The pressure became unbearable.
Finally, unable to handle it any longer, she forwarded all of Lucas's messages to Emily.
Emily, already overwhelmed with managing her adopted son and organizing the party, rubbed her temples in frustration.
"This is too much…" she muttered.
In the end, she had no choice. She revealed that she wasn't Miss Dawn but her assistant, so he could stop talking about his misery.
When Lucas discovered that Emily was Miss Dawn's assistant, everything clicked.
"So that's how it works."
As he dug deeper, the truth unraveled piece by piece.
Emily had been the one acquiring properties. She had purchased the company where Adam became CEO.
She had bought the studio apartment. The mall. Mary frequently visited the library.
She had invested in Adriana's workplace. She had connected him to Miss Dawn. And she had been funding Alex's company.
Every path led back to one person. Aurora.
Lucas closed his eyes slowly, a deep silence settling over him.
