The Ex-Wife's Burning Elegance novel Chapter 2134

Hearing her explanation, Joshua's tone softened slightly.

"It seems I misunderstood you. In that case, let's meet when you're free next time."

Aurora felt helpless, but there was truly nothing she could do.

...

A week later, deep into the night, the vibration of Aurora's phone woke her up once again.

Glancing at the name on the screen, she fought the sudden urge to hang up.

As she debated whether to decline or answer, McCoy, who was lying next to her, finally broke the silence.

"Aurora, have you been really busy lately?"

She turned her head, surprised to find him already awake.

Her voice was soft. "Did I wake you?"

McCoy didn't answer. He simply looked at her.

"You've been getting a lot of calls in the middle of the night lately, and sometimes you even head out.

What exactly are you busy with? Or rather, who are you going to see?"

McCoy was usually a gentle, easygoing man who gave her plenty of trust and personal space.

He knew she frequently participated in car races and had always supported her.

When he had free time, he would even show up in person to cheer her on.

He rarely questioned her like this.

Aurora knew her recent behavior had been highly unusual.

She had been so preoccupied with dealing with Joshua that she had temporarily neglected McCoy.

She was desperate to pull Joshua to her side, to get him to help her.

And to win him over, she needed to build a connection with him first.

However, her few attempts to meet with him had all fallen through due to unforeseen accidents.

Aurora was growing anxious.

She hadn't ruled out the possibility that Joshua was doing this on purpose.
