Chapter 86: Alex Finally Arrives
Aurora shook her head to respond and received a sigh of relief from Josh.
"With my current condition, I can’t attend tomorrow’s birthday party. Could you ask the doctor for assistance? Perhaps they can give me a notice to take a week off to rest?" she said softly, her voice filled with hope.
Josh shrugs, feeling pity for her. "I’m sorry, but I can’t. Boss Alex is already aware that you can go home tomorrow."
Aurora was left speechless.
"You’ve already told him?" she asked in shock, staring him in the eyes. Even without his words, she understood his response, noticing the worry in his eyes.
"For goodness’ sake, Josh! Why on earth did you tell Alex for? You’re digging your own—"
Her words stopped when the door finally swung open, and Alex appeared behind it, staring back at her.
As she gazes into his sharp, deep eyes, which seem to hold a thousand secrets, she experiences a flutter of emotions, feeling as if part of her soul is caught in a gentle struggle.
A wave of nervousness engulfed her, leaving her uncertain about how to react.
"Damn it, Aurora! How could I not call Boss Alex? You were struck on the head and passed out before me! If anything goes wrong during your surgery, Boss Alex will be furious and direct his wrath toward me... You have no idea how terrifying the Boss is when he’s angry."
Josh can’t help but express his frustration. He is unaware that the person he is talking about is standing behind him, and he fails to notice Aurora’s signal to stop speaking.
