Devil's Prisoner of Love by Prefer

Chapter 204: Return Their Own Way Upon Them

Aurora and Magnus arrived at a restaurant, with Magnus showing signs of fatigue on his face. "Aurora, you've heard about that incident, haven't you?" he asked.

"I thought everyone knew by now," Aurora replied nonchalantly, sipping her orange juice.

Seeing that Aurora was not angry, Magnus was puzzled. "Aurora, the whole company knows? How can you stay so calm? They are spreading rumors about us, do you know who started this? It's outrageous!"

Aurora shook her head. "What else should I do? Should we fight everyone at the company? There are too many people, it would be exhausting.

"The priority now is not to be angry or upset, but to clear this up and settle the matter."

"You're right, I've been too emotionally unstable lately, losing my reason."

"There's been a lot going on at home, I understand how you feel, Dad. Actually, I already know who did it," Aurora slowly said.

"You know who it is?"

"Yes, I just heard her admitting everything. You know her too, it was Alison, who had that mishap in the cafeteria a few days ago."

"It was her? Because of that incident? How despicable can she get!"

Aurora had already experienced how vicious a woman could be from her encounters with Genevieve; Alison was not even close to that level, so she was hardly surprised. "Yes, she almost got fired because of me that day and has held a grudge ever since. This whole situation involves both of us, and those outside don't know we are just father and daughter; that's why the rumors spread.
