Chapter 977
No, she couldn't die.
Aurora grabbed the pills off the floor with trembling hands and stuffed some into her mouth and swallowed them, not caring how dirty the floor was.
The medicine slowly took effect.
She could feel her breath coming back to her. She laid back down on the bed and stared blankly at the ceiling.
"...I won't die. No matter what, I won't die. I'll live. Theo, I'll live till the day I get you. I can't allow you to be with that whore. She has a husband and a baby, and is still trying to seduce you. She's shameless!
"She wants to hurt you and seduce you at the same time. Why would you want a loose woman like her?
"Her mother is probably a cheap whore too, to give birth to such a promiscuous woman like her who has clandestine affairs with any man off the streets!"
Suddenly, someone knocked on the door.
"Mr. Spencer, you're back!"All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.
Aurora's eyes flew open and she heard footsteps approaching her.
Her heart leaped; she immediately pulled the straps of her gown down, revealing her fair shoulders and the gentle lines of her bosom. She laid down on the bed, her disheveled look making her resemble a ravaged flower. A piteous image indeed.
When Theodore entered the room, he saw pills scattered all over the floor and Aurora lying down on the bed.
Anxiety overlook him and he rushed toward the bed, pulling her into his arms and gently shaking her body.
"Aurora, wake up! Aurora!"
Theodore's eyes were filled with worry and anxiety. He was about to call someone to prepare the car to drive Aurora to the hospital when Aurora's eyes slowly opened.
"My Theo, you're back... You're finally back. It was terrible waiting for you for so long."
Aurora looked as though she and Theodore were star-crossed lovers, waiting in anguish for her long-lost lover.
"Yes, Aurora. I'm back. What happened to you? Do you feel unwell?
Did she have another heart attack?
Theodore glanced at the pills scattered on the floor.
"Did you take your medicine?" he asked.
"I did, but after that, my hands shook and the pills dropped all over the floor. I'm so sorry, I'm
so useless."
She tried her best to look as obedient as ever, which broke his heart.
Theodore heaved a sigh of relief upon hearing that she had taken her medicine.
"It's alright. It's not your fault. I'm the one to blame. I shouldn't have left you here alone."
Theo, I waited so long for you," Aurora said through her sobs as she lifted a hand and caressed his face. "You look so haggard. What exactly did you go through? Did you find her?"
Tears streamed down Aurora's face. She looked so beautiful, like an exquisite doll meant to be handled with care.
Theodore gently wiped the tears from Aurora's face and nodded. "Yes, I found her. She's very safe right now."
Aurora looked as though she felt relieved to hear that. "Yes, good that she's safe. I was hoping for her safety, too. If anything were to happen to her, you'd surely suffer too. I hope your ex-wife can live on well. Theo, as long as it's someone you care for, no matter who she is, I only wish that she would be safe and sound.
As long as that cheap whore lives on, she would stand a chance of taking revenge. Aurora wanted to give Rosalie a taste of the pain she experienced.
As she had expected, Rosalie was perfectly fine.
Aurora was sure that Rosalie deliberately went missing so that Theodore would go look for her. What a cunning woman!
Aurora's kind and understanding expression broke Theodore's heart.
