CEO Is Chasing Ex-Wife Back novel Chapter 117

Chapter 117 I Have a Condition
The more Aurora thought about it, the angrier she got. She took her phone and wanted to spread the news online.
But if she did it without any preparation, it was very likely that once the news was released, it would
be handed over to the PR department of the Buchanna Group, and the truth would be covered.
She had to endure.
Aurora took a deep breath and looked at the servant.
She asked, “What will I have for lunch?”
Since she couldn’t leave, then she should enjoy herself. Even though she couldn’t make Zac go bankrupt, she had to take revenge.
During this time, Terry called Aurora a few times.
Aurora didn’t know how to explain to him, so she simply did not pick up the phone.
His engagement with Sara was his own business. Aurora had no right to interfere, and she never felt that Terry needed to explain anything to her.
Aurora didn’t want to fall in love again. She would rather hide like an ostrich.
Sometimes she thought that it was alright for her to stay in this empty villa. At least she didn’t need to pay for her meals which could save some expenses.
Two days later, when Zac returned from his business trip, he saw Aurora sitting on the sofa,
chewing on a crab.
He frowned and saw snacks piling up on the sofa.
He put his briefcase heavily on the table. He walked over and asked, “Do you only eat these
snacks?”
Aurora chewed the crab and said, “The servant said that I can eat anything I want. Didn’t you tell
her that?”
He did say that.
“Go change your clothes. I need to receive Mr. Oconnell and his wife here tonight. You need to play the show with me.”
Aurora replied very calmly, “I have no clothes.”
Then she smiled sweetly and added, “Let me go. I have clothes at home. I’ll go back and get it.”
“Well… If you leave, will you come back?” Zac sneered and pushed Aurora away with one hand. He
added, “The clothes are in the bag at the door. Mr. Oconnell has a good impression of you, and he is also very interested in whether the partner has a stable marriage relationship.”
“Then you should call Wenny over.” Aurora still took the snack. When she saw that he did not speak, she asked, “What if I refuse?”
“Then you will stay here for the rest of your life.”
His voice was extremely cold, and he seemed to be angry.
He was not joking.
“Then I have a condition.” Aurora gritted her teeth in anger.
“Say it.”
Two hours later.
Aurora was wearing a dress brought back by Zac. It was a purple dress with an elegant style, and she did not wear any jewelry. Her hair was simply tied behind her head. She looked pretty.
Zac was discussing business with Alfred.
Aurora accompanied Zac by the side. And Aurora occasionally chatted with Alfred’s wife.
Zac promised to reduce the debt by 150 thousand dollars. It was just a meal, so she could endure it.
“I originally thought that the one who will appear here tonight would be Miss Swon.” Alfred smiled gently. His words did not have any special meaning.
Aurora cut the steak and did not say anything.
Zac suddenly smiled and said, “It just so happens that Aurora came to find me, so I invited her to stay for dinner.”
Aurora was stunned.
Her mouth twisted a bit. Then she nodded her head in agreement.
She thought that Zac was good at acting.
“How’s your relationship? Can you still be friends after the divorce?” Alfred asked. But then, he added, “I’m sorry. Did I ask something I shouldn’t have?”
Hearing this, Aurora froze.
But she found that she no longer cared about it so much.
“Yes, we can be friends even though we divorce,” Aurora revealed a smile, not showing any signs of lying. She seemed to be sincere when she said these words.
Zac turned to look at her.
Aurora didn’t understand what Zac meant.
She didn’t care about it. Then she raised her glass and said with a smile, “Since we’re not a good
match, why should we be obsessed with the past relationship? I believe that Mr. Buchanna also thinks so, right?”
Zac did not move.
Aurora looked over in surprise. Under the table, she kicked Zac’s leg.
It was only then that he slowly turned his head and said, “Not really.”
Aurora was stunned. She thought, what is wrong with him?
She was so cooperative with his acting. How could he break it at this moment?
Just as she was thinking about how to explain, Zac said something that shocked her. “To be able to maintain this relationship, perhaps it’s because one of them wants to redeem it.”
Aurora’s mind went blank when she heard this.
Just as she was about to speak, Zac served a dish to her.
“Taste this one.”
Zac deliberately acted as if there was still a thing between Aurora and him to make Alfred and his wife think that he was a dedicated and affectionate man.
Aurora thought, for the sake of success, this man could really do anything.
For the rest of the dinner time, Aurora did not say a word. Because no matter what she said, Zac would try to show that he had a close relationship with Aurora.
“Mr. Buchanna, thank you for your hospitality tonight. We had a very good time.”
As Alfred said this, his wife smiled gently at Aurora. Tonight, she had hinted to Aurora countless times that if possible, Aurora should consider getting back together with Zac.
Aurora smiled in embarrassment.
If it wasn’t for the 150 thousand dollars, she would definitely expose Zac’s tricks in person.
She stood at the door and watched as Zac sent them off.
For a moment, Aurora couldn’t help but think about something.
She thought, if the Bennet family was still here, would we maintain a seemingly normal marriage like this?
As the car drove out of sight, Aurora retracted her gaze and returned to her room to change back into her own clothes. This evening dress made her very uncomfortable.
When Zac returned after seeing Alfred and his wife off, Zac saw Aurora sitting on the sofa waiting for him.
Zac asked, “Where are you going?”
Aurora walked over expressionlessly and lowered her head to change her shoes. She said, “Our deal is over, Mr. Buchanna, you need to keep your word.”
She helped him act this play, and he promised to reduce her debt. It was fair and square.
Zac became a bit angry. He grabbed her wrist with one hand and said, “Are you so eager for leaving?”
He thought that Aurora wanted to leave him and go to stay with another man.
Aurora rolled her eyes helplessly and said, “Zac, if you enjoy playing shows, go find your female star, and stay away from me.”
She did not have the time to play this boring game with him.
Aurora shook off Zac’s hand and left the villa as fast as possible. She was afraid that if she stayed any longer, something meaningless would grow in her mind.
Zac showed a cold expression. After a long time, he lowered his hand, and his gaze fell on the seat that Aurora had just sat on.
Zac thought, does she want to escape from me?
Aurora, this is my decision. You don’t have the qualifications to make the decision.
Alter leaving the villa, Aurora walked aimlessly on the street for three hours before she returned to the city from the outskirts.
She cursed him ten thousand times in her heart.
When she opened the door and went home, it was almost early in the morning. She was too sleepy and fell asleep in the bed.
The next day, when Aurora opened her eyes, there were more than a dozen unread messages on her
phone.
