Side Story: Attack (Extra Story)

Aurora wore a sarcastic smile. "Don't worry about it, Everett. Your fake concern is so nauseating I can barely stand it!"

 

She had spoken without thinking and immediately regretted it. If she angered Everett, Alexander would probably suffer even worse treatment, right?

 

Her gaze dropped, and she secretly watched Everett. He turned coldly and walked briskly out of the private space.

 

Huh…

 

He really just left like that?

 

Aurora couldn't quite believe it, but Everett truly didn't touch her again or seem angry in any way.

 

Everett returned to his seat and gave Tobias further instructions to make sure Alexander, who had been kidnapped, was found before Aurora left.

 

After hanging up the phone, Everett leaned back in his chair, looking exhausted.

 

For the first time, he was doing so much for someone else.
