After Divorce I Became A Queen (Aurora and Sion)

Chapter 296 Seaside Hotel



Chapter 296 Seaside Hotel

"Hi, Aurora," Sion answered the phone quickly, his voice filled with unrestrained joy.

"Have you rested?"

"No," Sion replied. The sound of a mouse clicking could be heard from his end of the line before it fell

silent. It sounded like he had just shut down his computer. "I was just dealing with some emails and

finished up now."

His voice was gentle and pleasant to listen to.

"Do you know about Seth being together with Elle? Did you hear about it?"

"Seth?" Sion raised an eyebrow. Aurora had called him first, which made him very happy. He didn't

expect her to call for information on Seth's situation.

However, after thinking for a moment, he was quite surprised by the news.

"Elle? Aurora's best friend? When did they start getting involved with each other?" Sion thought to

himself.

He was shocked inside. Recently he and Seth were both busy doing their things so they hadn't been in

contact much lately; naturally, he didn't know anything about this matter.

But now that Aurora had sought him out for information on this matter, saying that he didn't know would

not work out well for him. Based on what he knew about Aurora, if he said that he didn't know, she

would hang up the phone immediately.

"Do you know about that?" His answer seemed ambiguous and Sion couldn't help but curl up the

corners of his mouth slightly.

But as it turned out this kind of persistent pursuit worked quite effectively. Aurora responded with an

affirmative sound without blaming him for not telling her earlier.

He wasn't obligated to tell her everything after all; especially since they currently don't have any

relationship between them.

Aurora lowered her eyes and briefly recounted what happened during the day before saying, "I don't

even understand how they became so close so fast?"

She could tell that Seth was not playing around; he was rather serious about things between himself

and Elle. Otherwise, she wouldn't have let Elle leave alone together with him. NôvelDrama.Org owns this.

Sion leaned back against the chair backrest while lightly agreeing, "I never expected it either."

At this point, Sion had completely processed this news while also feeling envious at the same time.

Although there was some emotional foundation between him and Aurora, there hadn't been any

progress made, and that guy managed to talk about marriage within such a short period.

Thinking of this, he was a little jealous of Seth.

Aurora was sitting in the chair in a more comfortable position. She didn't notice the change in his tone

and she said, "Has Seth mentioned anything about wanting to marry Elle?"

Sion's lips moved instinctively to deny it, but he held back just in time and instead seized the

opportunity by saying, "Yes."

Aurora was curious upon hearing this. "So what's going on exactly?"

"It's not something that can be explained in just a few words. Why don't we talk about it face-to-face?"

Sion smirked.

He was so clever, coming up with an excuse to meet her like this. But at the same time, he couldn't

help feeling a bit self-deprecating for having to resort to such methods just to see Aurora.

For some reason, Aurora felt like he wasn't telling her everything but after thinking about it for a

moment she replied anyway, "Okay then, when are you free?"

"How about tomorrow?" Sion's eyes lit up.

"Sure," she considered for a moment before agreeing since she wasn't busy lately anyway.

The next day after finishing her work at the company, Aurora waited for Sion who had said that he

would come pick her up and take her somewhere.

She wanted to ask him why they couldn't just talk over the phone but decided against it since she

needed information from him and wherever they went didn't matter as long as she got what she wanted

in the end.

Elle was one of Aurora's closest people besides Theodore and Morgan. She had every right to care

about Elle's affairs too.

Sion parked his car downstairs before calling Aurora, who spent some idle time tidying herself up while

waiting for him outside. Sion already looked superior enough but he dressed even more formally today

than usual, which attracted passersby onlookers' eyes frequently.

When Aurora saw how eye-catching he looked from afar upon walking out of their building lobby, she

couldn't help rolling her eyes inwardly while thinking, "This man is such an attention seeker!"

But despite all that though, she still had no choice but to admit that whether by appearance or

temperament alone, Sion would look good even if wearing potato sacks.

With these thoughts in mind, she unconsciously walked towards him.

"Where are we going?"

As soon as Sion saw her approaching, he opened the passenger door for her and said, "You'll know

when we get there."

"... Alright then."

Aurora followed him into the car. Sion only exchanged a few words with her along the way, which

surprised her a bit. He had been getting closer to her these days, so it was unusual for him to suddenly

stop talking.

Sion intended to give her a surprise and didn't want to spoil it by revealing too much during their

conversation. They arrived at Seaside Hotel without incident.

"Can't believe there's such a place in Lower Hopton." Aurora looked surprised as she saw the beach

right next to the parking lot.

Although Lower Hopton was coastal, most of its coastline consisted of docks and ports with very few

beaches like this one. At least, she had never seen one before.

"Yeah," Sion nodded as they walked side by side towards the hotel entrance. "Nice place, I think you'll

like it."

From there, they could see the scenery across from them. The sea in the distance was clean and blue,

and there was no visible trash on the beach. Quite a few people were playing with their children, which

made them feel relaxed and happy.

Aurora couldn't help but laugh when she saw mischievous children playing in the distance.

"Indeed, a nice place." She nodded.

As he watched Aurora's expression soften, Sion felt his heart warm even more than before. He had

arranged everything overnight just so he could talk about something important between them later on;

after all, other people's matters weren't nearly as important as theirs were, especially since he wasn't

sure what happened between Seth and Elle recently.

He took advantage of inviting Aurora out for selfish reasons.

The outdoor restaurant area around them was carefully decorated with roses, white mixed evenly

among pink ones, while nearby stood an elegant piano adding an extra touch of romance to their

surroundings.

As soon as Aurora stepped inside, she couldn't help but be shocked by everything around her. "Did you

prepare all this?"

They were supposed to talk about Elle's situation together; why did things have to feel like some kind of

confession scene?

"Yeah," said Sion politely pulling out her chair for her before asking, "Do you like it?"

Aurora gave him an odd look before shifting herself onto one of those chairs without answering his

question. She found his behaviour somewhat confusing.
