Testing the Waters

Eric noticed Ella's gaze and turned his head slightly, his expression calm. That's when he saw Aurora walking in with her assistant, Dominic.

 

Eric furrowed his brows. Ella was already in a bad mood, and now Aurora had suddenly appeared—what was her purpose? If she ended up upsetting Ella, he honestly wouldn't mind blacklisting her for good.

 

"Mr. Nelson, Mrs. Nelson, I've been looking for you two for so long. I finally found you!" Aurora wiped the fine sweat from her forehead with a handkerchief. Considering how cold the weather was, she must have been searching really hard to be sweating like this. Her effort was almost admirable.

 

"Miss Wilson, do you need something?" Ella asked indifferently. Though she had once argued with Eric because of her, thinking back now, it seemed rather ridiculous.
