Chapter Forty-Two

AURORA POV

I was surprised to see the news on social media concerning Alex and Nora's engagement party. I know that this is the time to let go and let Alex be happy and take full responsibility for his child. I got to the office to see the staff talking and feeling excited about the news and I could see the sad look Nina was giving me, I smiled forcedly at her. I was about to talk a step when someone called my name from behind and it caught everyone's attention, I turned to see Nora.

"Good to see you again". She said as she moved closer to me."well, I won't waste too much of my time with you, but I am here to let you know that it's time to back off, Alex and I are getting engaged soon and it's time to end whatever relationship you are building with him". She said and there was a murmuring coming from the rest staff.

I know they were shocked to hear what Nora said, Nina and Kessy moved to me.

" if that is all, I would like to head back to my office". I said.

"Of course, you may, but before you go, I would love to invite you to the engagement party". She smiles

I stared at her for a while and left for my office with Nina beside me and I could still hear the murmuring of the staff.

👩‍🦰" What? She is dating the boss?

👱‍♀️"I am surprised as you are".

👨‍🦱" I knew something was fishy with her and the boss".

I ignored their words and left for my office, I sat down with my head bowed to the ground.

"Don't take it too hard on yourself". Nina said and I raised my face to her smiling.

"Am fine". I wipe off my tears.

" Will you go to the party?".

"I guess, I am Alex's personal secretary, so I have to".

" Am so sorry this is happening to you".She sighs "You know what, I will go with you".

" Thanks". We smiled at each other and continued chatting.

ALEXANDER POV

I came over to Richard's office and we sat down discussing and chilling with a bottle of wine.

"Do you really have to do this?". Richard asked.

" I have no choice man". I replied sipping from my wine.

"What about Aurora?". He asked and I sighed.

" She is the last person I want to hurt in this life, I wish I could run away with her".

"No Alex, I won't advise you to do that and I know Aurora won't do it either".

" What do you have me do? I can't stay away from Aurora, I want her".

"I understand". he sighed."Well I hope things work out well soon enough". He added and we continued drinking

Later in the day, I didn't return to my office, I went back home trying to relax my mind. I freshened up and lay on the bed staring at the ceiling, then I got interrupted by Aurora's call, I sat upright and picked up the call.

"Hello? Alex". She said from the other end of the phone.

" Hey".

"I didn't see you at the office today, is everything okay?".

" If I say yes, will it erase everything, I am getting engaged tomorrow Aurora, to someone I have no affection for, you see, everything is not okay".

"Alex, I am sorry".

" Stop apologizing to me, I should make the apology, I hurt you badly and I regret everything I put you through, I don't want to lose you Aurora". I said sadly trying to control my tears.

"Alex, I know I promise to stick with you". She sniffed." I think is at time we let go".

"What? What are you talking about Aurora?". I asked standing up from the bed and I could hear her sniffing which meant she was crying.

" After your engagement with Nora tomorrow, I think we should call it quit, we will end whatever relationship we had".

"Aurora please don't!".

" I have to Alex, I think I am the reason you are not taking responsibility for your child, i don't want to be the block between your relationship with Nora, Alex I am sorry".

"Please Aurora, don't do this, I can't help it if you stay away from me". I panicked roaming around the room." Please!".

"Alex, am not leaving, I still have days to work with you, I am sorry we have to end this, is the only way, you have a family now, I know what you did was a mistake and I clearly understand, I won't judge you for it, but we can't continue, I don't want anything that will ruin your reputation and your family".

" Aurora".

"I will see you tomorrow". She hung up and I became devastated and I flipped my phone angrily.

" Please don't do this". I grunt in pain and rush out of the room, I enter my car and zoom off.

A few minutes later, I arrived at her house and knocked several on the door until her grandmother came out and I greeted her.

"How are you, my dear?".

" Am fine Granny, is Aurora home?".

"No, she is in her friend's place, and she will be spending a night there".

" Really? What friend?".
