Devil's Prisoner of Love by Prefer

Chapter 96 An Opportunity Aurora's eyes were icy cold. Who had she offended? In this world, only one person would wish her dead, but she had kept a low profile. It should have been impossible for the Montgomery family to know she had returned.

Previously, Ivy had passed by her without showing any signs of recognition. If it wasn't the Montgomery family, could it be Susan? "Aurora? What's wrong?" Hayden noticed her frosty demeanor, an aura of rejection radiating from her. This version of Aurora felt unfamiliar to him. Just yesterday, she had been enchantingly charming in his presence. How much had she changed? "It's nothing. Has Susan been troubling you?" Aurora probed cautiously.

"She made a scene once. When did you leave that night?" Hayden had looked forward to having breakfast with her, only to find she had already left when he arrived.

"Somebody clooking for me." She admitted without concealment.

Hayden's expression changed at her words. It was late when they had rested the previous night.

She had just returned and hadn't informed anyone else. Who could have clooking for her? "Who?" Hayden's voice involuntarily grew cold.

Aurora had regained her composure, her expression cool as she faced Hayden. "It's not your concern." "Aurora, you've just cback. Your best friend used to be Susan, and you also said not to let the Montgomery family know. I can't think of anyone else who would seek you out." Over the last three years, Hayden had never forgotten Aurora, especially realizing his feelings for her had not faded when she returned.

Last night, he even harbored a thought. Could there still be a chance for reconciliation? Now, she was irresistibly alluring, particularly after her personality had changed, constantly tempting those around her.

Aurora was well aware he was probing. She suddenly leaned closer to Hayden.

"What if I say the person looking foris my boyfriend?" Her red lips curved into an elegant smile, startling Hayden.

"You have a boyfriend?" He had been out of touch with her, as if she had vanished from this world.

He had never imagined that the person standing beside her would be someone other than himself. Just the thought unsettled him.

"Shouldn't I have a boyfriend? We broke up three years ago. Remember how it ended?" "Aurora, I've said it many times. It was because I was drugged..." "No need to explain further. I've made myself clear that night. Whether it was a misunderstanding or something else, we can't go back. You're about to get engaged, and I should have my own new life, so it's not strange that I have a boyfriend." Aurora had had enough of his so-called explanations, and she felt it necessary to clarify everything.

"Thanks for savingjust now. You can dropby the roadside. I'll call someone to pickup." "Who is he?" "You don't need to know." She couldn't possibly reveal it was Julian, could she? "Who was chasing you tonight?" Hayden observed her closely, noting her hesitation when she mentioned her supposed boyfriend.

It was clear that she was deceiving herself with her earlier words. She must be single.

If Aurora really had a boyfriend, why would the man agree to let her meet him alone? "I don't know. I'm completely clueless right now," Aurora furrowed her brows when she continued, "Have you exposed my whereabouts?" "You mean Susan? She clooking for me, but it didn't seem like she knew you were back." Of course, this was just his guess. Hayden still needed to investigate thoroughly.

"I see. Alright then, I'll just get off here." "No, it's too dangerous for you to be alone. I'll take you home." Hayden didn't instruct the chauffeur to stop.

Aurora gave a cold smile. "My boyfriend will protect me. You don't need to worry." "If he was as good as you claim, he wouldn't have left you in danger. Aurora, even though you've changed a lot, I can still tell whether you're lying or not." When Aurora mentioned her boyfriend just now, she indeed lacked confidence, and the thought of Julian involuntarily cto her mind.

She was reluctant to believe it, thus revealing her slip.

"Regardless of whether I have a boyfriend, there's no possibility between us now," Aurora stated bluntly.

Hayden only thought of that moment of tenderness from her last night. He had pinned her down, and they were so close.

He believed that if it weren't for Susan, he might have already... How could Aurora's attitude towards him have changed so quickly? "Aurora, must you tormentlike this?" Ever since she returned, his heart hadn't had a day of peace. Planning your weekend reading? Ensure you're on 5sfor uninterrupted enjoyment.

He had always been looking forward to seeing her, wanting to apologize, but when Aurore finally said she didn't blhim, his heart felt even more uneasy. "Torment?" "You're close yet distant to me. Isn't that tormenting me?" "If you think that's torment, then so be it, but it can never compare to the torment you putthrough three years ago." Aurora hadn't forgotten the countless times she woke from nightmares over the years, dreaming of the scene where Hayden and Susan were screwing.

This nightmare had haunted her for three years. If she could bring torment to Hayden, she would be pleased. She was about to say something when Hayden's phone rang. He looked at it, saw it was Susan, and hung up immediately.

Seeing the nSusan, she withdrew her gaze indifferently. Given Susan's nature, it probably wasn't so simple to give up on Hayden.

Sure enough, just as she thought this, the phone's screen lit up again, and Hayden frowned and muted it.

Aurora saw the flashing light beside her and felt a twinge of emotion.

Susan had gone to steah he to great lengths to Hayden away back then. She probably didn't anticipate that one day she would go out of her way to keep Hayden by her side.

Now, Susan was going through what Aurora had suffered from back then. Was this how Susan felt at that time? En & from Aurora felt incredibly joyful inside. However, the only difference between her and Susan was that she no longer loved this man. For Aurora, it was only about revenge now.

This pleasure was even greater than the sorrow when Susan had taken Hayden away from her. Thinking of this, Aurora was in no rush to leave.

Given what happened that night, Susan probably hadn't slept at all. Since fate had given her this opportunity, why not use it? mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLliIofifl0&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1
