Sion looked at the woman who was so close that he could almost touch her, feeling as if she was radiating light from every inch of her skin. She acted decisively and solved such a big problem in this way, which made him like her even more.


    Being allowed to observe, Aurora heard all the questions the police asked Karen and Karen’s answers, which orded with what she had known. After, Aurora intended to leave.


    Sion didn’t hesitate and followed her footsteps after ncing in Karen’s direction.


    “Aurora!”


    The sound was like a spell. As soon as he shouted it out, Aurora stepped on a round stone under her foot and almost stumbled. It wasn’t until the strong arms of the man held her that she finally stood firm.


    “What do you want to do?!”


    Aurora struggled out of his embrace and got cross. “There’s not so much between us that needs to be said. Why do you keep pestering me?”


    In Aurora’s eyes, he lied a lot.


    “I don’t mean anything else,” Sion squeezed his empty hands. “Just wanted to ask how you got here, do you need me to give you a ride?”


    “Your beloved one is now on the wanted list, and you still have the mind to send me back?”


    It seemed like nothing changed her impression of him, who was a top-notch, two-faced hypocrite pretending to be loving and caring.


    Sion smiled bitterly.


    “Aurora, what do I have to say for you to believe me? I just care about the truth behind Morgan’s kidnapping and why those three criminals ended up dead.”


    “Is that so?” Aurora remained indifferent, “If I remember correctly, Mr Carroll, you recently went to Nevaeh’s house. Why couldn’t you discuss whatever it was outside? Did you have to go to her house in person?”


    As she finished the words, she realized she had said something redundant. She turned around, striding towards her car. Sion stood still for a while, and suddenly a surge of excitement overwhelmed him.N?vel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.


    Was Aurora jealous?


    He did go to find Nevaeh, but it was for the evidence.


    Suddenly, he thought of the anomalies of the car after leaving Nevaeh’s house, and his eyes widened instantly.


    Was it possible that Aurora intentionally messed with his car?


    At the thought of this, he felt ted since it proved that Aurora did care about him. As he watched the woman in his sight getting farther and farther away, he quickly lifted his feet and caught up with her.


    “Aurora!”


    The opened car door was pushed close by him. Sion circled her between him and the car, holding her against his chest and said, “Are you jealous?”


    Aurora was wordless for his narcissism.


    Sion felt her anger rising again, and quickly said, “Let me exin it?”


    “It’s not my business!”


    After Aurora finished speaking fiercely, she felt that the distance between the two of them was a little too close, so she turned her head away.


    In Sion’s eyes, this was even more of a jealous expression.


    “I went to find her because Nevaeh said there were clues about three criminals in her house. And luckily, I got this in her house…” As he spoke, he smoothly pulled out the ne from his pocket. Aurora couldn’t help but be drawn to the ne, recognizing at first nce that it was from her favourite brand from before.


    Cab of Memory?


    Aurora’s heart armour suddenly loosened a bit, but her face remained cold as she asked, “What is this?”


    “This is the ne that I wanted to give you five years ago.”


    Sion’s gaze fell on the diamond, and there was a hint of self-deprecation on his wless face. “I’ve been waiting for so long, and finally the day hase when I can say these words to you in person.”


    Aurora looked at him, somewhat entranced.


    Was this man Sion, who used to be so aloof and never bothered to exin anything?


    She remained silent. Sion continued to say, “When I bought this ne, I exchanged it with my deepest secret. I wondered what story you used to exchange for those earrings you once bought. I know that one day you will be willing to tell me. Now, I am going to tell you a secret that is in my heart.”


    He looked serious and his gaze towards Aurora was intense.


    “I used to never dare to say… but since I first saw you at 18, I have been deeply in love with you. It’s you who made me fall into the river of love.”


    The mellow and deep voice, as if carrying the gentlest melody of a cello, entered Aurora’s ears word by word. He said that she was the one who made him fall in love. Aurora didn’t believe it and even wanted tough, but her heart kept racing madly. She couldn’t even understand this strange feeling herself.


    Sion could feel her nervousness and he was d he spoke up.


    “Aurora… can you give me another chance? I want you to go back to me.”


    Unexpectedly, he would say something like this. Aurora’s thoughts drifted for a moment, then she quickly pushed him away.


    “Sion,”


    She suppressed her beating heart and instinctively refused, “Since things between us have be a thing of the past, can’t we just be friends?”


    When Sion heard her words, his pitch-ck eyes instantly dimmed. He felt as if his lost heart had fallen off a cliff, followed by an overwhelming sense of loss that had nowhere to cling to.


    A sh ofpassion passed through Aurora’s heart when she saw his deste appearance. But she thought that love was about mutual consent. She shouldn’tpromise just because she couldn’t bear it.


    She stood still without moving. “You…”


    “Let’s not talk about that for now,” Sion spoke first. “But this ne was bought for you anyway, it’s more appropriate for you to keep it.”


    Then, he handed over the ne to her before turning around and leaving.


    His tall figure wasn’t straightened up; instead, there seemed to be some traces of vicissitudes on him.


    Aurora held onto the ne in confusion for a while before feeling unsure of what to do with it next. But, she had no intention of being with Sion again anyway; naturally, there was no reason for her to keep this ne. She thus intended to return it when she met him next time.
