Chapter Thirteen: Going Against my Will, This is Your Fate!

Maverick strode into the reception room, his tall figure exerting a suffocating pressure on everyone in the room, creating an atmosphere of unease.

When Maverick's gaze swept towards Aurora, Caleb calmly stood in front of her.

This action only made Aurora more frightened.

As if there was something between her and Caleb.

And Maverick's warning still echoed in her ears...

"Maverick, long time no see. I didn't expect to see you here. But why are you here?"Caleb asked in confusion.

This is a plastic surgery hospital, and he didn't think that Mavericks already handsome face needed any modification.

Could it be because of Aurora...

"Passing by," Maverick replied coldly.

Caleb took few steps forward and said, "Maverick, we haven't see each other for many years. Let's go have a drink?"

"Okay," Maverick didn't refuse. When he turned around, his hawk-like gaze swept over the prey who was shrinking in the corner without making a sound.

After Maverick and Caleb left, Aurora's body went limp and she sat down on the chair.

Her back was covered in cold sweat.

She knew why Maverick appeared here. Eaglecrest Group had the bought Plastic Surgery Hospital, which meant that Maverick had bought it. He didn't need a reason to come to his own territory.

Aurora covered her face in despair.

Maverick bought a plastic surgery hospital just to control her.

She never expected his controlling behavior to be so terrifying that she couldn't even catch her breath...

Aurora thought about the confidentiality agreement she signed for the repair surgery. Would Maverick find out?

It's unlikely.

Maverick wouldn't bother with client files.

Thinking of this, she felt a little relieved.

The schedule client arrived, and Aurora quickly got to work.

It was already around nine o'clock when she finished.

Aurora went to the changing room, opened her locker, and was about to change clothes when her phone rang.

She was stunned when she saw the incoming call.

It wasn't a video call, just a regular phone call.

She had told Mia not to call her during work.

And It's night already!

Chen Mengying answered, "Hello?"

"Mom? Is this my mommy?" A childish voice came through the phone, instantly melting away all her exhaustion.

"Yes, it's your mommy. What time is it? Why are you not sleeping? Where are your brothers?" Aurora asked.

The caller was her daughter, Ava, who pouted, "Big brothers have slept. I wanted to talk to Mommy, so I borrowed Auntie's phone to call you!"

Aurora knew it was like, without blaming, with a smile on her lips. "Hmm, Mom misses you guys too." After all, the children knew nothing.

"Is mom done with work?" Ava asked in a sweet voice.

"Just finished, getting ready to go home!" Aurora replied smiling happily.

"Not coming back to this home?" Ava asked expectantly.

Aurora was about to reply when Mia's voice came through, "Ava, why are you using the phone?"

"I'm calling Mom."

"Didn't we say Mom can't use the phone while working?"

"I...I just called for a little bit.."

Aurora listened to her daughter's soft voice and smiled tenderly. She thought about video chatting with the children when it's daylight.

The door to the changing room opened, and Aurora thought it was a colleague.

But when she turned her head and saw the deep, dark, slender figure, her face turned pale with fear...

"Who are you calling?" Maverick's expression was cold and emotioness.

"No one..." Aurora stuff all over, filled with fear.

"Give it to me."

Aurora turned and ran, trying to end the call on her phone.

But the other hand moved even faster...

"Ah!" Aurora screamed and tried to grab the phone, but the neck was suddenly grabbed, and she was pinned to the wardrobe!

"Ugh!" Maverick held the phone, and the call had already ended.

He dialed the number back and put it on speakerphone.

When the phone was answered, she was met with Aurora's fierce and menacing gaze.

Her breathing became rapid, her face turned pale, and her inner nervousness and fear overwhelmed her body.

She repeated to herself over and over again, "I can't let Maverick find out about the children! I can't!"

"Hello, Aurora? Why did you hang up earlier?" Mia asked curiously.

Maverick seemed dissatisfied with the unfamiliar woman's voice and gestured with his black eyes to speak.

"I... I'm fine. I was just about to go back. I called to tell you that I won't be able to pay you back the money right away..." Aurora struggled to speak through her trembling voice.

"You silly girl, the money doesn't matter. The most important thing is that you should come back. I miss you." Mia replied.

Aurora was slightly surprised by her friend's acting skills, but before she could finish her sentence, Maverick ended the call.

"She's just a friend..."

"Let's go!" Maverick interrupted her, showing no interest in her affairs, and ordered her to follow him as he turned and walked away.

"I need to change my clothes..."

"No need!" Aurora thought, should I wear a nurse uniform to go?

***

Aurora arrived at a high-end club.

From the parked cars at the entrance, all worth over a million, it was clear that the consumption level inside the club was high. Girls like Aurora didn't even have the qualifications to enter.

Following behind Maverick, she felt a sense of false bravado.

The door to the private room opened and Aurora walked in.

Inside, there were only Caleb, accompanied by a seductive woman.

The extra woman immediately tried to get close to Maverick when she saw him, but was scared away by his cold gaze.

When Caleb saw who had come in, especially Aurora in her work uniform, he pushed the woman beside him aside and stood up, "Aurora, are you here to see me?"

Maverick's sharp black notice Caleb's action, but he remained silent.

Caleb noticed something was wrong. How did Aurora know he was here? And was she with Maverick?

Maverick sat down and suddenly grabbed Aurora's wrist, pulling her towards him forcefully.

"Ah!" Aurora was startled and bumped into his strong chest. she sat down beside him, her heart pounding in fear.

"Caleb!" Caleb wanted to step forward to stop them, but was stopped by Maverick's cold gaze.

"Caleb, stay away from women like her, or you'll end up in a terrible situation." Maverick's dark eyes were filled with coldness. He lifted Aurora's chin and asked, "Am I right?"

Aurora's breathing was trembling, and her clear eyes were enduring humiliation.

Caleb's face was tense as he looked at Aurora, who was restrained and unable to move.

could he not see it now?

Aurora lied to him.

It was highly possible that Maverick had already set his sights on Aurora before he met her!

"Speak!" Maverick was impatient.

"You're right," Aurora replied with a trembling voice.

"Caleb, don't interfere in my affairs!" Maverick's voice was cold.

One moment they were drinking together, and the next moment Maverick's mood changed drastically, making him unpredictable and terrifying Caleb's face didn't look good.

"Since you're short of men, I've found one for you. Your client likes something special, so dress like this and serve him." Maverick's devilish words echoed.

Aurora's face turned pale, her body trembling, and she looked at him in disbelief. "Don't... don't do this. I'll listen to you from now on."

"Going against my will, this is your fate!" Aurora's black eyes were fierce.

Aurora knew what he meant, because she had contact with Caleb, but it wasn't voluntary. However, she couldn't push the blame onto Caleb!

"Bring her client over!" Maverick ordered.
