Chapter 63 It Will Eventually Become Our Home

For Aurora, this was no surprise but a shock.

It sounded too good to be true.

Given her professional expertise, she saw no issues with the contract, yet the lack of issues was precisely what troubled her the most. Gemma had thought Aurora would be thrilled to sign the contract but was surprised to see her unmoved and even skeptical. In her heart, Aurora did not see this as a good thing but rather a disaster. "Miss Montgomery, all you need to do is sign," Gemma said, already frustrated at having lost a significant portion of her commission. After some thought, since there were no apparent issues with the contract, Aurora guessed there wouldn't be any real problems. She actually quite liked the house, especially its proximity to the sea.

"Alright then." Since it wasn't her loss, she might as well consider them wealthy enough to afford such a surprise for their client. Aurora checked the contract one last time before signing her name.

"Miss, please wait a moment while I complete the necessary formalities," Gemma said as she turned to leave. Meanwhile, Julian was waiting precisely for Aurora to finish signing.

"It's you," he said coldly, glancing at Gemma, who had embarrassed Aurora the day before and was now working here.

Seeing him in his crisp suit, with the general manager standing respectfully behind him, she immediately recognized his status. So, he was the president, the CEO. Recalling the scene of him leading Aurora away the day before, she realized they had known each other for some time.

"Mr. Barnet," Gemma's face turned pale.

"She doesn't need to come to work here anymore. This contract will be followed up by you," Julian told the general manager, not forgetting how this woman had spoken about Aurora yesterday. A cup of coffee was certainly not enough to settle today's

score.

"Yes, Mr. Barnet," the general manager dared not ask why, taking the contract from Gemma's hands and saying, "You should go to the finance department to get your severance package."

Gemma realized she had no good fortune but a nemesis today! All her efforts over the past six months were in vain. All because of Aurora, who at this moment was still unaware of the situation.

Julian paid no attention to them and walked toward the room, where the sunlight gently fell on Aurora. She seemed much softened, unaware of his approach, not even lifting her head.
