After Divorce, I Became A Queen novel Chapter 276

Chapter 276 The Man Who Took Notice

Karen felt a sense of panic as she met Aurora's piercing gaze.

"What do you want to see me for?" she asked, thinking about the things she had done in the past.

Aurora caught Karen's momentary guilt in her eyes and sneered, "Isn't it obvious why I'm here to see you?"

Karen grew increasingly agitated as Aurora approached her.

"I have nothing to say to you! Get out!" she shouted.

"I'm afraid I'll let you down." Replied Aurora calmly, "I haven't finished settling our accounts yet."

Karen had a sense of foreboding and she asked, "What do you want from me?"

Ignoring Karen's attempts at bravado, Aurora spoke directly, "Do you not realize what you've done? Do you have any idea how your father would feel if he knew his beloved daughter was involved in illegal activities back home?"

"You're talking nonsense!" Karen protested.

As more and more people began to take notice of their conversation and whisper amongst themselves, Karen tried desperately to maintain her composure and threatened her, "If you don't leave now I'll call security!"

Aurora chuckled coldly at this threat. It was clear that Karen had grown up sheltered and privileged, always believing that no matter what wrongs they committed they could get away with it unscathed. Unfortunately for her though, today wasn't going according to plan, since today she'd crossed paths with Aurora.

"Don't you remember what happened?" said Aurora slowly and deliberately as if passing judgement on a criminal case, "Why were you wandering around near Crescent Group's factory two days ago? Were the air quality levels better over there or something?"

Karen couldn't hold back anymore. Her legs were weakened by fright and she laid both hands on the table to support herself.

Then she thought of the surveillance cameras around the factory. She hadn't erased the records yet. However, she was still suspicious of Aurora's "accusation".

"Why I went there, what is it to you?" spat Karen indignantly, "Who are you anyway? Do I need your permission before going somewhere now?"

Aurora took two steps forward and then grabbed hold of Karen's wrist.

"You don't have to show your teeth and claws in front of me. I have enough evidence to prove that you were the one who caused this incident. You can be sent to prison!" said Aurora.

"Let go of me!"

Karen failed to shake her hand off and then yelled, "Who are you?! You live for seducing guys with your face! Let go of me!"

Then, a crisp sound startled everyone, with an unbelievable surprise on their faces. The burning pain in her face reminded Karen that everything just now was not an illusion, and suddenly she felt like she was going crazy.

"You slut dare to hit me! I'll make you pay the price!"

She struggled to fight back, but Aurora slapped her in the face again.

Looking at Karen's pitiful look, she said in a satirical tone, "So, are you cool now? Your father gave birth to you but didn't teach you how to be a good person. Today, I will act as a good person and teach you a lesson."

Karen was furious while covering her face. She started to stammer but was too vexed to say anything.

Aurora nudged her out of the way and said, "If you provoke me again, it won't be as simple as these two slaps. Go ahead and bet your life on it, if you want to sit in jail!"

She gave Karen a contemptuous glance before cutting through the whispering crowd to leave.
