55. No Problem

"Maybe he's so busy that he can't pick up my phone," Aurora muttered as she put her phone on the nab.

She picked up a novel on the table and has been reading it for the past few days. She does all of this to relieve her boredom because Igor does not want to see her.

Aurora picked up her phone, which was on the nightstand, and saw who had sent her the message. She opened the envelope and read the message Celine had sent.

"Tonight's event is postponed," Aurora muttered while replying to Celine's text message.

After replying to her message, she lay down and went back to reading the novel. However, it didn't last long, so she decided to leave the castle.

She asked a bodyguard to pull out a motorbike for her. Aurora saw Juan, who was about to leave as well. She waited until the man left the castle.

Aurora took her phone and looked at the incoming message. She also read it. After that, she ran the motorbike out of the castle and headed to the place that she had set after getting a short message just now.

Moments later, she stopped her bike after arriving at Stela's house. She immediately went inside and saw several women at work and some cleaning weapons.

"Where is Stela?" asked Aurora to a woman in front of her.

"She was in her office. Do you want me to take you there?" the woman replied and ended with a question to Aurora.

"No need. I can go there myself," Aurora replied, and then she walked over to Stela's office.

Aurora continued to walk and stopped her steps while in a room. That room is Stela's workspace, and Aurora was about to knock on the door but was underused because she heard Stela's voice talking to someone.

She intends to leave because she doesn't want to disturb Stela, who is talking to someone. However, she stops her intentions when she hears a familiar voice.

"What is the relationship between the two of them?" muttered Aurora while continuing to listen to the conversation in the room.

Aurora rushed to hide when she heard the sound of someone from inside the room walking closer to the door. She saw the door open and someone coming out from inside. It wasn't long before she saw Stela outside from inside the room.

"I don't know if you know him so well," Aurora said, which surprised Stella a bit.

"You're here? How are you doing?" asked Stela while smiling at Aurora.

"I'm fine. You haven't answered my question yet," Aurora replied while continuing to stare at the woman in front of her.

"Come in! I'll tell you inside," continued Stela as she walked into her office.

Aurora walked into Stela's office. She sat on the sofa right in front of her friend. She stared at Stela intently, wanting to know her relationship with the person who had just left the room.

"Since when did you know him?" Aurora asked Stella again.

"When you are in danger and are saved by your lover."

Aurora leaned back on the sofa while listening to Stela's explanation. She didn't think that Stela would have any further relationship with that person.

"Are you sure of your relationship? Have you also found out everything about him?" asked Aurora after she heard Stela's explanation.

"I don't know. So many secrets are being hidden from me. However, for some reason, I can't just let it go."

Aurora saw Stela sigh. It was only this time that she saw the woman in front of her, who had been made dizzy by a man, even though Stela was a firm and tough woman in every decision she had made.

"Do you really love him?" Aurora asked Stella again.

"I don't know if this is love or not."

Aurora shook her head. She was silent for a moment and then took her cell phone out of her jacket pocket. She saw Igor's short message and read it.

She was a little relieved that her lover was okay and apologized to her for not picking up the phone from her. Aurora also replied to Igor's message that she was currently at Stella's house and would not be leaving later in the night because Celine had postponed her schedule.

"Aurora, have you heard from you, Odelia?" asked Stela to Aurora, who had just put her phone in her jacket pocket.

"This morning, she contacted me and asked if the mission was not finished. Stela, do you know about the mission this time?" replied Aurora, and then she asked Stela again.

Aurora sees Stella shaking her head and says that she doesn't know about Odelia's mission. In fact, Stela is also curious about Odelia's mission today. Aurora sighs after hearing Stela's answer.

"Aurora, are you sure you're going to leave your job as a hitman?" Stella asked Aurora again.

"I'm already convinced of my decision to quit my job as a hitman. My life is a little quiet because people underground think I'm dead," Aurora replied confidently.

Aurora looked at Stela, who was speechless after hearing her answer. She wondered if the woman in front of her also wanted to escape from the underworld. In other words, Stela would quit her job as a hitman.

"Do you want to work with me?" asked Aurora to Stela.

"Where do you want me to work? Do I have to work for one of your father's companies?"

Aurora shook her head. She said that she wanted to open a small café. Although the plan existed a few years ago, she intended to resume it only now.

"The café will be run entirely by Odelia and me. If you want to join, then you will also take part in running it," Aurora said to Stella again.

Aurora has indeed had a dream since childhood to own a café with her hard work and not from her father's legacy. However, only this year will she realize it.

"How are you interested?" Aurora asked Stella again, who looked like she was thinking about her wish just now.

"I...."

Before Stela could continue her sentence, there was a gunshot from the outside of the room. Aurora and Stela were surprised. The woman immediately took the weapon behind the table and threw a gun at Aurora.

"Who dares to attack?" muttered Stela as she walked out of the room.

Aurora also followed Stela, who had been running first. She also protected her friend from behind. She again heard the sound of gunshots and the screams of women who were full of anger.

"We scattered," Aurora told Stela.

Aurora went in the other direction after seeing Stela's head nodding. She saw one person in all-black clothes with their face covered so that only the two eyes could be seen.

She saw the man pointing the weapon at her and ready to fire the bullets. However, Aurora moved quickly and shot the person, and the bullet that went out of his gun managed to lodge in the person's head.

The intruders were successfully eliminated one by one. Aurora then approached Stela, who was standing in the middle of the room with the two remaining women.

"What's the current situation?" asked Aurora to Stela.

Before Stella could answer, Aurora signaled for the woman not to speak. She felt a strange sound that was still vague. However, she could tell if it was a time bomb.

"You guys can't run away from here! You all have to die!"
