Rebirth After Being Betrayed by My Husband (Lily and Ryan)

Being Betrayed 215



Finished

When Aurora arrived at the company, she stepped out of her car, only to notice Parker getting out of his car at the exact same moment. Her heart skipped a beat. A wave of nervousness washed over her as memories of the previous night replayed in her mind-every word, every action.

Her face flushed a deep shade of red, and she instinctively wanted to avoid him. I'll just pretend I didn't see him and head straight inside, she thought, hastening her steps toward the entrance.

But her plan was foiled when she caught sight of Parker waving at her, a bright smile lighting up his face. Aurora froze in place, her feet refusing to move.

Meanwhile, Parker was in high spirits. He had left Aurora's house that morning with a grin he couldn't wipe away. Before heading to the office, he made a stop at the hospital to drop off samples of his and Auroraze's hair for a DNA test.

Though he didn't need a piece of paper to confirm what he already knew in his heart-that Auroraze was his son-the test was for the inevitable doubters who might question their bond once his relationship with Aurora became public knowledge.

After finishing his errand, Parker was eager to get to the company. All he could think about was spending the day with Aurora. The sight of her stepping out of her car at the same time as him felt serendipitous. This isn't just coincidence-this is fate, he mused, a sense of excitement bubbling within him.

As he got out of his car, his eyes never left her. He wanted to run to her, pull her into his arms, and never let go. Now that he knew she felt the same way, the mere thought of being apart from her seemed unbearable.

With a quick wave, he fastened his steps toward her. His heart was full of hope that she remembered last night, though he knew it was unlikely-alcohol had a way of erasing the finer details.

"Good morning, Aurora," he greeted warmly as he reached her.

Aurora returned his smile, trying her best to act normal. Her heart raced so loudly

in her chest that she worried he might hear it.

Together, they walked toward the elevator, both wrapped up in their own thoughts.

Parker was debating whether he should bring up what had happened the night before, unsure of how much she remembered. Meanwhile, Aurora felt the weight of the silence pressing on her. Being alone in the elevator with him felt entirely different now. Before, it was just Parker, her boss. But now, knowing he loved her, the air between them seemed charged.

As they stepped inside the elevator, Parker broke the silence. "You were pretty drunk last night. Are you feeling okay this morning?"

"I'm fine," Aurora replied with a small nod, her voice steady despite her inner turmoil.

"Thank you for dropping me off at home last night," she continued, glancing at him briefly before lowering her gaze. "And thank you for keeping Auroraze company. He doesn't usually warm up to people easily, but he really adores you."noveldrama

Parker's heart swelled at her words. Her gratitude felt genuine, but more than that, knowing that Auroraze liked him made him feel like he was slowly becoming

a part of their world-a world he desperately wanted to belong to.

As the elevator ascended Parker smiled warmly his thoughts drifting to Auroraze "Hmm

Auroraze is my

son. Of course, he'll love me," he said with a hint of pride in his voice.

Aurora nodded instinctively, but both of them quickly realized the weight of his words. They froze, glancing at each other in awkward silence,

Parker, scratching the back of his neck nervously, tried to clarify, "I-I mean, Auroraze is such a male dress, Who wouldn't adore him? He feels like my own

son."

Aurora looked down at her feet, her thoughts spinning. Did he mean that? Was he hinting at something deeper?

The idea of Parker considering Auroraze as his son made her heart flutter. She couldn't help but smile at the thought of what that could mean-was he imagining a future where they were a family?

Interrupting her reverie, Parker asked, "Umm... Aurora, do you remember anything from yesterday?" His voice carried a tinge of nervousness, making Aurora glance up,

A playful impulse sparked within her. Suppressing a grin, she shook her head with an innocent expression "Did something happen?" she asked, feigning ignorance.

Parker nodded, his mouth opening as if to spill everything. But then he hesitated. No, not here, he thought The elevator isn't the place for this.

He wanted his confession to be perfect. Aurora had endured so much in her life, raising Auroraze and facing countless challenges alone. She deserved a moment that would be unforgettable, a declaration of love that would make her feel cherished.

Finally, he shook his head, backing away from his earlier intent. "Nothing happened," he said softly.

"Okay," Aurora replied, though she frowned slightly. Why didn't he say something? she wondered. This was the perfect chance! Or... does he want me to confess first?

"I hope I didn't do anything embarrassing while I was drunk," Aurora said after a moment, trying to gauge his reaction.

Parker's lips twitched as he held back a laugh. He remembered every adorable, embarrassing thing she did, but he chose to play along. "Don't worry. You were sleeping peacefully," he assured her.

"Really?" Aurora asked, raising a skeptical eyebrow.

Parker nodded. "Why? Do you remember something?"

Aurora shook her head, though a part of her was tempted to tease him further.

Before the conversation could continue, the elevator doors slid open. They stepped out and w Parker's office, where they were scheduled to work on her next song with Lily.

Aurora trailed behind him, watching his confident stride. A mischievous grin spread across her face. If he's not ready to confess yet, I'll just have to keep teasing him until he does, she thought, her resolve strengthening.

When they reached his office, Parker opened the door and stopped in his tracks. His expression turned from calm to utterly dumbfounded.

Sitting in his chair, exuding an air of authority and irritation, was someone Parker clearly hadn't expected.

Fear flickered in his eyes as he hesitated at the doorway, reluctant to step inside. He could tell this person was in no mood for pleasantries.

"What the heck are you doing here?" Parker asked cautiously, his voice low but tinged with dread.

The tension in the air thickened as the figure in the chair turned slightly, their sharp gaze locking onto

Parker.
