Chapter 1187: Chapter 1187: She Will Come

"What reason do we have to invite her here? Even if we invite her, she might not show up, right?" Nico Spencer furrowed his brow. Cymbeline Jennings’ words reminded him that Aurelia Shaw was a woman who could not stay; she was too dangerous and would be an obstacle to his future.

She must be eliminated!

Cymbeline Jennings had a peculiar smile on her face. "She will come; she must come."

...

The afternoon sunlight was gentle, its golden rays falling on the woman wearing a men’s shirt on the balcony. The shirt reached her thighs, revealing two long and straight legs, with her long, black, curly hair hanging down to her waist, unkempt yet compelling in its casual beauty. Aurelia was watering the flowers.

Before, she had filled Mason Nightshade’s balcony with flowers. She didn’t know when Mason would return home, but she wanted him to see the best as soon as he did, so she simply filled the balcony with flowers.

This way, whether or not she was home, regardless of whether she knew he had returned, he could look up and see the most beautiful scenery, which she had cultivated with her own hands.

When she returned to life, she had personally destroyed those flowers, and now she had nurtured them back.

"Aurelia." Ursa Miller’s voice came from behind, tinged with a hint of unnatural tension. Just now, she had lost herself staring at Aurelia.

Ursa, blushing, handed a finely crafted letter to Aurelia. "Someone delivered this, saying it’s for you."

For her? Since she returned, quite a few people had invited her: TV stations, journalist interviews, and major noble families who heard she reconciled with Mason and wanted to establish connections...but it’s rather unique to send a letter in this fashion.

Aurelia initially thought it was another one of those invitations, didn’t pay much attention, and opened it. Upon reading its contents, her expression changed, and her eyes immediately turned sharp.

Ursa was taken aback, almost instantly sensing Aurelia’s change in mood, as her gentle aura turned fierce.

"Aurelia, is something wrong? What’s written in the letter?" She should have asked who sent the letter, but the person had left immediately after delivering it, only stating it was for Aurelia.

"I’m fine; I won’t be having dinner at home. Let Mrs. Jiang know not to prepare my meal." Aurelia said as she walked towards her room.

Ursa watched her back with concern, feeling as though something was about to happen.

...

As night fell, a heavy atmosphere permeated the air. At the Spencer residence, glasses clinked, luxury cars were gathered, and it was lively. Nico Spencer had certain tactics. Despite the Spencer family’s declining business, he managed to invite many heavyweight figures from the noble families, including Mr. Chen, who had been reclusive and inclined towards retirement, to attend the banquet.

Nico Spencer schmoozed with the guests, his eyes glimmering with cunning. How could such a time lack witnesses from these heavyweight figures in the noble families? Soon after, he felt a bit worried.

Cymbeline Jennings confidently assured him that Aurelia Shaw would definitely show, but she refused to reveal her method. This woman was always unreliable in her actions; if she messed up this time, with so many guests invited, how would he handle the situation?

Nico Spencer scanned the crowd a few times without spotting Cymbeline Jennings, just as he was about to look for her, a buzz of conversation arose. He turned his head and slightly squinted his deep eyes.

Aurelia was always the center of attention, no matter where she was.

A silver floor-length gown enveloped her curvaceous figure. Her long hair was styled up, exposing her petite face with exquisite makeup. Her lips curved into a subtle smile, her eyes carrying a hint of flamboyance mixed with a touch of coldness.

Those approaching to flirt immediately drew back.
