Chapter 1172 I Will Definitely Come Back

"Every time, it's always me making the first move. I thought you didn't like me, that you were just bored and lonely, and when a pretty girl pursued you, you agreed." 

"But I really like you, so much that when I saw you for the first time, I wanted to marry you. When you saved me from the robbers, I thought, if I could be with you, I would give up everything, even my identity as a daughter of the Price family."

Derek was somewhat moved, "Aurelia."

Aurelia said, "Promise me, you will definitely come back, you will definitely come back to marry me."

"I will definitely come back to marry you, Aurelia."

"When are you leaving?" Aurelia knew she couldn't keep Derek.

"I'll leave tomorrow."

Aurelia lowered her eyelashes and tightly held Derek's hand, "I have a surgery in the afternoon and can't take leave. I'll be free in the evening. Come to my place tonight, I'll cook for you."

"Okay."

Aurelia lived in the Price mansion, but she also had a cozy little apartment outside.

In the afternoon, Derek said he needed to go back and prepare. 

After eating, Aurelia also had to work. She had two surgeries in the afternoon, one to observe and one minor surgery to perform herself. 

By the time she finished, it would be the end of the workday.

Her phone rang; it was Savannah Faith calling.

"Aurelia, are you off work?"

"Just got off, Mom. I have something to tell you. I'm going shopping with a colleague and won't be coming home tonight. I'll stay at my colleague's place."

"Not coming home tonight?" Savannah was worried. 

"Aurelia, you've never stayed out overnight before. This won't do. Where does your colleague live? I'll have the driver pick you up. It doesn't matter how late it is."

"Mom, I observed a surgery today, the attending physician's surgery. Tonight, I need to study and review with my colleague. We have a lot of details to discuss, and I need to practice suturing. My colleague's place has all the equipment." 

"Mom, I've been working outside for a while now, and I want to build good relationships with my colleagues."

Savannah hesitated for a moment, "I know you want to rely on your own efforts. Alright, rest early tonight. You have work tomorrow. Call us if you need anything."

"Thanks, Mom." Aurelia kissed the phone.

Savannah laughed, "Aurelia, didn't you meet the youngest son of the Reynolds family recently? How are things between you two?"

Thinking of Nicholas, that playboy, Aurelia felt nothing good. 

That man, aside from having a handsome face, was a complete waste and a womanizer who flirted with every woman.

"Me and him? We have no contact. Mom, he's not my type!" 

She liked the kind of man who was handsome, gave her a sense of security, and could protect her in dangerous situations. 

Thinking of this, Aurelia blushed, remembering Derek.

"Not liking him is fine. Now, the Reynolds Group is managed by Cassidy, who has an illegitimate child. The Reynolds Group will belong to that child in the future. Nicholas is just an abandoned son of the Reynolds family. We didn't think it through when we arranged the blind date."

Savannah continued, "This Saturday, the second son of the Howard family is coming back. Why don't you meet him?"

Aurelia pouted, "Mom, you're just making random arrangements."
