Chapter 519
“Talk to you soon.
After speaking, Aurum quickly hung up the phone.
He was also in a state of desperation at the moment.
The plan, which was carried out smoothly and secretly, suddenly changed!
What was going on? What went wrong?
Aurum had always been low–key and cautious in everything he did, step by step. In order to successfully and
smoothly help Gale escape, he devoted more energy and thought than usual!
Only he and Gale knew about the plan!
Knock, knock… A knock came from the door.
“Aurum, I cut some fruit. Can I come in?” Natalie said.
Aurum walked quickly to open the door. “Natalie, you are still awake?”
“If you don’t sleep, how can I sleep? Seeing that the light in your study room was still on, I went to the kitchen to
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtprepare some fruit for you.”
Aurum reached out to take it, just in time to see the band–aid on Natalie’s finger.
“Did you cut your hand?” he asked.
Natalie shrank. “It’s okay. It’s a small cut. It’s okay.”
“Next time, ask the servants to do it. You don’t have to go to the kitchen yourself.”
Natalie said, “Seeing how tired you have been recently, I want to do something for you to relieve your stress. I
didn’t expect myself to be so useless, and I even hurt my hand when cutting fruit…”
“Don’t say that about yourself. Wait, I’ll get the medicine box to disinfect and re- bandage you.” Aurum pulled her
to sit down.
Looking at Aurum’s busy back, Natalie felt sweet in her heart.
He was hers.
“Okay. The cut was deep. Why were you so careless?” Aurum said.
“It doesn’t hurt. Aurum, when are you going to rest?”
“I might be staying up late.”
Natalie asked with concern, “Has work been busy?”
Aurum frowned and said, “No. Some things in the plan have changed, and I need to reschedule.”
He could only reveal so much to Natalie.
However, Natalie thought of something and asked tentatively, “Is it the incident. between you and Gale?”
Aurum was startled and suddenly raised his eyes to look straight at Natalie.
His eyes are extremely sharp and probing.
Facing Aurum’s eyes, Natalie’s heart sank suddenly, and she was very flustered.
Aurum had never looked at her like this!
This was the first time!
Natalie swallowed and said, “Aurum, why are you looking at me like that? Did I say something wrong?”
She was still guilty.
Maybe… she went to report to Shawn. After Shawn’s investigation, he had found a clue!
After all, in Sea City, nothing could be hidden from Shawn’s eyes as long as he wanted to know!
Aurum’s eyes closed and became much more relaxed.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe also understood that he scared her, but just now…he could not control it.
It was because it mattered!
He asked, “Natalie, have you ever told anyone else that Gale and I have been in frequent contact?”
“No.”
“Are you sure? Haven’t you mentioned a word to anyone?”
Natalie nodded her head. “Aurum, I have a sense of propriety. How could I tell anyone? Besides, I don’t know what it
is, and you didn’t explain it to me.”
Aurum frowned even tighter.
Then what went wrong?
Gale had not told anyone, and he only told Natalie, who was closest to him… How could Shawn be suspicious?
Or was that person not Shawn but someone else?
Too many doubts lingered in his mind.
Natalie dared not to speak out and kept sneaking glances at Aurum.
She thought, if Shawn found out by then, it would be none of her business…
Shawn would not rat on her.
It was because he did not owe anyone an explanation!
