Chapter 1498

Aurora and Vicky were friends, and inviting Aurora to Vicky’s birthday celebration was a must.

Meanwhile, Noah, who shared a good relationship with them and was Vicky’s senior, should also be

included in the invitation list.

However, considering the strained relationship between Aurora and Noah due to the cat incident, it

became questionable if the two should be invited altogether.

Vicky pondered. “Let’s first ask Aurora and Noah. We’ll see how they feel about it.”

For her past birthdays, Noah avoided attending to avoid suspicion, but whether he should be invited at

all was a separate question.

Jennifer agreed with the idea and said, “Sure. I’ll call Noah later to ask.”

Jennifer, too, believed Noah might not come.

However, when Jennifer called Noah in the evening to discuss the matter, he asked, “Is Aurora going?”

Jennifer was taken aback. “I haven’t asked Aurora yet…”

“Ask her now.”

Jennifer knew very well that Aurora would most likely agree to come. However, she would not answer

without consulting the person involved. “Okay, I’ll ask Aurora.”

Jennifer called Aurora and explained her intention. As expected, Aurora readily agreed, “I’ll definitely go

to Vicky’s birthday!”

“Aurora, would you mind if Noah comes along?” Jennifer asked.

Despite their recent disagreements, Aurora understood that Noah had helped Vicky significantly. As he

was her senior, it was only appropriate for Vicky to invite him.

Aurora was not going to create difficulties for Vicky, so she replied, “He must’ve overestimated his

importance if he thinks he can affect my decisions.”

That was an indirect way of saying she did not mind his attendance.

With this answer, Jennifer called Noah again. “Aurora said she’ll be there.”

“Tell her to bring my black cat with her,” Noah requested.

Jennifer was momentarily rendered speechless but complied with his request.

Aurora, upon hearing this, was annoyed. “Why should I listen to him?”

“If she doesn’t bring it, it just proves she’s a cat thief! She might be mistreating my cat behind my back!”

Noah claimed.

Aurora retorted, “He’s the one mistreating the cat. Otherwise, Ruby wouldn’t have run away from

home!”

After a long exchange, Jennifer finally realized what was happening and suggested, “How about you

and Aurora have a separate conversation on the phone?”

Noah refused. “I have nothing to discuss privately with that cat thief.”

Jennifer was getting a bit frustrated, but she noticed the group chat on her phone and quickly

proposed, “How about I add you both to a group chat so you both can talk things out?”

Before, Jennifer had asked Noah about joining the group chat but was turned down when he learned

Vicky was also in it. This time, Noah did not hesitate and agreed right away.

“Fine.”

Jennifer added Noah to the group chat that consisted of only a few members: Vicky, Cece, Jennifer,

Harvey, and Aurora.

Noah immediately sent a message once he was added to the chat. [Hey, cat thief, bring my cat along

on Vicky’s birthday. If I find out that it has lost weight, I will report you to the police for animal abuse!]

Sometime later, Aurora’s reply was seen with no response but a few photos of a black cat instead. Its

fur was shiny, and it was clearly well-fed.

[Don’t even try to fool me with edited pictures.] Noah retorted.
