The Billionaire’s Treasure Wife

The few interactions Lindsey has had with Aurora have hardly ever been pleasant, so I can’t say whether I have a bad or good impression of her.

The entire red carpet was filled with press, and at a time like this, even if she didn’t want to continue her career in film and television, she still had to be concerned about the public image of The Grant family.

The organisers had only one goal in mind: to extend the reach of the event.

A month or so ago, Bruce said in front of the press that he had never dated Aurora. Although the news was later suppressed, the curiosity of gossipy journalists could not be squashed.

Lindsey doesn’t know what motivated the proud Aurora to accept this unthinkable arrangement from the organisers. For her own part, she was very resistant.

“Come on, if you don’t go, tomorrow’s headlines might be even more frightening.” Bruce held her hand tightly in time, a gentle smile on his face. “We’ll go home after the walk.”

Lindsey fell silent, the rest of her eyes sweeping to Aurora, a strong wave of discomfort welling up in her.

Uncomfortable as she was, she still maintained her proper manners.

Aurora’s innate elegance made her an instant hit on the red carpet. Now the three of them are together and the journalists at the bottom are fainting with excitement.

Bruce’s face was in the face, and now they were together at the event. There was enough gossip behind the scenes to make a feature, perhaps even a long one.

Aurora’s face was beautifully made up, smiling confidently as the flashes of light came and went.

After all, it’s not good for anyone to be torn apart in the same circle.

It’s just that the heart is still bubbling with sourness. That simpleton from the ravine was now like a princess, making a big splash. She, the real princess, had almost become a supporting actress, which was hard to swallow.

As she walked down the aisle, Lindsey’s face was a grin on her face. The organisers had prepared a press interview, which was fortunately blocked by Bruce.

Even so, questions from the press did reach her ears.

Some asked when she would marry Bruce, others asked if Bruce would be able to stand up, and others asked her about her relationship with Aurora.

Although she didn’t have to answer, she felt more than a little uncomfortable. If she had known she wouldn’t have attended, she would have been better off if Edward had been in charge of the film’s promotion and she, the lead actress, hadn’t shown up.

Entering the infield, Lindsey immediately turned around and dragged Bruce towards the emergency exit.

“Really going to see the moon.” Bruce laughs away. “Why don’t we get something to eat before we go.”

Lindsey paused and leaned down slightly to ask against his ear, “Do you enjoy the occasion?”

Bruce shook his head firmly and looked at her with a gentleness he had never seen before. “Because you’re coming, that’s why I’m coming.”

Lindsey’s heart warmed and the thought of leaving was instantly dispelled.

Shortly after taking her seat, Lindsey noticed that Burton was also attending the event and wondered for a moment.

Bruce saw Burton too, and seeing a puzzled look on Lindsey’s face, he kindly explained, “There’s a use for these events, if you want to know.”

“What.” Lindsey padded over curiously and opened with a small laugh. “It’s not a hunt, is it.”

Bruce threw her a: you’re smart look and his sword brows furrowed slightly. “Let’s go.”

“Okay.” Lindsey hadn’t wanted to stay long and couldn’t wait to get out.

Getting up and quietly retreating to the emergency exit, Lindsey suddenly had an internal emergency and asked Bruce to wait while she went to the bathroom.

Once she was gone, Bruce was bored and grabbed his phone to take pictures. After about four or five shots, a breeze of fragrant air suddenly slipped behind his head, followed by a figure plunging down beside him with great speed.

“After a muffled thud, there was a man on the side of the wheelchair.

Bruce thought his wheelchair had snagged someone, so he put his phone away and leaned down to help him up: “Are you all right, where are you hurt?”

“It’s okay.” Aurora grunted and looked up to see that it was Bruce, forgetting the pain and staring at the spot.

His voice was not as cold as it had been before, a gentle, low voice that was so nice it made your ears want to get pregnant. He wore a white handmade suit tonight, and his already handsome appearance was even more attractive.

It was a look she hadn’t seen before, understated and modest, gentle and polite. When he had seen her before, there had never been any other expression on his face, and his whole being had an air of coldness about it. It was as if nothing from the outside world could affect him, until that day at the Royal Food Place.

She saw his stagnant eyes change, and it was all because of Lindsey, heh!

“Thanks.” Aurora took a step back and heard her own chaotic, unruly heartbeat. “Plop,” “plop,” a sound like a magic spell.

She had tripped over her own skirt and had only vaguely seen a wheelchair and guessed it was Bruce, but she hadn’t expected it to be him.

What she didn’t expect was that Bruce would reach out to help her and care if she was hurt!

“You’re welcome.” Bruce realised it was Aurora and, looking pale, controlled the wheelchair backwards, avoiding her and continuing out the door.

In the dim light, Bruce’s handsome appearance with his high nose and deep eyes was etched into Aurora’s mind. What had once been contempt and disdain had, in this moment, taken a bizarre turn.

The man she thought she would never be able to stand up for, the man with the good-looking eyebrows and gentlemanly demeanour, had just entered her heart without warning.

Just as she was lost in thought, Lindsey came out of the bathroom and walked cheerfully towards Bruce. “Bruce, we can go now.”

“Mmm.” Bruce responded with a melting smile, controlling the wheelchair and sliding over with a sweet face.

Lindsey didn’t notice that Aurora was there, she came to Bruce’s side and naturally took his hand, sitting on his lap and sliding in the direction of the exit.

The sounds of the two men laughing and joking faded away until they were out of earshot and Aurora looked back. Turning her head in confusion, she looked at the empty emergency exit, her eyes twinkling and her eyebrows raised slightly.

Bruce, the man, was hers for the taking!

It was barely eight o’clock in the evening, and the full moon hung half-slanted in the neon-coloured orange sky.

Lindsey let out a breath and smiled down at Bruce. “You can see the moon from anywhere, why don’t we go back and have a barbecue?”

“You’ve had a bad stomach lately, cut down on the barbecue.” Bruce tightened the force in his hand and said mysteriously. “I’ll take you on an exciting ride, want to go or not.”

Lindsey thought about it for a moment as if there was nothing important to do tomorrow and nodded with bright eyes. “Okay.”

Bruce smiled back and led her to the car and immediately instructed Cary. “Go to Terence’s training base.”Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

Cary didn’t say anything, and the next instant he started the car and drove off from the car park.

The car drove through the city centre, heading for the outskirts of the city, Lindsey felt a little drained and fell asleep in Bruce’s arms, and when she woke up, the car had stopped in the middle of a valley.

“Where is this.” She looked blankly out the window at the hazy night, her head still a bit spinning, “Out of town?”

“Well, get out of the car.” Bruce leaned over and placed a soft kiss on her lips. “Do you want me to carry you down.”

“No way.” Lindsey pushed him away, blushing as she sat up straight and opened the door to get out of the car.

Looking at the terrain, it looked like an abandoned military airfield, but it didn’t look like one. Because of the low light, Lindsey could only make out a vague outline and had to enquire with Bruce beside her. “Where is this.”

“Helicopter repair shop.” Bruce replied dryly, wrapping his arm around her shoulders and taking her into his arms as he headed for the bungalow a short distance away.

When he reached the door of the bungalow, Terence appeared out of nowhere and gave Bruce a warm hug. “What brings you here all of a sudden.”

“I heard you boys got brushed off the Special Forces brigade test, so I came over to comfort and console you.” Bruce smiled and patted him on the shoulder. “How’s it going, the new assignment schedule is okay.”

“It was okay, you didn’t just come to see me that way.” Terence’s eyes fell on Lindsey and smiled faintly. “There’s a real test drive tonight, and it takes place in half an hour.”

Bruce laughed again and gave him a hard punch. “Good, but we’re not disciplined about coming, you boys aren’t afraid …”

“It’s fine, but you can’t fly too long, and you’ll have to change.” Terence said, turning his head and going back inside to fetch two flight suits and handing them to Bruce.

Bruce took the flight suits and dragged Lindsey inside to change.

Lindsey was confused by him and couldn’t help but be curious as she looked left and right with the flight suits. “Terence gave up?”

Bruce nodded, not explaining too much. The military was different from other places, inability was inability, and even if a grandfather asked, there was no net underneath. After all, guarding the security of the homeland was a heavy responsibility, and the lightest of injuries could cost lives.

Lindsey saw that he wouldn’t talk, so he didn’t ask. She was still wearing her gown and couldn’t take it off after a while, so she turned to him for help.

Bruce’s eyes glowed and he came around behind her and locked her to his chest, lowering his head and kissing her neck delicately. “Do you want to try it out in the wild?”

The raspy, low voice was full of compulsion.

Lindsey frowned, her cheeks burning red. “Don’t make a scene.”

“No …,” Bruce laughed, pulling her body over and kissing the corner of her lips. Taking off the gown she was wearing.

The light was dim and the pale, lustrous skin seemed to be covered in a layer of oil. His hand slid down her back and resumed its wanderings back, stopping at her breast, a muffled, mute laugh escaping his lips. “Let’s let you go first.”

Lindsey pushed him away breathlessly and grabbed her flight suit to change into, fixing her hair in the process and narrowing her eyes as she watched him change.

His recent training had been very effective, the muscle tone in his abdomen becoming more and more pronounced.

“You really don’t need to go out there if you keep looking.” Bruce laughed again, getting dressed and embracing her as they headed out, following Terence to the tarmac.

“This is an old machine, recently replaced with a new engine for performance testing.” Terence pointed to a military machine in the night and turned back to Bruce with a grin and a jibe. “Don’t dare try it out.”

Lindsey was stunned, her whole heart jumping to the back of her throat at once.
