Chapter 101

86:The pungent smell of disinfectant and the monotonous ticking of the EKG machine filled the silence of the VVIP treatment room in the suburban hospital. On the bed covered in stiff white sheets, Aurora lay helpless. An IV needle was embedded in the back of her pale hand, delivering fluids to counteract the acute dehydration she suffered from. Her face was still deathly pale, almost blending into the color of her pillow.Ethan sat in the chair beside the bed, his body slouched listlessly. He clutched Aurora’s cold hand with both of his hands, as if fearing that if he let go even a little, the woman would evaporate and vanish."Forgive me, Rory... I am truly a bastard," Ethan whispered, his voice cracking and catching in his throat.He pressed the back of Aurora’s hand against his cheek, letting his tears of regret fall and wet the smooth skin. His memory flashed back to the moment he mocked Aurora over the phone this morning, calling her insulting words that had now turned around t

87:The distinctive masculine scent of Ethan's perfume enveloped the luxury apartment unit on the top floor. Aurora sat leaning back on the gray velvet sofa, staring blankly toward the large window that displayed the sparkle of city lights that were beginning to turn on. Her body had indeed improved after the IV at the hospital, but her mind still felt like a tangled ball of yarn that was impossible to untangle.Ethan knelt in front of Aurora, holding both of the woman's hands gently. His eyes stared deeply, searching for certainty. "Once again I ask you, Rory... After all this, are you sure you choose to be with me? Leaving Daddy and all his luxury?"Aurora took a deep breath, her chest feeling tight. She slowly pulled her hands from Ethan's grasp. "I... I need time, Ethan. Please, don't force me to answer now. My head is still too noisy."Ethan fell silent for a moment, then gave a small nod with a facial expression that was slightly disappointed but still tried to understand. "Alri

88:The roar of Richard's car engine howled across the mansion’s courtyard, piercing the silence of the night with the heartbreaking screech of tires. Richard got out of the car, stroking around the hood with wide strides fueled by rage, and then wrenched the passenger door open. Without a shred of gentleness, he grabbed Aurora’s arm and dragged her into the house."Get in!" Richard barked as they reached the living room. He threw Aurora's body down so hard that she stumbled and her shoulder slammed violently against the edge of the stiff Chesterfield sofa.Aurora let out a small groan, pain radiating from her shoulder throughout her already weakened body. She sat huddled on the cold marble floor, her messy hair covering her face, which was swollen and bruised from the slap earlier. The tears she had been holding back since they were at the apartment finally broke into heartbreaking sobs.The commotion caught the attention of the servants. Claire and Hugo appeared from the kitchen, t

## Chapter 89The silence that enveloped the living room of the mansion felt so thick, as though the oxygen had been completely sucked out by the mounting tension. Aurora was still kneeling, but her back slowly straightened. She took a deep breath, a breath that was fraught with despair yet full of a painful honesty. She remembered the image of Ethan standing on the edge of the building this morning, an image that made her realize her greatest fear was not losing luxury, but losing the life of the man who was holding her now."Mr. Richard... I'm sorry," Aurora's voice came out with a violent tremble, but her eyes stared straight at Richard. "I'm truly sorry. From the very beginning... our relationship was indeed nothing more than a transaction."Ethan, who was beside her, froze instantly. His embrace on Aurora's shoulder loosened slightly because of the shock that struck him. "A transaction?" Ethan murmured, his voice hoarse and full of confusion. "Rory, what do you mean? What transac

90The crystal chandelier in the master bedroom of the Calloway Mansion was intentionally turned off, leaving a thick darkness, as dark as the mood of its owner. Richard sat on the edge of the bed—the very same bed where he and Aurora had spent the night he thought was the pinnacle of purity. He closed his eyes tightly, but the memory instead replayed like a broken cassette tape that tortured him. He remembered how his fingers stroked Aurora’s soft skin, remembered the shy moans he had taken as a sign of innocence, and remembered the red stain on the bedsheet which he now realized was nothing but a disgusting trick.Suddenly, the broad shoulders of the powerful man shook. For the first time in decades, Richard Calloway cried. Tears of anger and heartbreak flowed down his hardened face. He felt betrayed by his own flesh and blood and by the woman to whom he had almost given his entire world."Trash..." Richard hissed between his sobs, his voice hoarse and full of hatred. "You are trul

The car sped away, cutting through the rain, taking Aurora far away from the shadows of the mansion that had just spat her out.The atmosphere inside the black sedan suddenly turned silent, leaving only the sound of the wipers clashing against the heavy rain. Aurora, who was still wrapping her trembling body with the towel given by Audrey, suddenly straightened her back. Her swollen eyes stared sharply at Audrey who was focused on driving."Wait," Aurora interrupted with a hoarse voice, as if she had just realized something strange. "Audrey... you know the Calloway family? How do you know all my problems in such detail?"Audrey fell silent. Her fingers gripping the steering wheel seemed to tighten slightly, but she still tried to maintain her facial expression to remain calm. She took a deep breath, letting the silence hang for a few seconds before she finally dared to speak up."I... I am Ethan's personal secretary, Rory," Audrey answered softly.Aurora’s eyes widened, she almost dro

Chapter 107

91:The warm steam from the cup of chamomile tea slowly thinned, leaving a warmth that crept between Aurora’s still-trembling fingers. On the cream-colored fabric sofa, she tried to straighten her legs which felt stiff. Audrey sat across from her, crossing one leg over her knee, observing every single movement of the woman who had completely devastated her boss's heart."How is it? Do you feel a bit better?" Audrey asked, her voice breaking the silence of the room which was only filled with the ticking sound of the wall clock.Aurora nodded weakly, she placed her cup on the glass table with a soft clinking sound. "Yes... thank you, Audrey. If it weren't for you, maybe I would have fainted on the street earlier."Audrey stared straight at her, lines of anxiety still etched on her forehead. "Then, what is your plan after this, Rory? Do you want to go home to Boston? If you want to, I can drive you there tomorrow morning. At least your mother is there."Hearing the word Boston, Aurora i

Chapter 108

Two floors below him, in a room with a sturdy teak wood door, Ethan was raging like a wounded lion. He kicked the wardrobe until its door cracked, then slammed a flower vase onto the marble floor until it shattered into pieces."Damn it! Open the door, you bastard!" Ethan shouted while pounding on the bedroom door which was locked from the outside.His breath was ragged, sweat drenching the black t-shirt he was wearing. He tried to search for his phone in his pants pocket, but it was futile. Richard had ordered Sean to confiscate all of Ethan’s communication devices, cutting off all his access to the outside world, especially to Aurora.Ethan walked toward the balcony, looking down where two heavily-built guards stood watch alertly under the glare of the garden lights. Being inside this room made him feel suffocated. His mind was filled with a frantic anxiety thinking about where Aurora was right now."I have to get out," Ethan hissed, his jaw hardening with determination. He stared t

Chapter 109

92The atmosphere inside the guest bedroom of Audrey’s apartment suddenly fell silent, leaving only the subtle hum of the air conditioner and the steady sound of breathing. On the bed, Aurora was finally able to sleep soundly. Her face, which was previously flushed red due to her hysteria, now looked pale, with an IV line once again attached to the back of her hand. The remnants of tears were still drying at the corners of her tightly closed eyes.Audrey stood at the side of the bed, folding her arms across her chest while staring blankly at her friend. A few hours ago, this apartment was like a small hell. Aurora kept screaming, scratching the pillows, and cursing herself mercilessly until Audrey completely panicked and lost her way. In an overwhelming panic, Audrey finally decided to call Doctor Zen, a psychiatrist acquaintance of hers, who immediately administered a low-dose sedative injection."Why does your fate have to be this messy, Rory?" Audrey whispered softly, a tear escap

Chapter 110

92:The roar of the engine of Ethan's sports car sliced through the still-wet streets of Manhattan at an above-average speed. The beam of his car lights swept every corner of the sidewalks, the deserted bus shelters, and the dark storefronts. His fingers gripped the steering wheel so tightly that his knuckles turned white, while his eyes moved wildly to the right and left tirelessly."Rory, where are you...?" Ethan murmured, his voice hoarse and trembling inside the quiet cabin of the car.A tear escaped from the corner of his eye, flowing past his cheek which still felt hot due to the tension at the mansion earlier. An extreme fear crept crazily inside his chest, choking his lungs until he found it difficult to breathe. He imagined Aurora—with a weak physical condition and a shattered mind—wandering aimlessly all alone out there without a destination."I am willing to lose everything, Rory. I don't care about the inheritance, I don't care about Calloway Holdings, as long as I don't
