Devil's Prisoner of Love by Prefer

Chapter 326: Surprise

Phil's remark had Aurora sensing something was off.

"Phil, what do you mean? Say it again."

"He's just spouting nonsense. Dinner should be ready; let's go eat," Julian interrupted the conversation.

Aurora frowned.

"Julian, are you involved in this? What's this about two pieces of land? Phil, you know, tell me."

Phil thought Aurora was aware of the situation, but her puzzled expression proved otherwise. Had he just slipped up?

He had assumed Julian would boast about such a good deed, wanting the whole world to know what a great man he was.

Little did Phil know that his cousin preferred to keep a low profile, performing good deeds anonymously and insisting they remain secret.

Now, Phil regretted his slip of the tongue, fearing Julian would have his hide.

"Cough, cough, the soup is still on the stove; I'll go check if it's ready. You two keep talking."

Making a quick exit seemed the wisest decision.

It turned out Julian had orchestrated the whole thing. She had thought it was a stroke of luck falling from the sky.
