Aurora came to accompany Rebecca again.
Rebecca only recognized her now, always calling her Rosalie. Aurora seemed to have fully accepted this identity and acted as if she were indeed Rosalie. Each time, she would respond earnestly.
Theodore had originally planned to talk to Aurora about breaking up with her, but if he did, he wouldn’t be able to have her continue accompanying his grandmother.
However, he couldn’t keep delaying because of this. In the end, he decided to tell her today.
Aurora was with Rebecca, while Theodore sat on the couch reading a magazine. After a while, Aurora ran over excitedly.
Theo! She held up her phone, looking thrilled.
What’s the matter? Theodore asked.
Do you remember I told you about my cousin?
Theodore nodded. Yes.
Aurora gave a small nod. When I was in Melrine, I told her that when I came back, she could come visit me. She’s here now and about to land. I need to pick her up. Can you come with me?
Theodore pursed his lips. I’ll have the driver take you.
Aurora’s smile immediately faded, and disappointment flickered in her eyes.
But she admires you a lot. I promised her she could meet you.
Theodore’s gaze darkened, but he couldn’t bear seeing Aurora’s downcast look. Finally, he put the magazine aside and said, Alright, I’ll go with you to pick her up.
Aurora immediately brightened, her face blossoming into a brilliant smile. Thank you!
She threw herself into his arms and hugged him.
What’s got you feeling so happy to hug Theo like that? Rebecca asked.
Aurora walked over and

and I will go pick her up.
You have a cousin? Why didn’t I know?
She’s always been out of town, and we don’t see each other much, so you haven’t heard of her.
Oh, I see. Rebecca didn’t think much of it. Then bring her over. Let me have a look.
Really? Grandma? Aurora hadn’t planned to have her cousin stay here, only intending to find her a nearby hotel.
Of course. I’m sure your cousin is also very cute. Ask her to come over. I want to meet her.
Okay, Grandma. Theo and I will bring her back.
Afterward, Theodore drove Aurora to the airport.

Angie, I’m over here! Aurora raised her hand and waved energetically.
The woman grabbed her suitcase and ran over. Aurora!
The two embraced excitedly. Then, the woman’s gaze shifted to Theodore. Her eyes widened and sparkled like stars.
Theo, this is my cousin. She shares the same surname as me. Her name is Angie Payne, Aurora introduced.
Theodore glanced at Angie indifferently, finally replying politely, Hello, Angie.
Angie was somewhat plain-looking.
ovel
Her eyes were small, her nose was rather large, and the shape of her face was a bit odd, giving her an unbalanced appearance. Her makeup was heavy, and her, mascara was all over her eyes.
Her makeup was so poorly done that it would have been better if she hadn’t worn any at all.
