Chapter 56 Move in with Me
Aurora raised her head to look at Bailey and Ariana, then glanced at the poker-faced Sion. She explained with embarrassment, “Albie is my brother.”
“Aurora, I don’t know you have a brother. You never told us that.” Ariana said confusingly.
“Hmm. He’s my childhood playmate, but he’s like a brother to me…”
“I was adopted for some time when I was young. I spent several years in Aurora’s family and we grew up together.” Albie cut in and explained.
“Oh, I see.”
Ariana and Bailey were suddenly enlightened and nodded, “We’re going to work with T-Shine. And, we’re more than business partners now. We are kinda family.”
“T-Shine?” Aurora was stunned, “I work there! Albie, you’re the boss of T-Shine, aren’t you?”
“Yep.” Albie nodded, “I didn’t know you’re doing internship in my company until this morning.”
“Oh My! We must have missed lots of chances to meet.” Aurora was so regretful, and thought it was unacceptable that they didn’t meet each other since they worked in the same company.
Albie looked at her and couldn’t help smiling, “It’s OK. We’ve finally met, right?”
Sion stood besides them and remained silent all the time. Interesting! What a coincidence! That Alex was still up in Aurora’s business. Here came Albie again! Thinking of it, Sion got furious and couldn’t wait to pull Aurora over to him.
“Right. There will be ample time.” Bailey said it and noticed Sion’s angry face. Then he patted him on the shoulder and said, “The ceremony is about to start. Come over and give me a hand.”
Sion frowned unconsciously and looked at Aurora with deep love. Still, he left with Bailey.
Bailey walked away and whispered to Ariana, “Tell the host to get started now. Those people are staring at them. They’re making them uncomfortable.”
Soon enough, the wedding ceremony went on perfectly well. Aurora looked at their happy faces in the audience seat and got touched and sentimental, thinking that she could never have such a perfect wedding in her life.
After the wedding ceremony, it was time to party. The soft music was on. Someone took the lead and began inviting their partners to dance.
But Sion still had to walk around with his father and proposed the toasts to the guests. He looked absent-minded and unhappy. Through the dancing crowd, he saw Aurora and Albie chatting and laughing over there, and found it unbearable. He saw Bailey enjoying chatting with other guests, so he put down the glass and tried to go over.
“Sion.” Nevaeh came up to him with a smile and looked at the crowd in the dancing floor, “Would you like to dance with me? It’s been long since last time I danced.”
Sion pursed her lips and said nothing. He raised his eyes and saw Albie suddenly bend down and tell Aurora something. Then both of them stood up and left.
They went to the garden. Aurora sighed, “It’s too noisy inside. It’s much better out here.”
“Albie, where have you been these years? You just disappeared. And you’ve become the boss of T-shine when you came back.” She couldn’t wait to know how Albie was doing these years.
“Abroad.” Albie mentioned it lightly, “T-shine is a branch office. I came back to take charge.”
“How was life abroad? Where did you live? What made you suddenly come back? Why didn’t you contact me in the past years?”
Hearing Aurora’s endless questions, Albie laughed out and stroke her hair softly. “Slow down, my curious baby girl. You’re the same as before.”
Aurora glared at him and complained, “You’re one to talk! You’ve been away for so many years. I don’t know what happened to you. And you… you don’t know what happened to me.”
Certainly, what she meant was her father’s death.
Albie turned to looked at her with dearly love, “Dear Aurora, how have you been these years?”
“Not bad.” Aurora nodded. She paused a little and added, “I had a rough time, but it’s all gone. It’s no big deal when I look back and think of it again.”
Albie paused his steps and said, “Sorry, I came back too late. I shouldn’t have let you go through all those terrible things alone.”
“It’s OK.” Aurora was sad when she thought of her father, but she still forced a smile, “It doesn’t matter. What matters is that you’re back.”
And she actually found those days weren’t so tough because someone was there for her.
“I’ll be here for you from now on.” Albie looked her in the eyes, “I won’t leave you alone again.”
“I know. I won’t talk to you again if you leave me again! Hey! You haven’t told me where you’ve lived when you were abroad.”
Albie blinked his eyes a little and said, “I’ll tell you later.”Property © NôvelDrama.Org.
He just couldn’t tell her about his family situation in one or two words. “Right. I went to the old house to look for you. But why did you move out?”
Aurora nodded and lowered her eyes, “I don’t wanna live there alone. I’ll miss dad.”
In fact, she was thinking whether she should tell Albie that she was married. But she married Sion secretly and they were getting a divorce soon. She just heard Carroll Group was gonna work with T-shine. Would it change anything if she told him at this time? Or, she might just keep it from him first. Moreover, she thought there was no need to tell him.
“Where are you living now?”
“Um…” Aurora blinked her eyes and said, “I live with my friend. He helps me a lot. Don’t worry.”
Albie nodded and said immediately, “Now that I’m back, you can move in with me.”
