Aurora quietly finished her dinner. Her appetite wasn't bad. Her throat hurt a bit, but with plenty of water and her decent health, it should pass.
"No matter who you marry—rich or poor—a woman needs her own strength. If you're well-off yourself, it doesn't matter what he has. Even if you build a life together from scratch, that's still a valuable experience. And if he dumps you? Who says you can't find someone even better? Look at Wang Fei—she's never acted like some bitter ex. We can't see everything, sure, but on the surface, she's always kept it classy. That counts for something."
Dominic burst out laughing. "Aurora, not everyone can be like her though!"
Aurora calmly wiped her mouth. "Let's get our things together. We're leaving."
Dominic quickly set down her food. "Let me help."
"I'm fine. Eat first," Aurora said. She felt good—had even napped for about half an hour. Aside from cold symptoms, she was doing okay.
