Devil's Prisoner of Love by Prefer

Chapter 529: I Am DO

After days of hard work, Aurora finally left work early today. She decided it was time to personally inspect the results. While Ian had sent her videos of the progress, nothing compared to seeing it firsthand.

To her surprise, the rehearsal concluded without any flaws. Even the tiniest issue had been resolved thanks to Ian's meticulous feedback. He worked like a student presenting a thesis, striving for perfection, fearful of being asked to redo the work.

"Miss Montgomery, what do you think? Is there anything that needs to be changed?" Ian asked earnestly. His humility and dedication made him an exceptional talent.

Julian used to dislike Ian, sensing a hidden affection in the man's gaze toward Aurora. But now, Julian could see the sheer effort and passion Ian had poured into his work. For an intern yet to graduate, Ian's abilities far surpassed many so-called industry elites. It wasn't just talent-it was diligence and determination.

Julian no longer felt the animosity he once harbored, especially now that Ian's admiration for Aurora had faded. That was good.

"There's nothing to change. You've done an excellent job, Ian. You've exceeded all my expectations," Aurora praised without hesitation.

The live demonstration was even more impressive than the videos Ian had sent. The added touches and innovations made it clear that Ian had spent countless hours refining every detail. From the stage effects to the flow of the event, even the speech script-everything was flawless.

"Thank you. I was so worried I might disappoint you." Ian held a steaming cup of coffee, but what truly warmed him was Aurora's recognition.

Aurora smiled faintly. "You've done wonderfully. I'm proud of you. With someone as talented as you on the Sun team, I can confidently leave the future in your hands."

Aurora hadn't forgotten her commitments. She still had the Montgomery Group to manage and a promise to Candy to fulfill. The DO brand had been quiet for too long, and after the perfume launch, she needed to focus on new projects. From the moment Aurora chose a path different from others, she had accepted that her journey would never be easy.

"You've all worked hard. Once tomorrow's launch is a success, I'll treat you to dinner to express my gratitude."

"Thank you, Miss Montgomery."
