"Aury, do you know who Dr. Shadow was in the past?" Linda asked in suspicion.
Aurora nodded. "Yeah, I do."
"Then, why are you still taking the pills she gave you? Aren't you worried that something might be wrong with them?" said Linda.
Of course, there was no way Aurora wouldn't be worried. However, she had no other choices. Other than Hera, no one else could save her child! So, she had to take the risk!
Since she had something Hera wanted, she figured the latter wouldn't dare to do anything to her. Aurora cleared the doubt she had in her mind and pretended to be confused.
"Why would she want to hurt me?"
Linda saw how innocent Aurora looked and wondered if the latter truly didn't know what she was implying. After all, Hera wasn't the same young lady from back then that could be seen through.
Instead, she was the amazing Dr. Shadow. If she wanted, any wealthy guy would gladly be used by her, and Nicholas was a great example.
If Hera decided to expose what happened 12 years ago, the Killians would have to suffer! Linda wondered if Aurora had other plans by boldly taking Hera's pills.
After pondering on it, she said calmly, "You're right. She has no reason to hurt you. I'm worrying too much."
Since Hera wasn't doing anything at the moment, she had no reason to be anxious. Instead, she should just calmly watch out for anything suspicious. Roman quietly watched from the side as Aurora and Linda chatted, and he had a feeling that there was a shameful history between them and Hera.
"With Dr. Shadow taking care of you herself, I'm sure you and Chad have nothing to worry about. I still have something to attend to, so I shan't disturb you further."
