Chapter 230 Misunderstanding
Aurora would have already left but for the press.
She now even suspected that Sion sponsored the Time Gold Medal and invited her to screw her.
But to the point, she could not refuse. Anyway, it wouldn’t hurt her by being photographed with Sion.
With the help of the host, the trophy was held in Aurora and Sion’s hands, one on the left and one on the right, with their shoulders pressed against each other, harmoniously facing the camera.
Aurora was smiling, but she was full of loathing for the man next to her inside. She thought he was so good at disguising himself.
Under the trophy, the two hands inevitably touched each other, and the warm touch came clearly from the fingertips.
Aurora pinched Sion’s wrist secretly because that was her revenge for the embarrassment brought by him.
Sion looked at her. He saw the smile on her face and her jawbone which had been bitten tight. If he was not standing next to her, he would not have noticed that. Sion’s wrist turned red in an invisible place, but he got a bigger smile on his face, for it was the first time Aurora had paid attention to him since her return. He didn’t expect that it was on the stage.
Sion stared at Aurora with a more complex look. Aurora ignored his burning gaze and left without looking at him again after going through the whole process.
When Sion finished with interviews at the end of the ceremony, he found Aurora was gone. At the thought of the text message he had just received, he turned sullen again.
He zoomed in the picture on every detail of the person. And he was sure that she was Aurora. Lowering his eyes, he decided to ask her in person.
Sion looked around and walked in the direction of backstage.
In the lounge, Aurora’s light-hearted voice came out.
“I came to Fuglon on an impromptu trip, so I didn’t tell you in advance. And I didn’t know you had just returned from here.”
She talked to the phone in a rare relaxed tone, with her hand twirling a strand of hair around her ear in a circle, “I apologized to you so sincerely, and you, the president of Crescent Group, are still angry?”
Cameron had learned about her silver tongue before, “I dare not be angry with Queen.”
Aurora smiled, from the bottom of her heart. Cameron did help her a lot. Since he saved her life, he had taken care of her and her two children all the time. Although later she had become a well-known fashion designer on her own, Cameron lent her a helping hand several times. Thus, she was grateful to this brother-like person.
She laughed heartily, “Alright, my apologies. When you go back to Lower Hopton, I would like to personally apologize to you.”
Suddenly she thought of something and her smiling face disappeared, “Guess, who sponsored the award I received this time?”
Cameron was puzzled for a moment, “Who?”
“Sion Carroll.” Aurora gritted her teeth.
There was silence on the phone for a few seconds before a warm male voice came through again, “Are you okay, Aurora?”
Aurora grunted coldly, then said, “I’m good. But he might not feel well.”
Cameron laughed lightly, “Yeah, how could Queen let herself feel bad?”
“Take care of yourself and the children, and soon, I’ll come to you.”
Speaking of the children, Aurora smiled again, “Sure. Don’t worry, everything is fine with us here.”
Everything was fine, except that. Morgan was still at Sion’s. Thinking of her daughter, she was worried about how to bring Morgan back since that little girl would like to stay with Sion.
Behind the door, Sion happened to hear everything. It was a bolt from the blue to him that Aurora was in a relationship with another guy. He leaned against the wall, with a hand covering his chest, his heart hurting a lot. The soft tone of her voice on the phone had never been heard when she talked to him.
Sion had a sense of foreboding that the guy on the phone was the father of her child. Now he felt like a great weight was pressing his heart, which made it hard for him to breathe. He could not stand it any longer and pushed open the door of the lounge and barged in.Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.
Aurora was still talking to Cameron, and the tenderness on her face made her more attractive.
She looked at the man standing in front of her and was stunned for a moment, “Sion?”
Sion saw the smile on her face disappear and her gaze fall on him, in which there was dismay turning into impatience.
The stark contrast with earlier made him heartbroken.
She didn’t want to see him.
Sion stepped forward, holding back the anger and fear inside, and blurted out, “Do you have a son?”
Aurora froze.
How did he know that?
He couldn’t find out about the relationship between Theodore and her in such a short time even if Theodore had alerted him.
Aurora was so shocked that she forgot to retort while pondering the reason why he asked that question. She was silent, and Sion thought she was acquiescing to what he asked.
Since he got the “answer”, the pain in his heart was so dense, as if his whole heart had been rolling in a thorn bush.
“That child…” Sion spoke with difficulty. And the weight of distress in his voice seemed to crush him. He didn’t finish his words and was silent for quite a long while.
Aurora was tense, thinking that Sion had found out about Theodore.
But she was not clear about his attitude, whether he would fight with her for the child or would blame her for hiding it.
Aurora frowned, with all those bad feelings swirling inside.
“Is he the child of you and the man on the phone?”
Aurora was speechless. It turned out that Sion misunderstood that Theodore was her son with Cameron.
She couldn’t tell if she was relieved or something else, but her face didn’t look too good.
Sion noticed the look on her face and said in a deep voice, “You don’t have to think about how to tell me the answer. I’ve seen it all.”
“What did you see?” Aurora thought.
She and Theodore had not met Cameron for a long time. What exactly did he mean by that?
Sion stared at her for a moment and showed her the picture directly, “Is he your son?”
Aurora glanced at him and took over the phone.
The picture was of her holding Theodore and kissing him at the airport when they arrived.
Who took this picture?
She zoomed in on the picture, making sure that he couldn’t see Theodore’s face, and felt somewhat a sense of relief. And she inadvertently see the text message that followed.
Now she knew why Sion would have said so. It turned out that someone was showing him the way.
Aurora laughed and handed over his phone, “You assume too much. If I remember right, we don’t have any relationship now, so why should I tell you?”
“You admit it?”
