Devil's Prisoner of Love by Prefer

Aurora had anticipated the consequences the moment she decided to reveal the truth. She deliberately implicated the name of Gilpin Enterprise as a way to retaliate-an eye for an eye. If Lindsay Gilpin wanted to harm her, then she would have to endure the same pain.

Even if others at Gilpin Enterprise were not directly involved, they would still be dragged down by Lindsay. From now on, whenever people mentioned Gilpin Enterprise, they would think about this scandal.

The media's attention would soon shift away from Aurora's company, and Gilpin Enterprise would bear the brunt of the fallout.

Far away in Europe, Julian only learned about the incident today. He had been so swamped with work recently that he hardly had time to breathe. Although he still spoke with Aurora on the phone, she hadn't mentioned any of this to him, not wanting to cause him unnecessary worry.

It was only by chance, while waiting for someone, that he stumbled across a live broadcast on the news. Alarmed, he called Rock to get the full story. Rock admitted he had intended to inform Julian earlier, but Aurora had specifically asked him not to. "She said she could handle it herself and didn't want to bother you," Rock explained.

Julian couldn't help but admire how capable she was. There really was no need for him to worry so much about her. According to their plans, Aurora would be coming to Europe to join him in a few days. Still, he couldn't help but wonder if anything else might happen before then.

During the busy hours of the day, the time seemed to fly by. But the moment he had time to rest, every second felt like an eternity as he missed her.

That same day, Mr. Gilpin stormed into the family villa, where Lindsay Gilpin was nervously attending to the relatives who had gathered because of the incident.
