Both Aurora and Sion stayed overnight in the Carroll Manor.
While she was watching TV with Ariana, the father and son seemed to go missing.
There was a romance movie being played on the screen, in which both the hero and heroine were kissing affectionately and then they both fell onto the bed under the effect of hormones.
Aurora looked a bit embarrassed with Ariana staying beside her.
"So nice to be young." Ariana didn't seem to be bothered by embarrassment. Instead, she started sighing, "We should have tried everything romantic when we were young…"
While speaking, she approached to whisper to Aurora, "Hey, how are you going with Sion?"
She was indicating her wish to have a grandchild.
Of course, Aurora could tell what she meant.
Her face soon turned blushed. Never did she expect Ariana to bring up such a topic.
How should she respond to it?
"Well, we…" stammering, Aurora appeared too flustered to provide a full sentence to answer.
Seeing her reaction, Ariana soon noticed what was going on.
Just a moment ago, she considered it nothing serious but a casual joke. Never did she expect to get something unexpected from Aurora.
But at a second thought, she found it rather unusual.
Both Aurora and Sion should be at the young age of the fiery mind, she reckoned.
She couldn't help wondering if it was true about the gossip Bailey just mentioned during lunch.
If so, Aurora must be suffering.
"Aurora…I will prepare some supplements for both of you. It's time to nourish your bodies after so much hard work."
She got to do something to heat up the relationship between this young couple, she supposed.
But she didn't convey her meaning aboveboard, hoping that Aurora and Sion wouldn't fail what she hoped for.
However, Aurora was too innocent to notice that. She nodded obediently. Of course, out of respect for the elder, she wouldn't say no.
As time went by, the movie was over.
It was getting late enough for bed.
Aurora went upstairs. Nervous and uneasy, she headed to Sion's room.
Tonight, they were going to sleep in the same room.
When living in their own house, they slept in different rooms respectively.
But now if they were going to stay in the Carroll Manor overnight, they had to sleep together.
It wasn't their first time encountering such a situation.
When Sion finished showering, he saw Aurora drinking something.
While rubbing his hair to get it dry, he walked over and asked, "What are you drinking?"
It smelt a bit special.
Aurora raised her head. She somehow felt like the dizziness was getting much stronger inside her head, "Ariana gave me this. She also told you to have some."
While speaking, she pointed at another bowl of the same soup and handed it to him, "Here you go. It tastes good."
Sion took it over. As soon as the smell went through his nostrils, he felt like it was getting stronger.
Frowning, he approached to sniff again.
As he recognized what was inside, he turned a bit sulky.
Sion took a weird look at her, asking in a questioning tone, "You want me to drink it?"
Aurora nodded, "Yeah, it took Ariana a few hours to prepare. You can't fail her kindness."
Sion looked even more displeased, "Take it away!"
Then he stuffed the bowl back into her hand.
As he turned around, he grabbed his phone and started browsing.
The displeasure on his face appeared too conspicuous to ignore, which Aurora found rather confusing.
Looking at the soup, she deemed him a bit ungrateful.
Every time they paid a visit here, Ariana had been busy preparing anything delicious to offer them a warm welcome. Of course, she would never fail her.
