Chapter 537 He Must've Loved You

Aurora Crest was a mountain located on the outskirts of Regalia, not far from the city. As such, Miles and the others soon arrived at the mountain's base.

Other Young family members, like Anastasia, Gabriel, and Chloe, arrived after them. When Anastasia saw Harriette, her face was grim.

Chloe simply glanced at Harriette once but couldn't contain her sarcasm when faced with Miles, with whom she was in a business dispute.

"You're so full of schemes, Miles. I heard you've stationed this newly returned Ms. Young at the company already. Are you that eager to use her as your new bargaining chip and claim more of the inheritance shares?"

Then, she chuckled coldly and shifted her gaze to Rose. "You missed one here. Why aren't you including her in Young Group yet?"

Chloe had been losing the upper hand in the business battle with Miles lately. Despite her unkind words, Miles took the high road.

"Back when Grandpa was still around, we never talked about work when we came up here as a family, only our love and memories about each other."

"Love and memories about each other?" Chloe scoffed. "I don't have any love for you guys. I'm telling you, Miles, even if our family's assets are divided equally, I'm still entitled to my share! Don't even think about taking that from me!" Miles ignored her antics and signaled to Rose and Harriette. "Let's go."

Aurora Crest consisted solely of trails and stairs that led up to the mountain. Hence, they could only hike up without the use of motorized vehicles. Not many people were there that day.

During their hike, Miles would retell interesting stories about Oliver at every corner. He wanted Rose to hear all of them.

Those stories allowed Rose to visualize Oliver with them on the trek. When she gazed at Miles, she suddenly realized the person who missed Oliver the most wasn't her, but rather him. The person who shared the fondest bond with Oliver was also him. "Miles..." Rose couldn't help but call out to him.
