The discussion went quite long and since Aurora didn't have anything to do, she play with her phone. More like continue on working using her phone. Just when she was about to send an email to her other branch, there's a message from the lawyer that she hired to settle her divorce matter. She frown and had a feeling something happen. She open the message only to make her frown even deeper.
'He's not here.'
That's what her lawyer send her. She call her lawyer straight away to confirm the matter. It was already evening. The office will be close in several minutes. But Cole made no show. After the talk with her lawyer, it was confirmed. There's no news from Cole Bryson and the process cannot be proceed at the moment since the document is with Cole.
"Hey Carl, do you have news from your brother?" She thought he might encounter something because her heart suddenly feel unease.
"No. Why?"
"He didn't come for the divorce process. Somehow i had a bad feeling about it so i thought you would know."
"What? You should ask my grandpa about that. Speak of the devil." Carl point towards Mr Wayne who was walking anxiously towards them.
"Cole got into an accident, again." Mr Wayne said as soon as he reach towards Aurora. Others went quite and just knew something must have happened along the way but they still look at Aurora's who's still looking calm as if it has nothing to do with her. No one could predict what's inside her heart.
"Where is he?" She asked after a whole minute of silence.
"Taken to City A Hospital. My family just informed me about the matter. Aurora..." Mr Wayne hesitate for a while. Unsure what to say at the moment. No matter how frustrated he is with his grandson but he's the one that he dotes on the most. The one that he cared.
"Take Carl with you. I'll handle the rest. We haven't gotten our divorce yet. No matter what, he's still my husband at the moment." Aurora said calmly. Mr Wayne nodded and left to pack his stuff. While Carl look at her as if wanting to confirm something.
"Aurora, did you find out something?" He asked after Mr Wayne is out of ears.
"Someone is trying to kill him. They've been trying for a couple of times and i'm close to find out who the person is. What i do know, you can't trust anyone in your family." Carl went silence. He knew the endless fighting for power and the conflict in his own family but he never imagine it was to this stage. He nods his head before setting off followed by his grandfather.
"What do you want us to do?" Tristan asked looking at her who's in deep thought.
"Find out the cause of his accident and something else. I have my suspicion but i'm hoping it's not true. That family is full of trap."
"What are you going to do? Will you return to his side?" Derek who had been her side for the past three years somehow knew the gist that's happening in the house.
"As for now, i'll continue handling the business and monitor his condition once in a while. I'm still his wife. As long as i still have the title as his wife, it's not within my nature to ignore it."
Hearing her reason, they accept it as it is. There must be a reason why Aurora decided to keep on protecting Cole even if they're no longer in relationship. Now that the divorce is not happening yet, she have her reason to stay by his side.
"We'll always be there for you." Tristan rub her head and smile at her. Aurora smile back.
She will always be thankful meeting them in her life. They are her family. Her source of strength. And with that bond she depended on them covering up the imperfection in her life.
