Chapter 45 Do You Regret It?
I stepped back to a safe distance, smiling as I enjoyed their conversation.
The scent on them was overpowering, and when I was too close, I could hardly bear it.
This position was just right, I could hear their conversation clearly without being overwhelmed by the strong smells. It was perfect for watching.
It seemed that Cadell had noticed the disdain in my eyes. His movements immediately became stiffer, and a hint of embarrassment appeared on his face.
However, Lorna didn’t notice his mood and continued to relentlessly question him, “I’m embarrassing myself? Cadell, didn’t you see? It’s Aurora who’s bullying me! You won’t stand up for me, and now you’re saying I’m embarrassing? Do you regret it? Do you regret making things so tense with Aurora?”
Her eyes were red, and her expression was full of grievance.
If this had happened before, Cadell would have felt sorry for her, but now, the dirt on Lorna’s face made the
few pitiful tears on her face look ridiculous and laughable.
Rather than evoking Cadell’s sympathy, it only made him feel more disgusted!
Cadell finally couldn’t take it anymore. He abruptly raised his arm, as if about to slap her in the face.
However, when he saw the dirt on her face, his hand paused.
He found it filthy!
Even so, Lorna sensed his intention and couldn’t help but widen her eyes in surprise.
I raised an eyebrow. Cadell had really been pushed to the edge; even the gentleness he had pretended to show was completely gone.
Just as I thought Lorna would argue with Cadell, her movements suddenly stopped. The fury on her face
quickly faded, and her body trembled involuntarily.
I became interested and carefully observed Lorna’s reaction. Had she ever been hit by Cadell?
Otherwise, why would she react like this?
It seemed their relationship wasn’t as close as I had imagined.
Cadell took a deep breath and gritted his teeth as he said to Lorna, “Lorna, my patience is limited. You’d
better stop causing trouble, or I can’t guarantee what will happen next.”
Lorna panted heavily but didn’t respond. She clenched her fists, and after a moment, gritted her teeth, turned
around, and seemed ready to leave./
Of course, I didn’t want them to leave just yet. My fun was only beginning, and if they left now, where else
would I find amusement?
Moreover, without the conflict between Lorna and Cadell, once Cadell was free, who knew what disgusting things he might say?
If they could leave together now, maybe I could save myself some trouble.

Chapter 45 Be You Regret
Just as I thought about it, I slowly spoke up, “Lorna, don’t rush off. You might not know this, but I’ve already
reached an agreement with Charles. The Hartman family will not help you repay the one hundred million you owe Edmund.”
My words clearly hit a nerve with Lorna. Her breath became rapid, and she turned to stare at Cadell in disbelief. “Cadell, is what Aurora said true? You really won’t help me anymore?”
As expected, my guess was right–Cadell hadn’t discussed this with her.
Interesting.
So interesting!
I was very curious to see how Cadell would handle this now.
Cadell’s expression immediately changed. It seemed like he wanted to glare at me, but then, because he needed to repair his relationship with me, he forcibly held back his emotions.
He then patiently said to Lorna, “Lorna, don’t listen to Aurora’s nonsense. I’ll explain this to you later, okay?”
I, of course, wasn’t going to let him get away with it so easily.
I raised an eyebrow. “Cadell, Charles and I signed a contract. If you try any schemes or tricks… I’ll go straight to Charles and tell him everything.”
Under my threat, Cadell’s face grew even darker. He gritted his teeth and stared at me. “You’ve had enough fun. Can you stop causing trouble for me?”
“Get this clear.” I was very displeased with his tone, my expression freezing cold. “Cadell, I’ve already broken up with you. Don’t speak to me like that. Also, I’m willing to help you clear things up, but only if you don’t
mess things up yourself. If you annoy me, I won’t be this easy to deal with next time.”
I wasn’t Lorna, and I didn’t need to depend on him to get by, so why should I keep appeasing him?
If he genuinely begged me on his knees, maybe I would let him off. But for him to say this… It was too
arrogant.
My words seemed like a bucket of cold water, soaking him thoroughly. Cadell finally realized his position.
He took a deep breath and forced a flattering smile at me. “Aurora, don’t be angry. I didn’t mean it like that.”
“I don’t care what you meant, and I’m not interested in knowing.” I gave him a cold stare. “If I find out you used
your influence to help Lorna repay her debt, I will make sure you regret it.”
We had been in a relationship for seven years, so Cadell understood my temperament. I was stubborn and
never changed my mind.
I had leverage over him, so he dared not offend me.
Seeing how soft Cadell was toward me and how cold and violent he was toward her, Lorna finally couldn’t
control herself and burst into tears.
Her crying attracted a lot of attention. Passersby in the garden gathered around.
At first, they looked on with curiosity, but as their eyes fell on Lorna’s face, their expressions quickly turned to disdain.
I clearly heard a woman say, “What’s wrong with her? Did she eat s**t and cry? Does she love eating that so

much? If so, my dog’s digestion is pretty good…
The words were harsh and tasteless, but I couldn’t help but laugh.
Lorna cared most about her Image, and when she heard this, her face instantly froze.
Then, someone in the crowd asked, “Why does she look so familiar? I know! Isn’t she the mistress who ruined
someone else’s marriage? Didn’t she steal a wealthy man’s heart? Why does she look so pathetic now? Can’t
even afford food?”
The words struck Lorna like a sharp dagger, deeply cutting into her heart, and her dignity was completely
shattered!
