Chapter 594: Ulterior Motives (Extra Story)
To avoid the rush hour traffic, Aurora deliberately took a longer route to get here.
This coastal road added a full thirty minutes to her journey home.
Because of this, most commuters preferred to avoid it, and parts of the road weren’t exactly easy to navigate.
Aurora frowned. Her car had broken down in the middle of nowhere, with no shops or houses in sight, and she had no idea how to fix it.
She tried starting the car a few more times, but it wouldn’t budge. With no other option, she got out, lifted the hood, and stared at the engine, completely clueless.
"Better call Eleanor and ask her to send someone over. It’s unlikely we’ll find a cab out here," Aurora said, glancing around as dusk gradually settled over the horizon.
Dominic nodded and reached for his phone, but just then, the sound of a car horn came from behind them.
Both Aurora and Dominic turned to look. Aurora had been wearing a mask and sunglasses ever since she left her neighborhood, so she wasn’t worried about being recognized.
A black Mercedes had pulled over, and when the doors opened, the sight of the two women stepping out surprised Aurora.
"Miss Taylor, you’re taking this route too?" Dominic was slightly taken aback but quickly greeted them with a smile.
Aurora gave a polite nod. "Miss Taylor, what a coincidence."
