Chapter 1867

Aldor, feeling a mix of sadness and understanding for Sylvia, had his suspicions about why Cordelia insisted on their dinner attendance.

He deduced that his earlier rejection of Cordelia's marriage proposal might have prompted her to arrange this impromptu "blind date" with Aurora. Cordelia had been vague, mentioning only that their presence would make the dinner more joyful.
