Aurora's hand was already on the car door handle when a familiar voice stopped her.
"Did Adrian stop by to talk about the shop?" Liam asked. He didn't quite believe what Theo had said earlier, and it showed in his tone.
Aurora blinked, then nodded. "Hmm… he said his family is planning to open a coffee shop and asked us to leave as soon as possible."
"I'll try to talk to—"
"No, it's okay," she interrupted gently. "I think I'll just close the shop."
After talking with Theo earlier, she realized he was right. The whole decision to open the shop had been too impulsive, something she did out of frustration with Liam. Looking back now, she regretted resigning from her job.
Silence lingered between them until Aurora pressed her lips together and gave a small nod. "Hmm… so, I'll excuse myself, Mr. Kingsley."
She reached for the door handle again, but Liam's voice stopped her once more.
"If you plan to work again, I'll talk to HR—"
