His Purchased Wife novel Chapter 152

"Aurora?" Emily searched for her friend and just as Susan mentioned she was crying.

"Why are you punishing yourself and Susan like this, baby girl?" Emily asked, hugging her close to herself. Aurora sobbed in her arms like a child. "Stop this torture and talk to her Aurora."

Aurora shook her head in her arms. "No," she sniffed and broke the hug. "I have to be strict with her this time, Emily. I love her but she can't meddle in my business all the time."

Emily nodded. "What did you talk to Gabriel about? Did you finally break up with him?" She asked.

Aurora nodded. "Yes, it's officially over," She glanced at her friend. She wanted to share the happy news with Susan first, Aurora knew that it was going to hurt Susan. She also knew that Emily would share it with her, she was going to be their connection till Susan learned about her boundaries.

Emily sighed. "Look, I understand your point of view but you have to agree it's because of Susan you came out of that unhappy relationship."

" I am with Liam now. I accepted his proposal."

Emily gasped, her hand went to her mouth. "Are you telling me that you are marrying him?"

"No!" She replied astounded. "Of course, I am not marrying him this soon, I have learnt my lesson, Em. Although he proposed, I denied saying I want to date him first and not jump into the fire like before."

Emily shook her head. "I am happy for you, Aurora. I am so very happy for you, my dear friend," she hugged Aurora.

"Em, share this with Susan as well but don't let her know I asked you to do it. I know she wanted me to be with Liam. She would be happy to know this."

Emily rolled her eyes. "I don't understand any of you, here you are caring about her while she is asking me to take care of you. Why don't you just forgive whatever she did and spare me with all the hard work."

Aurora sighed but didn't bother with a reply. "Thank you for respecting my privacy, Em. Thank you for always respecting my wishes."

Emily felt guilty hearing Aurora. She wanted to tell her about the role she played in the conspiracy but she couldn't. Not when both her friends needed her but she promised herself that the day Aurora solved all her issues with Susan she would tell her everything no matter what punishment she decided for her.

"Keep her company tonight, I will be meeting Liam in the evening."

"Ooh! He asked for a date?" She teased Aurora who shook her head.

"No, this time I have decided to be the real me in my relationship, Emily. I want to see how he would handle my chirpy side. I don't want to pretend to be someone else. If we have a single chance of being together our whole life then Liam has to accept all the mood swings that come with me."

Emily shook her head. "I will pray for our boss then," she whispered and they both chuckled. Aurora was already missing Susan but it needed to be done.
