Although Sharon Sterling was secretly ecstatic, her face only showed unease and trepidation.
Before long, Mrs. Sterling came out, supported by Nanny Vaughn. Following behind her were Timothy Sterling and a remarkably quiet Aurora Sterling.
When Sharon saw Aurora dressed so conventionally and following quietly behind Mrs. Sterling, she felt a pang of disappointment. Aurora wasn't acting as she'd predicted. She had expected Aurora to resentfully dress herself up like a flamingo, desperate to attract everyone's attention. But to her surprise, Aurora's attire was flawless. Sharon felt she had lost a perfect opportunity to put Aurora in her place.
Aurora saw the disappointment in Sharon's eyes clearly, and an imperceptible smile touched her lips.
'Sharon, disappointed already? Just you wait. There are things coming that will make you feel much worse. Being the young lady of the Sterling family isn't so easy.'
