I will recover soon, perhaps in a week.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aurora did not smile back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She looked at him with troubled eyes but said nothing for a long moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then she lowered her gaze and whispered, \"I am sorry.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She did not explain why, but Spencer understood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was apologizing for doubting him, for the harsh words she had thrown at him, and for not realizing his pain sooner.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He shifted slightly and said in a gentle tone,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It is all right. I am the one who should apologize. I should not have let things reach a point where you were hurt too.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aurora’s lips curved into a fragile smile, but tears shimmered at the corners of her eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing her tears, Spencer’s expression turned anxious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why are you crying? What happened?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aurora shook her head and wiped her eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I do not know why it always feels like there are so many hurdles between us. I just missed you so much.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moment she spoke those words, her tears finally slipped free, sliding down her cheeks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Spencer looked away for a moment, his gaze fixed on the ceiling as he fought to keep his own emotions in check.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They had met after such a long time, yet the distance between them still remained.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He finally looked back at her, his voice calm, though it cracked slightly at the end.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Soon we will be together. It is just a matter of time.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aurora nodded and held his hand gently. \"I can wait for you,\" she said softly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He gave her a faint smile and squeezed her hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They talked quietly for a while, sharing small stories and simple words that carried warmth between them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gradually, Aurora began to feel drowsy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her body grew heavier as the fever crept further in.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Spencer noticed the flush on her cheeks and frowned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You are warm,\" he said suddenly. \"Are you running a fever?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aurora smiled weakly and shook her head. \"It is nothing. Just a slight fever.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Spencer’s expression grew serious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He immediately turned to Caleb and ordered, \"Call a doctor.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Caleb gave a small nod.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he stepped out to arrange for the doctor, he could not help but feel moved by what he had witnessed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Despite being unwell herself, Aurora had traveled all this way to see Spencer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their bond, in his eyes, was like something out of a storybook.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aurora leaned back slightly, trying to convince Spencer she was fine, but he refused to listen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When the doctor finally arrived, he examined her carefully and announced that she had caught a viral fever.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the doctor left, quiet returned to the bedroom.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Spencer turned his head toward Aurora.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His eyes, which had been gentle moments ago, now carried a sharp, almost scolding look.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why did you even come when you had a fever?\" he asked in a low but firm voice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Do you realize what could have happened if your fever got worse? You could have collapsed somewhere or been in real danger.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aurora’s brows drew together in a faint frown.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She looked at him with confusion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I came all this way... I travelled so much even though I was not feeling well, and yet the first thing you do is get angry at me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Spencer’s jaw tightened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He could see that she was not grasping the real issue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His voice rose a little.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You do not understand. I am angry because you did not think about what could have gone wrong. It was reckless.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aurora’s frown deepened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her lips pressed together as if she wanted to argue back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Spencer noticed it and was about to raise his voice further. But then he stopped himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He took a breath and looked at her again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The anger in his eyes softened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He realized that this was one of those rare times when they could end up fighting over their concern for each other.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He did not want to ruin the evening like that.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aurora, too, lowered her gaze. She understood that he was not wrong.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a small sigh, she said quietly, \"I know... I understand that you are worried about me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Spencer’s shoulders relaxed slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And I understand that you have sacrificed a lot just to be here.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aurora lifted her head a little and gave him a faint smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I was not sick before. I think I caught the fever after I got on the plane.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing that, Spencer nodded slowly. \"I see.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then Spencer moved his arm slightly, opening it as if to invite her closer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aurora did not hesitate. She leaned forward and rested against him, wrapping her arms around him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For a while, they stayed like that, saying nothing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The warmth of each other’s presence was enough. The evening passed in quiet peace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Later at night, when it was time for Aurora to leave, she stood near the door of the bedroom.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her steps were slow and reluctant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Spencer looked at her with the same reluctance in his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As she turned to go, he reached out and held her hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His grip was firm yet gentle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I know you came here in disguise this time,\" he said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But if you keep coming here like that, people will start noticing something unusual.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aurora gave a small laugh and waved her free hand lightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Do not worry. I have many disguises. I will manage on my own.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Spencer shook his head slightly, still not entirely at ease.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I will assign a few bodyguards to you. At least you will not be alone if something happens.\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1009,"2026-06-06T04:03:40.623Z",1,"novelbin.me","cf2e6c39ae0b2e7b2ecaeae545141d77991083c62cbc2f854fe5d27fac284210","born-into-villain-s-family-i-have-a-200-rebate-s-chapter-397","born-into-villain-s-family-i-have-a-200-rebate-s-chapter-395",614,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fborn-into-villain-s-family-i-have-a-200-rebate-s-cover.jpg"]
