Chapter 1006: 472 Provocation_2 Chapter 1006: 472 Provocation_2 As the conversation ended, she stood up and headed upstairs.
Only after Aubree Groove’s figure disappeared into the building entrance did Anton Cook step forward, assuming an overbearing stance as he glanced down at Agave Rinto.
“I’ve heard Mr.
Rinto is rather busy these days, but it seems you have quite a bit of free ti.”
Agave Rinto laughed with a hint of disdain in his eyes, “Nothing compared to you, Mr.
Cook.
Always following our Aubree around, soone could mistake you for her bodyguard.”
‘Our Aubree’…
Anton Cook scoffed, slapping his phone down in front of Agave Rinto, “Look who’s playing two different characters.
...
Stop pretending and explain what’s going on here.”
Agave Rinto looked at the phone, his pupils contracting slightly.
“Tomorrow afternoon, these people are organizing a demonstration, demanding the police to take action against Aubree.
I wonder how you’ll handle it.”
“The damage done to Aubree’s reputation cannot be wiped away by simply calling it a misunderstanding.”
“If you don’t put your house in order, don’t bla for not showing any rcy.”
By the ti Aubree returned from downstairs, Agave Rinto had already left.
Confused, she looked towards Anton Cook.
Anton Cook scoffed, “He’s gone to clean up the ss.”
Aubree replied coolly, “Are you free tomorrow night?”
Anton Cook paused for a mont, “Yes, I am.”
“There’s an event.
Would you accompany ?”
Anton Cook pointed at himself, “You really want to go with you?”
This was the first ti Aubree had invited him, sothing Anton Cook hadn’t dared to imagine.
“I watched one of your docuntaries, you have an interest in archaeology.
Seeing different things can be helpful for your songwriting.”
During this period, he was composing music for the movie “Flas” on his own, while others had a whole team.
This required a vast storage of inspiration, which is elusive and can only be ignited through extre collision.
Another reason…
Aubree looked at Anton Cook.
She couldn’t explain it.
She just felt that he should go.
Anton Cook was so shocked he couldn’t speak.
His focus was on the fact that Aubree had watched his docuntary…
Anton Cook was overwheld by this pleasant surprise.
“I will go.”
“Good, I’ll call you when it’s ti tomorrow.
Let’s have dinner now.”
‘Tomorrow’?
Anton Cook quickly regained his senses, “You cannot go out tomorrow.”
He couldn’t let Aubree know about those lunatics.
Aubree shook her head with a smile, “The demonstration?
Don’t worry.
I won’t be scared.”
——
The lawyer, Yan Jia, was quite efficient.
In less than a day, all proceedings were completed.
In contrast, the police were very cooperative.
They released Vanessa Aria without any difficulty.
It seems the police didn’t want to offend the Arias, but they were oblivious to the fact that they had severely offended Ms.
Aria and Mr.
Aria.
As Vanessa Aria walked out of the detention center, Secretary Baker opened the car door.
“Miss, your flight is booked.
I will take you to the airport.
Mr.
ƝοѵǤᴑ.с0
Aria is very worried about you.”
Vanessa Aria shook her head, her silence was disquieting.
Secretary Baker took a phone call, spoke a few words, then handed the phone to Vanessa Aria.
“It’s Mr.
Aria.”
Vanessa Aria took the phone; a worried man’s voice ca from the other end, “Vanessa, are you okay?”
“Big Brother, thank you.” Vanessa’s voice was overly calm, making Matthew Aria frown.
“I apologize.
I shouldn’t have dragged you into this.”
Vanessa squinted, her voice choking with restrained emotion.
“Big Brother, I’ve never been humiliated like this.
How can I go on living?”
She could only rely on Matthew’s guilt because his career was his sole focus.
This was paving the way for her future.
Matthew’s heart skipped a beat, “Vanessa, don’t do anything rash.
Think about our mother, think about , and think about Charlotte.”
Vanessa chuckled bitterly, “As a mber of the Aria family, I don’t even have the ability to take revenge.
What use am I as the daughter of the Aria family?
I’d be better off dead….”
Matthew hurriedly said, “Don’t be impulsive.
I’ll help you get revenge.”
Vanessa’s eyes turned cold as ice, “I’ll take my revenge myself.
Big Brother, you don’t need to interfere.”
She ended the call abruptly and tossed the phone to Secretary Baker.
Vanessa looked Secretary Baker up and down, “Secretary Baker, how long have you been with my brother?”
Secretary Baker lowered her head, “Twelve years.”
“That’s about the sa ti I returned to the Aria family.
