Aurora stopped him at once.
"No. If you do that, it will draw attention to me. People will start wondering who I am. It is safer if I travel alone. I know how to take care of myself. I am good at fighting, too, remember?"
Spencer looked at her for a moment. Her words reminded him of her skill.
She was indeed capable of defending herself.
Though part of him still felt uneasy, he decided not to press the matter. He nodded slowly.
"All right," he said. "Be careful."
Aurora gave him a reassuring smile. She said goodbye and finally left.
When she reached her apartment, she felt waves of tiredness washing over her.
She rested for a while, letting her body recover a little before her journey back.
Later that night, she made her way to the airport. Despite her fever, she moved steadily, her expression calm. She boarded a first-class flight again.
As she settled into her seat, she noticed someone familiar.
It was the same businessman she had met during her earlier flight.
