Chapter 1118
Hearing this, Theodore took out a card from his pocket and handed it to Aurora.
"Use this card," he said.
"This won't do." Aurora pushed the card away. "She's my cousin. How can I let you pay for everything?"
"It's fine. She's your cousin, so I'm doing this as a favor to you. I'm also showing some hospitality. Let her enjoy herself these days," Theodore insisted, stuffing the card into Aurora's hand.
"Thank you. Don't worry, I'll make sure to spend wisely," Aurora replied.
"It's fine. Spend however you like," Theodore said.
Aurora lowered her head as she blushed. She carefully tucked the card into her bag and then walked over to Angie.
"Angie, we're going to take you to see Theodore's grandmother. She's heard that you're my cousin and wants to meet you."
"Really? That's great! Let's go now!" Angie responded eagerly, her gaze sticking to Theodore like gum.
Theodore felt uncomfortable under Angie's gaze, as though a sleazy man were leering at a woman. However, for Aurora's sake, he didn't show any displeasure. He maintained his politeness and even kindly helped Angie with her suitcase.
The three of them got into the car, and Angie immediately tried to sit in the front passenger seat.
Theodore quickly blocked her and said, "You and Aurora sit in the back. You two haven't seen each other in a while. You can chat."
He didn't want to sit too close to Angie. The heavy scent of her makeup was unpleasant.
Aurora, understanding his discomfort, immediately linked arms with Angie and said, "Angie, let's sit in the back. We need to catch up, so let Theo focus on driving."
The black SUV drove down the road. Aurora and Angie chatted non-stop, making Theodore feel at ease as he drove.
Angie fixed her gaze on Theodore's back, then whispered into Aurora's ear, "Do you two have something going on?"
Aurora blushed and gently nudged Angie. She shyly nodded in agreement.NôvelDrama.Org is the owner.
Angie's eyes widened in disbelief, her jealousy apparent as she whispered, "Is he good in bed?"
Aurora's face turned scarlet, and she nodded again.
Angie was so excited she almost jumped out of her seat. She was envious and resentful. Aurora quickly grabbed her arm and shook her head, signaling her to calm down.
Angie muttered in her ear, "I'm so envious of you. I really am."
Theodore was Angie's ultimate idol.
Theodore frowned slightly. He couldn't hear what the two girls in the back were whispering about, but it made him uncomfortable. He didn't say anything, and stepped down on the accelerator.
After they returned, Aurora took Angie to see Rebecca.
Yet, Rebecca had forgotten about Aurora's cousin and asked repeatedly, "What cousin?"
Aurora patiently explained the situation.
The old lady suddenly remembered. "Oh, it's Rose's cousin! How wonderful!"
Although Angie verbally attacked

people online, she would never dare act this way in real life. She was very polite to Rebecca and a good flatterer. Rebecca was pleased by her sweet words. She invited Angie to stay for a few days and not bother with a hotel. Angie was naturally happy to accept.
According to Aurora, Theodore visited his grandmother every day. If Angie stayed here, she would get to see him every day.
Aurora hadn't expected Rebecca to let Angie stay in the house. She hadn't even been allowed to stay herself.
"Grandma, here's the thing," Aurora explained. "Since Angie is here for a few days, I need to stay with her. If she stays here, I won't be able to accompany her."
"That's easy." Rebecca smiled. "You can stay here too. It's your home."
"Well..." Aurora turned to look at Theodore.
Theodore said, "You can stay here for a few days with your cousin if you want."
"Well, I'll be staying then. I don't want
to leave Angie alone here. I'll stay and keep her company. She's unfamiliar with the area," Aurora said, taking Angie's arm as if Angie was her best friend. Content belongs
Rebecca smiled. "Rose, take Angie upstairs and let her choose a guest room she likes."
"Okay, Grandma. I'll take her now." Aurora grabbed Angie's arm. "Angie, follow me."
The two of them headed upstairs together.
