Chapter 588
She would figure out the pros and cons soon enough.
After all, his mother–in–law was no fool, and after everything that had happened, everyone thore or less understood the
situation by now.
In fact, Grace immediately thought of Tessa.
But in front of Lucas, she still didn’t want to point fingers at Tessa
Tessa was her daughter in the eyes of the public.
It she joined others in criticizing Tessa, then what would happen te her daughter’s dignity?
No matter what Tessa had done, she was still her daughter.
And that sense of pride and protection was something Grace still cared deeply about.
With that in mind, she steeled herself and said, “I don’t know what you’re talking about, and I don’t understand any of it.”
Hearing this, Lucas couldn’t help but feel disappointed in Grace.
He had thought she was different now.
The fact that she made this call meant she must care about Aurora.
But after this entire conversation, it was clear that wasn’t really the case.
In the end, she didn’t care that much about Aurora.
In her heart, Tessa probably still mattered more than Aurora did.
That thought alone made Lucas feel it was all so unfair to Aurora.
She had poured so much effort into Walton Corporation, yet none of it was appreciated.
In Grace’s eyes, she wasn’t even as important as Tessa.
But what had Tessa really done?
If anyone had truly dedicated themselves to the Walton family, it was Aurora without a doubt.
But even though Grace knew it in her heart, she still favored Tessa more.
Lucas truly felt it wasn’t worth it for Aurora.
“Alright then, Mom. If you really don’t understand, there’s nothing more to say.”
With that, Lucas ended the call.
He only called her “Mom” out of respect for Aurora.
If it weren’t for that, Walton Corporation was just another company–he could easily bring it to bankruptcy.
But he couldn’t do that, simply because Aurora still held on to that home with all her heart.
No matter what, he would do everything in his power to protect that company, especially after getting to know Aurora, he understood just how much that company meant to her.
If possible, he wished she didn’t have to bear so much.
She was still so young, yet she endured so much hardship, and in the end, no one even seemed to understand her pain.

Lucas sighed, feeling a deep helplessness inside.
He stared at the tightly shut hospital room door, falling into silence.
Where had things gone wrong?
How did it come to this?
Everything had been fine before.
But then, like a sudden collapse, she fell ill, and it was as if she never got back up again.
Thinking about it, Lucas clenched his fists.
