Devil's Prisoner of Love by Prefer

Chapter 420: Jealousy

After a full day at the office, Aurora had gained a basic understanding of all the new employees.

Since she would need to divide her time between Montgomery Group and Sun, she wouldn't be able to stay at Sun every day. But she made it a point to familiarize herself with everyone. While most employees were filled with excitement and enthusiasm, Gemma was the only one who remained uneasy.

Gemma couldn't stop worrying about how she had clashed with Aurora earlier. She was convinced Aurora wouldn't let her off easily. Having worked so hard to secure such a good position, she couldn't afford to be fired.

"Alright, today was the first day of work. I hope in the days to come, everyone will continue to work hard," Aurora encouraged them.

"Yes, President! We'll do our best!" the employees replied in unison.

"The company will never treat you unfairly. If I'm not here, you can approach Mona. She is the company's acting manager and has full authority," Aurora said, placing a hand on Mona's shoulder with a smile.

Aurora would never hand over such significant responsibilities to anyone she didn't trust completely. Mona, standing beside Aurora, felt a strong pang of guilt.

She didn't dislike Aurora-in fact, she liked her a great deal, which was why they had become such good friends. Mona loved Asher just as much as Asher loved Aurora.

But unlike other women, Mona didn't harbor resentment or jealousy toward Aurora. In the strange dynamic of the three, Mona had chosen to let go.

She once believed Aurora's lack of romantic involvement was due to her unresolved vendetta. Mona had thought that once Aurora's revenge was complete, she would naturally end up with Asher.

Mona's concept of love was selfless-what mattered most to her was that Asher found happiness, even if it wasn't with her.

But everything changed when Aurora returned and became entangled with Julian. Asher had spent three years trying to win Aurora's heart, yet Julian had somehow managed to capture it in a short time.
