Chasing My Pregnant Wife

Chapter 869



A few days later, Sydney and Aurora sat opposite each other at a table in a restaurant.

The waiter approached their table with some menus in hand.

Aurora sat opposite Sydney, feeling very nervous.

The last time they contacted each other, Sydney was the one who reached out, telling her that something had happened to Theodore and asking her to go see him at the hospital.

Aurora was very anxious at that time and hurried to the hospital. At that time, she didn't see Sydney in person. They only talked over the phone.

She didn't expect Sydney to contact her again and ask her out one week later.

This was Aurora's first time being in such a high-class restaurant. She felt slightly nervous.

What made her more nervous was sitting opposite the mother of the man she loved.

Theodore's mother was beautiful, graceful in her every move. With such a beautiful mother, it was no wonder that he looked so handsome.

Sydney was a comforting testimony for Aurora that she might age as gracefully as Sydney did, looking dazzling even in her 40s or 50s. Sydney's beauty was refined by the passage of time, accentuated by an air of mature confidence.

Seeing Aurora's face, Sydney said, "Ms. Payne, feel free to order anything you like. My treat."

"Mrs. Harper, there's no need for that."

"Why not? I'd like to thank you for what you did before. I called you, and you immediately went to see Theodore. Of course I'd seize this chance to express my gratitude. How about this? If you're not picky, I can order for the both of us."

"Mrs. Harper, I'm not picky. Please go ahead and order for us. This menu is too fancy, I don't really understand the items on it."

"Alright, let me do the honors."

Sydney ordered some dishes before handing the menus back to the waiter.

After the waiter left, Sydney surveyed Aurora from head to toe, as if trying to figure something out.Content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

Under Sydney's close scrutiny, Aurora felt very uneasy. She lowered her head, feeling her cheeks flush. She started getting worried that Sydney might hate her.

Her imagination started running wild.

Sydney could sense that Aurora was very nervous. She smiled and said, "Don't be nervous. I called you here today just to have a meal with you, nothing else."

"Mrs. Harper, do you have anything you wish to say to me?" Aurora asked.

Would Sydney think that Aurora was trying to seduce her son, and warn Aurora to keep her distance from Theodore? Even threaten her, like characters in soap operas on television?

Aurora could sense that Sydney wasn't someone like that, but that didn't stop her from feeling antsy.

Aurora's anxious expression did

bear some resemblance to Rosalie. She looked very much like Rosalie when the latter was young and had just joined the Spencers. The fearful and shy look on her face made her look like a frightened little rabbit that somehow wandered to a strange and unfamiliar place.

"Don't worry. Even if I do have something to say to you, it wouldn't be anything upsetting. I won't scold you or tell you to keep your distance from my son. Otherwise, I wouldn't have called you to ask you to go see him," Sydney explained. Content

She tried to be as gentle with her words as possible, knowing what Aurora might feel worried.

Aurora heaved a sigh of relief at Sydney's words.

"Ms. Payne, may I call you Aurora? Do you mind that?" Sydney asked.

"I don't mind that," Aurora said. "Mrs. Harper, feel free to call me whatever you like."

"Alright, I'll call you Aurora then. I feel like we're strangers when I call you Ms. Payne. You look like you have a good relationship with Theo, too. Feel free to come visit us at our house next time."
