Keegan went upstairs with his phone.
Left alone, Aldor asked Aurora, "Ms. Kane, what are your feelings toward me?"
Aurora was confused. "What are you talking about?" His question caught her off guard.Feelings between a man and a woman," he clarified.
Aurora, her cheeks reddening, denied, "Are you out of your mind? | have no feelings for you!"Inwardly, she wondered, ‘Does he think I'm interested in him just because I'm not fighting with him anymore?"Aldor, appearing relieved, advised, "Good. If Mrs. Kane Sr. asks, tell her the same.”
Aurora, puzzled, questioned, "What's this got to do with Grandma?"
Aldor explained, "Mrs. Kane Sr. is trying to set us up. Didn't you notice?"
Aurora, initially shocked, protested, "That's impossible!"novelbin
Aldor remained quiet and looked at her quietly.
Aurora calmed down and thought about when Cordelia asked her about what happened at work, she would sound moreenthusiastic when Aldor's name was mentioned.
Reflecting on Cordelia's praise for Aldor, Aurora realized the implicationsAurora did not think too much about it at first, but after hearing what Aldor said, she felt utterly shocked.
‘Grandma would never praise anyone easily unless it's someone she favored. She used to always say good things about Stella,who then became Keegan's wife, and now that she's doing the same to Aldor..."
With newfound clarity, she asserted, "We'll never be together. Don't overestimate yourself because Grandma likes you. You'renot in my league."
Aldor laughed inwardly, 'Does she see me as desperate?’“Rest assured, | have no such intentions,” Aldor replied sarcastically. "Make sure to clarify that with Mrs. Kane Sr."Aurora felt a mix of annoyance and indignation. ‘How dare he reject me? He's just a mere worker!"
"I'll make sure to turn her down. Just be careful what you say. I'd hate for anyone to know | was set up with someone like you,"she retorted.
Aldor's inner defiance grew, amused by her pride.
He couldn't resist teasing, "Really? Maybe | should experience what it's like to be with someone of your stature."
Aurora was caught off guard by his response.
“What are you planning to do?"
Aldor ignored her and walked right to the garden.
Aurora frowned and followed behind him.
Cordelia was chatting happily with Sylvia in the garden, where she took the opportunity to ask about Aldor's life growing up.
In fact, when Cordelia decided to match them up, she had already sent someone to conduct a thorough background check onAldor. The drawer next to her bed was filled with Aldor's information.
Sylvia was an honest person without any ulterior motives. She answered every one of Cordelia's questions truthfully. The thingsshe told Cordelia were almost identical to what Cordelia found out about Aldor with even more details.
When they talked about Aldor's love life, Sylvia could not help but sigh. "I did talk to him about it, but he always says that he's toobusy. Two of his relationships ended because he was too busy with work. But no matter how busy he is, he should still set hispriorities straight. Isn't starting a family the main purpose of making money? He just won't listen to me on this."
After Sylvia said those words, she suddenly realized that she was speaking to a family member of his son's boss, which was thereason why he was always so busy. She figured that Cordelia probably would not want to hear complaints about being toooccupied at work.
