Not far away, Aurora saw Avery talking to Tyler and could not help but whisper, “It’s her.”

Vicky turned her head to look at Aurora. “Do you know her?”

Aurora nodded. “Her name is Avery Yeager. She is Lincoln’s fiancee.”

Vicky furrowed her brow slightly.

She had heard rumors about Lincoln’s fiancee. Though she did not know the girl’s name, she knew she belonged to the prestigious Yeager family, whose background was no less impressive than the Hart family.

Rumors had it that Valencia hastily arranged a fiancee for Lincoln who could provide support out of fear biological son, Tyler, would threaten Lincoln’s position, and Lincoln had accepted the arrangement obediently.

Aurora’s voice rose again. “Speaking of which, the Yeager family is even more powerful than mine. Being engaged to Lincoln is considered marrying down a class, I suppose.

Although the Hart family is also a top-tier aristocratic family, Lincoln’s status as an adopted son is somewhat inferior when compared to Avery. At the time when the engagement was proposed, many people gossiped about it and criticized Lincoln as a freeloader, calling him a boy toy. Some even openly mocked him…” 1

Aurora paused for a moment and lowered her voice.” Despite the ridicule and humiliation, Lincoln remained calm and maintained his gentlemanly demeanor. Despite being targeted by some young masters who had long held grudges against him, he didn’t show a hint of annoyance or inferiority… That’s when I realized that the Second Young Master of the Hart family isn’t some ordinary man. Before

long, he actually got engaged to Avery. My father told me that Lincoln is a resourceful and courageous man, far from the mediocre person he was rumored to be. With the help of the Yeagers, he grew stronger. In just a few years, he firmly established himself in the Hart family, and his position became unshakable even though he is an adopted son.”

Vicky furrowed her eyebrows and asked, “I’ve heard Missus Hart and Lincoln mention the matter of breaking off the engagement with Miss Yeager multiple times. What’s the story behind it?”

Aurora looked around to make sure that no one was paying attention before whispering, “Six months ago, Avery was exposed for having a scandal with a man at a nightclub, and it caused a huge uproar in our community… The news lingered for a week before it was finally suppressed completely. The Hart family is a well-respected and influential family after all, and they couldn’t tolerate such a scandal involving Avery, so Missus Hart wanted to break off their engagement. With Avery’s reputation ruined, once Lincoln breaks off the engagement, I’m afraid not there won’t be a single eligible bachelor willing to marry her. The bigger the family, the more they care about their reputation.

After all, the scandal of her messing around with guys became public knowledge. Even if she does have a promiscuous private life, there are still a lot of guys who’d marry her so long as her lifestyle is kept a secret. Once it’s been exposed to the public, no noble family will tolerate accepting a woman with a ruined reputation into their family.

“That’s why the Yeagers have been dragging this matter on and responded to the Harts’ request to call off the engagement. I guess the Yeagers have been searching for evidence to clear Avery’s reputation during this time. I don’t know if she’s managed to clear her name, but…” Aurora looked at Vicky with a serious expression. “Avery isn’t someone to be taken lightly. The Yeagers have been fighting amongst themselves lately, but Avery remained standing throughout everything and is highly regarded by the family. When Lincoln took you to Missus Hart’s party and introduced you as his girlfriend, Avery

might’ve caught wind of that.” Aurora paused and continued, “She looks harmless, but you never know what goes on inside her head. You need to be careful, Vicky. She might come after you.”

Vicky nodded. “Thank you. I will be careful.”

After a few moments of hesitation, Aurora added, “A huge part of why Avery picked Lincoln as her fiance was because she liked his face… She really likes handsome guys, and looks are her priority.”

Any sane person would favor whatever was easy on the eyes, and it seemed normal for a woman to like handsome men.
