Chapter 70
Aurora felt she was going to have a headache.
She just told him to get out and he instead calls her to come along with him to lunch. Where were his senses? Does he have no brain to understand that she doesn’t want to see him?
“I don’t go to lunch with the likes of you” Aurora replied irritatingly.
“If you don’t want to come with me, then perhaps you will treat me to lunch whichever ways, I just want to be with you, ” Kushner Nick declared.
Aurora’s lips twitched, this fellow is simply shameless. He was determined to have her have lunch with him.
Either he takes her out or she treats him to it. Whichever option was acceptable to him. “You listen and listen well, I don’t want to be seen going around with you. And in fact, you disgust me. For the last time, get out!” Aurora yelled.
Kushner Nick squinted at Aurora. He likes this initial display of pride among ladies because he’s always the last to display his pride and that usually ends under the quilt.
He had always got to control the game. “We’ll meet again Miss Rowan and that’s going to be splendid!” Nick ran his tongue over his lower lip and winked at Aurora before stepping out.
Aurora frowned and eyed his back view as he stepped out. She sighed audibly and sank into her seat. Such a shameless fellow.
How boring to exchange words with him. It’s really pathetic to engage in an argument with a low IQ fellow like Kushner Nick. It’s really going to reduce the other fellow’s IQ.
She rubbed her temples and Suddenly felt unwilling to go for lunch. She called Wale Jones and ordered him to get her lunch.Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.
Same afternoon, in the President’s office of the Axel group, Jasper Milo walked him and saw the familiar hooded figure waiting at the window, looking at the busy bustling of the city.
There was a cigarette between his fingers. He had recently turned himself into a chain-smoker.
Jasper Milo had thought that after he found Aurora, his boss would return to his usual self but his temperament grew worse and his drinking and smoking habit also grew worse.
He didn’t know the outcome of his meeting with Aurora but knew it wasn’t a pleasant parting. President Axel didn’t tell him anything about it and he wasn’t willing to pry either.
He puffed out smoke from his cigarettes and watched it wreathling upwards into the sky. He knew Jasper Milo had entered and quietly waited for his report. He wondered why he stood behind and lingered in giving his report.
“Young master Kushner Nick sent red Roses to Miss Rowan earlier today and was seen stepping out of her office a few minutes ago”Jasper Milo paused, staring at Santiago’s back view. “I’ve delegated the bodyguards to take positions as appropriate”Jasper Milo concluded.
But Santiago was not interested in the later part of his report. His hand clenched into fists. His eyes became red as he gnashed his teeth.
How dare Aurora accept Roses from that rascal, or was he trying to get her attention? It must be the latter option, he knew Aurora disliked indecent men.
That pervert was trying to woo his woman and probably profess his false feelings to her. He must protect Aurora, he had lost her once because of his irrational decision but no more, he would watch and protect her from behind.
“We’re watching his every move boss and we’ll strike at the right time”Jasper Milo assured him. He knew Santiago was unhappy with the first part of his report. Without seeing his face, he knew what his facial expression was going to be like.
Many days passed and Santiago didn’t contact Aurora and everything seemed back to normal.
Aurora went about her normal life of working and spending time with her kids and family. Several flowers were sent from Nick but they all got rejected at the gate.
That act infuriates Kushner Nick and he momentarily stopped sending flowers to Aurora but was busy scheming on how to make Aurora Suffer same fate like other women who once tried to play hard to get with him.
Santiago shared his time between work, study and gym. Infact, he spends lots of time in the underground basement of his villa which was built as a gym.
He had a good statue but wants to remain fit. His bicep muscles had enlarged to match his broad chest. He was waiting for the time to strike while gathering enough evidence against Kushner Nick and protecting Aurora from behind. She mustn’t know he was watching her every move.
He had his bodyguards set their eyes on her and trail her secretly. He had also known that Aurora doesn’t accept his flowers and presents anymore.
Though Aurora rejects Kushner Nick, other young Masters and celebrities were coming after her but Aurora turned them down. She doesn’t go for outings or dating, deliberately avoiding those who ask her out.
These discoveries often make Santiago grin secretly.
Aurora knew Santiago was still in St Petersburg because Grey told her he had not returned. But why hasn’t he come to see her again after their encounter the last time?
Was he trying to avoid her and his kids? Aurora was anxious but kept it secretly in her heart and showed a lackadaisical attitude.
