Devil's Prisoner of Love by Prefer

Julian was visibly upset by Mio Walsh's appearance. He wanted nothing more than to leave with Aurora right away.

Aurora noticed Julian's distraction. "What are you thinking about so seriously, Julian?"

"Nothing, Little Bunny. If there's nothing else to do, let's leave." Julian's mind flashed back to Tina's urgent tone earlier, insisting he take Aurora away from New York.

It was as if Mio Walsh were some kind of monster. Tina clearly knew him better than anyone else. The information on him described a man willing to go to any lengths to achieve his goals.

People like that were the most dangerous. They smiled on the surface, but their depths were unfathomable, capable of betraying you without hesitation.

"Julian, I haven't met Mr. Bardem yet," Aurora said, her mind made up. Whether or not she could secure the project, she wanted to at least make the effort.

Julian couldn't resist her determined expression. "Fine. I'll give you the chance. But if you can't secure the project, you'll stay by my side and go nowhere. Understand?" "Okay." Aurora slipped out of his arms like a fish.

Julian kept a close eye on her. Even if she left his side, she would never leave his sight. "Why are you here?" Asher asked, noticing Aurora suddenly standing beside him. Since she'd been with Julian, the two had been inseparable, like conjoined twins.

"Of course, I'm here to fight alongside you and try to secure this project," Aurora said with a smile.

"You think you can do it?"

"Not sure, but it's worth a shot. Trying doesn't cost anything. If we secure this project, the company's reputation will rise significantly."

"Surprising to see love hasn't dulled your edge. Alright then, it's been a while since we fought side by side. The old plan?" Asher raised an eyebrow.

"The information says Michael Bardem isn't the type to be swayed by women or interested in antiques," Aurora had already skimmed through his profile.
