Luna then gave Phyllis a call.
After making several phone calls in a row, no one answered.
What Luna didn’t know was that, Phyllis had already blocked her right after the incident at the hotel that day.
Hence, Luna was able to make the call, but no one answered.
“They must have planned this together!” Luna’s expression grew extremely unpleasant.
Had it not been for her good upbringing reminding her, she would have already thrown her phone out in
anger.
At that moment, Gideon called. After Luna finished speaking with him, she felt much relieved. She turned to Melanie and said, “Let’s go shopping today.
tomorrow.”
Melanie abruptly stood up. “Are we going to Quigley Group tomorrow?”
“Indeed: that’s what your father said.” Luna nodded in agreement.
Spencer was also somewhat excited, “Melanie, I’ll reimburse you for the clothes and jewelry you bought today.”
“Thank you, Spencer.”
Curtis had asked many people, but none of them knew where Aurelia was.
Due to the turn of events online, quite a few friends felt sorry for him, believing that he had been harmed by a woman who wouldn’t leave him alone.
Therefore, any news that was known would be relayed to Curtis.
Left with no other choice, Curtis could only reach out to Nancy.
Nancy was Aurelia’s best friend in Jacaster, so perhaps Nancy knew where Aurelia was.
When Nancy answered the phone, she was diligently preparing stew, not noticing who the caller was.
“Hello, Nancy. This is Curtis.”
“Who did you say you are?” Nancy put down her spoon.
“My name is Curtis, I’m Aurelia’s boyfriend. We’ve met before-”
“I’ve met countless people, so who do you think you are? Also, Aurelia doesn’t have a boyfriend!” Nancy quickly hung up the phone.
After glancing at the three characters of Curtis on her phone, she pursed her lips. “Teh! What bad luck!”
With a tap of her fair fingers on the screen, she blocked Curtis.

Sembags like you don’t deserve to be in my contact list! Don’t even dream of finding Aurelia through me!
Aurelia had been busy until five o’clock. NôvelDrama.Org content rights.
She spent some time catching up on the progress that had fallen behind over the past two days.
Upon secing Aurelia walk out, Chad handed her a cup of water. “Here, have some water.”
Aurelia took it and asked, “It’s five o’clock. Why haven’t you left yet?”
“I was waiting for you.”

Upon noticing Chad’s gaze on her, Aurelia chuckled and asked, “Is there something you’d like to tell me?”
Chad blinked at her. “Is it really that obvious?”
He indeed had something to say, but he just didn’t know how to approach the subject.
“Usually, you would have left by this hour. If there’s anything, just say it,” Aurelia said. She was quite fond of Chad.
“Well, I saw what they said online, it seems like your ex–boyfriend was wrongfully accused. Are you considering getting back together with him? I can’t help but say this, but one can’t get blood out of a stone. Even if he was the one being pursued, it was because he didn’t reject
Just the previous statement alone, accusing Aurelia of being suspicious and jealous, made him feel that Curtis was not worthy of Aurelia.
As a man, he should shoulder everything! What kind of act is it to push responsibilities onto a woman!
After drinking a glass of water, Aurelia still felt a bit thirsty, so she poured herself another one. With a radiant smile, she looked at Chad and said warmly
In her past life, there were people who spoke about Curtis, but she believed that these people didn’t truly understand Curtis.
And yet, she had been deceived by Curtis for over seven years.
Chad was taken aback. “Is it true?”
“It’s true when I say you have a promising future, and it’s also true that I broke up with that sc*mbag. Is there anything else you’d like to ask?” Aurelia ask
Originally, Chad thought he would have to launch into a lengthy discourse, citing examples and reasoning to thoroughly enlighten Aurelia, helping her dis
As a result, Aurelia herself came to recognize the true nature of that sc“mbag.
Suddenly, he didn’t know how to blow his own trumpet anymore.
Scratching his head, he said. “I guess I was worrving over nothing.”

“It’s certainly not your fault for worrying needlessly. After hearing what you’ve said, I’ve seen through the true nature of that se mbag, and it’s even more impossible for me to believe hi
Aurelia removed her apron and retrieved a package from the storage cabinet.
In Chad’s eyes, there was nothing but the bright, dazzling light of youth. “Really? That’s fine, then. I have so many young girls around me who are head

It seemed as though the fragmented light carried much within it, leaving Chad stunned.
He raised his hand to his chest. Why does it suddenly feel somewhat painful here?
“Are you really all right?” Chad asked cautiously.
“It’s all right. I need to leave now, I have plans with a friend at six.” Aurelia glanced at the time.
Chad blinked. He saw no trace of sorrow when looking at Aurelia’s fair face. Suddenly, he felt as if he had been overthinking. “Ah, I just remembered som
If Aurelia joins Grandpa’s team, I’d be able to see her frequently in the future!

Aurelia had already reached the door when she turned back to glance at Chad, “I’ve submitted my resume, but I’m afraid I might not meet the qualifications and expertise required by Team Gardner. Still, I want to thank you. I’ll be leaving now, see you tomorrow.”
“You’ll definitely… Chad’s words were left unfinished as Aurelia had already walked out.
His eyes flickered for a moment, deciding not to go home just yet. Instead, he would drop by a store to buy a roast goose, hoping to win his grandfather’s
It was imperative to get Norman’s approval to interview Aurelia.
As long as Aurelia gets the opportunity for an interview, Grandpa would surely be pleasantly surprised by her performance!
The place where Aurelia and Nancy agreed to meet was at a barbecue restaurant that had been in business. when they were freshmen.
The place wasn’t large, but it was economical and the food tasted great.
After graduation, when they came back to eat, most of what they consumed were memories and nostalgia from their university days.
The taste was j

No sooner had the two sat down than they were recognized by the owner.
“Did you all graduate from university?”

“Exactly, we graduated more than half a year ago. These past few days, I’ve been really craving the food from your restaurant. I drove for an hour just to come here and eat,” Nancy said.
The lady boss couldn’t contain her laughter. “Our shop is closing down, so you probably won’t be able to enjoy our barbecue anymore. Today, I’ll send ov a few extra dishes for you all, so eat your
Surprised, Aurelia asked, “Why are you closing down?”
“Our entire area is set for demolition, and in about half a month, we’ll all have to move out. Look, they say it’s land bought by the Quigley Group. Appare
Aurelia and Nancy looked over.
Upon seeing Matthew, who was cautiously conversing and seeking opinions while surrounded by many people, Aurelia was taken aback.
