Aurora let out a deep breath while trying to smile at Danny, even though her smile failed to reach her eyes.
"It's my fate meeting you, Danny..." Aurora calmly said. She felt terrible because she couldn't tell him the truth, even though she desperately wanted to.
Danny was taken aback, and a thin line appeared on his forehead as he asked, "Me? Why me?"
Aurora nodded thoughtfully, replying, "Yes, it's because of you, Danny. I'm still shocked to know you are Maxwell's brother. That's my fate meeting you..."
Renata couldn't hold back a chuckle upon hearing Aurora's answer.
At the same time, Josh shook his head but said nothing.
Danny tried to trust her, even though it didn't sound convincing.

Their conversation continued as they enjoyed the live music and food.
As the night progressed, the restaurant's guests began to leave one by one, signaling the restaurant's closing time.
When Aurora wanted to excuse herself to go home, Josh suddenly excused himself to take a call.
