Trash Husband, I'm the Top novel Chapter 186

The moment Aurora walked in, the smile vanished from Mrs. Quinn’s face. “You’re back?”

Eleanor lounged comfortably on the sofa, her tone airy. “Aurora, have you finally come to your senses? Are you here to talk some sense into Grandma?”

Without a word, Aurora strode forward, grabbed a fistful of Eleanor’s hair, and slapped her hard across the face. The sharp sound echoed through the room.
