Chapter 137: Who is Her Husband?
While in the lobby.
Max was too shocked to hear Aurora’s words. Even after the call ended, he remained in place, staring at his cell phone.
Her words echoed in his mind: "Because my husband picked me up!"
Max wondered, ’Did I hear wrong?’ while suppressing the urge to type a short message asking her.
Countless thoughts swirled in his mind, simultaneously filling him with curiosity and anger.
’Aurora, why do you confuse me all day? Did you know you’ve made it impossible for me to concentrate on my work? Damn it! You torment my mind!’ Max expressed his frustration inwardly while looking at the scenery outside.
Max was skeptical about what he had heard. How could the girl marry after pursuing him just a few weeks ago, leaving him uncomfortable and disturbed?
However, he also didn’t want to ask her again. What if she had told the truth about her husband coming to pick her up?
After standing for some time by the glass wall, watching cars arrive one after another to pick up workers returning home from work, he took his cell phone from his trouser pocket and dialed a number.
A surprised voice came through on the other end, "Wow! Wow! It’s unusual to get your call, Maxwell... What’s going on, man?"
"David, where are you? We need to talk!" Max brushed aside David’s friendly greeting. He needed to see him to inquire about Aurora.
