Devil's Prisoner of Love by Prefer

After meeting Mr. Lee, Aurora returned home for dinner, changed into another outfit, and headed out to attend the evening banquet.

The design drafts for the wedding rings were nearly complete. She left them on the table, waiting for Julian to finalize the design upon his return.

"Miss, will you not be coming back tonight?" Mrs. Hill asked before Aurora left.

"Probably not. You don't need to wait up for me. Just go to bed after you finish your TV show."

"Alright, Miss. Be careful out there. Those rich men can be trouble. Stay vigilant. And since Mr. Barnet isn't with you, remember to lock your door tonight when you go to sleep."

Mrs. Hill had always been close to Aurora, and now that they had reunited, she naturally cared for her even more. Besides their prior bond, Aurora paid her a generous salary every month for relatively light work. Aurora treated her like family, so Mrs. Hill took care of her with great dedication.

"Don't worry. Heather will be with me tonight, and we'll share a room. Cameron is here to pick me up. I'll head out now."

"Alright."

"Oh, and Mrs. Hill, Julian will be back tomorrow night. Make sure to buy some of his favorite dishes, preferably spicy ones. He's just coming back from Europe, so I'm sure he'll be craving Clothville cuisine."

"Got it, Miss."

With that, Aurora left. Heather had already opened the car door for her.

"Miss Montgomery, shall we go?"

"Let's."

Aurora wasn't wearing an evening gown tonight. She chose a simple black dress paired with a coat to shield herself from the cold on the boat. She had no desire to catch another cold.

The car headed toward the harbor. Heather, though initially unaccustomed to such occasions, had attended enough events by now to feel at ease.
