Chapter 650: No Public Statement!
Aurora couldn’t help but laugh a little. "Depending on a man’s money is never as reliable as having your own. No matter how rich he is, the money’s still his—not yours. If you’re capable, even after a divorce, you can still live well on your own."
Dominic nodded. "You’ve got a point. But still, isn’t marrying a rich guy better than marrying a broke one? Imagine struggling with a poor man, ending up worn out and dull, and then he dumps you for some younger woman... Wouldn’t that be soul-crushing?"
Aurora frowned. The topic was a bit heavy. If an average guy overheard Dominic’s "wisdom," who knows if he’d be angry or just crushed.
Aurora quietly finished her dinner. Her appetite wasn’t bad. Her throat hurt a bit, but with plenty of water and her decent health, it should pass.
"No matter who you marry—rich or poor—a woman needs her own strength. If you’re well-off yourself, it doesn’t matter what he has. Even if you build a life together from scratch, that’s still a valuable experience. And if he dumps you? Who says you can’t find someone even better? Look at Wang Fei—she’s never acted like some bitter ex. We can’t see everything, sure, but on the surface, she’s always kept it classy. That counts for something."
Dominic burst out laughing. "Aurora, not everyone can be like her though!"
Aurora calmly wiped her mouth. "Let’s get our things together. We’re leaving."
Dominic quickly set down her food. "Let me help."
"I’m fine. Eat first," Aurora said. She felt good—had even napped for about half an hour. Aside from cold symptoms, she was doing okay.
As Aurora started tidying up, Tobias strolled in slowly. "Miss Wilson, the young master asked me to give you this phone."
Aurora looked up. The phone in Tobias’s hand was sleek, all white—elegant and stylish.
