Chapter 1802


    Chapter 1802 The Girl Who Likes Peter


    To describe it into words, the Morgan Family’s reputation had already gone down the drain, and now


    that someone was spilling insider information, the public somehow became more forgiving and


    empathetic.


    While the public didn’t exactly forgive Aurora, they were of the opinion that she had adequately atoned


    for her sins, given how her whole life was already close to being in shambles.


    Cindy waited for the exhaustion to pass, but in the end, she caved in and decided to take a nap


    instead.


    Ian texted her that afternoon and told her that he would not return untilter that evening. The Morgan


    Family would have a lot of loose ends to tie up after the funeral, so there was a chance he wouldn’t be


    back until well after supper time.


    Cindy wasn’t too bothered by this, having already foreseen that he would be held up at his family home


    untilte night. She briefly reminded him to take care of himself while he was there and allowed the


    matter to drop.


    It was evening by the time Cindy woke up from her nap and Aurora had already made dinner. Cindy


    had only just opened her bedroom door when she heard Aurora humming in the kitchen. She must


    have really moved on from grief instead of living in denial.


    When dinner was over, the both of them saw that there was still time for them to take an evening stroll


    downstairs. There were plenty of passers-by in the area at this hour, and Cindy and Aurora stopped in


    their tracks after walking a bit of distance from the apartment.


    Aurora turned to look at the park and chuckled as she said, “I wonder whether Peter is there. Want to


    go and take a look?”


    Cindy was quick to counter, “Why would I do that?”


    “Because he likes you,” Aurora teased with a wicked smile. “If you were to show up now, he’d definitely

    try to chat you up!”


    “Okay, please stop with your lies,” Cindy said defensively. “He doesn’t like me; there’s someone else


    who’s caught his eye.”


    Aurora didn’t believe her. It was impossible for a man with a crush on somebody else to be on such


    friendly terms with Cindy. However, she knew how Cindy couldn’t stand such teasing, so she relented


    after a quick round of jesting. Besides, with Cindy and Ian being a couple now, there were just some


    boundaries that even Aurora couldn’t cross with her jokes.


    As expected, there was the usual crowd at the park, but Cindy and Aurora did not head over. They


    rounded the park instead and quite a distance away from the vicinity of the park when Cindy heard


    someone calling after her.


    It was a woman’s voice, and she was shouting Cindy’s full name from a distance. Upon hearing this,


    Cindy and Aurora curiously turned around, with Cindy finding the voice to be familiar. Sure enough, she


    saw the girl who had a crush on Peter.


    The girl was standing not too far away behind them and she was staring at Cindy with glittering eyes.


    While there was no hostility in her gaze, Cindy could still sense her wariness.


    Aurora, on the other hand, didn’t quite understand what was going on as she turned to look at Cindy


    dubiously. “Wait, I didn’t know you had friends around these parts of the area.”


    In all the time that Cindy had hung out with them, Aurora never once heard her mention that she knew


    anyone in the area. More importantly, the girl who had called after Cindy looked rather familiar.


    Suddenly, Cindy addressed Aurora in hushed tones, “She’s the one who likes Peter. Maybe you should


    wait for me over there, Aurora. I think she may want to speak with me alone.”

    Suddenly, Cindy addressed Aurora in hushed tones, “She’s the one who likes Peter. Maybe you should


    wait for me over there, Aurora. I think she may want to speak with me alone.”


    Realization immediately dawned upon Aurora. If that girl has a thing for Peter, then she most definitely


    has something against Cindy. My goodness, will you just look at that murderous gleam in her eyes?


    Nodding imperceptibly, she said, “Alright, got it. Just take your time talking things out; I’ll be waiting


    over there by the side.”


    With that, Aurora turned and walked toward one of the trees, putting herself just a bit out of earshot as


    she stood in the shade.


    She didn’t look in Cindy’s direction either and merely spun to fix her gaze on the park in the distance.


    Meanwhile, Cindy stood in ce as the girl came over with a tight expression.


    Until now, Cindy still wasn’t sure what she had done to warrant such unwavering hostility from the girl,


    and anyone with half a mind could tell that there was nothing going on between her and Peter.


    Besides, Peter had already rified on things thest time they ran into each other.


    Then again, Cindy thought bitterly, women in love could be both blind and stupid sometimes.
