    Chapter 2186 How Much Hatred Would It Take


    Lucy went straight over to Cindy''s seat and said casually, "Cindy, let''s have dinner together tonight. You


    don''t have any appointments after work, do you?"


    Cindy gave an ''oh''. "I don''t think I can make it. My boyfriend will being home after the shoot today,


    so I have to keep himpany at home."


    Her voice wasn''t soft, and she didn''t speak like she was hiding anything. Actually, it had been so long


    since her rtionship with Ian was announced; there wasn''t anything to hide.


    Lucy was a little surprised. "Oh, so Ian is going back today? You''d better keep himpany, then. He


    must have been quite busy with all that shooting." Lucy spoke in a pleasant tone, and she also seemed


    amicable. So, it looked like she was on extra close terms with Cindy.


    Cindy nodded. "Yes, so I won''t be able to join your dinner tonight."


    Lucy didn''t mind that much. With an ''it''s okay'', she said they could have it another time, then turned


    around and left.


    Cindy pursed her lips as she watched Lucy''s figure disappear at the entrance of the office.


    When she thought about it, she actually admired Lucy. She felt that Lucy was determined and could


    persist till the end no matter what it was. This meant that Lucy had a lot of patience, and this virtue of


    hers gave her an edge in the job market.


    Cindy started gathering the things on the desk, and the girl scooted over on her chair again. "Are you


    kidding me? Do you know her too? You two look like you''re quite close."


    Cindy turned to look at the girl. "Shall I tell you the truth? Honestly, I don''t know her that well."


    The girl was filled with surprise. "Really? Seeing you two like that, I thought you were friends for years."


    Cindy finished clearing her desk and adjusted her bag. "No, I got to know her only recently."


    The girl clicked her tongue. "Still, you''re something, aren''t you? We can''t get to know her even if we


    wanted to."


    Cindy didn''t have the heart to say that she didn''t want to be acquainted with Lucy.


    After work, Cindy hastily hailed a ride back home from thepany. She had eaten quite a lot during


    lunch, so she didn''t feel too hungry at the moment. After getting home, she immediately went to her

    room and flopped onto the bed.


    After being so tense for an entire day, she could finally rx.


    Cindyy on the bed and dozed off for a bit, and she only woke up when Aurora came home and


    knocked on the door to her room.


    Cindy opened the door in a daze. "You''re back."


    Aurora was holding some takeout in her hand. "Here, this is for you. You didn''t pick up when I called


    you just now. I wanted to ask you what you want to eat tonight since I could get it for you. I just checked


    the kitchen and saw that you didn''t prepare any dinner, so this is great timing."


    Cindy grinned, then hastily went to wash up. After that, she went over to eat.


    It was a rare asion for Aurora not to have a jam-packed schedule, so she coulde home earlier.


    She leaned against the chair and looked up at the ceiling. "Say, people can be so weird sometimes. I


    used to hate Leah so much, but now when I think about her, I can''t remember how despicable she


    used to be. Now, my impression of her is just okay."


    With that, Aurora chuckled. "So weird, right? When someone was alive, we might wish they would just


    die, but when they''re no longer here, we might think it''s better if they were alive. It''s so funny."


    Cindy looked up and nced at Aurora. "That''s why we always glorify the dead. It must be because of


    this mentality."


    No matter how evil someone had been in their life, after their death, their evil deeds would fade away,


    and people would just remember the mundane or nice things they did.


    After a while, Aurora sat up straight. "Still, how much hatred would it take for a son to kill his own


    mother?"


    Cindy raised an eyebrow. "Huh? What?"


    Ian didn''t manage to update Cindy on Leah''s incident, so Cindy had no idea that Leah died at Simon''s


    hand in the end. When Aurora saw Cindy''s reaction, she realized what was going on. She hastily went


    over to the dining table and told Cindy everything she had heard from Ian.
