Damien Valerius politely stood up and pulled out the guest of honor's chair for Timothy Sterling.
Timothy Sterling sat down hesitantly, his eyes never leaving Aurora Sterling.
Seeing her somewhat pale complexion, he asked with concern, "Aurora, are you feeling unwell?"
Hearing Timothy Sterling's question, Yvonne Vaughn felt a twinge of guilt. After all, her tonic soup had made Aurora throw up for two straight days.
"I'm fine," Aurora Sterling replied faintly. She realized that having not seen Timothy Sterling for so long, their relationship seemed to have grown a little stiff now that they were meeting again.
Timothy Sterling nodded. The last time he and Aurora had spoken was about Jameson Valerius's 74th birthday celebration. He had received an invitation from Bell to attend the banquet, but Aurora had flatly refused to let him go.
He hadn't gone to the banquet, and a part of him had resented Aurora for it.
