After Divorce, I Became A Queen novel Chapter 126

Chapter 126 Their First Encounter Brightened up His Life

Aurora retrieved all the checklists herself while he's gone. She heaved a sigh of relief after she left the brain tests and others behind and had the test sheet to confirm her pregnancy tucked away. Then she went to check on Bailey. Fortunately, it was a mild concussion, and no other discomfort than dizziness.

Seeing Aurora's here, Ariana pushed her gently outside. "Look at yourself, just go back to your room and rest! He doesn't need much care. I can do it alone."

Aurora gave in. "All right, I'll go."

She was back in her room, feeling a little idle, when her cell phone rang. She thought it was Sion, but it turned out to be... Nevaeh! Why would she call at this time? Is this about Sion again?

Aurora hesitated a little. The instant she picked it up, she was called her full name at the other end of the line. "Aurora Robertson."

The cold and haughty tone of Nevaeh came on the line bring a nasty feeling to Aurora who thus frowned more deeply.

"What?"

"Nothing important." Nevaeh snorted with laughter. "Here's this good news I think you should know."

Aurora held her phone and did not say a thing.

"Don't you wanna know what it is?" Nevaeh said with interested face, "Sion just left. He was overjoyed to hear that."

Aurora kept in silence. What's it got to do with her if he's happy? Even though there was no good news, he would be glad just to see Nevaeh.

She took a deep breath. "Why don't you cut to the chaste?"

"Fine, I'll listened to you." Nevaeh paused deliberately. "I'm pregnant," she said word by word.

Aurora's heart jumped when the words thudded into her ears. She didn't even notice the phone slipped out of her hand.

Nevaeh's pregnant? When? She was breathing faster and kept repeating in her head what Nevaeh had just said. A choking pain in her heart kept her in a complete daze. And Sion… he's overjoyed? Yeah, of course he was. He had a baby with the woman he loved. He loved her so much, certainly he would love their baby as well. But… She touched her belly with a trembling hand, but there was a little life here too...

At some point Nevaeh hung up.

Coming back to her senses, Aurora rubbed her red eyes, and said to herself comforting the baby, "It's okay... Mama will give you all my love, including Daddy's."

Sion gave him a surprised look and said, "I'm sorry, Sir… I…"

"No, no, no, it's okay. It's been years." Toby interrupted him, "It's just that my daughter's kind of foxy. I hope you don't mind her being tiresome."

They drove unimpeded to a small building where, from the door, Sion could see a well-kept garden full of girly flowers. Sion followed Toby into the door with an imperceptible curiosity grown in his heart.

"Make yourself at home. Have a seat and I'll get you the paper."

Toby then went to the study. Sion looked around while he's away. The living room was not very large but warm. On the walls were varied paintings-childish, fanciful, exquisite and professional-documenting a person's progress in drawing from the beginning to the high level.

Did his daughter draw these? While he was thinking, a rippling voice of a young girl, lively and full of vigor, rang out from upstairs. "Daddy, daddy, daddy! Is it my handsome daddy back!"

Before he said anything, the figure on the stairs came into his sight. The girl wore a high ponytail that was swinging as she ran downstairs. On her little white face hang a lovely smile that curved her big eyes into a crescent moon shining straight into his heart.

She saw him, too, and suddenly came to a standstill and smiling. A hint of doubt arose in her bright eyes. "Who are you?"
