Devil's Prisoner of Love by Prefer

Chapter 69 We Have a Whole Lifetime

Julian hadn't changed at all. He could always easily make her angry just like in the old days, yet every time she got angry, he had ways to quickly make her happy again.

"I'm really hungry. The story is too long, and I can't finish it in a short while. We have plenty of time to talk," he softened his tone suddenly, gently holding her.

Now, he was no longer the youth of those days, and she was no longer that naive girl. They had long since become more intimate than they would have expected.

His sudden tenderness threw her heart into disarray. "Tell me about it later," she said as she hurriedly pushed him away and went downstairs.

The faint fragrance from her hair wafted through the air, stirring his mind. A trait of liking to run away whenever she felt shy or angry hadn't changed since her youth.

"Don't worry, Little Bunny. We have a lot of time to talk slowly, as we're going to stay together for life," he reassured her.

She looked up to see him leaning on the staircase, a mischievous smile playing on his lips. Why had she ever saved him?

There was nothing in the fridge in the new house for lunch. She planned to drive to the nearby supermarket, but just then, the doorbell rang.

"Miss Montgomery, this is what Mr. Barnett asked me to buy. Please check if it's enough. If anything is missing, I'll go get it right now."

The general manager, along with several others, each carrying packages of varying sizes, stood at the door with broad smiles. Aurora could vaguely see that each bag was filled with various groceries.

Feeling resigned, Aurora remembered Julian had always been foresighted since childhood, always able to arrange things perfectly.

She guessed he must have sent someone to buy groceries earlier, and the timing was perfect just after they had finished their conversation. Aurora stepped aside and said, "Please put them in the kitchen. That should be enough. No need to trouble yourselves further."

"No trouble at all. It's our honor to serve Mr. Barnet." The general manager finally understood why Julian had sold the house to this lady at such a discount.

It turned out they had been in a relationship!
