Chapter 54: Facts

"I think you'd better forget about that woman," Mateo replied in a joking tone.

He didn't think highly of David, but his girlfriend, Jane, was a woman he dared not fight.

From his point of view as an ordinary rich man, the Rothschild Family was too far above, it could lead to disaster for him and his family.

He naturally didn't want Bastian to fall into trouble for somehow getting Jane into the mix.

Of course, he also found it strange why David had gone off with another woman.

Was this an affair? Or had he broken up with Jane?

Jane wasn't here today, even though it was only her second day at university, was there a reason for that?

However, despite the various speculations, Mateo felt that he should choose to act with caution for now.

"Mateo, you have to tell me who he is," Bastian replied in a colder tone.

Mateo had originally hoped Bastian would realize from his words that the opposition was too heavy, but it was clear the man's rationality was not functioning at all due to obsession.

Mateo was silent for a few moments before replying, "that guy is a nobody, but if you deal with him, you might as well deal with someone you can't possibly fight in any way."

Bastian wasn't completely arrogant, he sometimes regained his rationality after knowing there was a strong opponent.

Mateo hoped Bastian had calmed down somewhat after hearing that.

"So, who is that person I can't fight? I'm sure there aren't many people like that in Paris," Bastian replied.

His tone was a little calmer now, which was actually because he trusted Mateo enough as a friend.

"At the University of Paris, there were some pretty shocking things yesterday," Mateo replied, then he started to tell the man about David and Jane.

"Are you kidding, how can an ordinary guy be the boyfriend of a Miss Rothschild?" asked Bastian after hearing all of Mateo's story.

"That's the truth, that guy even got a 3 Million Euro watch from that woman. How he got her heart, I can't guess, but it's real. They also looked romantic," Mateo replied.

"And he went out with another woman when she wasn't around, what do you think happened, Mateo?" said Bastian.

"That I can't guess either. I suggest we wait until the lady from the Rothschild Family returns to this university," Mateo replied.

"I can't rest easy if that man is dining alone with Aurora in a private room."

"Don't overthink it, maybe they're just acquaintances, meeting to discuss something." Mateo tried to calm Bastian down by speculating.

After that, she tried to smile.

"Are you starting to consider a relationship with me?" she added.

"I was just wondering, did you meet someone recently?" David asked again.

He was sure that something had changed Aurora, and it must have been orchestrated by someone.

Not that David cared, but he needed to find out if there was another party involved.

If he knew that party, he could rest easy, but what if there were other enemies besides Chu Feng.

Instantly after getting the question, Aurora opened her lips so that the tongue inside her mouth could be seen.

It looked long and rosy, sexy, sensual, and seductive.

At the same time, Aurora thought, 'did he guess this? What should I say to him now? Tell him or lie?'

When thinking about lying, Aurora somehow felt uncomfortable.

Not that she took lying seriously, but lying to David seemed to be very different. It would affect her life in the future.

She pressed her lips together as she continued to think, looking at David and the windshield of the car alternately.

Because David kept staring at her, so she couldn't calm down.

Phew!

In the end, she sighed.

"Yes, someone came to me, her name is Mery, you should know her," she said, choosing not to lie.

When he heard about Mery, David suddenly immediately guessed what happened.

"Did she give you a job?" David asked.

"No, it's a partnership," Aurora replied hurriedly. "However, I'm serious about you, not just because of that. It's unavoidable because I need protection from them."

"I understand now." David nodded. "That means you no longer work for Chu Feng."

"You know that?" Aurora's eyes widened after hearing David's words, making her heart beat hard.

She was panicked and scared now.

"No need to think seriously, you are not at fault here, you are involved because of other people's bad intentions," said David.
