Chapter 70 The Marriage Was A Deal In His Eyes
The next day, Aurora Robertson had not left the company after work but sat in her seat, unmoved and
frustrated.
Yes, she regretted it.
Why did she agree for Nevaeh Burns to approach her as if she were possessed?
And what should she say?
Would she apologize to Nevaeh Burns and say that she shouldn't marry Sion Carroll? But she did not
feel guilty. It was Sion Carroll who insisted on marrying her.
Would she ask Nevaeh Burns to apologize and admit that Nevaeh was now the one who wormed her
way into their family? But Nevaeh Burns was Sion Carroll's first love.
Aurora sighed with resignation. She took her bag and left the company.
The restaurant they chose was not far from her company. When she arrived, Nevaeh and Sion were
already waiting for her.
They sat side by side, talking about something. Both handsome men and and pretty women were very
eye-catching.
Aurora sat down, and Nevaeh glanced at her. She couldn't tell the meaning revealed by her eyes. It
wasn't resentment. It looked aloof and mysterious.
Aurora forced a smile and said first, "... Have you been waiting for a long time?"
Her eyes quickly scanned the opposite Sion and then lowered his head to tidy up the cutlery in front of
her.
"Not for long."
Nevaeh laughed with ease, "Sion picked me up, and we took a detour because of a little traffic jam."
"Oh... alright."
He picked Nevaeh up deliberately.
Aurora recalled that Sion had never especially taken a long way to pick her up.
She once thought that he would care about the end of their marriage. However, compared to her
reaction, Sion's moves revealed his indifference. She overestimated herself.
"We ordered some. Do you have something you want to eat?"
Nevaeh said, ready to press the service bell. Aurora quickly shook her head and reached out to block
her, "No, I'm not picky about food. What you ordered is enough."
The last time Nevaeh suffered a relapse was due to eating the dishes she ordered. If there were such a
coincidence again today, it would be extremely hard for her to explain herself.
"That's all right." Nevaeh withdrew her hand. It's not the time to beat around the bush. She looked at
the man next to her affectionately, then turned to Aurora and said calmly, "I know all about your affair.
Sion has also explained it to me. Aurora, I don't blame you... You two don't love each other. In my
opinion, it's a sham marriage. over the past few years, Sion has been taking care of you, which is a
relief to the late professor Robertson."
Aurora was down in dumps. She glanced at Sion, whose thin lips were lightly pursed.
Aurora picked up the lemonade on the table and took a sip. She smiled and said, "Well, I'm very
grateful to Dr. Carroll for taking care of me. Now... It's almost over."
Sion Carroll gazed at the woman sitting quietly. Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.
Nevaeh noticed that Aurora had finished half the water in her glass. She took the initiative to fill it up for
her and said, "Please keep the secret when confronted with Uncle Bailey. Thanks for your hard work."
Aurora was startled for a moment. Sion must have told Nevaeh Bailey's situation.
"You and Sion did not complete the divorce procedures yesterday and are now living together
temporarily just to persuade Uncle Bailey to accept treatment... Don't worry, I won't overthink it."
Nevaeh looked as if she understood her very well, and her words carried an inexplicable sense of
gratitude. "I'm sorry to trouble you. It's been a long time since the past few years' troublesome story
has ended, and now you have to wait for a while longer."
Hearing this, Aurora licked the corner of her mouth and wanted to laugh.
She did not expect Nevaeh to say these words. Nevaeh not only taught a lesson as "Sion's wife," but
also completely put the marriage into a deal.
But if it were a deal, why didn't she get anything out of it?
Aurora never thought the words Nevaeh said after were really so shocking to her.
"Your boyfriend, your senior, probably doesn't know about this yet. Don't worry, we won't talk
nonsense... You two are so close. After you divorce Sion, you'll be able to be with him, right?"
Boyfriend? Senior? Together?
Aurora had never known of Nevaeh's speculation. She wanted to explain. But when she noticed Sion's
dark eyes, she didn't understand what was wrong with him. Was he unhappy?
Did Nevaeh's words make him unhappy? Or did the behavior that she wanted to explain annoy him?
Finally, the words stuck in her throat, and she held them back.
She smiled an infinitely faint smile. "Yes, that's right..."
As soon as she finished her sentence, the waiter served the food. Aurora did not look at them and
focused on eating. However, she did not notice that her perfunctory admission at the end had
successfully made Sion lose his appetite. He was in an extremely bad mood!
Nevaeh noticed his strange behavior. She clenched the hand that was hanging by her side. She didn't
want Sion to pay attention to Aurora all the time. She thought of something and pretended to shake her
head helplessly. She said, "Sion, actually I have something to tell you..."
"Huh?"
"I'm probably not going to work at the hospital tomorrow either."
Sion noticed that Nevaeh looked a little desolate. He slightly frowned and asked, "What's the matter?"
"There's something wrong with my stomach... And I think I'll have to have another checkup. It's been a
long time. I'm afraid it'll affect my work."
"Is it serious?" Sion was worried. Aurora, sitting opposite Sion, acted as if she had not heard their
conversation. However, her hand that held the cutlery constantly tightened.
Even without looking up, she could feel how warm the atmosphere was between them. Aurora
suddenly felt that the food on the plate was tasteless.
"I don't know what's going on yet. I'll wait for the results of the follow-up examination." Nevaeh gently
held Sion's arm and smiled. "It shouldn't be serious. Don't you think I'm fine now?"
Upon hearing this, Aurora took a deep breath and felt that the food seemed to be choking her heart. It
didn't go up or down. She was extremely uncomfortable.
Then her cell phone rang, and she was so relieved to see the caller that she answered it as if she had
seen her savior.
"Albie..."
Albie Doyle's deep and pleasant voice came over the phone.
"Aurora, where are you? I want to take you to a place."
The quiet environment made Sion hear his words clearly.
His thin lips pursed unconsciously as he stared at Aurora, who was sniggering. His gaze became
somewhat cold...
