All Chapters of Our Agreement: Chapter 181 - Chapter 190

Patricia took a sip of the red velvet drink that Aura had just made for her fifteen minutes ago, distracting her attention from the screen of her fourteen-inch Chromebook which she had now closed after she spent almost four full hours staring at her laptop screen while stretching her stiff muscles. Well, she should better take her time to rest. Or in other words, it was another way for her to try to escape from the deadline which was only a week away. Long story short, she was using her time right now to escape from reality. The target word count she set for her work today was two thousand five hundred words, but the fact which was displayed in the upper right corner of her PureWriter app only showed her that she only managed to write one thousand two hundred words so far. The number was still quite far from the target, she had to admit, but her brain was already stuck, so it was difficult to come up with new ideas that she could incorporate into her story. It seemed

She looked at the man who now had a gentle expression on her. The man then propped his chin on his right hand, which was leaning on the cafe table, with his two bright brown eyes looking straight at her. It gave her an uncomfortable sensation, so she drifted away from the man who was her rival when they were in high school. “What are you––” “I have a younger sister,” the man continued, not paying attention to the confusion evident on her face that clearly could be seen right now. “My younger sister’s name is Hazel Skylar. She is cute, very genius, reliable, and soft-hearted. My mother really wanted her to be the heir to our family business. But the thing is she has absolutely no interest in continuing my family business even though my mom always pushed her to accept the position.” Derek's words piqued his curiosity, so this time he decided to give Derek his full attention. “And, I also have a super genius older brother who is a jerk, always playing ar

  "Derek? Wait a moment. Did I just miss something? Why did I hear the name Derek from your mouth, Aura Chen?”   There was no sound from Aura after hearing his question. Only the silence and the faint sound of people talking in the cafe as the new background of their call, making him even more irritated. What was with the people around him?   Give him a break…   He massaged between his eyebrows after taking a deep breath, squealing in annoyance when he found Cecilia still in the room.   "Why are you still here?"   "What? You mean I have no right to be here?” Cecilia instead replied to his question in a tone that was just as curt as her, standin

  On the balcony of her apartment, Aura leaned half of her body against the back of the balcony. Her fingers tapped on the balcony railing, suppressing the old urge to smoke that she had suppressed since two years ago so as not to tempt her to smoke again. Her thoughts were frantic, still on what Katherine had said a few hours earlier when she called her.   “Alan just arrived at our headquarters, but his condition was in bad shape. The medical team is trying to treat his wound right now. Keith asked me to call you and ask you to stay at the cafe. You need to make sure that everything continues to run normally so the enemy does not get suspicious."   She bit her lower lip, suppressing the anxiety that was growing in her mind.   “You idiot! What are y

“A lot of things happened before we came here,” Keith replied nonchalantly, walking straight into his apartment after taking off his shoes without waiting for her to give permission to enter her apartment. "And I do not want to even talk about it. Where is Marie?"   “She is inside, Boss. Safe and sound, no injury. Inside the living room.”   “Good,” Keith breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing her words, patting him on the shoulder a few times. “Grazie, Aura [Thanks, Aura].”   Before she allowed the man who was her boss at both of her workplaces to walk into his apartment any further, she managed to grab Keith's arm quickly. “Before I let you see your wife, answer my question first, Boss.”   "You sure
