Chapter 1460 Aurora’s Resolution
Aurora didn’t seem to be brooding over this, for she had probably gotten used to responding to everything with an
air of nonchalance. With a double-handed slap on her thigh, she said, “I need a chance to become popular again. I
also want to prove that I got into my present state not because my abilities are out of date, but because Bryce had
failed me.”
Ian felt even more uncomfortable at the mention of Bryce. Aurora wasn’t the only woman Bryce had failed; he had
failed many women and several of his children. However, he had no intention of regretting it so far, nor did he feel
that he had sinned against anyone. Instead, he thought he was the one who had been taken most advantage of. He
had kept so many mistresses, all of whom had spent a lot of his money, whereas his children grew up being
admired and lauded to the skies because of his reputation. He felt he had done enough.
Moreover, Bryce had never suffered any setbacks in his life. The Morgan Group was a family company, a property

successful in his studies and later in his running of the company. One might as well say that his life was smooth
sailing since everything he wanted would eventually come into his possession. This resulted in his particularly
conceited personality, for he never listened to anyone. To him, whatever anyone said was always inferior to what he
thought.
Ian was filled with disgust whenever he thought of this. Bryce had done many things in his life that he should’ve
been ashamed of, so why should he be able to enjoy a life blessed with good fortune?
Aurora looked up at Ian. “Now that I have said everything I wanted to say, I have nothing else to hide from you.”
Cindy came out of the kitchen just in time—the food was ready after she microwaved it in the microwave oven. She
served the food on the table and said, “The food’s ready.” Not only that, she was attentive enough to brew a cup of
scented tea and served it next to the food.
Aurora came over and looked at the food. “Well, your little girlfriend is quite good at looking after people. It seems
that she’s taking good care of you.” She sat down, picked up her cutlery, and took a bite. “Hmm, and it tastes good
too. Everything about you is good except for your family’s social standing.”
Ian didn’t like to hear such a remark from Aurora. “Is her family’s standing that important? Bryce comes from a
very good family, but how did he treat you?”
Aurora quickly waved her hand. “All right, all right, I’ve put my foot in my mouth. I have no intention of tearing you
two apart either. What right do I have to interfere in your relationships? I still have this bit of self-knowledge.”
Ian looked at Aurora while still leaning on the armrest of his sofa. “I’ll find someone to ask about it for you. Don’t pin
your hopes on me, though. I don’t have many acquaintances, so I’m not sure if I can really hook you up with jobs.
I’m not doing as well as you think I am in show business.”
Aurora knew Ian had his own troubles, of course. He had been dragged through the mud lately, which proved that
many had been targeting him. If she wanted to make a comeback, she would bring a lot of controversy to him in
the future. Even so, she wanted to give it a try, for the entertainment industry was where one could make the most
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmmoney in the quickest way possible. As Aurora was halfway through her life, she understood many truths that she
had stubbornly refused to believe when she was young. For one, she knew how much influence money could have
on one’s life. She wouldn’t have been dumped by Bryce so easily when she was young if she had enough assets to
match Bryce’s. Men were materialistic, and Bryce could jilt her without hesitation simply because she had nothing
and could easily be substituted by others.
If she were also rich and powerful, Bryce wouldn’t have treated her that way. However, it was too late for her to
realize this, for she had used up half of her lifetime. Therefore, she was now eager to make a comeback and earn
everything she had missed in her youth.
She wouldn’t say that this was solely for Ian’s sake, but she did make such a decision with Ian in mind. At Ian’s
current age, it was already impossible for her to make it up to him emotionally, so the only thing left that she could
give him was things that money could buy. Ian certainly looked down on everything she owned right now, so she
had to give him more than that.
Aurora ate the meal. One could tell she was truly hungry, for she ate up all the dishes Cindy had heated up for her.
