Chapter 1871

Aldor and Aurora were equally perplexed, unable to understand Keegan's anger.

Aurora, realizing the predicament Cordelia had put her in with Aldor, turned to her brother Keegan for support. She cautiously said, "Keegan, Grandma wants me to get engaged to Aldor."

Keegan took a moment, glanced at Aldor, and dryly commented, "Marrying my sister doesn't mean a pay raise."

Their speechlessness reflected their surprise at his response.

Aurora couldn't believe it. She pressed, "Is that all you're going to say?"

Keegan pondered, then added, "Once you make this choice, there's no going back."

Aurora's hopes sank. She had expected Keegan to be vehemently against the idea. 'How can he be okay with his subordinate marrying his sister? We're from different worlds, and I've been nothing but harsh to Aldor! Has Keegan lost his mind?'

Trying to reason with her brother, Aurora pointed out, "Look at us, Keegan. Do you really think Aldor and I are a good match?"
