After Divorce I Became A Queen (Aurora and Sion) novel Chapter 5

Chapter 5 The Man She was Expecting

While speaking, he opened the door and got off the car.

Not until he closed the door did Aurora collect herself. With her hand on her chest, she could feel her heart beating fiercely.

From the very beginning, she knew she was overwhelmed by his enchanting appearance.

Her heartbeat would be running wild whenever she looked at his face.

Sion strode into a pharmacy.

He talked to a pharmacist at the counter, "I need an ice-cold bottle of water, some gauze, antiphlogistic pills, a bottle of iodine and scald ointment."

The female pharmacist turned and blushed while staring at his face, "Oh…okay…"

She took over what he asked for and handed them to him. Then she took a few peeps at his face.

After paying the money, Sion took an impassive glance at her.

Seeing that, the pharmacist hurried to lower her head.

When he returned to the car, Aurora was leaning on the window to look at him with her innocent eyes.

She was touched and surprised when seeing what he was holding-it appeared that he was preparing to tend her scald.

Just a few minutes ago, she thought he didn't even care about her.

Sion cast a gaze at her pretty adorable face in fair skin with her cute almond eyes. She looked as young as a high schooler.

He couldn't help swallowing.

He cleared his voice and averted his eyes from her, "Turn your back on me."

His voice remained emotionless as if he were working while unwrapping what he bought.

She felt like he might even talk more softly to his patients than to her.

She turned her back on him as told. Then she could see how he worked on her back from the reflection on the window.

She noticed even his fingers appeared perfectly long and slim.

Sion drenched the gauze with ice-cold water. Then he was about to lift her top.

He took a look at her instinctively. Then he noticed her curling herself up on the seat with her back on him and her big eyes blinking while she was staring at him from the reflection in the window.

She looked so cute and obedient.

At the thought of that, Sion lowered his head and slightly lifted her top to cover the scald with gauze drenched with cold water.

She had been so obedient and amiable that she never seemed to complain ever since they got married.

Or perhaps he wasn't the reason for her to complain.

Of course, Aurora had no idea about what was on his mind. As soon as the scald was covered with gauze, the pain started crawling all over just a second after the coolness.

She gritted hard to prevent herself from screaming.

Sion took a look at her face, feeling a bit sorry to see her struggling to swallow down the pain.

But luckily, no blister appeared on the scald.

He hurried to slow down his move and stuffed something into her hand. Then he said softly, "Just scream out if it's too hurt. No need to play tough."

Aurora spread out her hand. She was touched as soon as she saw what it was-it was her favourite candy.

She unwrapped it and put it into her mouth. Soon, she felt so much refreshed, "Sweet."

The sweetness seemed to mitigate the pain.

Aurora smiled delightedly, "Thank you. I am happy to have a candy from you."

Did she like candy? Or was it because the man she had been expecting had ever done the same thing?

Then Sion carefully applied some iodine on her waist. Then he took back his hand and leaned onto the seat again.

He fixed his eyes on her radiant-looking face. Then he asked softly, "Are you still waiting for him?"

Stunned, Aurora fell into a short pause.

Waiting for him?

She didn't notice whom Sion referred to until quite a while later. Then she nodded firmly, "Yeah, I believe he will be back."

Of course, he had every reason to be back, whom she relied on for years just like her brother. They had been through a lot together for so long that their relationship had gone beyond those bound by blood.

Even if he were to start a new life, he would return to visit her once again and pay a decent farewell to this girl who was like his sister.

Sion slightly tapped on the steering wheel with his finger. Under the streetlight coming through the window, his expression was hard to tell. So were his eyes.

His deep voice revealed no obvious feeling, "In the past three years of our marriage, you should have told me about that much earlier."

Aurora took a look of surprise at him.

Suddenly, a sudden ringtone broke the silent air.

Sion took out his phone, on the screen of which Nevaeh's name appeared rather conspicuous.
