After Divorce I Became A Queen (Aurora and Sion) novel Chapter 26

Chapter 26 “I’m Married”

Hearing this, Aurora lowered her eyes slowly and murmured to herself quietly, "Nevaeh chose to be a surgeon. Maybe that's why."

She didn't know whether Sion didn't hear her or just didn't want to answer it. They stared into the night sky quietly and fell silent with each other.

Aurora kept visiting Elle and her father in the hospital almost every day since then. Jacob's surgery was successful. He'd been transferred to a general ward, but still had to stay longer for further observation.

It was Saturday. After breakfast, Aurora took a taxi to the hospital. She went into the ward and said with a smile, "Good morning, Jacob. You look great today."

Jacob put on a kind smile and said, "Good morning, Aurora. Yeah. Maybe I can leave the hospital very soon. Thanks for coming over and helping us these days. I appreciate it."

Then he narrowed his eyes and asked, "Aurora, are you about the same age as Elle?"

"Yep."

They were born in the same year, and she was only three months older than Elle.

Jacob nodded and said, "Good..."

Someone knocked at the door and interrupted him.

Afterwards, Sion came in with two young nurses. He looked as calm and cool as usual and didn't pay any attention to Aurora. He just took over the ward-round records, which were handed over by a nurse, and began reading them.

By contrast, Aurora was a little timid and dared not look him in the eyes.

Elle looked at them and smiled, "Dr Carroll, when can my father go home?"

Sion said with a straight face, "How about his blood pressure and blood fat over these two days?"

"Good."

"Dizzy?"

Elle wasn't sure of it. Then she turned to Jacob, "Dad, do you feel dizzy?"

Jacob thought about it and said, "Sometimes. But not too seriously."

"Keep paying attention to the blood pressure. Get one more brain scan. If no intracranial haemorrhage is found, your father can go home in three days."

"That's great." Elle was excited, as she'd been bored to death in the hospital, "Thank you, Dr Carroll."

Sion was a very good surgeon.

It was a pity that they got married secretly. Or, she should have bragged to her father that his attending doctor was Aurora's husband.

Sion nodded slightly. He took the nurses to one side, pointed at the ward-round records and told them the matters needing attention.

Jacob saw Sion was done checking on him and went back to where they were.

He turned to Aurora and said, "Aurora, I have a niece. He's a handsome smart guy and two years older than you. Surely, he's a promising young man. Look. Would you like to be introduced to him?"

Aurora didn't expect that and got speechless all of a sudden. She hummed and hawed for a while and didn't know what she should say.

Suddenly, she heard the young nurse's confusing voice, "Dr Carroll, what's wrong? Why did you stop talking?"

"... Nothing."
