As soon as Julian left, Gore smirked and said, "I never thought I'd live to see such a sappy side of you. This is truly rare."

"Before I met him, I didn't know I had this side of me," Aurora replied without hesitation. She had no intention of hiding her feelings for Julian.

"Alright, if I'd known I was coming here just to watch you show off your relationship, I must've been crazy to come." Gore looked exasperated. Today, he had truly witnessed Aurora's softer side.

To outsiders, she was always cold and unapproachable. Only when she was with Julian did she act like a gentle, affectionate woman.

"My dear boss, you've got plenty of fans who adore you. If you're feeling hurt, why not go find one of them to comfort you?" Aurora teased.

"Why do I sound so shameless when it comes out of your mouth?"

"Because you are shameless." Aurora chuckled lightly. "Hand me the car keys. You've been drinking, so I'll drive."

Gore caught the fleeting smile on Aurora's lips. She had changed so much. The Aurora he used to know would never have smiled like that in front of others. Back then, he'd prepared countless jokes to try and make her laugh, only to receive her cold, disdainful stares in return.
