Judy was satisfied to see the smile return to his face.
On the surface, she looked sweet and admiring, but deep down, she felt nothing but disdain.
He was just that easy to read.
His likes and dislikes were practically laid out in the open.
There was no need for guessing games.
A few simple words, and he was already grinning like a fool.
In that sense, she was rather pleased.
Sure enough, the moment she softened her stance, he didn’t know how to react.
He scratched his head, even starting to wonder if he was really as great as she made him sound.
Something about it didn’t sit right, especially after everything that had happened, he couldn’t shake the feeling that she was just playing him.
But he had no proof and no idea how to bring it up.
“Alright then, if that’s how you feel. I’ll let it go.”
She’d shown so much concern–if he kept pushing, wouldn’t that make him seem ungrateful?
Besides, she was still here, by his side.
He could have her whenever he wanted.
Why get hung up on this one molewa?
Once that clicked, he started to see her differently
That earlier awkwardness disappeared
Now, she looked better than ever
She tugged him along and led him out of the room.
This was still her studio, after all.
Doing something like that inside had already been a stretch
There were plenty of employees just outside.
Staying in there any longer wouldn’t be appropriate
He glanced at her profile and felt himself relax
Clearly, he’d been overthinking everything.
Wasn’t her attitude toward him just fine now?
He’d been overthinking things before.
There was nothing wrong with her at all
by ate you so eager for me to go after Aurora?”
Chapter 502
She seented more anxious than he was to bring Aurora down.
Before this, she’d never been like that.
He didn’t know what had changed, but now, her resentment toward Aurora felt even deeper than his.
It wasn’t like this before.
Hearing his question, Judy rolled her eyes.
Seriously? After everything he’d been through, how could he still this clueless?
Didn’t he understand the concept of striking when the iron’s hot?

She’d told him more than once–now that Aurora was unwell, it was the perfect time to deal a heavy blow to Walton Corporation.
If they missed this window, there might not be another chance.
She had explained this to him again and again.
Why was he still hesitating?
Why couldn’t he just act on what she said?
Judy took a deep breath and tried to swallow her growing impatience.
Why hadn’t she noticed before just how slow–witted he was?
She’d repeated herself countless times, and still, nothing stuck.
The only reason she hadn’t lost it yet was because he was still useful for now.
That was the only thing keeping her from snapping.
She’d made enough excuses for him already.
At this point, she was starting to realize that maybe he wasn’t clueless.
Maybe he was just playing dumb on purpose.
