The busness director position wasnt particularly high, but it was a leadership role. If someone like Aurora, who was will inexperienced, took it, it could reflect poorly on the Sage Group
Aurora did not expect Eliasto reject her. Her lieart giri mumb, and after taking a lite of her foort, she looked up and said, “Dad, I may not have mundersperience, but isn? Načini jast as inexprtietsed?“.
They both lacked experience, yet Naomi, who didn’t even have the Sage surname, had been given a deputy role. Aurora, the only daughter of the Sage family, couldn’t even take the top spot.
She turned her gaze to Evelyn. “Living the life of a rich wife has its perks, but I don’t want to be just stuck at home. Dad, you don’t want me like that,
Elias remained silent, but James thought for a moment and agreed that her point made sense. He cleared his throat and said. “Bring stuck at home bat good rather. You can’t see the scenery outside. Since you’re willing to go into the company, then go ahead. However, your dad also has a point. You really don’t have any experience”

James bring the most senior, spoke with authority. No one dared to argue. As a result, Elias had nothing more to say, and Evelyn was so angry that she lost het appetite..
Näoma poked at her food, glaring angrily. She wished she could push Aurora into her bowl and break her into pieces
She didn’t know how many things she had done at the company that Aurora could uncover. If James and Elias found out, the would not continue to live her carefree life.
Having achieved her goal, Aurora smiled. She felt she was one step closer to her goal. Only by joining the company would she know what had really happened, and then she could address the root of the problem.
Some were happy, while others were angry. Clearly, Maverick was the angry one. He had no appeune for food and was holding his anger un wuting for Aurora to explain.
During the meal, everyone was lost in their thoughts, not paying much attention. In the end. Maverick was the first to leave. His face wasn’t pleasant, and he didn’t bother with pleasantries with James. After finishing his meat, he put down his spoon and stood up.
“Mr. Sage. I have something to do later, so I won’t stay to accompany you”
With those words, he didn’t wait for James reply before leaving. Aurora was stunned but quickly said goodbye to her family, “I’ll leave now Grandpa Til come lack often to see you. I still haven’t figured out the things in your staily!”
Naomi suddenly dropped her spoon, her face paling with frustration. She couldn’t even get near the study, but Aurora was allowed to spend time there
Seeing that their expressions were not right, James did not stop them. He smiled and agreed. “Alright, when you’re back next time, we’ll discuss
Aurora nodded slightly and quickly chased after her husband. At this moment, Maverick had already left the house. He knew she was chasing after ham, Iat he didact slow down and got into the car before she could catch up.
Aurora took a deep meals outside before getting into the car with a smile. “Don’t be angry. I really want to go to work”
Maverick didn’t respond, and Aurora continued, “As you can see, they all think that I should be a rich wife. But I need to keep interacting with society. I don’t want to be out of touch with the world”

She pouted. “You don’t want me to know nothing, do you? I want a job where I can interact with the outside world, not just stay at home.”
Notaring to say the ral trason, Aurora looked into his ryrs, showing

“Do you really want to work?” Maverick finally couldnt hold back. He turned slightly to look at her.
Her makeup was light, barely noticeable, allowing her natural beauty to shine through. Her softly arched eyebrows gave her a relined, almost

This was the real Aurora, full of life. He shouldn’t be holding her back.
Aurora nodded eagerly. Truly want to go to work. I don’t want

She looked a bit lonely, as it being denied work would indeed make her feel trapped at home.
Maverick looked at her deeply and started the car without saying anything. Aurora blinked, wondering why he still hadn’t given in
When the glanced at him again, she could only see his cold profile, not even a full look at his face.
“Are you angry?” she asked.
Maverick looked in the rearview mirror as he steered onto the main road.
Aurora felt a bit anxious. She leaned closer to meet his gaze, saying. “Please don’t be angry, okay? I’ll make something delicious for you when we get back! You didn’t have a proper lunch either. What would you like to cat?”
She searched his eyes, hoping for even a hint of reaction, but there was none. They were as still as a lake, not a ripple in sight
“Are you thirsty Let me open a bottle of water for you” Seeing no response, Aurora took a bottle of mineral water beside her, opened it, and handed it to him. But still, he didn’t budge.
He drove on at a relaxed pace toward the island, showing no intention of conceding. He simply wasn’t going to let her work at the company. thinking. Isn’t it good to stay at home? Why does she have to go to work and get involved in those twists and turns?‘
If she were joining the Parker Group, he could at least protect her. But she wanted to go to the Sage Group, which was beyond his reach.
This realization left Maverick feeling somewhat discouraged. He wasn’t sure if he was more frustrated with himself for not being able to help or irritated by Aurora’s persistence. Either way, he couldn’t find peace in his heart.
Aurora offered him the bottle of water, but he turned his head away, she could to persuade, appease, and charm him.

Aurora’s eyes lit up instantly. “Of course! I need to work. I don’t want to
Maverick replied. “Then come to the Parker Group. I’ll let go of my secretary, and you can take her place.”
“A secretary? Aurora blinked in surprise. Is he actually agreeing to let me work
She clarified. “You mean you’re letting me go to work?”
