Chapter 231: I Can Make Money
When Estelle heard this, her nose twitched, and she felt heartache as if a needle was pricking her
heart. She held Aurora’s hand tightly and asked, “Mom, to whom did you sell the jade bracelet? I’ll
buy it back.”
“No, don’t do that. You need money now.”
“I have money.”
“To raise the children, you will need a lot of money. I know Tim is very rich, but Yohan and Yvonne
are not his biological children after all. Besides, I don’t want you to be overdependent on him. So I’ll
help you bring up your children. Your father gave me a lot of jewelry before. I’ll sell them...”
“Mom!” Estelle burst into tears. “I’m rich now. I can make money! I can raise my children
independently and make us live a better life. We have our own house and don’t need to rent an
apartment. Let’s go home now!”
“But our house is upied by your uncle...” Aurora eximed, stunned.
“I’ve managed to reim our house, Mom. We can move back home,” Estelle dered with a
triumphant tone.
Later, Estelle assisted Aurora with the discharge procedures.
“Miss Hudson, there is a remaining bnce on your mother’s medical ount. Would you like the
money to be refunded to you in cash or transferred to your husband’s ount?” the staff at the
billing section inquired.
“Could you please let me know the remaining bnce amount?” Estelle requested.
“Let me see... It’s twenty-five thousand dors.”
After contemting for a moment, Estelle made the decision to let Mr. Mysterious handle the
remaining bnce personally on another day. She believed it wouldn’t be appropriate for her to take
the initiative to deal with it.
She then told the staff, “Alright, my husband wille to take care of the refundter.”
“Okay.”

It was a lovely day today, and the sun was shining brightly.
Aurora had spent most of her time in the ward in the past month. When she walked out of the in-
patient building, she shielded her eyes against the dazzling sun.
“Mrs. Hudson, this pair of sunsses is for you. Your eyes will feel better after you put them on.”
Ron came over and handed Aurora a pair of sunsses.
Aurora was a little surprised when she saw him. In confusion, she looked at Ron and then at
Estelle.
“Hi. May I know who I’m talking to?” she asked Ron.
“Hello, Mrs. Hudson. I’m Ron. My boss sent me here to drive you home.”
Estelle had been used to Ron’s sudden appearance. She knew that Mr. Mysterious would ask Ron
to pick them up.
On the contrary, Aurora was pleasantly surprised and said, “Estelle, nowadays, few men are as
considerate as your boyfriend. He not only sent a driver to pick us up but also prepared sunsses
for me.”
“Mrs. Hudson, get in the car, please. I’ll drive you home,” Ron invited her.
“Okay.”
Then Aurora and Estelle got into the rear seats of the car.
Considering Aurora’s condition, Ron especially drove slowly.
“Ron is really a proficient driver,” Aurora turned to Estelle and said. “Your father used to drive slowly
and carefully for safety...”
Speaking of this, Aurora suddenly thought of the car ident and fell into silence.
Understanding Aurora’s concerns, Estelle grasped her hand firmly and reassured her, “Mom, I
promise you that I will ensure the culprits of the car ident face the consequences for their
actions.”
“I see.” Aurora nodded and ended the topic.
Many years had passed since the car ident urred, and the case had already been closed.
From Aurora’s perspective, even if they knew the identity of the culprit, they felt powerless to take
any action due to theck of evidence. She simply nodded earlier because she didn’t want to upset
Estelle with her concerns.
“Estelle, you are my only daughter. I only hope that you can live a good life.”
“I know, Mom.”
Aurora suggested, “You don’t have to be too fixated on the past. Don’t exhaust yourself or make
yourself unhappy.”
Estelle shook her head in disagreement and asserted, “I’m neither tired nor unhappy. Instead, I find
ease in the fact that the wrongdoers will face the consequences of their actions.”
Soon, the car stopped at the gate of the Hudson’s House.
Ron stepped out of the car first and hurriedly made his way to the other side, where he kindly
opened the rear door for Estelle and Aurora. With a polite smile, he addressed them, saying, “Mrs.
Hudson, Miss Hudson, we have arrived.”
Estelle exited the car and then turned to assist Aurora in getting out.
“Mrs. Hudson, my boss wanted me to apologize to you on his behalf. He deeply regrets being
upied with work and unable toe and pick you up personally. He intends to visit you on
another day,” Ron conveyed.
Aurora felt genuinely content with her future son-inw. “That’s alright. I understand that he has a
demanding job. He’s always so caring and considerate. I’m truly grateful for everything he has done
for me.”
Upon hearing Aurora’s response, Ron felt relieved and replied, “My boss will be overjoyed to know
that you are pleased with him.”
“As long as Estelle is happy with him, I am also content,” Aurora affirmed.
She then lowered her voice, asking cautiously, “Ron, does your boss’s family know about his
rtionship with Estelle? Do they approve of their rtionship?”
Ron smiled warmly and replied, “My boss’s parents have already passed away. His grandfather is
his only remaining family. Luckily, his grandfather is quite fond of Miss Hudson.”
“What?” Aurora was stunned. “Your boss... is not Tim?”
“No.”
“But...”
“Mom,” Estelle interrupted her. “I’ve told you that I really have nothing to do with Tim.” Property of N?)(velDr(a)ma.Org.
“So, the boyfriend you mentioned to me before is someone else?” It was not until then that Aurora
realized that she was mistaken.
“Yes.” Estelle nodded.
“Then who is he? What does he do?” Aurora asked.
“He...” Estelle bit her lower lip and didn’t know how to answer the questions.
Estelle couldn’t help but feel a tinge of sadness as she realized that she still didn’t know the true
identity of Mr. Mysterious.
“Say something, Estelle!” Aurora said anxiously.
With an embarrassed look, Estelle said, “Mom, I...”
As Estelle pondered how to respond to Aurora, Ron came to her aid at the perfect moment,
alleviating the awkwardness.
“Miss Hudson, my boss, mentioned that he intends to visit Mrs. Hudson personally and will reveal
everything about himself to her,” Ron informed.
Aurora breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this and smiled. “I see. It appears that he values
proper etiquette. Well, I feel relieved now. Just a moment ago, seeing Estelle’s reaction, I even
started to worry that my daughter doesn’t know her boyfriend’s name.”
“Mom, I’m not a little girl now...”
“You are always a little girl in my heart,” Aurora said with a doting smile, “Estelle, I’m relieved to
know your boyfriend is a good and sensible person. Invite him toe to our house for dinner when
he’s free.”
