Chapter 1666 An Uninvited Guest
The more Cindy thought about it, the less she knew what to do and the more troubled she felt. After sitting on her
bed for a while, she realized that it was silent outside. She waited for a bit more before she carefully made her way
to the door. She pressed her ear against the door and listened to make sure that it was quiet before she opened the
door to peek outside.
Both Aurora and Ian weren’t in the living room, and the television had been turned off. Cindy froze for a moment.
Why didn’t they let me know if they had gone out? She walked out of her room and glanced at the living room
before turning to look in the direction of Aurora’s room. The door was open, and it was clear that no one was
inside. In other words, both Aurora and Ian had indeed left the house together. That’s good, I guess. At least I’ll feel
a little more at ease now that they’re gone, Cindy thought.

while, she returned to the couch. She had felt frustrated, uneasy, and awkward when Ian was around, but for some
reason, she felt empty on the inside when she found out that Ian had left.
I feel uneasy when he’s around, yet I feel worse when I don’t see him. Cindy had felt rather frustrated at first, but
at this point, she felt like she was about to lose her mind. She was aware that she had developed feelings for Ian.
After her previous argument with Ian, she had assumed that her feelings would gradually disappear once they grew
distant from one another. However, as she examined her feelings right then, she realized that she had been too
naïve all along. I didn’t just fail to lose feelings for Ian; I might have fallen even deeper for him.
Ian and Aurora had headed downstairs to meet Sean. Sean had to meet a client earlier that day, and he happened
to pass by Ian’s housing area on his way back to the company. Although he had his guard up with Ian, he didn’t
have any bad intentions toward Ian. He wanted to meet Ian to talk about their plans to visit Bryce.
Although Sean hadn’t asked about Aurora when he called Ian, Aurora wanted to go along to meet Sean. Sean
parked his car at the side of the road near Ian’s housing area, and he made his way to a café nearby. He had just
taken a sip of his drink after ordering a pot of tea when he looked up to see Ian and Aurora walking in together.
When Sean first saw Aurora, he froze for a short while. He didn’t have anything against Aurora. It was true that
Aurora and Bryce had an extramarital affair that neither of them was proud of, but Bryce had already been a
disloyal husband even before that. He had fooled around with tons of women. Aurora wasn’t the first or the last—
she was merely one of his many women.
Sean had spent most of his time in the hospital with Alice when she was extremely ill. Back then, most of Bryce’s
women had assumed that they had the chance to overtake Alice’s position in the family, and some of them had
even sneaked into the hospital to cause a fuss. However, Bryce had gotten rid of most of those women ever since.
Sean couldn’t recall the women who had visited the hospital back then, but he was certain that Aurora hadn’t been
one of them. He wasn’t especially fond of Aurora, but he didn’t hate her since he knew that she hadn’t visited the
hospital at that time.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWhen Ian saw Sean in the café, he led Aurora over to Sean’s table. Sean narrowed his eyes and stared at Aurora
for a few seconds. The last time I saw this woman, she had gotten into an argument with Bryce, and she sent Ian
over to Morgan Residence. She left Ian there without any hesitation. From what I remember, she wore a grim
expression that made her look threatening. I recall thinking that she was pretty charismatic. Yet, time seems to
have left its mark on her—she no longer looks like the fiery woman I once knew. It seems like she has been through
quite a lot of hardships since then. She looks gentler and kinder now—perhaps she’s changed after going through
the mill.
Aurora felt a pang of guilt when she saw Sean. She gave him a smile. “I hope you don’t mind me inviting myself
over.”
“Please take a seat.” Sean nodded.
Once Ian and Aurora sat down, Sean called for the waiter. They ordered some desserts. If it had just been the two
men at the café, a pot of tea would have sufficed. However, Sean felt like he had to order something else since a
woman was around.
