n the other side, Ferris snorted coldly: [I don’t have time for your nonsense.]
The next second, the mindlink was abruptly cut off from his end.
Even though I had expected this, I still smiled bitterly.
I quickly answered the call. Adrian’s voice was very gentle: “Aurora, do you like those three dresses?”
“Mm,” I said. “Which one do you think looks best?”
Adrian on the other end seemed to chuckle: “Didn’t I say if you like them, buy them all? I’ve already had my beta reserve all three.”
“Well that was fast.” I was somewhat surprised.
Adrian: “I was afraid we’d be too late to order them. These are all limited editions.”
“Mm, thank you for the trouble.”
“Aurora, you’re my fiancée now, you’re my future Luna. I’m happy to do things for you.”
He continued: “Oh, Aurora, I bought you a car. You can go to the dealership to pick it up in a few days.”
Hearing this, my grip on the phone tightened.
I didn’t understand why Adrian was so good to me.
Actually, my engagement to Adrian had been arranged when I was young.
But during my teenage years, I had become madly infatuated with Ferris.
Back then, to escape the arranged marriage with Adrian, I had run away from home. Adrian definitely knew about this.
Even though I had run to Silver Moon Pack to escape marrying him, Adrian not only didn’t blame me but also wanted to buy me cars and various luxury goods.
It’s not necessary, taking taxis is quite convenient for me.”
Adrian’s voice carried a trace of barely perceptible hurt: “Aurora, you’re being so polite with me–is it because you still don’t want to become my Luna?”
*Third Person POV**
At this moment, Adrian stood before the floor–to–ceiling windows of the CEO office atop the corporate building, overlooking the myriad lights below, his eyes ender as water.
Heaven knows how much he had wanted to buy her cars, houses, and send her money three years ago when he learned that Aurora was living so frugally in Silver Moon Pack.
But he lacked the proper status. If he had rashly sent her gifts, she definitely wouldn’t have accepted them.
Fortunately, now was different from then. She had agreed to become his Luna, and he finally had the status to legitimately give her gifts.
Unlike Adrian’s heart full of tenderness, at this moment Ferris sat alone in the Alpha office, the room unlit and cold.
For some reason, his heart was occupied by an unpleasant feeling–what seemed like unease and… regret.
Ferris frowned slightly. How could he possibly regret anything?
Aurora had already obtained the wealth and glory she wanted. How could she be willing to give up everything she had worked so hard to gain?
No, she couldn’t and wouldn’t leave him.
Thinking this, he mindlinked his beta Simon:
“Go Investigate where Luna has been recently and who she’s been meeting.”
