Chapter 15 Are You Pretending?

Book:Please Let Me Go, Mr. Sheridan Published:2024-8-20

Briar chose a red dress for her just to post his own updates. He secretly took a few photos of Aurelia and happily posted them on his social media account.
“You look amazing! Aurelia, if you weren’t my buddy, I would definitely ask you out on a date! Uh… But there’s some work that needs to be done on your small boobs! Otherwise, this dress doesn’t fit your body well!” Briar laughed wantonly.
Aurelia gritted her teeth, widened her eyes and raised her foot, ready to kick him. At the same time, a cold voice sounded, “Why does Spirit accept everyone now?”
The clerk who had come to greet him enthusiastically was stunned by Callum’s words. What did he mean? Who was he talking about?
Aurelia knew who it was without even looking at the man.
She took several deep breaths, trying to ignore Callum.
Hearing Callum’s voice made Briar shiver. “I don’t want this one. It is too revealing.” The sleeveless night gown was stunning though, she didn’t want to dress provocatively.
Before Briar could speak, the magnetic voice sounded again. “For real? This kind of dress is too revealing? Are you really that conservative or pretending to be innocent?”
Callum never imagined that in the future, his words would be a slap in the face to him.
After he said that, he let go of Aidan, motioned the clerk to take Aidan to pick up a dress, and sat down on the sofa.
Aidan cast a disdainful glance at Aurelia, who was glaring at Callum, before walking towards the VIP fitting room proudly.
Aurelia lifted the hem of her dress and walked in front of Callum, with anger in her eyes, saying, “Callum, what’s wrong with you? Did I provoke you again? I’m telling you that confession was fake. Do you really think I fell in love with you? Dream on!”
Aurelia could take this opportunity to explain everything to him. Otherwise, she wouldn’t be unable to explain herself when they get divorced later.
Callum’s face suddenly darkened. When the manager was wondering whether Callum wanted to drive Aurelia away, Briar pulled Aurelia to the cashier without saying anything.
Briar’s motto was that avoiding trouble rather than dealing with them.
“From now on, this woman is not allowed to enter this store!” Callum’s voice came from behind them.
Aurelia was so angry that she wanted to divorce this man now and here. She shook off Briar’s hand and strode towards Callum.
“Callum! I’m telling you… Ugh…” What she wanted to say was again covered up by Briar. This time, Briar directly dragged her away.
Briar pulled out a bank card and said, “Check out, please!”
“Ma’am, don’t you need any makeup?” As it happens, I know a well-known makeup brand and…
Briar grabbed Aurelia’s arm, who was trying to get out of his control, and shook his head, “No, just wrap this up. Quick!”
He had a feeling that if he didn’t take Aurelia away as fast as possible, she and Callum would definitely fight!
He couldn’t just watch her die!
Inside Briar’s Mercedes Benz.
Briar finally let go of Aurelia, locked the car door, and leaned on the steering wheel to breathe heavily. “I’m telling you, Briar. I’m going to divorce him today! I’m so unlucky that I married Callum!”
After Aurelia finished speaking, there was silence in the car. Briar looked at the angry Aurelia in surprise and was speechless for a long time.
Aurelia lost her head. Then it hit her that she couldn’t prove it to Briar with her marriage certificate. She leaned back in her chair and muttered, “I’m not lying to you. I’ve been married a long time ago to Callum, but our marriage is in name only… I’ve been wanting a divorce lately, but Callum…”
“Aurelia… Enough. I understand.” Briar looked at the woman in front of him with despair.
Aurelia thought Briar believed her, and she was so happy. “I didn’t mean to keep it from you. After all…”
“Don’t worry. I’ll take you to see the best doctor in Evercrest. It’s okay, Aurelia. You’ll be fine. Even if you’ve lost your mind, I’ll not give up on you!” Briar took out his mobile phone and started to find a hospital nearby.
Aurelia tightly grasped the phone that Briar was holding, lowered her head and held her forehead, unable to speak for a long time. She knew it! She knew that no one would believe her!
After a long while, she said calmly, “Forget it. Let’s go directly to the party!”
As he stopped at the red lights, Briar glanced at her suspiciously several times before saying, “You okay?” Was Aurelia’s mental illness intermittent?
“Yes, I’m fine.”
She answered helplessly.
The Richmond family party was held on the Ocean Cruise Ship. The huge cruise ship, which was able to carry thousands of people, was docked at the seaside of the easternmost sea of Evercrest.
This luxurious cruise ship, which cost tens of billions of dollars, was the optimal choice for many large companies to hold parties.
After getting out of the car, Aurelia looked at the brightly lit cruise ship and casually tied her messy long hair into a bun at the back of her head.
However, her hair was too smooth, and she tried to tie it up several times without success. She immediately became annoyed. “I wanted to have my hair cut last time, but Liana wouldn’t let me do it. I envy girls with short hair so much!”
Briar grinned, took out a dashing grey suit from the trunk and put it on, then took the rubber band away from Aurelia’s hand. Rubbing his chin, he looked at her carefully. “Don’t tie it up. It’s fine to let it hang down like this.”
Although Aurelia had been acting like a naughty boy, she was still a woman after all. And her beauty was captivating.
When it came to her hair, she has never used a hair conditioner since she was a child, but her hair was always soft.
As for her skin, though it was not that perfect, she practiced martial arts and was so into sports, which helped her skin be smooth and radiant.
Although the dress didn’t quite match her long flowing hair, she was still very appealing.
“Don’t you have a lot of lipsticks? Come on. Put on some lipstick.” Briar thought that Aurelia would look more breathtaking if she wore a little makeup, going perfectly with the red dress.
Aurelia took out a lipstick from her purse and started to wear it, the same color as her dress.
“Very good. Let’s go!” Briar threw her backpack into the car and took out a pair of high heels from the trunk of the car.
After she changed her shoes, he held out his arm to Aurelia.
Aurelia naturally smoothed out her hair and boarded the cruise ship wearing black high heels.
The deck and cabin lobby of the cruise were decorated very luxuriously. Quite a few people had already arrived. Aurelia rarely attended such a grand party, so she didn’t know anyone there.
As soon as Briar got on board, he took Aurelia to the cafeteria, and then went to pick up girls on his own.
