Unpredictable Betrayal : A Sweet of Revenge

Chapter 95



“Hey, how’s Aurora? Is she okay?”

Finding out that his sister suddenly lost consciousness, Asher panicked as well. After work, along with their mother, Asher decided to immediately follow Aurora, who was already at home.

Upon arrival, Asher found Alden already there. He was somewhat relieved because Aurora had received initial treatment from his colleague.

“She’s still weak. I’ve asked her to rest fully. I’ve also told the house assistant to prepare warm soup so she can eat and take her medicine later.”

Asher nodded in understanding. Now it was his turn to take action.

“Thanks a lot for being prompt to help and bringing Aurora home, Al.”

“No problem. I’ll take my leave now. If there’s anything, please let me know as soon as possible.”

As Alden left, Asher and his mother hurried to Aurora’s room. There, he found his sister lying down, looking weak and frail.

“Are you sure you don’t want to be admitted to the hospital? You’re weak like this.”

Aurora shook her head, immediately rejecting what Asher had just offered.

“No need. I’m fine. I’ll just rest at home.”

“But your blood pressure is very low. Or should I get an IV for you? So you can rest properly.”

Again, Aurora shook her head, refusing what Asher offered.

“No need. I really am fine. Just need to rest at home as usual today. Tomorrow will be better.”

Seeing Aurora insist on resting at home, Asher finally agreed. Essentially, Aurora was the type of woman who couldn’t be forced into anything.

“Alright then. But before I leave, let me give you a vitamin shot so you won’t deteriorate further. And as a precaution, Mom said she’ll stay here until you’re in better condition than now.”

This time, Aurora nodded in agreement. After being given a vitamin injection and once again ensuring her condition was okay, Asher decided to leave. He left Aurora with their mother, who would accompany and stay until her condition improved.

Elenna took care of Aurora diligently. She let her daughter rest first.

As night approached, Elenna brought food to the room and helped feed Aurora. She made sure her beloved daughter finished the meal she had prepared.

“How are you feeling? Any more headaches?”

While massaging Aurora’s feet, Elenna asked, making sure whether her daughter’s condition was improving or worsening. But seeing Aurora sitting up strong and now leaning back on the bed, Elenna believed that Aurora’s condition was much better than before.

“I’m feeling better, Mom. Not as tense as before.”

“Thank goodness.”

Elenna truly felt relieved. She knew both her children, especially Aurora, rarely fell ill since they were young.

Upon hearing from Asher that Aurora had suddenly fainted, he was naturally worried. Elenna was convinced that Aurora must have reached a point of exhaustion to the extent that her condition dropped as it is now.

“Have you been sleeping poorly or something? According to Asher, your blood pressure is really low. Could it be that there’s some problem?”

Elenna knew Aurora’s habits well. From the numerous illnesses her daughter had experienced, Elenna knew that if Aurora’s blood pressure was low, she must be stressed or involved in some trouble.

“I’ve just been having a lot on my mind lately.”

“What could you possibly be thinking about that’s making you this sick? Is it related to Savana? Or perhaps Alden’s mother’s request?”

Aurora glanced over. Even if she didn’t want to share, she was sure her mother had her own intuition about her. Moreover, Asher had also told their mother about the issues he faced without leaving out any detail.

Not to mention Savana’s crazy behavior. Elenna even knew about Alden’s mother’s request for Aurora to distance herself from her son for a while.

“That’s one of the reasons, Mom. It’s indeed Mrs. Savana who’s the main cause of me being this sick.”

Elenna felt both sad and sorry seeing Aurora’s clearly exhausted face. She approached, gently stroking Aurora’s wrist as if to strengthen her daughter’s resolve.

Elenna knew there were many problems plaguing her daughter. She realized that Aurora was a strong and patient person. She persisted despite always being belittled and regarded as a useless daughter-in-law. Twice betrayed by her husband and her own cousin.

And now, even after the divorce, she had to endure vicious slander that had serious repercussions. It was only human that Aurora’s condition eventually collapsed like it did now.

“You’re the one who’s patient, Aurora. You’re Mama’s strongest child.”

With teary eyes, Elenna embraced her. She held Aurora close while tears streamed down her face. It was heartbreaking to see her daughter endure so much suffering, seemingly never given the chance to experience complete happiness.

“If you’re tired, you can rest first. Don’t force yourself,” Elenna whispered softly into her daughter’s ear. Her voice sounded fragile, indicating immense sadness. Despite her promise not to cry, she couldn’t hold back any longer.

“Just leave everything to Asher. Let him handle it all.”

Truly, Elenna was afraid. She feared that not only Aurora’s physical health but also her mental well-being would be disturbed if she continued to be bombarded with unresolved problems. Elenna couldn’t bear to see her daughter suffer endlessly.

Realizing her mother’s sadness, Aurora tried to loosen the embrace. She wiped the tears from her mother’s cheeks, then tried to smile.

“Forgive Aurora, Mama. I’m sorry for always worrying you like this.”

Elenna shook her head. She cupped Aurora’s cheeks.

“You don’t need to apologize. You’ve done nothing wrong.”

Aurora took a deep breath. Trying to calm herself, she asked again.

“In your opinion, should Aurora just follow Alden’s mother’s request to distance herself for a while?”

Elenna remained silent for a moment. She delved into Aurora’s brown eyes. She looked deeply to ensure she understood what her daughter had just said.

“Actually, Mama doesn’t have the right to decide because it’s you who’s in the relationship. But, personally, and if I may give advice, Mama wants you to rest for a while. You also need a break to calm yourself. Refresh your mind and heart from various problems and complexities that have occurred. If forced, I’m afraid you might lose your mind. It would be a pity for Mama’s beautiful daughter to lose her sanity.”

Aurora chuckled softly. Her mother’s joke managed to lift her mood. She listened attentively to what was advised to her.

“So, it’s okay if Aurora takes a short break.”

Elenna smiled. She kissed the back of Aurora’s hand that she had been holding.

“When you’re tired, you really need to rest, right? If forced, things might get worse and fall apart.” Elenna paused for a moment in her sentence. Then she continued speaking. “But, whatever your decision is, don’t forget to discuss everything with Alden. Regardless, he has the right to know your final decision. Considering you two are in a serious relationship now.”

Aurora listened carefully. After thinking it over, it seemed like she needed to do what her mother had said. After that, she contacted Asher to discuss something.

In the evening, before going to bed and truly resting, Aurora received a call from Alden. She knew for sure that her beloved was worried about her current condition.

“Have you eaten and taken your medicine?”

Alden asked to make sure. From his voice, the concern was still evident.

“I’ve done everything.”All content is © N0velDrama.Org.

“And, are you still feeling dizzy like earlier this afternoon?”

“It’s getting better,” Aurora replied softly. “After being injected by Asher, my condition is much better now. I can sit up.”

“In that case, just rest now. Tomorrow morning, before work, I’ll stop by to bring you breakfast.”

“No need,” Aurora refused. “Let’s just meet in the afternoon. We already planned to have dinner together.”

Alden fell silent for a moment. Then shortly after, his voice could be heard again.

“Are you sure you still want to meet and have dinner tomorrow night?”

“Why? What’s wrong?”

“Why?” Alden sounded puzzled. “Your condition isn’t good right now, dear. If you want, we can reschedule for the following day until you’re completely okay.”

“No.” Aurora refused again. “I’m feeling better now, and I want to meet you tomorrow. It’s been a while since we had dinner together. Besides, there’s something important I need to tell you and discuss with you in person.”

“Okay… okay… if you’re sure you’re feeling much better, we’ll meet and have dinner together tomorrow. The important thing is to rest today and get some sleep.”

While holding her phone, Aurora nodded. “Yes, I’m going to sleep now. You should rest too.”

“Yeah, dear. In that case, see you tomorrow afternoon.”
