After Divorce I Became A Queen (Aurora and Sion) novel Chapter 21

Chapter 21 Run into Her at the Bar

Aurora didn't want to dwell on her divorce now that Sion had promised to postpone it and only wished that she could get through these days without incident.

Sion still disappeared in the morning and reappeared at night. They barely met each other.

At the end of the workday, Aurora invited her colleagues to dinner.

She had been feeling embarrassed for a long time because Avada got in the way of her last colleague's dinner party.

It was still early after dinner. Her colleagues were in a good mood, so they suggested going to a nearby bar and having a drink.

Naturally, Aurora didn't want to disappoint them and thought that it would be OK going to a bar to relax.

The atmosphere in the bar was awesome, and everyone quickly felt relaxed amid loud music and fantastic lighting. And soon Aurora was less bashful.

"Come on, fill your glass!"

Luca Miah, one of her colleagues, was filling everyone's glass.

When it was Aurora's turn, she leaned to him and said loudly, waving her hand, "... I can't drink, it's not my thing. Go ahead."

Luca said at the top of his voice, "It doesn't matter. Now the biggest thing is having fun. It doesn't matter how much you can drink."

Abigail also supported what he just said, "Yeah! We drink together, it's fun!"

Aurora said with embarrassment, "I think you guys won't say that when I'm drunk."

It was true-she would become obstreperous when she got drunk.

After cracking some jokes, everyone hold a glass filled with alcohol.

It was difficult to refuse at this moment, so all Aurora could do was pluck up her glass.

After two rounds, they started to give a toast to her one by one to welcome her into the design department.

Looking at Aurora all the time, Alex handed her a bottle of water and asked, "Are you okay?"

Aurora whispered, "I'll be drunk if I drink anymore... I'll play mad by then!"

Alex smiled, "Don't worry, I'll get you home safe no matter how badly you play mad."

Feeling a kink of frustration, Aurora curled her lip towards him, "Never mind. Let's just say I'm willing to be drunk with my colleagues."

Apparently, she didn't want to seem like a loner when she just joined a new group.

After another drink, Aurora felt a gear in her brain starting running more slowly and more slowly and seemed to be getting stuck.

Getting dizzy, she became eager to laugh without reason and more talkative.

The colleague sitting next to her was shaking her body with the music. Inspired by her, Aurora stood up and pulled her straight onto the dance floor.

Meanwhile, sitting on a sofa at the back of the dance floor, Sion raised his head and took the last sip from the glass.

He got a glimpse of his watch and stood up to fetch his coat, "Let's call it a day. We should go."

Standing up from the sofa, Seth Harvey looked around and still felt unsatisfied, "Hey, every time I hang out with you, I have to go home as soon as we finished our drinks. Man, this is so boring!"

Sion ignored his complaint and turned to walk outside.

"Hey, hold on..."

Reaching out and taking Sion's hand, Seth looked at the middle of the dance floor and asked rather doubtfully, "Do my eyes deceive me? Is the girl dancing there your Aurora?"

Sion stopped and looked back to the direction that Seth pointed, and he drew his brows immediately.

It was her. The girl shaking her body oddly in the middle of the dance floor was Aurora.

This was her first time dancing, so she didn't know how to do it and just moved her body to the beat.

The kick of the drink nearly knocked her over, and the hot air in the bar made her face turn bright red.

She didn't notice that Sion was staring at her with icy eyes.

"Oh my God... I'm throwing up..."

She got carried away with her dancing and tossed her head around, which made her feel groggy.

Alex wriggled his way through the crowd and steadied Aurora, "Do you need to use the restroom? Need any help?"

Aurora was a little out of her depth, so she looked up with a silly smile, "Oh, thank you!"

Alex paused for a second because of her smile, and then he hurriedly averted his gaze and carefully helped her walk to the restroom.
