Chapter 281 You Guessed It All?


Cormac watched as Alaric left the office, exited the building, and drove away.

When he closed the locker door, Cormac knew that the wrong deed was done and there was no turning back.

Cormac couldn't sleep at all that night. He didn't dare to think about Alaric's reaction when he found out, nor the consequences this would bring to Nexus Innovations.

But one thing was certain: as long as Aurora was safe, he would turn himself in and report Ambrose's threats.
