Chapter 201 Not Worth It
Aurora was in a dilemma as the reporters pestered her with questions. She did not know what to say.
“I…”
At that moment, Terry stepped forward. His handsome face showed a rare calm look. He directly took the microphone. “Aurora is not from our team. I’m the one that you should interview today.” The reporters came to their senses after his reminder.
Then someone asked, “What is the relationship between you two now? You once proposed to Aurora on the podium. She seemed to have rejected you.” Connor’s face darkened as he secretly remembered the reporter’s appearance. Terry frowned slightly.
Abel and the others frowned. If Terry lost his temper and got into a conflict with these reporters, there would be a lot of
trouble.
They didn’t have time to step forward to stop him.
Aurora secretly pulled Terry. She wanted to tell him that no matter what these reporters asked, he could ignore them.
Unexpectedly, Terry directly said, “She refused me last time, but I still refused to give up and kept pestering her.”
This time, all the reporters’ curiosity was
ignited.
In other words, you are currently
pursuing Aurora unilaterally?”
“Yes.”
“So you quit racing and turned to
business because of her?”
“Yes.”
Aurora looked at the side of his face, and
the voice in her ear gradually became
unreal.
“I don’t have anything impressive. It’s
not strange for her not to choose me. After she rejected me last time, I thought about it for a long time. I think I shall
make myself better to protect her well.”
This declaration was not as exciting as what he said on the podium previously, but it had a soul-stirring power.
He was like an angel when he said that.
Aurora’s frozen heart felt a warmth that
she had never felt before.
She felt that Terry had indeed become
different from before.
“If Aurora agrees to date you, will you get married?”
The Walton family was one of the local
wealthy merchants. The reporters
wondered whether the Walton family
would care about Aurora’s past and the
fact that she had been married before.
Everyone present could understand the
meaning behind the question.
A cold glint flashed across Terry’s face as
he said, “Of course.”
Just as the reporter asked the next
question, he pushed all the microphones
away. “I have answered your questions.
Please leave now.”
“But…”
“Connor.”
With a look from Terry, Connor, who had
long been unable to hold back,
immediately rushed over with the people
from the race team.
He stopped all the reporters who wanted
to move forward.
“Alright, alright. The interview is over. We’re asking you to leave!”
Everyone worked together and finally drove the reporters out.
In the room, Aurora and Terry stood face
to face.
“Is your father alright?” Aurora was the
first to ask.
“He’s alright. It’s my fault. I challenged him and he was angry.” Terry frowned He wasn’t as nonchalant as before. Terry added, “Don’t think too much about it. It has nothing to do with you”
Aurora’s expression was indifferent as
she nodded.
Just as she was about to speak, Terry
found his courage and grabbed her wrist, nervousness and hesitation crossing his
face.
However, he knew that if he did not seize
every opportunity, he would probably regret it for the rest of his life.
Even if Aurora would push him away
again, he wanted to give it a try with all
his might.
The warmth on his palm was transmitted to Aurora. Then, he took a deep breath. “I
know that it is not easy for the Bennet Group to make a comeback. You need a
lot of connections and money. I was
useless and couldn’t help you before.
“So, I have recently taken over my family’s business. It won’t be long before Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
Tcan become your most trusted partner.”
Terry…”
A smile appeared on his handsome face. “Don’t feel guilty. I’m willing to be used by you at any time.”
His words were sweet but never fulsome.
In fact, the moment he said that, he was ready to be scolded by Aurora, who would leave after that. Unexpectedly, Aurora said, “Why hasn’t Abel come back yet?
It’s time to hold the retirement
ceremony.”
As she spoke, her wrist left his palm, and
she walked towards the door.
Terry turned his head and slowly came
back to his senses. He was surprised that
Aurora didn’t blame him.
That meant she might be moved by his
words.
The smile on Terry’s lips grew deeper
and deeper. For the entire night, he was
on cloud nine. The happiness was too
much that he felt it was a dream.
At the meal, he drank much.
“Excuse me, I’m gonna send Mr. Walton
back,” Connor said as he helped Terry,
who had drunk too much, into the car
with great effort.
The car door closed. Terry opened the
window directly and stretched out his
body and hand. “See you tomorrow,
Aurora!”
“See you, Connor,” Aurora replied
casually.
The car drove out of sight.
Abel and his companions also left one after another. Aurora declined their idea of sending her off. She walked alone on the street.
The wind reminded her of many things in the past, some pain buried deep in her memory surging. But she would no longer cry from the pain.
Tears were the most useless thing. She had no time to use that negative emotion to numb her nerves. She asked herself to be rational.
She looked up at the red light flashing across the street and took a deep breath. She thought to herself, do you still deserve to have love? He is passionate. Don’t you know what kind of expectation he has for you? How can you bear to use him? She lowered her head and smiled bitterly.
She thought she was not worth Terry treating her so well. She slowly crouched down and buried her head between her arms. At that time, a black car passed her. A wave of fallen leaves flew in the air. The man in the back seat had a sullen
look on his face. He placed his hand on the car door. He came out of the hospital and went to the nearby bank to handle some business. Then he happened to see Aurora having dinner with the people on the race team.
Aurora had just gotten along with them well. She laughed happily and drank a lot at that time. There was a hint of anger in the depths of his cold eyes.
“What’s the debt collection company doing? Has it quit its job?” Carter, who was in the passenger seat, immediately called Earl. Zac thought to himself, I showed her mercy again and again. That’s why she felt like she had returned to the days when she had been doted on by everyone?
Carter put down the phone. “Don’t worry, Mr. Buchanna. The debt collection company will work harder. Are you going to the hospital now?” Zac slowly closed his eyes. Carter got him and instructed the driver, “Go to the hospital.”
