After Divorce, I Became A Queen novel Chapter 97

Chapter 97 No Way to Go with Sion to Hospital!

His significant probing fueled her heart beating.

Did he sense anything? Apart from mistrusting, why did he keep forcing her?

With a glimpse of the door behind the man, Aurora found helpless in fighting.

The more she said, the more possible he would find the secret…

"I'm fine and this is none of your business! You should go back to comfort your dear Nevaeh, shouldn't you? Remember we are divorcing."

Aurora said, passing him by and heading back to her room.

But her hand was gripped from behind.

"Sion, leave me alone!"

Sion did not loosen his grip, gazing at her firmly, and said, "Stop challenging me this moment and come with me to the hospital."

If his guess was right…He dared not to think more about that possibility, but he had to face just in case.

Aurora was freaking out till she heard the voice of Ariana Knowles.

"What…are you doing?"

Ariana Knowles had heard their quarrel from downstairs. She never found before they could quarrel so blatantly. And what were they fighting for today?

"Aunt Ariana…"

Aurora seized the chance, got rid of Sion's grip and ran behind Ariana Knowles, and started to cry for the uncontrollable melancholy in her heart.

Bailey Carroll followed and found Aurora sobbing behind Ariana Knowles at once.

"Aurora, what's wrong?"

Sion stood still in silence, with a frosty face.

"You…You…"

Bailey Carroll was pissed off, pointing at Sion with a flush, and questioned, "What on earth do you want here?"

Bailey Carroll continued, "You dared to treat her this way before us, and how bad you could be behind us? Do you have any sense that you are her husband?"

He was getting so emotional that he nearly got physical.

Aurora began to worry. For one thing, she concerned about Bailey Carroll for his over-reaction might harm his health; for the other, she feared Sion who might stick to the subject. And if Bailey and Ariana was aware of their fight about her health problem, they were likely to support Sion.

Then her secret might be broken…

After calming down, she came to stop Bailey, and said, "Dad…"

"We're not fighting…I just got a slight digestion problem due to the ice cream I had this noon. And I'm fine now. Sion was concerning me actually…"

She had to say so though she did reluctant to.

The key was to get the thing over as soon as possible.

To mediate the dispute, Ariana Knowles said hurriedly, "Well…Aurora, are you fine really?" then, she turned to Sion and added, "Sion, that's enough! No matter what, you should talk it nicely."

The unbeatable triple team left Sion speechless.

He was amused though he was still really angry; and he was sure that Aurora was unwilling to go hospital.

Aurora looked better, not as pale as before. Maybe with the support from her allies, her voice grew louder.

"Aunt, I'm fine really."

She said with glimpse at the man at the opposite side, as if she was telling him.

"I'm totally clear about my own condition. If there is anything wrong, I must come to hospital at once."

Watching her saying so seriously, Sion was more annoyed for now he turned to be a bad guy.

At the opposite side, Ariana Knowles was comforting Aurora in low voice with her arms surrounding Aurora; Bailey Carroll echoed, with occasional threatening glimpses at Sion.

"I have to go."

Swallowing down his vexation, he passed them by and left.

Again, he was the loser when facing Aurora.

"Forget him! His temper is bad since from boyhood."

Bailey Carroll said loudly, "Turn to me next time he treats you ill!" It sounded that Bailey's health condition was not worrisome.

"Thank you, dad."

Nevaeh grew a bit pale but soon recomposed herself.

"I have no idea what are you talking about. As regards your question about the drug, I'm afraid it can only be answered after autopsy. But to my pity, the dog is already cremated."

Then it was impossible to find the proof.

Aurora could not neglect the triumph in Nevaeh Burn's eyes.

Aurora frowned and watched Nevaeh, confusing. Was the woman before really Nevaeh, a nice and gentle lady she used to know?

"No idea? Why don't you know? Avada died after it was sent to you. I think you are the only one who knows the truth."

Clenching her bag, Aurora felt her chest full of anger. This was the first time she felt her emotion barely under control.

"Whatever."

Nevaeh did not want to dispute with her and rejected directly, "But I won't give you its bone ash. You can leave now."

Sion had agreed to join her in burying the dog. If she gave its bone ash to Aurora, what did she bring to the funeral?

Nevaeh was surprisingly cold, which looked completely different from her usual behavior, kind and polite. The subject she was talking about sounded like a piece of rubbish other than her pet.

With her eyes uncontrollably turning red, she buried her head, recomposing herself; and after a long while she raised her head again, stared at Nevaeh, and said surely, "You killed Avada"

This was not a question but conclusion.

Nevaeh gazed at her emotionlessly for long while, pondering.

Except the skill in being pitiful, what was the charm of Aurora, a childish little girl? Why was Sion so obsessed with her?"

"You're right. And so what?"

Nevaeh was fed up with pretentions suddenly. With a slight curve of smile, she added, "And I'm sorry to have you take the blame for me."

Nevaeh disliked Aurora at the very first sight from the bottom of her heart.

Why could Aurora win attentions wherever she went? Why could Aurora claim the priority from all others who would devote the best of the world for her if they could? Just because her father was a doctor, then she deserved all of these?

And why she, Nevaeh, couldn't?

Aurora watched Nevaeh incredibly as if this was a stranger with the eyes full of contempt, chilling her like a vicious snake.
