Devil's Prisoner of Love by Prefer

Chapter 594

Perhaps to make up for Aurora, Julian hadn't left her side for the past two days. Not only did he avoid going to work himself, but he also forbade Aurora from going.

"You need to stay home and rest," he insisted. Aurora always lost weight whenever she fell ill, and Julian had specifically asked Mrs. Hill to prepare medicinal soups to help her

recover.

"Julian, it's just a little cold. I'm really not that fragile," Aurora said with an exasperated smile. "There's still so much work waiting for me at the office."

"Don't think I don't know," Julian said seriously. "They've told me everything. The moment I'm not around, you work overtime every day. You've never been in good health, yet you push yourself too hard. Are you deliberately trying to make me worry?" "Julian, I just want to get things done quickly," Aurora replied, tugging at his sleeve. "You can work, but not at the expense of your health. And have I not told you? I can take care of you. Even if you don't want me to, the Montgomery family shares and the Alvarez family shares you inherited bring in huge dividends every year."

Julian couldn't understand why she worked so hard. The more she pushed herself, the more it pained him.

Aurora pouted playfully. "Julian, you know I'm stubborn by nature. I don't like being dependent on anyone. Look, I'm really all better now. Can I go to the office tomorrow?"

To prove her point, Aurora even twirled in front of him. Watching her spin, Julian couldn't help but think of the little girl in a white dress spinning in front of him years ago. "Look at my dress! Isn't it pretty?" she had said back then.

Julian sighed, defeated by her charm. "Fine, fine. You can go to work tomorrow. Honestly, other women would jump at the chance to stay home and relax, but not you. You can't sit still for even a day."
