Chapter 1090: Chapter 1090: He’d Rather Be Hurt Himself Than Let Her Lose a Single Hair
Rocco Cooper didn’t doubt Aurelia Shaw’s words were a lie at all. He had already witnessed Aurelia’s abilities earlier in Q City. During that time, Mason let him protect Aurelia closely, and he also saw Aurelia’s decisive and straightforward style. Once she decides on something, there’s no one who can change her mind.
Rocco Cooper gritted his teeth, "Keep moving forward!"
Aurelia Shaw lifted the corner of her lips and looked outside.
Mason Nightshade, wait for me.
Rocco Cooper passed over a compressed biscuit from the back, "Sis, it’s still a long way to go. You surely haven’t had breakfast to sneak in, right? Eat something to pad your stomach. We don’t have anything delicious, this is what we usually eat."
Aurelia Shaw took it and started eating without disdain.
Rocco Cooper was a bit surprised.
He originally thought Aurelia Shaw was a woman raised in luxury.
With her family and Mason spoiling her like that, how could she be willing to endure hardship? She surely hadn’t eaten this kind of thing, would definitely not get used to it.
But unexpectedly, Aurelia Shaw ate without the slightest disdain. In her mouth, it seemed as though it tasted exceptionally good.
Rocco Cooper’s admiration for Aurelia Shaw deepened a layer, he handed her some water: "Sis, have some water."
Aurelia Shaw gulped a few times and asked, "Where’s Grayson Quinn? Isn’t he with you on this mission?"
Given Grayson Quinn’s close relationship with Mason Nightshade, it’s quite odd that Grayson isn’t here when Mason is in trouble.
Rocco Cooper’s facial expression became awkward.
Aurelia Shaw sensed something had occurred.
Rocco Cooper hesitated and then said, "Grayson was ambushed in the last mission and got injured. He’s still lying in the hospital without regaining consciousness. Mason was captured trying to rescue him, and Junia Simpson is taking care of him now."
No wonder, with Mason Nightshade’s skills, someone managed to trap him.
Aurelia Shaw was neither surprised, nor did she blame Grayson Quinn. She’s a very rational person; she understands Mason Nightshade and knows that at that moment, he would definitely step in to save his brother—it’s his principle.
She wouldn’t be the one to make him break his own bottom line and principle.
Aurelia Shaw finished eating and squinted for a nap.
The window was open, and the soldiers in the other cars stared wide-eyed at her. They hadn’t seen anyone this beautiful before, much better-looking than anyone on TV!
No wonder she’s their sister-in-law, able to capture Mason Nightshade, who is known to eschew ironclad bachelorhood.
Faced with such a beauty, they’re willing to give anything to stay by her side.
Rocco Cooper’s face turned dark, and he thought inwardly: Aren’t you afraid to die? If Mason finds out you dare to ogle his woman like this, he’ll make you run with weights until your legs break, and you won’t get up from bed for a month.
No way, if this continues, he might get implicated too.
Rocco Cooper raised the headrest of the back seat.
Aurelia Shaw shifted a bit.
Rocco Cooper was so frightened he tightened his back, and his hands on the steering wheel involuntarily gripped tighter, stealthily watching Aurelia’s face in the rear-view mirror.
Aurelia Shaw’s brow furrowed slightly, but soon she sank into deep sleep again.
Rocco Cooper breathed a sigh of relief and gazed at Aurelia Shaw’s sleeping face, thinking: Sis must not have slept last night, worrying about Mason Nightshade?
He used to think Sis was indifferent towards Mason, but now he realizes Sis truly loves Mason.
The two of them are quite good together.
Hope Mason is alright this time, and hope Sis doesn’t run into any danger on this trip.
Mason would rather get hurt himself than let Sis lose a single hair.
