Chapter 626

When Jonathan burst into the room, Aurora froze for a split second.

"Jonathan, what are you doing here?"

Then a thought struck her. She turned sharply toward Sherman.

"Sherman, did you call my brother?"

Simone and Sellers would never gossip or tip Jonathan off. That left only Sherman, who had always been prejudiced against Stella.

Sherman avoided her gaze, shifting his eyes away.

"Aurora, something this serious-did you really think you could keep it from him? Besides, your hand is injured."

At the mention of Aurora's injury, Jonathan's expression finally changed. His eyes dropped to her hand.

"Aurora, what happened to you?"

Her left hand was wrapped neatly in white gauze.

Aurora's face was calm, almost dismissive.

"Jonathan, Sherman's just overreacting. It's nothing just a hairline fracture in my pinky finger. Really, I'm fine."

Jonathan knew Aurora's tendency to downplay her troubles. He glanced at Sherman for confirmation.
