Chapter 1686

"I'm not mad."

Silence hung in the air. What could Aurora possibly say?

She couldn't outright demand Craig cut ties with Walter and Magnolia, nor could she let this escalate to a full-blown fight, much less a divorce. So, she had to suck it up.

Craig parked the car, glancing at the time. The plane was due in half an hour.

He sighed, trying to keep his patience. "You're pregnant. Brooding isn't good for you. If there's something on your mind, just say it."

"What do you expect me to say?"

Craig frowned. "Did Magnolia stir things up with you again?"

Aurora pressed her lips together, silent.

She wouldn't even look at him.

"Walter's been inviting me over for a while, and I've been making excuses. But then he played the guilt card... said I've been acting too high-and-mighty since marrying into the Lopez family."

Craig rarely spoke so much at once.
