Devil's Prisoner of Love by Prefer

Chapter 802

The two of them chatted cheerfully as they walked toward Aurora's car. A bodyguard suddenly appeared, holding an umbrella he must have bought nearby. "Miss Aurora, I'm sorry you got caught in the rain."

"It's fine. No one expected a sudden downpour," Aurora replied indifferently.

The bodyguards eyed the man standing beside Aurora curiously. Aurora waved them off. "This gentleman was kind enough to share his umbrella with me. I've offered to give him a ride. You can head back."

"Yes, Miss Aurora."

Aurora gestured for Julian to get into the car. "Where do you live, sir?"

Julian provided an address, which happened to be the apartment Aurora had once lived in herself. She muttered under her breath, "Why does that sound so familiar?"

"What did you say?" Julian asked.

"Nothing. I'm just not great with directions. Let me check the GPS." Aurora set the route and was about to start driving when she noticed the torrential rain outside, obscuring her view.

"The rain's too heavy right now. Driving in this weather could be dangerous. Why don't we wait until it lets up?" Julian suggested. The rain was so intense that the windshield wipers couldn't keep up, clearing the glass one moment only for it to be drenched the next.

"Good idea. What's with this ridiculous weather? Rain out of nowhere-so annoying." Aurora frowned, clearly irritated.

Julian, however, felt secretly delighted. He thought perhaps fate was giving them a little help. "Yes, it really came out of nowhere," he agreed.
