The man kept approaching, forcing Aurora Blaine to step back until her back hit the half-open door behind her. Because of her movement, the door slowly closed, leaving only a small gap.
Maverick Knight couldn't understand why she kept backing away, he wasn't going to eat her, yet she was blocking his way.
He just wanted to leave.
Aurora stood behind the door, unable to hold back any longer, "You…"
Just as she was about to speak, suddenly, the door was pushed open heavily, catching Aurora off guard, and causing her to lean forward and fall toward the man in front of her.
Damn—
Aurora was shocked.
In that instant, Maverick Knight's first instinct was to dodge, but for some reason he didn't, instead he reached out and caught her.
The girl was very slender, holding her in his arms brought about an indescribable feeling, and a faint fragrance lingered at the tip of his nose.
Aurora ended up in the man's warm embrace, her nose bumped into his chest, causing her cute face to wrinkle from the pain.
At least I didn't end up eating dirt!
Then, voices were heard at the doorway.
"Aidan, this isn't right, what if they're doing something…"
"She's my fiancée now. Being in a room with another man and secretly closing the door, I…"
Aidan Sullivan didn't finish his sentence when he saw the scene in front of him.
The two of them were in an embrace, the man's hand around the girl's slender waist, the girl obediently nestling in his arms, appearing very intimate.
Aidan Sullivan was furious, "What are you doing?!"
What made it even worse was that they seemed perfectly matched!
Where does that leave his pride?
Aidan's voice brought them back to reality, nearly pulling apart at the same time.
Aurora's expression turned cold, "Who gave you the audacity to barge into my room?"
Having been caught, Aidan felt she was guilty and coldly laughed, "I was just downstairs while you were getting cozy with this pretty boy, do you really think I'm dead?"
Seeing that the two were about to quarrel, Isabelle Blaine was secretly pleased, had this wretch given up on herself already?
The last scandal was seen as a mistake, Aidan thought it might be a misunderstanding, but now he's witnessing it firsthand, there's no way to explain it!
Pretty boy?
Aurora glanced sideways at Maverick Knight, with that face, it seemed fitting.
"I'm telling you, as long as the engagement isn't annulled, you are still my fiancée!" Aidan stepped forward, looked at Maverick with disdain, and said: "Aren't you after money? Name your price."
Aurora had never seen someone so shameless; she was the one who used Maverick Knight and even lost his things, she couldn't let him be insulted by Aidan Sullivan.
Before she could step forward, Maverick spoke up.
"Not much, one Sullivan."
That simple statement stunned the other three present.
One Sullivan…?
Aidan laughed angrily, his tone sharp, "You really dare to say that."
Big words, isn't one Sullivan Group enough?
In Solara, the Sullivan Family was a prestigious household, one of the top five families!
Maverick's eyes were icy, "Why, is your fiancée not worth one Sullivan in your eyes?"
Is this the boyfriend that Timothy said is more charming than him?
Aidan's face turned ashen, "Knowing who I am, you dare to touch my person?"
Simply outrageous and ungrateful!
Maverick: "Why wouldn't I dare?"
