Chapter 613
Now that they were grown, they were still the kind of friends who shared everything, with no secrets between them.
When it came to this, it was easy for Megan to sense something was off. But the fact that her cousin was treating Aurora like this made her furious. If anything ever happened to Aurora, there was no way sheโd let it slide, even if she was genuinely afraid of her cousin. But so what? At the end of the day, her best friend mattered more. She could have a dozen cousins, but there was only one Aurora.
Megan, never the cautious type, didnโt realize someone was already following her.
Tessa and Julian, each dragging their suitcase, hid around the corner at the airport. They had already checked Meganโs flight and were planning to follow her abroad. That way, they could figure out exactly where Aurora was being hospitalized, and once they knew, theyโd find the right moment to inject her with the drug.
Julian sounded uneasy. โTessa, do you really think weโll be able to find out where Aurora is once we get there?โ
โOf course. As long as Meganโs there, whatโs there to worry about? Just donโt lose sight of her,โ she replied.
Julian pressed his lips into a tight line, still feeling uneasy. โBut even if we make it overseas, can we actually get close to the hospital sheโs in?" He laid out what had been bothering him. "And letโs be real, this isnโt like back home. We donโt know anyone over there.โ
Tessa glanced at Julian, irritated by his hesitancy. โOh, come on, weโre not even there yet and youโre already being negative?โ She snapped, โWe havenโt even started and youโre already shooting down our chances?โ What annoyed her most was Julianโs timid, small-minded attitude. It was the same thing that had made her question, again and again whether marrying him was even a good idea. After all, marriage was supposed to be for life. Tessa wasnโt about to gamble her entire future on a spineless loser.
That would be a massive loss for her, wouldnโt it? When it came to looks and family background, she was among the top in all of Ravenshore. As for Julian, well, heโd need to get in line.
With that thought, Tessa lifted her chin even higher, her whole demeanor brimming with arrogance. Julian saw how composed and confident she looked, assumed she had everything under control, and held his tongue.
โAlright, baby, Iโll follow your lead. Whatever you tell me to do, Iโll do it.โ
Hearing that, Tessa felt a bit more reassured. Julian suddenly seemed a little more tolerable.

โThatโs how it should be,โ she said with a smile. โIf you canโt handle it, then let someone who can. Donโt keep dragging things out.โ
After that, Julian stayed quiet and obediently followed behind her. The two of them kept their eyes on Megan, watching her every move.
Right then, Megan suddenly stood up. The two nearly jumped to their feet, thinking she was heading to board. But in the next second, they saw a stranger walk up to her. He had short, sandy blond hair and sharp, handsome features. There was a charming blend of boyishness and confidence in his looksโenough to turn heads instantly.
