Chapter 44
Scott stood in plaer, watching as Aurora drove away, stunned for a long moment. Is she telling me to find Naoma to pick her up? What does the
It wasn’t until the white Auch disappeared at the end of the mad that be inapped out of it and took out his constantly vibrating phone. The name “Naomi‘ flashed on the sormen. He frowned unconsciously as he answered. “Hello”
“Didn’t I ask you to come Where are you now
Nammi soulded him. She had called Scor a long time ago, telling him to come over, but is
much time had passed, and there was still no sign of him in terms of the Sage family a house.
Scott was already ma bad mood, having had his car taken and now standing in the rain When he received Nam’s scolding on top of that, he couldn’t hold back any longer. His face darkened, and he replied in a low voter. “Do you think I have wings to fly over there?”
Naoma was taken aback, momentarily speechless at his words. She didn’t expect hum to dare to tort
“Scott, you think you’re all that now?” Naomi snapped T called you here to talk about Aurora, and instead, you’re throwing a tantrum. Why Are you looking down on me now that you’ve risen to power!”
Naomi was furious. Scott was a mere bodyguard but he dared to mock her. She gripped her phone tightly in one hand and pulled the blanket’s corner with the other.
After the meal, she returned to her room and didn’t know what was going on outside. She just felt a bit anxious as the right grew late. Scott had become insufferably bold. She had only urged him to hurry, yet he dared to directly retort at her.
He had become the heir, and now he was getting bolder
“Naomi you better have some self–awareness. We’re only aligned because we share the same goal. Don’t start talking nomani be to me” furrowed as a dark expression flickered across his face
He hated Naomi. If it weren’t for the circumstances, he wouldn’t have agreed to collaborate with her at all.
“So, you acknowledge that we have the same goal!” Naomi scoffed. “We’re stuck together in this mess now. We either live or die together”
Taking a deep breath, Naomi picked up a half–full glass of water from the bedside table, drank it in one go, and then asked. “So, when are you gelling here”
“I can’t get there. Aurora stole my car, Scott replied coldly, turning to glance in the direction Aurora had leh. Has expression darkened further. He was still a long way from the Sage family’s house. If he were to walk, he’d probably die from exhaustion halfwere
After a moment of silence, he added, “Get someone to pick me up. By the way, what’ve you been doing lately! How did you handle the Regal Club incident
“You ran into Aurora on the way?”
“Yeah. I stepped out of the car to explain the Regal Clubs situation, and she asked for the keys. I gave them to her, and she just drove of I’m stuck out here in the rain.”
The rain showed no signs of stopping, Scott surveyed the area but couldn’t find any shelter. Occasionally, cars drove by, but the most considerate they could do was slow down to avoid splashing water on him.
But it didn’t matter anymore. He was already drenched. Whether the cars splashed him or not, it didn’t change anything
Naomi fell silent after bearing his words. She recalled the earlier conversation over lunch and spoke with a dark look on her face. “She must have sensed something. During lunch, she said something about wanting to join the company”
That was the crux of the issue, and the had to take Aurora’s attitude seriously.
Maverick had turned around, initially intending to head back and pick up Aurora. But when he saw her pulling at Scott, a wave of discomfort surged in his chest. He spun the car around and drove toward the ishind. However, when he entered, he saw a middle–aged woman sitting on the
Her hair was perfectly styled, not a strand out of place, as if it would stay neat even in the wind. She sipped her coffee without turning around when- ale beard someone come in.
Maverick put the car keys down, changed his shoes, and approached her. “What are you doing here?”
The noblewoman glanced up and replied. “Can’t I come
She turned fully to face Maverick. It was his mother
“What’s the matter! Maverick asked.

Ruth glanced over her shoulder, then replied, “It’s your business if youre arguing with Aurora, but when is she coming back
Maverick answered. “I don’t know.”
When he left, Aurora was still with Scott. No one knew where they would go next.
His words made sense, so Ruth didn’t press further. It was still daylight, and she didn’t plan to go anywhere, to the felt reared. ‘Go take care of your business. I’ll stay here.”
The coffee was quite good, just the way she liked it. As expected, her son’s taste in coffee was impeccable,
Maveri, i nodded slightly and didn’t waste time. He told someone to look after Ruth and then went up to his study upstairs.
Meanwhile, Aurora, left behind, drove away from the scene. Her mind replayed the argument with Maverick. She felt she had overreacted. After all he just wanted her to spend more time with him, but she didn’t understand.
Not letting her work at Sage Group had felt like an obstacle to her, and communication had always been the key issue in their marriage.
As her anger subsided, her mood lightened. She couldn’t wait to return to the island and continue pestering her husband, hoping he would allow her to work at Sage Group. Only there could she get closer to Naomi.
