CHAPTER 502: SKEPTICAL

Charles pulled back slowly and wiped off the tears on Aurora's face.

"It’s going to be alright," he assured with a smile.

Aurora nodded once.

"Thank you." Charles nodded once.

"Can we hurry up and finish up? There's actually a business I need to attend to.But I will make it up to you later," he promised.

Aurora nodded once.

"Alright, should we go now?" Charles shook his head briefly.

"Let's have a few minutes of dinner. I'm still taking you sightseeing, remember? We can go anywhere you want." Aurora smiled.

"Alright, I won't forget."

Within a few minutes, Charles and Aurora stepped out after Charles has settled the bill.

Charles made a joke and Aurora found herself laughing so hard, forgetting there was any problem in the world.

"Can I drop you off?" Charles asked suddenly.

Aurora released a sigh.

"We were actually not able to sit very well for tonight.So, I would like us to take a walk instead.That is if you don't mind because you would have to leave your car here." Charles smiled.

"That's no problem actually.Let's do that.It's good anyways.We would be able to appreciate nature very much." Aurora grinned.

"You've been talking so much about nature.What would you have gone for if you weren't_," she hesitated and made a nod of her head.

Charles understood what she meant and laughed.

"Well, I've always been trained in the mafia ways since I was very young.I was taught to be strong and well, discrete and all others but," he stopped briefly and smiled.

"If I was allowed, I would have been in space by now, you know studying anything nature." Aurora nodded once.

"That's actually a very nice profession.You would have been exceptional in it." Charles smiled.

"What made you think so?"

He watched Aurora for a moment and noticed how she was rubbing her shoulder slightly.

The breeze could have been getting too much for her.

Charles pulled off his jacket and covered Aurora in it.

Aurora smiled with gratitude and relaxed.

"Would you still be able to have your dream job if I offer to help you financially?" Aurora smiled.

"Maybe, maybe not.I've lost purpose on earth.Maybe I would have committed suicide if I hadn't seen you this morning."

Charles‘ heart made a sudden thud in his chest at this.He felt a slight pain and wondered how it would have felt if he discovered that Aurora was actually dead.He knew he had to get Aurora before anything else.

Yet, he wanted it to come naturally.He wanted to convince Aurora and even convince himself.

"Can you do me a favour, Aurora?"

Charles stopped her suddenly.She looked at him.

"And what can that be?"

"Can I install something on your phone? Something that can show me your location? I mean whenever you feel like it.You just have to switch on your location if you want me to.Even if you are feeling down, just on your location and I will be there."

Aurora regarded him for a moment and saw the seriousness on his face.She liked the fact that Charles was showing her how much he cares.

"Alright," she smiled softly.

"I can do that," she decided and extended the food to him.

Charles took it and started working on it.

"What! The grill bar is open!" Aurora said suddenly and jubilated.

Charles finished what he was doing on the phone and followed the path of her gaze toward a roadside shop.

"That grill has been there before I left Jacksonville.But I know the owner would have closed.Maybe he has because he's not the one currently attending to customers now.If you taste his grilled

meat,novelebook.com you will always want to buy them.It's always delicious." Charles smiled.

"Should we buy some, then?" Aurora nodded briefly.

"Yes!" Charles held her hand and walked her to the stand. The aroma actually made Charles salivate.

"This is looking nice," he muttered.

The seller smiled.

"You are going to like it.I'm sure.Taste it."

Charles complied and chewed slightly.

When he was done, he had this big smile on his face.

"This is actually delicious!" Aurora laughed.

"I told you! Can we have three?" Charles shook his head briefly.

"Six!"

"Nice, no problem.Here," he gestured towards the prepared meats.

"I will go get something to drink," Aurora offered suddenly and started walking away before Charles would talk.

"This is so delicious.I think I'm going to buy more."

The man's smile widened, with pleasure and satisfaction.

Suddenly, Charles stopped and slapped himself mentally for letting Aurora go.He was supposed to be the one to go and get something for them to drink and not the otherwise.He was just too occupied with the grilled meat which wasn't supposed to be.But he couldn't even find Aurora anyways.

"Are you looking for your girlfriend? She seemed to have gone that way," the seller explained.

Charles bowed slightly and followed the path of instructions.

The street he found himself in was quite calm unlike where he was coming from and Aurora wasn't in sight.He stopped suddenly and picked up Aurora's right shoe. Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.

What the fuck had happened? And why did Aurora have one of her shoes in the middle of the road? He only had one meaning to it.

Aurora had been kidnapped.It was the only meaningful reason why her shoe was in the middle of the road.She must have been struggling with her attackers and had mistakenly pulled off her shoe.

Just then, a car drove past him at an alarming speed.

Grey regarded the car for a moment and knew that his instinct was confirmed.

Aurora had truly been kidnapped.He brought out his phone and realized that the location was on already.That was the second proof that Charles needed.Truly, Aurora's phone was moving which means that the phone was still with her after she was kidnapped.

All he had to do was follow the address to be able to get Aurora back.
