Aurora Walton and Lucas Carter novel Chapter 1058

Chapter 1058

Grace set a cup of tea in front of Aurora, her face cool. “I asked you here today because there’s something I want to discuss with you.”

“Madam Grace, you’re the primary decision–maker in this company.”

Aurora took a sip from the cup, savoring the fresh, mellow taste before speaking slowly.

“There are plenty of matters you don’t need to consult me on. You can make those decisions yourself.”

She wasn’t wrong, and she didn’t think there was anything inappropriate about saying it.

After all, the company belonged entirely to Grace.

She was just here working for her, and that was something Aurora had always understood.

Which was why she found it unnecessary for her mother to ask her opinion in this way.

Grace, however, was dissatisfied with her tone. “You’re my daughter. Is it wrong for me, as your mother,

to discuss certain things with you?”

The sudden firmness in her voice caught Aurora off guard.

She raised an eyebrow slightly and explained, “Madam Grace, that’s not what I meant. I just think there are many decisions you can make on your own, and I have other matters to handle on my side.”

Hearing this, Grace understood exactly what she meant.

She rose to her feet. “So, you think I’m wasting your time?”

There was disappointment in her tone.

Even after hearing Aurora speak to her this way, she had still been considering giving her the position of

successor.

Seeing the disappointment on Grace’s face, Aurora felt an unexpected pang of unease.

But she couldn’t find the right words to explain herself.

After all, these past weeks, her focus had been entirely on the company.

“Madam Grace, that’s not what I meant.”

Aurora glanced at the steaming tea on the table, deciding it was best to change the subject. “Madam Grace, you should take a look at this file.”

“What is it?”

Grace understood right away that Aurora was trying to steer the conversation elsewhere, so she went

along with it.

She knew that sometimes, it was better to give each other a way to step back.

If they couldn’t handle a small matter like this without tension, how would they ever manage to work together on the company’s bigger issues?

After all, they were mother and daughter–there shouldn’t be grudges that lasted overnight.

Aurora also caught on to her mother’s intent and didn’t keep her guessing.

“It’s my report on the Hayes family. I want to point out that they’re completely unfit for cooperation. They’re like a pack of leeches, draining our company dry.
