Chapter 188 Engagement?
Aurora played dumb and smiled, “Mr. Buchanna, I don’t know what you are talking about, but it seems that our conversation can’t go on. You should think about how to explain it.”
Zac could easily think of a way to push her to the forefront.
She could also use the Swon family to make him restless.
Zac gave such a good project to the Bennet Group. Davis was not a fool. When he heard the news, he
asked Wenny to come over and ask about the truth.
In the business world, Aurora was much inferior to Zac.
But Aurora understood women much better than Zac.
“Zac, open the door,” Wenny shouted persistently. She almost smashed the door.
Faye, who came with her, pulled her carefully. “Come on! Keep your voice down. There are so many powerful people outside.”
“So what? What tricks did Aurora use to make Zac give her such a big project? How shameless is she! I have to…”
Before she finished speaking, the door opened from the inside.
Aurora looked up at Wenny, “Miss Swon, watch our tongue. Slander is a crime. Moreover, the lawsuit on your body isn’t over yet, right? Take it easy. Otherwise, the police will come to you again.”
Wenny was so angry that her face turned pale.
However, she was not as smart as Aurora and she was not good with words.
She could only watch as Aurora left.
Wenny turned around and rushed straight into the conference room. “Zac, why did you do that? Not only did you return that damn company to her, but you also gave her such a big project. Do you still have feelings for her?”
“Are you done?” The coldness in Zac’s eyes deepened.
Zac didn’t take the threat of the Swon family seriously.
However, Wenny was pregnant with his child after all. She was so noisy in front of him all day. He was sick of it.
“Zac, I don’t want to make a scene either, but if you get too close to Aurora, what will others think of me? Can’t you consider me?” Wenny lowered her head and shed tears.
She looked so vulnerable that Zac could not say any harsh words.
“It’s just business, nothing else.” He walked over and his tone was still calm.
Wenny sobbed a few times. She looked up at him shyly. “Really?”
Zac did not speak again.
“That’s good. On my way here, I heard that Aurora was about to be engaged to Terry. If there is any
scandal between you and her, it will affect your reputation.”
“Is she getting engaged?”
Zac slowly clenched his fists.
Wenny leaned in his arms and murmured, “Yes! When I came, I happened to meet Mrs. Walton. She said that she wanted to pick up Aurora to try the wedding dress.”
Zac was silent for a long time, and Wenny gradually stopped sobbing.
No man wanted to be with a woman that another man was sick of.
As a proud and outstanding man, Zac was the same. Aurora was not worthy of him.
Outside the entrance to the venue…
Terry pulled Aurora to Kate’s front.
“After Terry left the hospital, his dad and I missed you very much. You always said that you were busy. Why didn’t you come and visit us?” Kate took Aurora’s hand and said with a smile.
Aurora looked at Terry as if she was asking for help.
She rejected Kate’s invitation several times. It was mainly because she did not know what to say
after meeting them.
After thinking about it, she decided not to see them.
She didn’t expect that Kate would come here today.
“When will the conference end? I will wait for you here. You have to have dinner with us tonight!”
Kate liked Aurora even more.
Ever since the car accident, Terry began to focus on taking care of the family business.
This was what Terry’s parents wanted to see the most.
Perhaps everything was because of Aurora, so Kate liked Aurora so much.
Kate hoped that Terry and Aurora could get married as soon as possible.
The rumors outside were not important. The most important thing was that her son could work
hard. Moreover, she heard that when Zac married Aurora, Zac hadn’t returned home at all.
That marriage was invalid.
“I…” Aurora smiled and elbowed Terry from behind.
Terry grinned. “Mom, Aurora got a big project today. She will be very busy. We can have dinner together next time.”
In the distance, Zac sent Wenny off. The moment he came out, he saw them standing outside the
door and chatting happily.
Wenny raised her chin. “See! I wasn’t lying! Zac, you shouldn’t get involved with her in the future.”
She stirred things up.
There was no warmth in Zac’s eyes. After sending Wenny into the car, he turned around and walked
over.
“Ms. Bennet, our conversation wasn’t over just now.”
His face was as cold as an iceberg, and his tone was very pushy. © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.
Aurora knew that he was coming for her. She frowned. “Mr. Buchanna, you are a workaholic, but I have to rest.”
She talked back unkindly.
However, Zac reached out to pull her away.
Zac was always so domineering.
Terry instantly blocked his hand. He took two steps forward, separating Zac and Aurora. “Mr. Buchanna, you heard what she said. She doesn’t want to talk about it now.”
Even though it was business, Zac should give Aurora time to rest.
Moreover, Zac didn’t intend to talk about business at all.
“It has nothing to do with you.”
Zac furrowed his brows, and his tone was filled with anger.
“I’m Aurora’s friend, so it’s my business.”
Seeing that the atmosphere between them was getting weirder and weirder, Aurora hurriedly said, “Alright, Kate, let’s meet later.”
“Forget it,” she said and patted Terry.
Zac wanted to make things difficult for her, so he found different methods to torment her.
“Send Kate off first,” Aurora whispered and pushed Terry aside. When she turned to face Zac again, she put on a cold face. “What do you want to talk about? Let’s go.”
“You changed your expression so quickly,” Zac said through gritted teeth.
Aurora treated the Walton family and him so differently.
Aurora muttered something in a low voice. She turned around and went into the venue. According to the meeting process, they would stay at the hotel for four days and three nights.
The companies with the intention to cooperate would arrange a time to understand each other and push forward the progress of the project.
Even though Aurora did not want to see Zac, she would at least have to endure it for the next few days. She wanted to hire a few suitable employees to see what to do next.
She was thinking about this matter, so she ignored the cold pressure of the man beside her.
“Why is the Walton family looking for you?”
As soon as he entered the elevator, he asked coldly.
“It has nothing to do with you.” Aurora pressed the button and said in a bad mood.
“Are you really going to get engaged to Terry?” His eyes were full of scrutiny as he stared at her.
Aurora really didn’t know what he was thinking. Kate came to see her, and he was imagining such a drama.
However, she didn’t bother to explain it.
She didn’t need to say anything. Anyway, no matter what she said, Zac wouldn’t believe her.
She acted so indifferently, so Zac became even angrier.
“Aurora!”
