Chapter 55 Albie, Finally, You’re Back!
His assistant happened to go talk to him. Then he turned around with his face to Aurora. At that moment, Aurora saw his face clearly, and she nearly was out of breath. She couldn’t hear a sound and her mind went blank. All she could see was the man who she’d been looking for these years.
“Albie…” She opened her mouth with difficulty and found her voice shaking. Aurora cleared her throat, held back the tears and called out loudly, “Albie!… Albie!”
The music stopped for a second, and everyone had heard her and turned around to look at her.
Albie was stunned and couldn’t believe his ears. He looked back slowly, and saw a cute girl staring at him with tears. They looked at each other and neither of them said a word. They were relieved that they finally found each other. They seemed to be the only two people left in the world, looking at each other and hearing their own strong heartbeats.Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
Albie couldn’t tell his feelings. He had been looking for Aurora for so many years and he’d been thinking of her all the time. Right now, she was standing right in front of him, stunned and deeply wronged. She looked like she was complaining or acting cute, which had softened his heart.
Aurora blinked her eyes and stared at him like crazy. It seemed that he hadn’t changed at all. He looked maturer, but he was still the one who had warmed her heart. Then she remembered the last conversation many years ago they had before he left.
“Aurora, will you wait for me to come back if I leave some day?”
“It depends on where you’re going and how long you’ll be gone. Will you come back?”
“Of course I’ll. You’re here, and I won’t leave you alone.”
Aurora snorted and said, “If you don’t come back, I’ll forget you easily…”
Many years later, Aurora had once complained and blamed him. She blamed him for eating his words. She blamed him for being so ruthless and leaving her alone for so long.
But he was standing in front of her again, though in such an unexpected way, but after all, they finally found each other.
The crowd fell into silence and began whispering again. The situation was kinda of confusing but it was quite obvious.
Aurora calmed herself a little, ran to him and threw herself into his arms. What if he disappeared again? She finally knew it wasn’t a dream when she lay in his arms.
“Albie, finally, you’re back!”
Hearing her sweet voice, Albie stroke her hair and sighed. His eyes were swelled with tears.
“Aurora, my baby girl. I’m here. I’m back. I won’t leave you again.”
Aurora listened to his familiar voice and burst into tears. She was bitter and happy, and held him tightly.
Bailey and Ariana looked at each other and had no idea what it was about. Aurora had an elder brother?
Nevaeh came over at the right time and stood next to Sion. Surprisingly, Aurora knew the CEO of T-SHINE. Were they real brother and sister? Or? Did Sion know anything about it? Thinking of it, she looked towards Sion.
Sion looked terribly gloomy and fixed his eyes on Albie and Aurora, who were cuddling, and he looked furious as if he was gonna blew his top any time. But, he clenched his fists so hard that the veils on his hand back seemed to burst out, looking like he couldn’t take it any more.
Sion stared at them and felt anger and sarcasm in his heart. His wife was hugging another man in the way two deep in love met again after a long time, which was too much for him to bear. He wouldn’t have brought Aurora to the wedding if he’d known things would go like this. Out of his expectation, the man who Aurora had been waiting for turned out to be Albie. And, he was back.
Ariana moved towards him and asked in a low voice, “What’s it about, Sion?”
Sion said nothing in response, fearing he would just vent out his anger once he opened his mouth. His handsome face was filled with gloominess and indifference. He wanted to step forward, but Nevaeh grabbed him by the arm, and that was how she had brought him to reason.
“Sion, Aurora and Mr. Doyle are brother and sister? But they don’t have the same family name…”
People around heard that and began whispering.
“What’s going on? I’ve never heard Mr. Doyle has a younger sister.”
“Maybe she’s his childhood sweetheart. Who knows!”
“It made sense. Young people today are fond of giving their dates pet names…”
Sion listened to the gossips and bit his lips harder.
The crowd kept staring at Aurora and Albie and gossiping. Not until then did Aurora realize they were the focus of all. Then she got rid of Albie’s arms immediately. She sniffed and whispered, “Oh God! They’re staring at us. Albie, why didn’t you tell me!”
“Sorry. My bad.” Albie smiled lightly, wiped the tears for her, and said softly. But he had been missing Aurora so much and wished to hug her for a longer time. He saw her eyes red with tears and flicked her nose tap, “You, little crybaby! You’re the same as before!”
“Why have you been away for so many years? Didn’t you know I’ve been waiting for you?” Aurora pouted and complained.
Saying it, she looked around and found everyone was looking at them. She was so embarrassed and lowered her head shyly. Holy shit! They had attracted all people’s attention. She must have been to excited to ignore that!
