NovelEnglishChapter 34 They’re Merely Friends The awards ceremony was over.
Zac was in the car that was heading to the company.
He took the documents in his hand. The former Bennet Group had been officially renamed the Grandor
Group
There was a repayment bill at the end of the documents.
Zac narrowed his eyes, his fingers passing over the number.
Carter sat in the passenger seat and reported in a low voice, “Mr. Buchanna, after the Bennet family
went bankrupt, Aurora’s debt has been taken over by the company. In other words, you are now her
creditor.”
Zac threw the bill aside.
What lingered in his mind was the expression on Aurora’s face when she exposed the pendant at the
wedding that day. He also recalled that she almost agreed to marry Terry on the podium just now.
Those expressions on Aurora’s face looked unfamiliar to Zac.
“You know what to do,” Zac said.
“Yes, Mr. Buchanna. I will make the arrangements immediately.”
Zac slowly closed his eyes, tapping his fingers on his knees again and again. He would let Aurora
understand that he had the final say in all of this.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtMost of the audience had left, and only the reporters were waiting outside.
Aurora sat in the dressing room for a long time. She looked at the message about paying the debt on
her phone over and over again, scratching her hair anxiously.
Thinking about that heavy debt, Aurora couldn’t muster up any strength, and the joy of winning the
championship had disappeared without a trace.
Her phone rang again.
It was a call from Abel.
“Aurora, we are going to go to the restaurant. Come out quickly. Terry is treating us today. Let’s go to
the Sousure Restaurant. We will have a big meal.”
Aurora put down her phone and walked out.
That restaurant was famous, and ordinary people could not afford it. Only the upper class would go
there.
In the past, Aurora had been to the restaurant once with Zac. But she had been there only once.
When they reached the entrance of the restaurant, they saw the splendid building shining in the night.
“Wow, how much does it cost to have a meal here?”
“There are luxurious hotel rooms upstairs. Thank you so much, Mr. Walton.”
Several young men in the team crowded into the elevator. The elevator was overloaded, so Terry and
Aurora were left behind.
The elevator door closed and the atmosphere instantly quieted down.
After a while, Terry turned around and stared at Aurora. “I didn’t plan it perfectly this time. Next time, I
won’t let you have the chance to escape. Keep this ring for me now, okay?”
He grabbed Aurora’s hand and stuffed the ring into her hand.
“Terry, you know what I mean,” Aurora said with a frown.
“You don’t want me to make a fool of myself, so you didn’t embarrass me.” Terry lowered his head and
laughed at himself. “If the one who proposed to you on the stage was Zac, would you refuse him like
this?”
When Aurora heard the disgusting name, she couldn’t help but coldly say, “You still don’t understand
what I mean.”
“Alright, don’t make me so embarrassed. Just keep it for me. You won’t reject to do such a small favor
for your friend, right?”
As he spoke, he caught a glimpse of a figure at the door.
What a coincidence.
Wherever Terry and Aurora went, they would meet Zac.
Terry directly grabbed Aurora’s hand. “Let’s go, we have to hurry up. Otherwise, they will order a lot of
dishes. I am afraid that the money on my card won’t be enough to pay the bill.”
Before Aurora could say anything, the elevator door had closed.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmZac had just gotten out of the car and was showered with some light rain.
He made an appointment with a business partner to come here to talk about things. Just as he entered
the door, he witnessed such a good show.
Zac frowned. Even the doorman could see his displeasure.
Carter said, “Mr. Buchanna, Mr. Miller is in the Fluro Hall on the third floor.”
“Okay.”
Zac responded coldly and entered the elevator.
When he passed by Terry’s private room, Zac paused for a moment. He clearly heard the sounds of
booing coming from the private room.
“Terry, Aurora, the two of you must drink. You two are seeing each other secretly, right? Why did you
hide that from us?”
Aurora pushed Terry and said, “Explain it.”
Terry muttered, “Explain what? Nothing needs to be explained. I like Aurora. She will be my girlfriend
sooner or later.”
“You…” Aurora was furious and raised her leg to kick him.
“Alright, alright,” Terry grinned as he hugged Aurora’s thigh. “I need to use the bathroom.”
Everyone tacitly winked at each other, as if they knew the relationship between Terry and Aurora.
As soon as the door of the private room was opened, Terry turned around and saw a familiar figure.
He was stunned for a moment and then snorted.
