Theodore drove Aurora back to her place.

Once they arrived downstairs, Theodore stopped the car. "Aurora, go home and get some rest."

It was already midnight.

Aurora nodded. "Alright, Theo. But you should also rest as soon as you get back. If you're feeling distressed, you can call me and talk about it. I might not be able to help you solve anything, but sharing your feelings might make you feel better."

"Okay. Go on inside," Theodore responded softly.

Aurora opened the car door and got out. After watching Theodore drive away, she turned around and headed upstairs.

When Aurora got home, she found that Angie wasn't there. It struck her as odd. The lights were on, but there was no sign of Angie anywhere.

Where could she have gone at this hour?

Aurora took out her phone and called Angie, but there was no answer.

Frowning, Aurora sent her a message. [Angie, where have you gone?]

Despite her dislike for Angie, Angie was still her cousin. Moreover, since Angie was staying at her place, Aurora would be responsible if something happened to her.

Several minutes later, Aurora received a text from Angie. [Aurora, I went to see a friend. I won't be back tonight. Anyway, you're not home tonight, so it doesn't matter if I am or not. You must be with Theodore.]

Aurora was about to reply that she was back home and not with Theodore, but she decided there was no point in explaining. Instead, she replied, [Alright, take care and stay safe.]
