NOVPUBChapter 1370: 646 Heart Way_4 Chapter 1370: 646 Heart Way_4 Looking at Digby Hart, he didn’t seem to have any intention to blame Alora for what happened, indicating that Alora didn’t really hold much importance in Digby’s heart.
Well, she was just an illegitimate daughter with questionable conduct, recognized by the family halfway down the road.
It didn’t really have any impact on Digby himself.
Alora was taken away, not caring about her public image, which then marked the end of tonight’s chaotic situation.
Everyone present sighed to themselves, thinking about how Alora had turned all her good fortunes into bad. 𝓷ℴ𝓿𝓹𝓾𝓫.𝓬ℴ𝓶
It seemed that she wouldn’t be causing any more mischief in the future.
“Today was quite a spectacle.” Bellona Capris took his leave with Birdie Capris.
...
Before leaving, Birdie looked towards Sanny Groove’s direction, showing his reluctance to leave, and then slowly limped away.
“Aubree.” Nana Breezent rushed toward Aubree and hugged her tightly, finally breaking into tears.
She was both scared and grateful.
Aubree had come to her rescue once again.
Aubree lightly patted her on the shoulder, “It’s okay, she won’t cause any more troubles for you.
Now, you and your brother can live in peace.”
Aubree handed Nana over to Digby,” Please comfort her.
She had quite a shock today.”
“I know.” Digby Hart moistened his lips: “Thank you, Aubree.”
His eyes were sincere, and his tone was earnest.
Aubree waved her hand dismissively: “I’m tired, I’m going home to sleep.”
Turning to leave, Sanny Groove caught up with Aubree.
She cast a glance at the man following behind and spoke in a whisper,” The man looks dignified.
Could he be your so-called cheap nephew?”
Titi Groove’s words were, “If you see a man who looks like a refined scoundrel, without a doubt, he is Agave Rinto, in name Aubree’s nephew.”
“Yeah,” Aubree acknowledged, then turned towards her mentor, “Tonight, I’ll be returning to the Rintos, I’ll have someone take you home.”
“No need, I’ll go back with my mother.
You don’t need to worry about me, I’m more concerned about you.”
The Rintos was a dangerous place indeed.
Aubree smiled, watching as Sanny and Maggie Wood leaving together in a car.
Then, she turned around.
“How long are you going to follow me?”
Leaning against a tree, Agave Rinto smiled lightly, “The night is comforting, would you like to take a walk with me?”
Aubree looked at him, “Already healed?”
Agave Rinto gave a smile, stepping forward to stand in front of her.
His eyes always held a profound affection when he looked at her.
“Are you concerned for me?”
With a helpless sigh, Aubree said, “When did you become like this?”
“I’ve always been this way, only now you noticed?”
Aubree ignored him and continued walking along the road, “How is the preparation for the fleet and the crew?”
Agave Rinto sighed, “Can’t you show a little more concern for me?”
Aubree halted, turned around to stare at him.
His heart raced under her calm gaze, causing him to back down first.
“By the end of this month at the latest, we can set sail.”
Nodded in acknowledgment, Aubree continued to walk, “I want to personally select some people.
This will be a long journey and the future is unpredictable.
As for the arrangements for the crew, you need to handle it carefully, ensuring they have no worries left behind.”
The person next to her suddenly stopped, but Aubree didn’t turn back and kept walking.
“Have you ever thought about yourself?
Do you have any idea how dangerous that place is?
It’s a thousand times more dangerous than you thought.
How am I supposed to let you go?”
The man’s voice, filled with anger and worry, echoed from behind.
“As a member of the Rintos, it is my responsibility.”…
“Stop using that grandiose reason to dismiss me.” Interrupted Agave Rinto, he quickly walked up to her.
His tall body blocked her path.
His presence almost completely enveloped her.
Under the street lamp, he saw their shadows snug together, creating a sense of intimacy.
That moment, his heart stumbled, an unexplainable urge swept over him.
Right now, he wished he could just throw caution to the wind, pull her into his arms, just once, acting out of impulse.
But he knew, he couldn’t.
That would only push her away.
He could only keep her by his side through this absurd familial relation of being her nephew.
Aubree stood still, quietly staring up at him.
Her gaze was so piercing, as if she could see through everything, making anyone’s ugliness seem so exposed under her scrutiny.
Agave Rinto awkwardly avoided her gaze, turning to the intersecting shadows on the ground instead.
“Agave Rinto, do you really want me to make things clear to you?
That would be rather pointless.”
Agave Rinto gave a self-mocking smile:” You are always so cold.
Sometimes, I even suspect whether you are a robot, void of emotions and tears.”
Aubree frowned, looking somewhat worn-out, “What you want, I can never give you.
So, you should just give up your wishful thinking now, to avoid getting hurt in the end.
We might not be family, but we can be partners.
Profit is far more reliable than silly emotions.
You’re a smart businessman, you should understand this.”
