Devil's Prisoner of Love by Prefer

Chapter 277: Prepare Yourself Mentally

Julian certainly wouldn't let anyone walk over him, his voice filled with piercing spikes in every sentence.

He knew well that Aurora was a thorn in his heart, yet he still chose to utter such words, causing Hayden's face to turn pale.

"Julian, what are you talking about, what Aunt Aurora?" Aurora's tone carried a hint of reproach, while Hayden gave her a grateful look.

"Oh? What's wrong with that statement? I am his uncle, so he should indeed call you aunt," Julian thought that Aurora was just wary of her past relationship with Hayden, which prompted her to interject.

Hearing this made him uneasy-the more he cared about Aurora, the less he wanted anyone else to occupy even a small place in her heart.

Aurora, fully aware of his jealous nature, smiled more broadly, "We aren't married yet. Why should he call me Aunt Aurora? He should at least wait until after our wedding."

"Marriage, Aurora? How long have you known him to be talking about marriage?" Hayden felt uncomfortable at the mention of marriage.

"When it comes to how long we've known each other, we certainly can't compare to the deep connection you have with Susan. But, well, everyone has to get married sometime.

Our time together doesn't conflict with marriage; as long as I feel it's right, I'll commit to him. Speaking of which, your wedding with Susan must be coming up soon, right?" Aurora asked lightly.

If in the past her heart would have fluctuated with Hayden and Susan's relationship, now she felt absolutely nothing.

"We..."

"Little Bunny, you might not know yet, but they are getting married at the end of this month. The Alvarez family is already making grand preparations. Don't worry, if you get married, Aunt Aurora and I will definitely bring a big gift."

Hayden was carefully observing her expression, hoping to see a trace of concern that might ease his heart a bit.
