Modesty looked at Arthur’s back and felt disgusted.

She found Aurora who was looking at her new self-made nail art, “Rest assured. I have arranged everything well. Once the contest has ended, the money will be transferred to his account. In regard to you…”

Aurora glanced at her up and down twice and said in an apathetic tone, “If he wants you to go, you should go. Maybe he and you could share experiences with each other. After all, the both of you are in the same boat. If you are unwilling to do it, he will not force you.”

After listening to Aurora, Modesty sensed that Aurora had the intention of casting Modesty aside after achieving her goals. Modesty couldn’t help but frown, “Ms. Barton, we are actually in the same boat.”

Aurora was unconcerned and laughed, “The person who is in the same boat with you doesn’t matter. As long as we have the same goals, everything will go well. Things have come to this point. Don’t tell me you regret everything you have done and want to change your mind?”

“I have no intentions of doing that. I am only…”

Aurora didn’t have the patience to continue the conversation and was annoyed, “Ok, ok. I know what you are thinking. I find someone to talk to him later. He will be notified that you are not going to the meeting. What a hassle.”

Modesty had a lot of pent-up frustrations but she could not quarrel with her directly. She could only say, “Thank you, Ms. Barton.”

Aurora acknowledged her words lazily. She lifted her head to look at the door of the lounge, signalling to Modesty that she should leave.

After exiting the lounge, Modesty stood in the same spot for a moment and walked towards the staircase with her phone.

Although Arthur had some fame and did not have a very poor reputation, it wasn’t his first time he had cheated for someone in a contest. Moreover, he was notorious for toying with women with his cheap tricks.

Modesty stood on the staircase and dialled Adolph’s number. However, his phone was turned off.

Modesty couldn’t help but frown. After thinking for a long time, she dialled her home number but nobody answered the phone.

Modesty felt very irritated. What were they doing?

They usually talked a good game, but when something happened, nobody was there.
