Chapter 44 Post-Traumatic Disorder The next morning, Aurora’s phone rang non-stop, waking her up. Walking in the rain last night, she felt dizzy. She opened her eyes to check the messages and missed calls. “Aurora, wake up. The paparazzi have reported you and Wenny.” “Don’t go out for the next few days. I’ll pick you up if you have to.” “Send a reply to me.” The messages were all sent by Terry. Aurora looked at the missed calls again, some of which were from her debtor. Aurora threw away her phone and tried to sleep again. But the phone rang again. The sound of vibration agitated Aurora. She took the phone and shouted, “Are you done yet? I have no money! Otherwise, I’ll pay you back.” no mo There was a silence. A cold voice came from the receiver. “If so, I can find you a job.” “Zac?” Aurora woke up in an instant. She looked at the number in disbelief. Some called early in the morning was him. It was 7:05. “I don’t need it. Goodbye,” Aurora said over the phone. Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.
Then she hung it up. A tall figure stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window. Zac glanced coldly at the screen and gripped his phone. She was always so stubborn.
hinking of Aurora’s tone, Zac got angry with his temple throbbing. His mood was ruined. He picked up his coat and took the private elevator downstairs. The door of the business car opened. Daniel and Martin came in. “Zac, all is prepared. This project will satisfy the partner for sure.” Their goal was to take down this project. “Drive,” said Zac with a dark face. Daniel asked Martin in surprise, “What’s going on? He was normal in the morning. Did Wenny irritate him again?” “I don’t know.” Martin turned to look behind. Daniel felt bored and looked at his phone. Daniel shouted as he saw the trending news. “Zac, have you seen it? Aurora beat Wenny!” Zac responded indifferently. “Do you want me to settle it?” “How?” Zac asked. “I’ll ask someone to… No, I’m not going to do so. I was just joking.” Daniel was frightened by Zac’s cold gaze. The surveillance video clearly showed that Aurora pushed Wenny with teasing words, but she didn’t hurt Wenny or the child in her belly with a sharp blade. Wenny hurt herself and deliberately slandered Aurora. Inside the dressing room of Star Entertainment. Wenny finished her hairstyle and immediately checked the phone to see how her fans and other netizens had scolded Aurora. But the truth shocked her. Only a few netizens were scolding Aurora. More fans wanted to know why Wenny attended that banquet while being pregnant. Some even mocked her for being hit by Aurora. “Damn! Terry must have hired online supporters for her.”
Wenny frowned and paced in the dressing room. She cursed, “Bitch! She ruined my image!” She called Zac again but didn’t get through. She had to call Carter. However, Carter said before her, “Miss Swon, Mr. Buchanna has boarded the plane. It’s inconvenient for him to answer the phone.” “He’s on a business trip again? Why didn’t he tell me?” Filled with anxiety, Wenny didn’t have time to think about it. She said, “Help me tell Zac that the news of Aurora hitting me upset me. My belly hurts” “Miss Swon, Mr. Buchanna knows. He hopes that you can take care and don’t go out. Don’t show up in the fashion week.” “What?” Wenny’s expression turned ugly. “Right now, the reporters are making a fuss. Mr. Buchanna can’t just block the news. I hope Miss Swon can be careful with your words and actions. Don’t cause any trouble for Mr. Buchanna.” Carter said as Zac ordered. But Wenny went furious. If it wasn’t for Aurora, the wedding wouldn’t have been suspended. She was supposed to be in Zac’s place now. Wenny finally realized something when Carter hung up. Zac was angry at her! Wenny gritted her teeth. “Why did you come out of prison? Why did you appear in front of Zac?” Wenny found a secret number on her contact list. It was a friend she had known before her debut. He was a leader of a well-known gang. She remembered that the Bennet family still owed debts. Wenny smiled coquettishly and dialed that number, “Nick, it’s me, Wenny.” Carter immediately reported what Wenny said to Zac. “You handled it well,” Zac said tiredly. Carter nodded and quietly left the business class.
The plane glided forward slowly. Zac leaned back, closed his eyes, and gripped the armrest tightly. His breath grew heavier. Ever since his parents died in an accident, Zac would have heartache and an illusion of suffocation when the plane took off at a high speed. Zac had to rely on his willpower to survive taking a plane on his business trip. The Psychiatrist said that it was post-traumatic disorder. Zac was unwilling to accept the fact that his parents had died. “Dear passengers, the plane has reached the cruising altitude.” Zac opened his eyes again. There was sweat on his forehead. His eyes turned cold. The pain the Bennet family brought him would never disappear in his entire life.
