Gina clutched Curtis‘ arm, urging him to leave with her.

Curtis‘ eyes were bloodshot, his complexion drained of color. He glanced at Matthew, unwilling to concede. “Are you really going to keep a jerk who ruins others‘ relationships by your side?”

Gordon scoffed, rolling his eyes in disdain. “Oh, are you considering replacing me? Do you even comprehend your own value? What do you possess that can even compare to me?” he retorted.

Does he think anyone is qualified to be Mr. Quigley’s special assistant?

He was a rare find, having ascended to his position as Matthew’s special assistant through sheer determination and hard work. While many may vie for his role, for Curtis, a man devoid of any notable talent, to even entertain the notion of challenging him was nothing short of insulting.

Curtis‘ face turned even paler as he turned to look at Aurelia.

Her gaze bore into him with an icy intensity, like she was staring at a sworn enemy.

His heart plummeted; it was clear she harbored nothing but contempt for him. She no longer wanted him.

Feeling flustered, Curtis stammered, “Auri, can we find a quiet place to talk things over calmly?”

“There’s no need. Just stay away from me in the future,” Aurelia replied, her expression devoid of emotion.

Gripping the medical report firmly, she turned and left without another word.

As she passed by Matthew, she paused briefly, then turned toward Gordon. “Thank you,” she said.

“Of course, anytime,” Gordon replied promptly.

Curtis wanted to chase after her, but was held back by his mother. In a hushed tone, she reminded him, “We’ve taken quite a lot of money from her. Don’t tell me you’re prépared to return it.”

Gina scrutinized her son’s expression carefully. “If you can’t bear to let her go, wait until you’ve collected yourself before having a conversation with her.”

“She has always loved me. This must be a misunderstanding,” Curtis muttered through clenched teeth.

Matthew, wearing a frosty expression, shot Curtis a disdainful glance before striding away.
