CEO Is Chasing Ex-Wife Back novel Chapter 118

Chapter 118 1.5 Million Dollars, No Bargain
“My phone is broken. I sent it to be fixed.” Aurora was still in a daze.
“Do you know about Mr. Smith being robbed? He was injured and hospitalized. We are going to see him together. Are you going?”
“Robbed? When did this happen?”
Aurora frowned.
“Yesterday early in the morning, past twelve o’clock.”
It just so happened that when she left Zac’s house and was on her way home.
“Where am I going to meet up with you?” Aurora thought, gritting her teeth.
Then, she left home.
But what she did not know was that just five minutes after she left, her house door was opened.
“Move quickly, don’t leave any traces.”
“Yes!”
Twenty minutes later, at the municipal hospital.
Aurora met up with Mary and Owen at the entrance of the hospital. After listening to Mary talk about what happened, Aurora frowned.
After the shoot that day, nothing happened to Hale.
He returned to the company safe and did not tell anyone about what had happened between him and Aurora in his car.
But last night, he was suddenly robbed.
It was the police on duty nearby who sent him to the hospital.
“Theard that it was not an ordinary robbery. Mr. Smith only lost a watch which was worth more than 20 thousand dollars,” Owen said, “He still had cash in his car, but the robbers didn’t take it.”
“If something like this happens to Mr. Smit, he won’t be able to attend the weekend’s VK Show.”
“Is it possible that someone from a competition company deliberately schemed against him?”
The two of them let their imaginations run away with them.
On the other hand, Aurora had never been this clear headed.
That day, when she escaped from Hale’s car, it was Zac who took her away. Zac definitely knew what had happened. Last night, Hale was robbed by someone and was discovered by the police, but the police could not find any clues.
It meant that the person who designed this robbery accident was not only a mystery but also very powerful
It was very likely that it was Zac!
But Aurora did not understand why Zac did that? Was it because he wanted to help her?
Aurora followed them into the ward with a confused face. Anya and Anna were both inside the ward.
“Mr. Smith, you have to take care of yourself.” As soon as Mary looked up, she saw that Hale’s head
was wrapped like a beehive, and the iodine tincture had been applied around his eyes. Mary almost
laughed out loud.
Owen coughed and quickly changed the topic. “Mr. Smith, I hope you can recover soon.”
Hale glanced over. His body was beaten so hard that he was unable to move. His gaze fell on Aurora.
Anya said, “Mr. Smith needs to rest. You can go back first.”
“Alright, we should go.” Owen pulled Mary.
Mary kept her head down to control her laughter.
“Aurora, wait a moment. I have something to tell you.”
Aurora paused for a moment, then she saw Anya send Anna out too and lock the door of the ward.
“I didn’t expect you to be this capable,” Hale said.
However, his voice was no longer as pleasant as before. Instead, it was hoarse and cold.
The corners of Aurora’s mouth curled up. “Mr. Smith, you misunderstood me. I don’t have any power right now. What ability do I have?”
“You…” Hale was so angry that he gritted his teeth.
Anya walked over to hold him and whispered, “Let me say it.”
She patted Hale on the back, and Hale gradually calmed down.
“Mr. Smith being robbed is just a cover. In fact, he was beaten up. The person who beat him was
sent by Zac. Aurora, you should know about this!”
“I don’t know,” Aurora shook her head. She really did not know, just relying on her imagination.
Anya sighed, “Since we are talking about this, you don’t have to pretend anymore. These two days, Mr. Smith has been looking for you. He wants to have a good talk with you. What happened in the
car that day was not his intention. You must have misunderstood.”
A misunderstanding?
Aurora gasped in astonishment.
If that situation had been a misunderstanding, then the murderer wouldn’t have had to take legal
responsibility.
But Aurora quickly came to a conclusion.
Anya knew what kind of person Hale was, and she also knew the contents of the memory card. It was possible that Anya was also one of the female protagonists of the video recording.
Aurora frowned. She could not figure it out.
Anya was young, beautiful, and capable. Why was she involved with a person like Hale?
“Give us the memory card. You can also make a condition.” Anya’s attitude was very firm. Seeing
that Aurora was silent, Anya added, “If the matter blows up, your reputation will also be damaged. It doesn’t have to be like that?”
Hale lay in bed the entire time.
He only stared at Aurora with his pair of eyes filled with anger and seemed to want to kill her.
Aurora pulled over the chair in the ward and sat down directly. She looked at the two of them and chuckled, “Do people like me care about these things? You want me to name a condition, right? 1.5 million dollars.”
“Too much.” Anya seemed to have long thought that Aurora would say this.
“No bargain.” Aurora got up and was about to walk out.
Anya sighed and pressed on Hale’s shoulder. “I will go chase after her. You should rest first.”
“You must make that woman agree.” Hale was furious.
He had been looking for Aurora for two days, but Aurora seemed to have vanished from the world.
In the end, he was attacked last night. It must have been done by Zac! Hale secretly cursed. How could he be so careless and let Aurora escape?
The things in that memory card absolutely could not be made public. Otherwise, his life would be

Anya thought it would be difficult to catch up to Aurora.
But she saw Aurora stop at the vending machine at the end of the corridor and buy a drink for her.
“You are also one of the victims, right?” Aurora said lightly.
Anya’s body stiffened. She stared at Aurora, her lips trembling. “It has nothing to do with you. It’s useless for you to take the card. Give me the card, and I can help you get a reasonable price.”
Aurora took a deep breath. “Even 1.5 million dollars can’t buy your pictures?”
Anya was speechless.
“I didn’t want to make it public, nor have I seen it.” Aurora frowned and said to Anya. “Everyone has their own choice. I respect your choice, but I also have to protect myself.”
No matter what kind of feelings Anya had for Hale, it had nothing to do with her.
Aurora held the drink cup and walked past Anya.
When she walked out of the hospital, she saw Mary and Owen being stopped by a few paparazzi.
“We are just newbies to Malon. It is useless for you to interview us,” said Aurora.
Then, she pulled Mary away, and Owen hurriedly followed.
On the other side of the parking lot, Anna took a picture of this scene with her phone and then sent it to Wenny’s agent. “Ella, I find that Aurora seems to have a problem with our company’s chief designer…”
Seeing that Aurora’s expression was not right, Mary asked, “Did Mr. Smith make things difficult for you just now?”
Aurora shook her head.
The three of them sat side by side at the fountain.
Owen, on the other side of Mary, tugged at her, “You two chat first. I’ll go buy some food for you.”
Mary nodded. Seeing him walk away, Mary approached Aurora and said, “Do you think the relationship between Anya and Mr. Smith is abnormal? The company is now spreading gossip about the two of them.”
