Devil's Prisoner of Love by Prefer

Chapter 357: Wedding Night

Susan knew Julian would take the bait; no man could be indifferent to his beloved

being with someone else. The deeper the love, the greater the pain, and the news of Aurora with another was like a knife to his heart.

Julian, proud as he was, would hate Aurora more if he discovered her unfaithfulness, as no one likes their self-esteem trampled upon. Aurora would be miserable then, and who knew how Julian would retaliate? Susan felt today's humiliations were not in vain as she pondered this.

"Mr. Barnet, as expected, you are straightforward. Since you smeared my name on purpose, you should be the one to clear it. Consider the losses I've endured as an apology to Aurora. From now on, let's consider our accounts settled. How do you find my proposal?"

Susan was somewhat self-aware and did not make excessive demands, knowing Julian was far more formidable than she had imagined.

If her terms angered him, Julian would certainly not let her off easily, and her fate would be more than just being ousted from the entertainment industry.

"Fine, send me the video," Julian snorted coldly.

"I'll send it right away. Uncle Julian, no offense, but with your status, you could have any woman. Why obsess over one so fickle?"

"Say one more word, and I'll have the trolls tear you apart!"

Even so, Julian could not tolerate any disrespect towards Aurora. Susan ended the call and sent the video she had recorded that afternoon to Julian.

Seeing a message on his phone, Julian lacked the courage to open it. If Susan had sent this video, it meant the man in it was not Hayden. Asher wasn't even in the country, so it couldn't be him. If Susan had taken it earlier, she would have sent it sooner, not waiting until now.

Who could the man be? For the first time, the fearless Julian felt scared. The unknown was always the most terrifying. Could Little Bunny truly betray him? Remembering how the petite woman had clung to his waist earlier, she didn't seem capable of betrayal. He took a deep breath, resigned to his fate, and picked up the phone, which felt like a bomb at that moment. Julian unlocked the phone with mixed feelings and played the video, only to laugh when he saw its contents.

Was he laughing at Susan's naivety or his own ignorance? The video was from the afternoon, showing Phil and Aurora playfully scuffling. Susan, unfamiliar with Phil, had misinterpreted their interaction and even thought to use it as leverage in negotiations.
