Still Loving You
At his residence, Lucas Fernando seemed to smile broadly at what he had done. Because he was hurt by being treated harshly by those closest to Aurora, he was furious and chose to take revenge for all of these actions.
For Lucas, it didn't matter if he couldn't get Aurora. At the very least, he had to make her regret for rejecting him outright.
Previously, Lucas had thought about what kind of revenge he should take. Until finally, he remembered something. At the reunion yesterday, Lucas had made a compromise with Cassie to meet and invite Aurora to have a serious talk with him.
"How about Cassie, did you manage to persuade Aurora to agree to attend the Reunion party this time? Come on, I beg you. I really want to meet her."
Cassie, who at that time was indeed in a cafe with Lucas, seemed to sigh lazily. From college days, he knew that the man in front of him really liked Aurora. It's just that, because he had to move to college, the man did not have time to express his love.
"Don't worry, Aurora has agreed to come tonight to the campus reunion party."
Lucas smiled broadly. Happiness immediately shone on his face.
"Then give me the address. I'll just pick him up this afternoon."
"Are you crazy?" exclaimed Cassie looking exasperated. "Aurora can get angry if you suddenly come and pick her up."
"No, Cassie. I'm sure Aurora won't be mad if I pick her up this afternoon. Didn't you say she used to like me too?"
"Yes, that was before. Who knows, now Aurora already has a boyfriend and doesn't care anymore about her former crush on you," Cassie argued later.
"That's why, we'll see how it goes later. Allow me first to pick her up and slowly approach her. Who knows, our relationship will continue and I can bring her to my apartment?" Lucas said then confidently.
Cassie chuckled. He knew where Lucas was headed this time.
"You are! Aurora is not a cheap woman like the friends you often sleep with. I'll bet, it's not easy to bring her to your apartment let alone until you manage to get her up on your bed."
he grinned. His self-confidence didn't fade one bit.
"We'll see. I'm sure I can beat it."
Even the matter of conveying his feelings, flirting, and even kissing Aurora had already been in Lucas' plan before the two of them met. In fact, had it not been for nothing, Lucas was sure he would have succeeded in bringing Aurora to his apartment to play. After all, he thought, no woman had been able to resist his advances.
Even crazier, from the start, Lucas assigned one of his friends, namely Orlando, to secretly document all the movements he made when he was with Aurora. It was his habit to always record for later collection, all intimate activities, even bedtime activities that he did with his date friends.
And now, Lucas smiled broadly. His unique habit is useful for him to use to knock Aurora down. Orlando, not just recording intimate scenes. The man even recorded all the events that Lucas and Aurora did while at the reunion. In fact, the fights that occurred were not spared in the documentation.
"You must be sorry for rejecting me, Aurora. At this time, everyone will definitely look down on you," Lucas monologues while sipping the wine in his hand.
"Now, just enjoy your destruction. Whether you want to clarify at all costs, evidence is already widely circulating that you enjoyed kissing me so much. After all, that is more than enough to prove the rumors of infidelity that you are carrying on."
Lucas just kept smiling. Satisfied with the achievements he has made. Exactly a few minutes later, Orlando seemed to come toward him.
"You really are crazy, Luc," said the man while sipping the cola he had just taken from the refrigerator. "By spreading news like this, isn't your name tarnished too? You could be accused of being a man who seduces other people's wives."
he laughed. From his relaxed face, he seemed the least bit unconcerned by the concern that Orlando raised.
"Screw the public for calling me a temptress, a philanderer, or whatever. I don't care. After all, Aurora will be highlighting here. It's not me. Why is she, who is already married and even turns out to be pregnant, instead playing crazy with other men."
Orlando shook his head repeatedly. He really didn't understand what Lucas was thinking at the moment.
"In that case, it's up to you. If anything happens in the future, I don't want to interfere. So, don't ever drag my name out."

In a different place, not Mario, but Tristan who looked angry after reading the news that Alexius had just shown him. How could he not be angry when he saw clearly and openly, a media reported that he even put up a tagline as if Aurora was committing immoral acts in a public place with another man.
What's more, it's not just one media portal that's reporting. After checking and exploring further by Alexius, there were several major media outlets that also spread this news.
"Mario ... what should I do?" Aurora squeaked in fright. He and Mario, who had also seen what was being reported, were confused about what to do. While Mario initially seemed to focus on thinking. Maybe find a solution what action he will do after this.
"You'd better calm down, Aurora. Everything will be fine."
"Mario is right, Aurora," added Tristan later. The man even deliberately got up to take a cup of drink and then gave it to Aurora. "Don't worry. I have already contacted some of the media. Whatever it is, I will do my best to pull out all the news that has been circulating. As soon as possible, I will also find out who has dared to do this."
Luckily Tristan has several colleagues and relations with several major media officials in England. It was not difficult for him to withdraw the news from circulation.
"I'm sure this was the work of the man I beat at your house yesterday, Tristan," said Mario then. "I'm pretty sure he's doing this out of revenge."
"Lucas?" great-granddaughter Aurora. Then not long after that the woman immediately shook her head in disbelief.
What exactly did this man want from him? In fact, Aurora had made it clear that she wasn't even the least bit interested, let alone intending to play with fire with her.
When Lucas came over, he had given a good warning. For God's sake, if this ends up being a big problem like now, Aurora vows she will never agree to Cassie's request to come to the Reunion and wait on Lucas to the point where she is now.
"That bastard really needs to be taught a lesson, Mario," Tristan chimed in. From earlier, he did look furious and excited to find out who was the mastermind behind this mess.
Mario nodded in agreement. If it was proven that Lucas was indeed the mastermind behind this uproar, he vowed to make the man regret it. It's just that, from earlier Mario seemed to be thinking, where do you think Lucas could get the immoral video, so he could spread it to the media.
"But, Tristan. How do you think that man got the footage? I mean, how come the moment is so precise? Because if you pay attention, the video that is spread in the media clearly shows the scene when Aurora and that man ----"
"Don't continue, Mario," interrupted Aurora, shaking her head. His face reddened with embarrassment again remembering the stupidity he had done. Aurora is aware that for her actions, her extended family will surely be scrutinized and become the object of gossip in the wider community. Really, where to put his face right now. "I really lost my pride for this incident. I'm sure everyone will sneer at me."
Mario sighed softly. Closer, then grabbed Aurora's body to then hug her. Rubbing his wife's shoulder gently. Trying to calm down while providing a comforting effect so as not to get stressed or drowned out by this slanted news, which will actually interfere with her pregnancy.
"Don't sweat it, honey. I promise to clear your name on this."
"How can it be clean, Mario. I'm sure everyone must have seen the news. My good name has been tarnished. Surely everyone out there thinks I'm a cheap woman who isn't the least bit loyal to her husband. I admit, this all happened because of my own fault. "
Mario does not deny this. Even if this news is withdrawn, it will still be difficult to clear the wife's name.
However, no matter what, he did not care. Mario is determined to continue to find out who is the mastermind behind this problem and then be taught a lesson for having dared to disturb the peace of his small family.
"You don't need to think about what other people say, Aurora. Most importantly, me and our extended family are always by your side. No matter what happens, we will all always support you."
"What Mario said is true, Aurora," added Tristan trying to calm down. "No matter what happens, we are always by your side. So, don't ever think you are alone in this world. Whatever it is, I personally will always help Mario to protect you."
Aurora looked touched. Grateful to have a husband and extended family who never stop providing support and assistance so they don't get worse in this problem.
Now, all he could do was pray. Hopefully what has been spread does not interfere with his life after this.
