Internet Breaking: The Powerful CEO Reveals His Supermodel Wife-Chapter 582: Killing Intent

Today’s report and Poe Vaughn’s phone call are all good news for Lauren Howell.

Lauren is very happy and excited.

However, Eric isn’t feeling any of these emotions; she’s not only unaffected, she’s worried.

This tightens Lauren’s heart, fearing something bad might happen.

Eric furrows her brows, listens to Lauren, and looks at her: "I know what you’re thinking, but you probably don’t understand Celestial Holdings’ CEO, don’t understand The Vaughn Family."

"I’m worried about Ava getting hurt."

These two straightforward sentences make Lauren’s face turn pale.

Indeed.

The Vaughn Family, the bigwigs of Celestial Holdings.

With such status and power, could they really like Ava?

And even if they really liked her, how long would that affection last?

At this moment, Lauren isn’t happy at all anymore.

And at this time, there’s another person who’s not happy either.

This person is none other than Aria Rhodes.

At this moment, at the Rhodes Family.

No, to be exact, at The Ackerly Family.

The villa that used to belong to Hayden Rhodes is now Ronia Ackerly’s. The moment Hayden signed the agreement with Ronia, he had no more ties with her.

He was watched by the Rhodes Family members and forced to sign a divorce agreement and went to the civil affairs bureau to complete the divorce proceedings.

He’s now a loner, unable to have any dealings with Ronia, Aria, or Julian Rhodes.

Otherwise, the Rhodes Family wouldn’t be polite to him.

This time, Ronia had provoked the wrath of the Rhodes Family, and there’s no way they would indulge them anymore.

Hayden was very clear about this.

So, no matter how unwilling he was, he hadn’t contacted Ronia anymore, nor with their two children.

But fortunately, Ronia and the children got a substantial share of the property, which could ensure they lived the rest of their lives without worries.

This was his only comfort.

And logically, after Julian returned, Ronia and the others should leave Aurelia. They shouldn’t appear in Aurelia again. But they didn’t leave, Ronia didn’t leave, Julian didn’t leave, and neither did Aria.

Aria didn’t leave for a simple reason: to get close to Poe Vaughn.

She couldn’t possibly stay away from Poe Vaughn.

And Ronia didn’t leave because she wasn’t willing for things to end this way with Hayden. She was unwilling to give up.

As for Julian, he simply couldn’t accept that after going abroad and returning, everything had turned upside down.

He was just set up and deceived, why did everything change because of just this one thing?

Grandfather was hospitalized, father was hospitalized, parents divorced, property divided, he no longer had the last name Rhodes, but Ackerly instead.

He couldn’t accept, refuse to accept what happened in just a few short days.

For this reason, he went to the hospital to see the Rhodes Family members, asking them why they treated them this way, why they were so cruel.

Although Julian was over twenty, in the eyes of the Rhodes Family, he was just a young boy.

And he indeed had an immature temperament, causing a big scene at the hospital, demanding justice for his mother.

He knew the Rhodes Family didn’t accept his mother; when his parents were happily married, he was young and ignored it, but now, the Rhodes Family forced his parents to divorce, and he’s a man now, so he naturally couldn’t let the Rhodes Family humiliate his mother like this.

However, how could he fight the Rhodes Family?

Moreover, it was originally Ronia’s fault, not the Rhodes Family’s.

The Rhodes Family quickly presented hard facts one by one, letting him know what his mother had done all these years, whether it was the Rhodes Family that wronged his mother or that his mother herself lacked virtues.

Julian wasn’t brainless; he was just hot-headed and spoiled by Ronia to the point of being unrestrained.

He wasn’t inherently bad either; he knew right from wrong, knew what could be done and what couldn’t be done.

After the Rhodes Family presented evidence of what Ronia did, Julian couldn’t say a word.

Because he knew his own mother.

For them, his mother would do anything.

And this time, to save him, his mother angered his grandfather into the hospital, and she was still unrepentant, causing a scene at the hospital.

Luckily it was the eldest brother, otherwise, who knows what would have happened to grandfather.

He knew the Rhodes Family didn’t like him, grandfather didn’t like him either, but them disliking him didn’t mean he wanted them to die.

They were still his relatives, related by blood.

He was also very worried when grandfather was hospitalized, but he more hoped the Rhodes Family could understand his mother and not treat her so harshly.

In his heart, his mother was a good mother.

But, when the Rhodes Family laid out all the excessive things his mother did for him and his sister, one by one getting worse towards the end, he knew that this time the Rhodes Family was truly furious.

They couldn’t tolerate it any longer.

He fell silent, became dejected.

After returning from the hospital, he locked himself at home, not eating or drinking.

This made Ronia very worried.

Originally, Ronia was thinking of how to restore her relationship with Hayden Rhodes.

Now that Julian had returned safely, she naturally wanted to restore everything.

She racked her brains to think of various ways, she absolutely couldn’t let her years of efforts go to waste.

And Julian throwing a fit at the hospital was something she had acquiesced to.

She also wanted her son to cause a scene at the hospital to see the situation, to see the tolerance level of the Rhodes Family, so she could plan afterwards.

But unexpectedly, after going to the hospital, her son came back and locked himself in, not eating or drinking, just like when he sought out Poe Vaughn that year and returned, completely silent.

This worried Ronia greatly.

Her thoughts briefly shifted from Hayden and the Rhodes Family to focus on her son.

In her heart, her son was the most important.

And Aria paid no mind to the two of them; she was very dissatisfied that Ronia and Julian were still in Aurelia.

She was afraid that Ronia and Julian’s presence would affect her getting close to Poe Vaughn, but she couldn’t say anything, so she could only persuade them, persuading them every day.

She tried persuading one and then the other but couldn’t convince either.

In the end, she couldn’t be bothered anymore, and started thinking about how to get into Celestial Holdings, trying to find ways to distance herself from the two potential drags on her progress.

Yet, at such a time, early this morning, just as she woke up and was freshening up, she received a call from a friend.

The friend told her something that was enough to shatter all her perceptions.

Poe Vaughn was with another woman.

Yes, another woman.

Not her, Aria Rhodes, but a notoriously disreputable model, maligned by the entire internet.

Ha!

A minor model, a woman with an inferior background, education, and everything compared to herself, actually dared to stand beside him.

How dare she!

At this moment, Aria Rhodes, holding the phone, looking at the video of Ava Sterling kissing Poe Vaughn, clenched her fingers until they cracked, her eyes filled with a terrifying murderous intent.

For the first time, she wanted to kill.

Yes.

She wanted this woman to disappear, completely disappear from this world!
