Chapter 534: Pained for love
Charles couldn't believe what he was hearing. He was very shocked.
"Why would you do that?’
"Because-/ Aurora's voice trailed off as she regarded Charles' expression for a moment. "What? I thought you would like it. Don't you?’
Charles' face fell. "I don't like this at all. I mean do you even know how dangerous working with Hercules is? It's very dangerous.’
He couldn't forget about what was currently happening to Avery or what might have happened to Aphrodite if he hadn't found her in time.
"It's very dangerous. I mean anything could happen at any time. The Mafia world isn't a place for ladies, talkless of people who are even unable to protect themselves/ Charles explained.
Aurora sighed. ’But I will be with you. You will protect me from harm.
Besides, all I would be doing would be running errands. I won't face these dangerous men."
Charles shook his head briefly. ’I won't allow it, Aurora. It's too dangerous for you."
Aurora pouted cutely. "Please^" she beseeched softly.
Charles shook his head stubbornly. "No, it's too dangerous,” he muttered and looked away.
Aurora hugged her and continued to smile beautifully at him, with the hope to change his mind.
Avery's heart made a sudden thud in her chest as she awaited the doctor.
Emma and Benjamin were beside her and rubbing her sweaty palms.
"You will be fine," Benjamin assured.
But Avery wasn't so sure. She was so scared. It was finally the day that she would enter the surgery room for the correction of her sight.
Though, the doctor said he wasn't sure if more harm would be done. And he didn't know if the sight could really be restored. The result of the operation was not known.
This was why Avery was very scared. She didn't know if she was supposed to leave the issue and battle with lost sight for the rest of her life.
Grey_ she has always thought about him. It was because of him that she was currently in the position she was in anyways. It was only a miracle that she didn't die instantly. Yet, she didn't know what type of emotions she was supposed to feel.
"The doctor said you will be fine. The success of the surgery is 80 percent/ she assured.
She didn't know that Avery already heard when she was discussing it with Benjamin about it. They thought that Avery was asleep and were conveniently discussing the issue between themselves.
Avery released a sigh. "I overheard what you and Dad discussed," she said suddenly.
Emma and Benjamin jerked back in shock.
