.

"Don't talk about her like that," Hayden couldn't stand anyone slandering her, not even slightly.

"Don't talk, don't say a word about her, you've put her on a pedestal, but she doesn't care about you at all."

Susan was most enraged by this.

She had given her heart and soul to Hayden, but he had devoted his entire heart to Aurora, making Susan feel like nothing but air in his presence.

"I don't need you meddling in my affairs. If you interfere again, we'll see each other in court," Hayden said coldly, then went back to lie on his bed.

Hearing 'we'll see each other in court,' Susan felt her heart sink; he actually wanted to divorce her for a woman who did not love him.

As she approached his bed, the sounds of high heels and Aurora's voice echoed in the hallway, "Ah, tea again, Julian, I'm really fine now, that tea is terribly bitter."

"I've told you, your health needs gradual care, and I've already had the nurse prepare it. It will be brought over soon," Julian coaxed her.

"But I really don't like it..."

Aurora's voice carried a clear whine, a sound that could soften any man.

Even Hayden felt a tug at his heart, wishing she was whining to him.

It seemed they stopped at the door, "No, I'll indulge you in anything else, but not when

it comes to your health. Go inside, and I'll bring the tea over."
