Delusional Alexander!

On the other side, Veronica's blood boiled as she read Sasha's message. She was still recovering at home, nursing the swollen face that kept her from attending events with Alexander, and the sight of Aurora enjoying herself out there only intensified her fury. The thought of Aurora's now-slimmer face stirred a mix of jealousy and resentment in Veronica. How could Aurora be so bold now? She was once a mere puppet in Veronica's hands, a girl who danced at her whim. When did she start breaking free from Veronica's control?

The memory of how Aurora had handled her at the mall, and the court notice she'd sent, gnawed at her. Veronica's mind raced, especially with the thought of that delicate, flawless face of hers. What if Alexander saw Aurora's true beauty? Would he regret divorcing her? The idea made Veronica's stomach churn with insecurity.
