Chapter 218 Morgan’s “Secret”

Chapter 218 Morgan's "Secret"

Morgan was left no time to pause but followed Sion into the bedroom. She was walking while checking carefully if Theodore had hidden.

Sion pushed open the door and walked into the room, his eyes roaming around, not replaceing the changed clothes. Then he turned around and walked across the room to the closet. Morgan's eyes widened nervously, her brother could be in the closet she had just hidden in.

Feeling tense, Morgan suddenly had an idea. She kicked the chair next to her, squatting down and covered one of her feet as she cried with tears. She did bang her toes. Therefore, her pained expression was real.

Sion saw her squat down, sobbing.

"What's wrong?" he asked in a worried and nervous tone, which could not even be noticed by himself. And the next second he crouched down quickly to check her foot. Morgan was wearing slippers at home, thus her tender little foot immediately turned red and almost swollen without protection. The little girl was pathetically dropping tears. It seemed that she hurt a lot.

"Donna, bring the medicine box over here."

Sion shouted out to Donna. No sooner had he said it than Donna brought the medicine box in without taking off her apron.

"What's wrong?"

Donna was a little worried, and she let out an ouch while seeing Morgan, "How could we have let this happen? Poor girl." Sion picked Morgan up and gently placed her on the sofa in the lounge.

"How did you bang your toes? Just be careful next time, okay?" Sion reminded her in a soft voice.

Morgan's eyes got redder whit her tears shedding down upon hearing Sion's words.

"It's okay, it won't hurt so much later."

Sion looked at her worriedly while wiping her tears with tissues, and his comforting words didn't stop.

"How did you bang your toes onto the chair, little miss? The chair was always there, nobody touched it before."

Donna's words seemed to remind Sion of something. His hands suddenly paused while he was rummaging around in the medicine chest. He took out the ointment and said to Donna without changing his face, "The chair is not used a lot. Move it from her room later."

It was a guest room. After Morgan lived in there, there was some new furniture added to the room. And the chair, since it didn't need much space, was left where it was without being removed. "Okay, sir." Donna got the same idea as Sion, "I'll take it out later, and those useless things in her room to the utility room."

After Donna left, Sion took a cotton swab and continued to apply the medicine to Morgan's foot. The cold touch made the little one subconsciously shrink her foot.

"Does it hurt?" Sion raised an eyebrow and eased up on the pressure.

Morgan glanced up at him and sniffled. Her toe was red.

Sion gave her a probing look and said, "Since it hurts, don't bump it next time." He thought the girl was hiding something from him, so she diverted his attention by doing so.

What couldn't be seen in the closet?

Does a little girl at her age have secrets she was shy about?

Morgan met Sion's inquisitive gaze, and she instantly lowered her head. She quietly glanced at the closet not far away now and then. Her secret was her brother in the closet, and she must not reveal it. And at this time, Theodore opened a gap in the closet, taking great breaths. He heard what they said from inside, knowing that his sister was injured.

Distressful and worried, Theodore blamed himself for letting her get hurt and letting her hide in the closet for long before that.

"It was all Sion's fault! Why did he come back at this hour instead of working in the company?" Theodore thought and he wanted to see how Morgan hurt right now.

Sion finished applying the medicine for Morgan, and while packing the medicine box, he said, "Be careful in these two days, don't let it touch water, understand?"

The pain finally dissipated because of the cool and relaxing feeling. She looked curiously at the place where the medicine had been rubbed on her foot and nodded. Sion smiled at her, but he still felt the thing was pretty strange.

While the other side, Aurora had not yet found Theodore missing, and she had just finished dinner with Albie. They walked out of the restaurant.

"I'll drop you off." Albie was unwilling to miss any opportunity to spend time with Aurora, so he spoke up.

Aurora laughed, "Albie, did you forget that I drove here?"

"When I come out to dine with you next time, I won't drive myself, so you can see me home."

"It's not far from the company, your car can stay here, and I will ask someone to drive it back in the afternoon."

"It's the first meal after five years, you should stop arguing with me."

Albie was not clear enough about what such a move was for. Perhaps he wanted to make up for the regret from five years ago. If it wasn't for Aurora driving her car, if it wasn't for him not insisting on going back to pick her up, she wouldn't have been in trouble.

Aurora saw his firm attitude and felt it hard to resist him, so she smiled and agreed, "Well then, since it is your request, I won't refuse."

Albie drove carefully following Google Maps, and he barely talked to her in case he would be distracted. He only spoke when the car was pulled over in front of the villa, "You live here now?"

He thought Aurora would live over at the Robertson Brick, the old house of her family. He had asked for someone to clean the house so many times for the past few years, and everything there was left intact. It was now turnkey.

"Yeah." Aurora nodded, "It is closer to the office, more convenient."

It was because she needed someone to take care of Morgan and Theodore. And she trusted Cameron, and his people were well-trained and reliable.

Albie was a little confused, not knowing how Aurora got involved with Crescent Group. She seemed to be able to represent Crescent Group completely by the way she looked now.

"If you need anything, just contact me, okay?"

Albie finally skipped his question, since Aurora did not mention it to him and she most likely had her considerations. Therefore, he would not force her to say.

"I will." Aurora was touched by Albie's concern over her. Although they were not siblings by blood, Albie had always given her a very reassuring feeling.

"Go back early. Be careful on the way."

Albie, however, remained standing still, smiling, "I'll see you go in first."

He watched Aurora walk into the house before turning around to leave, but the doubts in his heart were growing. After staying for a while, he finally drove off in his car.

As soon as Aurora entered the house, she did not see a familiar face to greet her.

"Theo?" she called out with confusion.

Without a response, she walked straight upstairs and entered Theodore's room.

He was not there. Aurora furrowed her brows.

Where was this little troublemaker this time?
