Trying to kick someone when they’re down?
They’d nearly finalized several major deals, and now Hunt Enterprises wanted to pull
something like this? What was that supposed to mean?
Aurora touched up her makeup slowly, then headed out toward Day Light House.
It was a private dining restaurant.
Many people chose to discuss business or close deals there because of the quiet, intimate setting.

Noticing this, Aurora chuckled, “Alright, snap out of it. I’m here on business today.”
Joseph’s neck flushed red at her words.
He quickly looked away, no longer staring so intently at her.
Aurora was well aware of her advantage.
Since she was meeting the stingy ex from before, why hold back? She might as well be as stunning as possible.
A woman shouldn’t hide her beauty for anyone.
