Chapter 699: I will pay it back in the future.
Myles and Zane pushed their way through the crowd and immediately spotted Aurora standing in front
of the sink, looking pale with a fire extinguisher in her hand. Her eyes were fixed on the person lying on
the ground.
The man had a wound on his head, and blood was slowly flowing to one side.
"Is he dead?" asked Myles.
"He must have been hit on the back of his head. Look at all that blood," replied Zane as they heard
murmurs from the surrounding crowd.
Zane rushed towards Aurora, took a quick nce at the fallen man, then turned to Myles and said:
"Call an ambnce!"
Myles nodded and quickly grabbed his phone to make the call. He then checked for signs of breathing
from the fallen man - it seemed like he had just passed out.
Zane walked up to Aurora and demanded: "Give me that thing you''re holding."
Aurora looked startled upon hearing Zane''s words. She raised her eyes defensively towards him but
rxed once she realized who it was. She then dropped her grip on the fire extinguisher with a loud
thud onto the floor.
"I... I didn''t mean it... he started it," stuttered Aurora nervously as she spoke.
Zane picked up the fire extinguisher from where ity beside him while pulling Aurora closer by her
arm. "Are you hurt?" he asked while keeping an eye on both her face as well as that of their victim lying
nearby.
Aurora swallowed hard before answering nervously: "Did... did he die?"
"No, he just fainted," replied Zane shaking his head slightly in response to her question about whether
or not their victim was dead or alive
The police arrived shortly after this incident urred; they carefully lifted up our unconscious victim into
an ambnce before questioning Aurora about what happened inside Maple House''s restroom area
earlier today?
After reviewing surveince footage taken outside this bathroom area during these events leading up
until now (including when our middle-aged male assant first began attacking poor defenseless little
old me), authorities decided that although we should be allowed home for now - we are still forbidden
from leaving Manchester City until further notice is given byw enforcement officials involved in this
case! Aurora whispered, "He... he''s my boss. He said he wanted to discuss a coboration today, so I
came with him. But when we got here, he said the client couldn''t make it and suggested we have
dinner together. Halfway through the meal, he suddenly said he wasn''t feeling well and asked me to
apany him to the restroom... and then things went downhill from there."
Aurora needed some extra money for Wu Fen''s ongoing medical treatment which was bing
increasingly expensive. She had hoped that taking on some work would help her out but she never

expected something like this.
After listening to Aurora''s story, Zane didn''t say anything more. "Do you want us to take you back home
or do you need us to take you to the hospital?"
"No need," Aurora replied quickly. "I''ll go back by myself."
"We''ll give you a ride," Yanis interjected at just the right moment. "It''s not easy getting a cab at this
hour."
Aurora nced over at Yanis before looking away again.
Zane didn''t give Aurora any chance of refusal either as he spoke up again, "Yanis and I will wait here
while I go get the car."
Myles told Bonnie they were leaving before following Zane out towards where their car was parked.
"Yanis," Bonnie lowered her voice as she turned towards him after Myles left with Zane in tow. "There''s
a wedding nning job tomorrow that Linda can''t make it for because of cramps from her period
Yanis nodded his head slightly in agreement after hearing what Bonnie had proposed: "Sure thing! Just
meet me at D-King Castle tomorrow morning and we''ll drive over together."
"Okay," Bonnie agreed before turning her attention back onto Aurora who was still standing there
quietly beside them both: "So Miss Green…are you looking for work?"
Aurora hesitated briefly upon hearing Bonnie''s question before answering slowly: "I will have to start
looking again soon…but only once everything is settled."
"I might have something for ya," Bonnie offered kindly.
Yanis looked over towards his friend curiously as if asking silently what kind of job it could be?
"Ste mentioned recently that she''s been wanting another person working part-time down at her
shop," exined Bonnie further when seeing Yanis'' puzzled expression; "it''s located near City Center
Mall selling children''s clothing…would ya be interested?"
"I''ve never sold clothes before…I''m not sure if I''d be any good…" responded Aurora uncertainly.
"No worries!" reassured Yanis warmly; "If you decideter on that it sounds like something worth trying
out then let me know – I''ll bring ya along myself!"Aurora hesitated for a few seconds. "Okay, thank
you."
"Bonnie, let''s go," Yanis said as he waved goodbye to her and turned to Aurora.
Myles drove away and Zane pulled up beside them just as they were saying their goodbyes.
Yanis opened the back door for Aurora. "Get in."
Aurora thanked him softly before getting into the car.
The two of them dropped Aurora off at the entrance of No. 3 Hospital. Before she got out of the car,
Zane called out to her, "Wait a minute."
Aurora stopped and turned around to face him. "What''s up?"
Zane reached into his glovepartment and handed her a wad of cash. "Consider it borrowed money
from me until you''re financially stable enough to pay me back."
Aurora looked at the money in disbelief before hesitantly taking it from him. "I''ll pay you back someday."
Zane nodded once before offering her another opportunity, "If you need help finding work, I can have
someone look for something suitable."
"No need," Aurora replied softly."My sister-inw helped me find something earlier today."
At this point, Zane nced over at Yanis.
"Ste needs people right now so I suggested that she give it a try there instead since it''s better than
working somewhere unfamiliar where she doesn''t know anyone," Yanis exined.
Zane didn''t say much more but simply nodded his head slightly towards Aurora."Go on inside then."
Aurora thanked him again before turning around and walking into the hospital.
"They''ve been through quite a lot," Yanis said quietly as he watched Aurora disappear inside.
Zane nced in her direction once more but didn''t say anything else."Let''s go home," he said instead.
Yanis agreed with an affirmative grunt. They had been gone for so long that by now, it was almost ten
o''clock when they finally arrived back at D-King Castle
"Auntie, why aren''t you resting?" As soon as they walked through the door, Yanis was greeted by their
housekeeper who came up to meet them immediately upon hearing their arrival
"I was thinking about taking tomorrow off and going back home," Auntie replied respectfully
"How far is your hometown from here?" asked Yanis while Auntie found some slippers for him
"It''s not too far away; just Seacity."
