Aurora Walton and Lucas Carter novel Chapter 1167

“Pray for yourself, truly pray for yourself.”

She felt like a drowning woman barely keeping her own head above water.

It was obvious Lucas would come for her next.

Megan tried to slip away quietly, but Lucas‘ sharp eyes caught her. “Megan, stay right where you are.”

Her body stiffened.

She snapped to attention like a soldier. “Don’t worry, my dear cousin, I’ll stand right here.”

Leon had been unhappy with Lucas‘ tone toward Megan, but the word cousin instantly brought him back

to reality.

So, this man was her cousin?

Didn’t that make him his future cousin–in–law?

Leon’s expression changed at once, and the look he gave Lucas turned deferential.

The other women noticed too, and in that instant understood. Aurora and this godlike man were clearly

together.

It was obvious none of them had a chance.

Staying here any longer would be pointless.

Aurora gave an awkward smile. “Lucas, don’t be so angry.”

“Is that so? Then you’d better give me a reasonable explanation for why you’re here.” Lucas‘ smile was

dark and crooked.

Aurora tried to soften things. “Why don’t we go home first? I’ll explain everything then.”

Lucas narrowed his eyes, danger flashing within. “You’d better tell me the whole truth.”

Aurora nodded seriously. “Don’t worry, I won’t hide anything from you.”

“You’d better not.” Lucas‘ gaze stayed cold.

He pulled Aurora by the hand and left.

Seeing this, Megan finally let out a breath of relief.

Good, maybe this meant her cousin would let her off the hook.

But the next second, she knew she had been far too naïve.

As Lucas passed her, he tossed out a single line: “You’d better watch yourself.”

The meaning was so obvious that if she still didn’t get it, she really would be a complete fool.

Megan’s small frame trembled, and she was nearly in tears.

This time she was truly doomed.

Dragging Aurora into a place like this–who knew how her cousin would report it back?

Her parents would surely dock her allowance again. She barely had much to begin with, and now it would

be even worse.

And whatever Lucas said, her parents always listened.

It seemed she had no hope at all for the near future.
