Seeing no way out, Aurora Sterling could only brace herself and accept the soup bowl. Fighting back her aversion to the medicinal smell, she took a sip of the soup.
The moment she took that first sip, Aurora Sterling's stomach began to churn violently. An overwhelming wave of nausea instantly washed over her.
Aurora Sterling forced herself to endure it and, under Yvonne Vaughn's watchful eyes, took a second sip.
Finally, she couldn't suppress the intense revulsion any longer. Without another word, she abruptly set the bowl on the table, bolted from the study, and ran to the bathroom in the room she shared with Damien Valerius.
"What..." Yvonne Vaughn was stunned. She couldn't understand why Aurora Sterling was having such a strong reaction. She had drunk some of the soup herself, and there was nothing wrong with it.
With his brow deeply furrowed, Damien Valerius followed her.
