Chapter 265 Aurora, Help Me

Aurora noticed the intensity in his eyes and suppressed her emotions.

"What are you talking about? I don't understand." Said she.

Sion tightened his grip on her shoulders and looked at her with restrained pain.

"Can you just... tell me the truth?"

If it was Aurora that night, their betrayal of each other would have never existed. There was nothing whether between him and Nevaeh or Aurora and Albie. Besides, Aurora's refusal of Albie's proposal made Sion more convinced of his view.

Aurora shifted her gaze away from him and in the darkness of the night, her amber eyes were hard to see clearly as she spoke coldly, "Mr Carroll, you're overthinking things. I don't know what you're talking about. If what you say is true, then Nevaeh should have been by your side back then. If there's anything unclear about this situation, you should ask her."

Even if it wasn't Nevaeh that night, they still ended up together later on anyway. She hadn't forgotten the fact that Nevaeh had been pregnant before.

"But I called you, I don't believe you haven't been there." Sion protested.

Aurora found this even more amusing than before and she couldn't forget what he had said to her that night.

"Is this because things aren't going well between Miss Burns and you? Why are you suddenly bringing up your ex-wife again? Are trying to show off your charm by forcing these theatrics onto me?" Her mocking tone cut like a knife through Sion's heart.

He stared intently at Aurora, trying to detect any signs of lying from her expression while surrounded by complete silence, except for an unknown insect chirping sound echoing around them. Suddenly a wave of heat rushed over him causing him to jerk sideways, propping himself against the car beside them while looking into Aurora's with an increasingly fiery gaze.

Aurora hasn't forgiven him yet. He didn't think he would be allowed to force himself onto her.

He pinched his thigh hard, attempting to calm down, but instead, he felt dizzy and leaned against the car for support. Aurora saw him suddenly fall ill-like onto the car. "Mr Carroll?" She called out uncertainly.

The man showed no response as if he hadn't heard anything.

Aurora walked towards him hesitantly and poked him. The next second, he collapsed and leaned on her with almost all of his weight. She was nearly knocked over.

"What kind of madness has gotten into you again?" Aurora huffed.

Sion leaned on her shoulder without moving. The medicine had fully taken effect, and he was sweating all over, suppressing his voice as he said, "Aurora, don't move... just a little longer." Feeling that he was going to be insane today, Aurora pushed him again.

"What's wrong with you?" asked she.

This man was trembling all over. She could feel that his temperature was abnormally high through the fabric of their clothes.

Could it be a fever?

"Hey, Sion!"

Sion didn't respond and seemed to have no strength to even stand up. He unconsciously nuzzled into her neck twice as if he could faint at any moment.

That caught her off guard. Aurora didn't understand why he suddenly fell ill like this.

"Get up!" She couldn't bear the weight of this man pressing down on her and helped him up by pushing him slightly.

"Should I call 911 for you or replace your assistant?" asked Aurora.

Honestly speaking, she even wanted to just leave him here. But if something happened later, it would be troublesome to explain then.

"Aurora..."

Finally, Sion spoke while holding onto her tighter.

"Don't worry about me, let me rest for a bit."

Aurora rolled her eyes at him. She intended to leave but Sion didn't loosen his grip and let her go.

"What are you doing here anyway?" After hesitating for a moment, Aurora unwillingly asked, "Go inside."

Then she worried that Sion might misunderstand her intention and added coldly, "Just rest for a bit. You should leave immediately when you're better."

Sion stiffened momentarily. Then he lifted his head and said with surprise in his clear eyes, "Thank you, Aurora."

Aurora feel like she had fallen into some sort of trap. She stood aside but didn't pull away from the hand resting on her shoulder forcefully and said firmly, "I'm just letting you rest for a while. Once you're feeling better, hurry up and leave!"

After saying that though, she felt like something wasn't right. What if he didn't get better soon and wouldn't want to leave?

"Call your assistant when you sat down later. Isn't he on call 24 hours? I don't think you have to worry about the time." Added Aurora.

Upon hearing her tone, Sion couldn't help but feel amused and intentionally slowed down his steps. For him, Aurora now seemed to have regained the precious memories of her former self before Professor Robertson's death. She was indulgent, lively and full of vitality. However, all of this came to an end after she married him. He failed to protect her, which caused the once passionate girl to gradually wrap hersel up like a cocoon, introverted, obedient and not good with words.

Thinking about these things made his heart ache in waves, as countless regrets rushed towards him like waves crashing on the shore. His body which was already restless became almost suffocating at this

moment.

Aurora looked at his expression and frowned before sarcastically saying, "Don't think that I'll be soft-hearted just because you're acting pitiful in front of me. I told you that you must call your assistant once you go inside or else I'll call 911. You can't stay here."

She didn't bother hiding her disgust, as she supported him while walking, which made her voice sound a bit hurried due to Sion's heavyweight.

"Okay, I'll listen to you." At this point no matter what Aurora said he would agree.

Once they entered the living room, Aurora started feeling tired and there was a moment when she almost fell. But Sion quickly caught her. The familiar scent filled their noses, which seemed to evoke deep feelings within them both.

He didn't let go and looked at her with red eyes murmuring, "Aurora..."

Aurora felt something off about his eyes so she pulled away from him directly onto the sofa.

"I'm going to get some water for you, get some rest." Said she.

She felt like this man was too dangerous right now, so it would be better if they kept their distance. But just as she turned around, she suddenly stepped on something hard underfoot, causing herself to fall straight onto the man's chest.

At that moment, she even forgot that she was still lying on top of Sion. All of her attention focused solely on the Barbie doll underfoot.

It was Morgan's toy!

If Sion found out, he would be suspicious. After all, he knew that she only had Theodore as her child. In a moment of desperation, Aurora covered his eyes with her palms and tried to kick the Barbie doll under the sofa with her foot. Little did she know that this action was causing Sion unbearable agony. The effects of the medicine had fully taken hold of him. The woman writhing in his arms was Aurora, his beloved for many years. How could he remain indifferent?

Sion couldn't help but let out a low groan. Aurora froze at the sound and took advantage of the opportunity to climb to her feet and kick the doll under the sofa.

Sion's body grew increasingly hot at this point. Seeing that she was about to leave, he suddenly reached out and grabbed her hand, refusing to let go. "Ugh... I feel so bad." His voice was husky and carried a seductive tone as if it were accompanied by a plea for mercy.

And he continued, "Aurora, help me."
