Chapter39 Guilty

Aurora blinked her eyes in sorrow, and she didn't want to see them anymore.

It was much to Nevaeh's surprise to see Aurora here at this moment.

Though Aurora was accompanied by another guy, Nevaeh still got coward when thinking of the reason for Aurora's appearance. Nevaeh's mind wandered away with a nervous look.

She took a glance at Sion, and then walked to them with a smile and greeted, "Such a surprise! Are you here for a trip?"

This was the second time she came across Aurora with this man. It seemed they were in a stable relationship.

Thinking of this, Nevaeh smiled more.

Nevaeh's voice was soft and sweet while at this time Alex couldn't get his eyes off this man.

He suspected that it was this man who took Aurora away from the bar last time.

"Indeed a surprise." Alex gave a fake smile, looked at Sion and continued, "it is out of expectation to meet you here."

Sion ignored him and didn't respond, while at the moment he was only staring at Aurora who was absent-minded.

It seemed that Aurora was out of her mind.

What she was thinking of? Was she thinking of their appearance disturbing their date?

Aurora noticed nothing except for the sight from Sion. She didn't dare to look back which would otherwise make her cry.

Nevaeh leaned closer casually and smiled, "we come here for an academic meeting. Since we have nothing to do in the morning, Sion and I decided to have a look at it here. It is such a destiny to meet you there, am I right Sion?"

"It is." Sion still stared at Aurora with an unpleasant look, "what about you?"

Aurora first gave it up in this silent battle.

She cleared up her mind and said awkwardly, "I... I come here for inspiration. It's almost time, I think I'd better go now."

"Do you?"

As Aurora was about to leave, her feet were stopped by his ironic sound, "what kind of inspiration you can get from a such place?"

Sion didn't believe it; she must be dating a man under the name of competition.

Aurora gave a laugh at herself, feeling wronged by his cold voice and attitude.

It was she who rescued him in this place...

Anyway, the past was gone and she didn't want to mention it anymore since he didn't even care about it at all.

Aurora turned back at them with dropped eyes, "my incompetent. I am stuck for fresh ideas so I have to try every method to look for them."

After saying this, she turned back and left immediately without waiting for their response.

It took Alex a while to figure out what happened, so he apologized in a hurry, "sorry for my leaving. Enjoy your day."

Aurora didn't look back as she heard what Alex said, instead she quickened her pace.

Alex caught up with her and suddenly reached out and held her hands. He just wanted to take her away from here though Aurora pretended to be calm. Sion's face fell sharply upon seeing this as if his anger were about to explode.

Nevaeh didn't speak, looking at Aurora's leave with guilty in her eyes.

Charlie and Tommy were outside as well. They asked Sion and Nevaeh to take documents and meet up with them at the meeting.

When Sion and Nevaeh packed up and were about to go downstairs, coincidentally they ran into Aurora and Alex again who just came back.

Aurora couldn't feel even worse.

Looking at them side by side, she felt tired beside surprised.

Why these two people were everywhere?

So was this hotel they lived in yesterday?...

Sions' eyes were as dark as deep waters. Aurora didn't know what he was thinking, she even didn't want to understand it, so she moved her eyes aside.

The four people silently looked at each other.

Neveah was also surprised and was not sure what to do next. She quickly cleared her mind and smiled, "Do you live here as well? Had I known we should have come back together just now?" Aurora didn't want to speak while Alex responded politely, "yup. Such a destiny."

Nevaeh glanced at Sion, and then turned her eyes to Aurora, "we are going to the seminar now. What about having dinner together later?"

Aurora sneered in her heart.

Having dinner together?

She couldn't promise that she would stay calm until the time they had dinner.

However, Alex gave a quick reaction and agreed, "that's great! Fortunately, we haven't had any arrangements for the night."

Aurora was stuck by a strong feeling in her heart, but finally, she comprised.

Nevaeh nodded, reached out and touched Sion, "then see you later."

Sion gave an unspeakable look at Aurora, then followed Nevaeh out and went on the taxi that had been waiting for them outside together. Looking at their leave, Aurora felt even more depressed. She pursed her lips, turned around and went upstairs without saying a word.

Alex walked beside her and paid careful attention to her feelings.

Aurora kept silent all the time which was absolutely strange.

Hence, Alex reached out and stopped her when they were about to arrive, and then let go of her hands in time.

"Are you angry, Aurora?"

She was back to him with dropped eyes, "no. Why should I feel angry? They are just like strangers to me."

"I'm glad you are not angry," Alex seemed to sigh with relief, "Well what I mean is that it's quite fortunate to meet people we know in a foreign place." He stepped forward to the opposite side of Aurora when speaking.

She glanced at him calmly.

Noticing her face, Alex's eyes changed, and he asked, "Is Dr Carroll dating Dr Burns? They are well-matched."

Hearing his words, Aurora got even more depressed as if the feelings hidden in her heart were about to burst out.

However, suddenly she thought that she shouldn't have been so angry with it since it was not the first time she realized they were a well-matched couple. All at once she felt she was like a paradox who was suffering from heartbreaks.

"I got no idea," Aurora didn't look at him. She tried to hide her feelings in her heart, "It's their own business. I had no idea about it."

"You..."

"Alex!" Aurora interrupted him at once. She closed her eyes and committed at an end, "actually, I don't really like people making decisions for me."
