Chapter 445: He Was a Fool All Along

When Asher learned that Aurora would be staying with him for a while, it was as if a withered tree had suddenly been nourished. From the day before, he had been eagerly anticipating her arrival. Today, he even went to the airport early, waiting for her. The moment he saw that familiar figure emerge from the terminal, he opened his arms wide.

"Little fox."

"Ashy, I'm back." Aurora ran into his embrace. This place held a deep emotional connection for her.

A radiant smile spread across Asher's face. "Welcome back."

Aurora noticed the man dressed in black who had been sitting next to her on the plane walking away with his luggage. Strangely, his suitcase was exactly the same as hers.

"What are you looking at?" Asher released her from his arms.

"Nothing. Just that the man sitting next to me had the same suitcase as mine."

"It's not a limited edition, so it's not that unusual," Asher said, trying to comfort her. But when his eyes landed on the faint marks on her neck, a twinge of jealousy stirred in his heart. Even though he had accepted her relationship with someone else, it still stung.

"You didn't have to show off in front of me like this, did you?" Asher tried to sound nonchalant.

"What?" Aurora was confused. Seeing her baffled expression, Asher immediately realized these marks must have been left by that man intentionally, and she was completely unaware of it.

That man hadn't come with her, yet he deliberately left such marks for Asher to see, as if staking his claim. What a petty move. Still, this also meant Aurora must have been entirely relaxed when it happened. Otherwise, with her shy nature, she would never have allowed it.
