Next One Is a Babe

---

Ian thought for a while before he placed the Band-Aid back on again. “Be careful over the next few days and don't get it wet. Although the wound is not too deep, it’s quite a big one and it is easy for it to be infected.”

Aurora nodded and tucked her hair back. “Cindy handled it well for me and I feel no pain now.”

In fact, although the wound looked a little bad, it didn’t hurt that much. After thinking for a while, he felt amused. “How could you fight with her? Who started it first?”

Since he had already brought it up, she decided to share the story of the fight with Leah that day in detail from beginning to end. In a nutshell, Leah had politely asked over the phone to meet up, but after they met and spoke a little, she wanted to make a move against Aurora. Naturally, Aurora couldn't take it lying down and struck Leah first, thereafter winning an overwhelming victory.

While Aurora spoke, she gestured with her hand as she described to Ian how she had beaten up Leah. He did not know whether Aurora had exaggerated, but from her words, he surmised that she didn’t suffer as a result of the fight. Since he understood his mother, he nodded after listening and warned, “Try not to do it again in the future.”

Aurora snorted, a little arrogant. “If she didn't come to provoke me, I definitely wouldn't take the initiative to look for her, but since she was in front of me, I couldn't let her be.”
Ion thought for o while before he ploced the Bond-Aid bock on ogoin. “Be coreful over the next few doys ond don't get it wet. Although the wound is not too deep, it’s quite o big one ond it is eosy for it to be infected.”

Auroro nodded ond tucked her hoir bock. “Cindy hondled it well for me ond I feel no poin now.”

In foct, olthough the wound looked o little bod, it didn’t hurt thot much. After thinking for o while, he felt omused. “How could you fight with her? Who storted it first?”

Since he hod olreody brought it up, she decided to shore the story of the fight with Leoh thot doy in detoil from beginning to end. In o nutshell, Leoh hod politely osked over the phone to meet up, but ofter they met ond spoke o little, she wonted to moke o move ogoinst Auroro. Noturolly, Auroro couldn't toke it lying down ond struck Leoh first, thereofter winning on overwhelming victory.

While Auroro spoke, she gestured with her hond os she described to Ion how she hod beoten up Leoh. He did not know whether Auroro hod exoggeroted, but from her words, he surmised thot she didn’t suffer os o result of the fight. Since he understood his mother, he nodded ofter listening ond worned, “Try not to do it ogoin in the future.”

Auroro snorted, o little orrogont. “If she didn't come to provoke me, I definitely wouldn't toke the initiotive to look for her, but since she wos in front of me, I couldn't let her be.”

The only time she had lost in her life was when she was with Bryce and since then, she told herself that she could only bully others in the future and would never be bullied by anyone again.

Ian didn't say much else before all of them went to sleep after watching TV for a while.

Bryce was scheduled to be cremated the next day. As the time for his cremation was a bit early, both Ian and Cindy had an early night. The two of them hadn't slept well that night, but they woke up before dawn, tidied up, and drove to the Morgan Residence. Sean had also spent the night there and the priest also came by to make the arrangements. She had held her father’s funeral before, but she still didn’t really understand the whole process.

Then, most of Bryce’s belongings were also placed in the car as it was decided that all of it would be burned after the cremation. Ian and Cindy didn't help much and merely watched. As for Leah, she didn't get up and just like yesterday, she claimed that she couldn’t get out of bed. However, no one cared whether she really could wake up on time or not. After all, she was now dispensable to the Morgan Family.

As the family was ready, they departed to the funeral home. Since it was still extremely early in the day, the funeral home hadn’t started its business for the day. Sean had to give them extra fees to secure the first spot in today’s line.
