After Divorce, I Became A Queen novel Chapter 85

Chapter 85 Ariana’s Plan

Albie drove Aurora back to the Carroll Manor. He turned to look at her pale face and asked worriedly, "Aurora, are you sure you are not gonna live with me?"

"Albie, I am fine. I will consider that after Mr. Carroll gets a bit better and the divorce with Sion is settled." She shook her head to reply.

Seeing that she insisted, Albie didn't intend to continue. He got off the car to open the door for her, "Okay, just take care. Call me if needed."

"Okay. Thanks you, Albie." Aurora was really grateful to him. If it weren't for him today, she would have ended up in a terrible consequence.

"Don't mention it. I am your brother. Just take a rest, get relaxed and take care of yourself." Albie gently scratched her nose to respond.

"Okay. Bye, Albie. Just take care." After that, Aurora walked into the manor. Then she turned around to wave at him.

Smiling, he opened the door to get in the car.

As the car faded away from her sight, she stood in the middle of the garden, in front of whom there was a piece of open land. Located behind her, the majestic house of the Carroll stood. She felt like being overwhelmed with despondence.

She laid her hands on her belly, where a little baby was kept.

…

When Sion returned at night, Aurora was helping Ariana to prepare the dinner.

She cast a simple glance at him. Then she bypassed him in silence.

"Oh, Sion, welcome home! Time for dinner!" said Ariana to him. Then she saw him nod and go upstairs to get himself changed.

Her sight lurched from Sion and Aurora, which roused her concern.

She felt like their relationship seemed to be even worse.

Actually, she was right about her presumption.

During dinner, both of them maintained a straight face in silence.

Ariana was rendered rather uneasy under the embarrassing atmosphere.

"Hey, do you think there is gonna be a quarrel between them?" asked Ariana while serving Baily a cup of tea.

"I don't think so."

Bailey sighed while speaking of them, "Sion is good at nothing but emotional abuse."

"But I just feel like…Aurora has lost her patience. She used to be so infatuated with him. But now everything's changed." While Ariana was applying skin-care cream on her face, she continued after contemplation, "Whatever. It just doesn't feel good between them. What is gonna happen between them really concerns me."

A fierce quarrel between Sion and Aurora wasn't what kept her worried. Instead, the deadly silence between them was her greatest concern.

"What about the soup last time you made for them? Did it work?" Bailey felt like they had to do something.

"Well…it didn't seem to work really well. Sion is a doctor. He could tell what it was as soon as he smelt it. I bet he hadn't even taken a sip of it."

Baily looked at her and then decided, "Perhaps a stronger one will work this time."

…

After Ariana went upstairs a few minutes ago, there were only Sion and Aurora sitting at the dining table.

"Are you sure you are fine after the check in the hospital today?"

Surprised by his sudden question, Aurora suddenly stopped eating.

Was he showing care for her?

However, his voice still sounded cold as usual. Besides, he didn't even pay her a glance.

"I am fine." After the short answer, she continued with the food.
