Devil's Prisoner of Love by Prefer

Chapter 451: Mr. Vukic

"Mr. Vukic, the suitcase has something very important to me. Could you share your address, or perhaps we could arrange a place to exchange them?" The woman's voice carried a hint of excitement.

"I was just about to sleep," the man replied indifferently. What mattered to her were probably the cards. Replacing them one by one would be too troublesome.

"I'm very sorry to disturb you so late, Mr. Vukic, but I need the items in the suitcase tomorrow. If it's okay, I could come to your place, and you can hand it to me at the door?"

What Aurora referred to as "important" was a letter of recommendation. Mino and Julian weren't from the same field; they were merely acquaintances from the same university. Julian, concerned their relationship wasn't strong enough, had handwritten the letter to make it seem more formal. The letter also served as proof of Aurora's identity.

After a moment of silence, the man finally responded, "Come over. I'm at..."

When the man gave his address, Aurora was stunned. Could this be a coincidence? The man lived right across from her in the luxurious apartment building.

Even the floor was the same. Aurora rushed to her balcony to check the opposite apartment. The curtains were tightly drawn, concealing everything inside.

"Mr. Vukic! This is amazing! I live right across from you. If you open your curtains, you can see me!" Aurora exclaimed, finding it unbelievably coincidental. They had taken the same flight, had identical suitcases, and now, in such a large city, they lived in the same building.

The man listened to her words and abruptly opened his curtains. Standing on her balcony, Aurora waved at him, a small figure full of energy. Beside her stood another man-the same one from the airport.

"Mr. Vukic, is that you?" Aurora called out. The man stood by his window in a bathrobe. The distance was too far for her to see his expression clearly.

"It's me. You have five minutes. Come over now," the man's cold voice commanded.

"Alright, I'll be there right away. Wait for me." Aurora hung up and rushed out.
