Chapter 371: Cut Off Her Hand, Take the Bracelet

Aurora had a luxurious bath, perhaps feeling a novelty because this was where Julian had spent his childhood. Wrapped in a warm, soft silk duvet, she texted Julian, "Julian, are you asleep?"

He replied quickly, "Not yet, how about you? Are you used to the bed? If not, I can take you home."

Julian was always so considerate.

"Used to it. Thinking that you grew up here makes me a bit excited," Aurora rolled around in bed.

"Silly girl, get some rest. You have work tomorrow."

Julian probably imagined her rolling around, a tender smile on his lips.

"Okay, goodnight Julian."

Aurora set her alarm, turned off the light, and went to sleep.

Ever since the issues with Genevieve and Ivy were resolved, Aurora had been sleeping well, quickly drifting into dreamland.

As the night deepened, the entire land was shrouded in darkness, everything sunk into

a quiet slumber. Suddenly, the sound of keys was distinctly heard in the silent room.

Aurora woke abruptly from her dreams to the sound of keys in the lock. Could Julian be missing her?

Just as she thought this, the door opened. Aurora stared blankly at the shadow in the doorway, a very thin figure, not Julian.

The dim light made it impossible to see who it was. Aurora's heart raced. Who could it be?

She hurriedly turned on the light, and under its glow, she finally saw the person-it was the old lady from last night.
