Chapter 425

: Nor meant to be

"I'm not leaving.Call the manager.If he wants me to leave,then I will,"

Grey said stubbornly "You don't want to leave? Then, face the security."

The salesperson with Grey saw that everything was going bad.So, she rushed to the telephone and
placed a call to the manager.He picked it up immediately.

"Yes, hello Manager.There's an issue here and I will like you to intervene.Thank you so much," she
finished and hung up.

What she didn't know was that the Manager had already seen Grey and planned to come downstairs
already.

Two security stepped forward, What's happening here?"

"Make him leave!" The older salesperson ordered.

"Step aside!"

A deep voice muttered suddenly stopping the security guards on their way to Grey.

The manager stepped forward.He hesitated to look at Grey.

Actually, the manager was part of the mafia lord in Italy.

He had a very important appointment was why he wasn't at Maximo's company.

But he promised to show up at the get-together.



But Enzo did him the favor of taking his picture and sending it to him so he wouldn't make the mistake
that he made.

And to even think Grey was still wearing the same clothes made it all easier for him.

"You want to drive out a customer because he wants the same clothes as you?" the manager asked the
billionaire incredulously.

"That's not how we do things here."

The billionaire sneered and reached for his wallet, pulling out a wad of cash.

"I'll make it worth your while," he repeated.

But the manager was not swayed."I'm sorry, but we can't do business with someone who would treat
another customer this way.You're going to have to leave."

Enraged, the billionaire refused to budge.

"You can't do this to me, "he shouted.

"I'll have you all fired! My father sponsors this place! You can't chase me out!"

But the manager stood his ground.He felt very annoyed.

The president and he has a deal actually.So, there was nothing his son would do to him.He moved
closer to the president's son angrily and slapped him.

The sound echoed through the boutique, and everyone froze.

The billionaire recoiled in shock, his hand flying to his cheek.He looked at the manager with disbelief,
unsure of what had just happened.



The manager remained calm and composed, but his eyes burned with anger.

"You're leaving now," he said firmly.

"And don't ever come back."

With that, the billionaire stormed out of the boutique, his head held low in shame.

The salespeople looked at each other in awe, amazed by what they had just witnessed.

Grey, who had been watching the whole scene unfold, couldn't believe what he had just seen.

As the billionaire disappeared out the door, the manager turned to Grey with a smile.

"Now, let's get you fitted for some new clothes, " he said, leading Grey back to the racks.

He hesitated and looked at the older salesperson.

"And you are fired!"

Grey was surprised.

Why would the manager take his side? As Aurora and Charles sat under the starry night sky, they felt a
deep connection that seemed to transcend time.

They had only met less than 24 hours ago, but it felt like they had known each other for years.

Aurora couldn't help but feel a strong attraction to Charles, but she also sensed that he was still unsure
about his feelings.

Or maybe he doesn't even love him.

They stayed together the previous night actually and everything was fine.



It was very late into the night and Aurora found a secluded place for them to be.

Charles was able to kiss Aurora yesterday but he hadn't further it or even tried it again.He was still
trying to find out what he was feeling.He wasn't sure, especially because he had always loved
Aphrodite all his life.He had always thought it would get better between them but it never did.

Charles turned to Aurora, his eyes searching hers, "I'm still confused.I don't know what to think of
this.How can I be feeling this way about someone I've just met?"

Aurora smiled softly, "I know it sounds crazy, but I feel the same way too.There's just something about
you that draws me in.It's like we've been waiting for each other all our lives, and now we've finally
found each other."

"So, you said you would love to be a baker," he waited for Aurora to respond before he continued.

Aurora nodded briefly.

"But would that also be in Italy? Or would you come to Jacksonville?"

Aurora looked away for a moment as different thoughts collide in her mind in some sort of crazy
confusion.

It was her dream but there was no way she could leave without Maximo's order.

If she runs away, Maximo would hunt her down.

"Yes, I will go to Jacksonville," she looked away to hide the tears on her cheeks.

"I've missed my parent so much.So, if I would be going to school or do anything.I would like it to be in
Jacksonville."

Charles nodded once.



"That's actually nice.I'm sure you will do perfectly well."

Aurora wiped the tears off quickly.

"You haven't gone home since yesterday.Is that fine? I mean_," she hesitated and try to swallow the
large lump in her throat.

"I might be seeing Maximo tonight." Charles huffed.

"No, you are not."

Aurora looked up at him.

"I can't defy his order."

"You will be defying his order by showing up." Aurora raised confused brows at him.

"What do you mean?"

Charles smiled.

"Maximo has granted your freedom.You are free to go anywhere you want.You are free to even go to
Jacksonville."

At first, Aurora found it difficult to believe.

"What, are you sure? Is this supposed to be a joke?" Charles laughed.

"I'm afraid it's not.Hercules demanded your freedom yesterday.This was what Aphrodite told me last
night," he explained.

"What!"



Aurora jumped up in joy and happiness.

"Oh My! I'm so happy!"

She hugged Charles before she could think of what she had done.She pulled away immediately after
she realized it.

"Sorry about that.I was just so happy."

Though they kissed yesterday, Aurora still felt uncomfortable doing things with Charles.

She didn't want to forget the fact that Charles knew he was Maximo's mistress.He might not get
interested in her because of that.She didn't want to stress it.

"So, tell me more about your life in Jacksonville," Charles asked again, his gaze on her.

Aurora took a deep breath and started talking.

As they talked, the distance between them seemed to shrink, until they were sitting so close that their
bodies were touching.

Aurora's heart raced as she felt the warmth of Charles' body.

Without a word, Charles leaned in and kissed Aurora gently on the lips.

The kiss was tentative at first as if testing the waters, but it quickly deepened into something more
passionate.

As they pulled away, Aurora looked at Charles with love and adoration bean in her eyes, "I know it's
crazy, but I think I'm falling in love with you."

Charles smiled, "Really?"



He stroked her hair slowly.

Aurora smiled softly and stood up, a bit anxious.

"I have to be somewhere.There's a place I have to be at this moment."

She saw the change in Charles’ expression and it saddened her.

Maybe something wasn't meant to be no matter what.
