Diego Morales was like a wolf whose tail had been stepped on, cursing angrily.
"Useless thing!"
"What nonsense are you talking about!"
Catalina López quickly grabbed Aurora Morales, gently shook her head at her, indicating not to have an intense argument with her father.
"Sure enough, she's been in the countryside for too long!"
"Even if she returns to the big city, she's still a rude and disrespectful person at heart!"
"Is this how your grandmother taught you before she died?"
Aurora Morales' eyes gradually lost their warmth.
"Weren't you also from the countryside?"
"What, has a pheasant forgotten what it really is after staying in a phoenix's nest for too long?"
Diego Morales' eyes widened, his chest heaving violently. He raised his hand and slapped towards Aurora Morales' face!
"Is this how you talk to me?!"
Aurora Morales dodged his hand.
"If I could choose, I really wish you weren't my father."
Diego Morales was so angry that his whole body was shaking.
"Aurora Morales, I'm telling you! You and I have an inescapable blood relationship!"
"You're a daughter of the Morales family! You should do things for the Morales family!"
Aurora Morales let out a long "oh".
"I guessed it long ago. There must be some purpose for asking me to come here today."
Catalina López looked at Diego Morales in surprise.
"Master?"
Diego Morales didn't even glance at her. He continued to say to Aurora Morales, "Yes, I do have something to ask you. Since you've married Ricardo Vargas, you're the eldest young mistress of the Vargas family. The company is having some problems with its operation again recently. The funds Ricardo Vargas provided are still not enough. Go get some more."
Aurora Morales' eyes swept briefly over Valentina Morales.
"Isn't there still Valentina?"
"Do you have to squeeze money out of me, the only 'cash machine'?"
When Valentina was mentioned, Diego Morales' attitude changed completely.
"Your sister's relationship with Javier Fernández isn't very stable yet! How can we ask for such a large sum of money so casually? When Valentina gets married, it will affect how her in - laws view her!"
"Aren't you afraid that the Vargas family will have an opinion of me?" Aurora Morales asked coldly.
Diego Morales didn't care at all.
"So what if they do? Ricardo Vargas couldn't find a wife easily anyway, and you two won't get divorced. What are you afraid of?"
A faint smile appeared on the corner of Aurora Morales' lips.
What was she still expecting?
To expect that her father still had some affection for her?
"I won't give you a single cent more. The company's affairs have nothing to do with me." Aurora Morales said straightforwardly.
"How dare you! Do you want to watch the Morales family go bankrupt?" Diego Morales couldn't believe this little wretch was so disobedient.
Aurora Morales looked into his angry eyes, speaking each word clearly.
"Bankrupt? So what? What does it have to do with me?"
"Did I eat your food or drink your water before I was eighteen?"
Diego Morales growled, "You... you heartless thing!"
Aurora Morales' eyes sparkled like stars as she stared intently at him.
"You brought back the daughter who had been wandering outside for eighteen years, and then sold her to the Vargas family for 50 million.
"You've ruined the property my mother left behind to what it is today, and you've made Valentina your only legal heir.
"When it comes to being heartless, I really can't compare to you.
"What does every penny of the Morales family have to do with Valentina?"
Diego Morales was at a loss for words, then he continued, "You're already married. Isn't the huge fortune of the Vargas family enough to satisfy your vanity?"
"Doesn't Valentina need to get married?" Aurora Morales said sarcastically. "With her relationship with Javier Fernández, it shouldn't be a big problem to get a few million easily, right?"
Valentina Morales bit her lower lip gently, looking at her with a very aggrieved expression.
"Sister, Javier brother is working hard to save money to marry me.
"The Fernández Group can't compare to the wealthy Vargas family. Every penny has to be spent wisely to prepare for our future."
Aurora Morales seemed to suddenly understand.
"That's right. After you marry Javier Fernández, you won't even look at this small Morales family.
"Moreover, father isn't good at doing business.
"He's been in charge of the company for so many years, and the accounts are only in deficit. Not to mention investing a few million or tens of millions, even if you throw in a hundred million, it will probably end up in a complete loss."
"Sister is really smart. You must have known that this money would be wasted in a bottomless pit long ago."
Her sharp words left Valentina Morales a bit stunned.
She looked at her father in a panic and quickly explained.
"Dad, that's not what I meant..."
Diego Morales interrupted her decisively.
"Of course I know that's not what you meant.
"It's clearly this little witch Aurora Morales who's trying to stir up trouble!"
A resentful look flashed in Valentina Morales' eyes.
"Sister, when the Morales family is in trouble, as the eldest daughter of the Morales family, what's wrong with you contributing? For you, tens of millions isn't a difficult thing, right?"
"Even if you don't want to ask Ricardo Vargas for it, you can ask your sugar daddy. With his love for you, he surely won't care about such a small amount of money!"
Diego Morales became more and more confused, frowning tightly. "What sugar daddy?"
Valentina Morales took his arm, raised her chin provocatively, and exposed Aurora Morales' secret. "Dad, you don't know, do you? Sister has been getting very close to a man recently. That man is extremely generous. He sends boxes and boxes of jewelry worth millions to sister. This matter has spread like wildfire in Javier brother's company."
Diego Morales' eyes gradually lit up.
"Really? Then our Morales family is saved!"
"Aurora Morales, transfer ten million to my account as soon as possible!"
Aurora Morales said coldly, "What if I don't?"
Diego Morales threatened her, "How dare you! Do you want this matter to be known by the Vargas family?
"You know the reputation of the Vargas family! If you annoy the Vargas family, not only your sugar daddy, but no one can save you!"
Aurora Morales wasn't afraid at all. She sat there calmly, with a faint smile on her lips. "Then you can give it a try."
Seeing Aurora Morales' confident attitude, Diego Morales couldn't help but feel a little hesitant. Could it be... that Aurora Morales had really found a powerful backer who wasn't afraid of the status of the Vargas family?
"Stop!"
Catalina López, who had been holding back, finally couldn't take it anymore and spoke up.
"Didn't you say you missed Aurora, so you asked me to call her back?
"We finally got the family together, but as soon as we meet, we start arguing non - stop!"
"The Vargas family is such a big family. It's already a huge challenge for Aurora to integrate into it. Can you stop forcing her?"
"Let's leave the money matter to Valentina."
"I think Javier Fernández treats you pretty well. He'll probably be willing to help."
Valentina Morales bit her lips unwillingly, stamping her feet in anger. "Mom! Why are you taking Aurora Morales' side?"
Before Catalina López could answer, the butler, Don José, rushed in.
"Master, Madam, Mr. Javier is here."
