“You have to tell me!” Brian was again blocking Lyn's path in the lobby of her apartment.
Lyn looked at Brian in annoyance. Brian had been bothering her the last few days. The man appeared everywhere, trying to pry into any secrets that Lyn might be hiding.
“I can have the police arrest you if you keep stalking and harassing me like this.”
“There's no need to be like that!” Brian sighed in frustration. “I just need an answer.”
“Didn't I already answer you? You keep asking why I seduced you that night. I already answered, maybe because I'm in the mood for sex, period! That's all my answer, but you still keep bothering me. What answer do you really want?”
“Because your answer is a lie!” Brian glared at Lyn. “Tell me the truth, Lyn, or I'll keep bothering you.”
“Fuck, okay!” Lyn half screamed, couldn't take it anymore. “I seduced you because A&
“Laurel.” Aaron gently grabbed Laurel's finger who was walking away. “Please listen to me first.”Laurel looked at Aaron angrily. “Why did you have to bring me into this situation, Aaron? She, the girl seemed to really hate me and seemed to want to get rid of me. She knows that we are married and on our honeymoon, but she still comes and doesn't care about me.”“I'll kick her out, right away. Meanwhile we must restrain ourselves.” Aaron grabbed Laurel's fingers and kissed them. “I hate her presence too, Laurel, hate it more than you, but Clarissa is a cruel woman. I'm afraid that if we're not careful, she'll do something bad to you.”Laurel sighed then took a deep breath. “Yes, Aaron, I'm sorry, maybe I'm too confused by all this.”“I should apologize for putting you in this kind of situation.” Aaron took Laurel in his arms. “We'll deal with her together, okay?&rdquo
“Now it's just the two of us.”Clarissa smiled seductively and plopped down on the soft sofa in the library, then crossed her legs defiantly.“Sit down, Aaron, it's strange that we're talking so far apart,” she invited him who had been standing while leaning on his desk at the end of the room.Aaron's face was cold, not responding to Clarissa's invitation. “Why are you here, Clare, what's your goal?”“Can I not? I miss you, Aaron, miss our times together.”“I'm married and now on my honeymoon. I think that's clear enough for you.”“Whether you're married or not doesn't really matter to me. I'm still willing to be your lover, where you vent your passion,” Clarissa's voice became hoarse and sensual, like an invitation to make love.Aaron narrowed his eyes. His handsome face hardened, holding back anger. “I don't need a lover because I'm already married. I alre
“Actually she was about to leave today, but she fell down the stairs and sprained it. Now she can only go after she can walk. I can't get rid of her now,” Aaron explained when Laurel joined in for breakfast in the dining room half an hour later. “My apologies, Laurel, for this deteriorating situation.”Laurel took a sip of her coffee and tried to smile at him. “It's okay, Aaron, it's very rude to kick a guest who is sick after all.”Aaron stared at Laurel sharply, as if to peel her heart away. “She won't bother you anymore. I told her that I love you and she can't expect anything from me.”And I love you too, Aaron, Laurel muttered to herself. Of course, she still did not dare say it, afraid of his reaction. Her chest felt tight and mixed, so she chose to keep it for now and reveal it later, when she was more certain._______________“I'm sorry I wasn't there this morning when you fell.
Laurel was pensive in her room, still confused about what Clarissa said earlier. The woman said that Aaron always imagined her when making love, always said her name. How could it be? Laurel didn't know Aaron before, did she? Was the Laurel that Aaron imagined was another Laurel? Laurel's heart felt like it was being squeezed. Could it be? Could it be that an impulsive marriage and all this hastily done because Aaron wanted a surrogate for the Laurel he loved? After all, with Laurel, Aaron does not have to bother as much as with Clarissa, because she has the same name. Therefore, Aaron did not need to explain anything and Laurel would not even know she was being used as a substitute. Laurel looked up as Aaron entered the room. He frowned when he saw Laurel sitting dreamily on the bed. “Dear, are you ok? I was waiting for you downstairs for lunch, but you didn't come down.” Laurel's answer was only a heavy sigh, confused whether she should ask
“So she fell down the stairs and sprained it, and then you didn't throw her out and instead took care of her?” Aamber almost screamed on the other end, causing Aaron slightly push his phone away. “Yes, she agreed to go and was about to pack up, when the accident happened.” “Sounds like intentional to me!” Aamber's tone was reproachful. “Are you sure she really went through that? Maybe she's just acting hurt.” “Her leg was really swollen and my doctor looked at her, so she really did have a sprain.” Aaron sighed. “Though I can't guess whether she dropped herself on purpose or not.” “Given Clarissa's nature, she might as well do.” Aamber looked worried. “Then what about you and Laurel?” Aaron smiled reminiscing when Laurel's name was mentioned. Laurel, his Laurel. The woman said she loved him so tenderly. Laurel loves him, for the sake of the angels! It felt like all his weight was lifted and his body became light. This is how it
They landed at the airport and were immediately picked up by Aaron's personal driver. It was midnight when they arrived at his house. The house is still the same, as beautiful as Laurel's memory used to when she first came here at the party, the party that resulted in an incident that led her and Aaron finally unite into marriage.Maybe now Laurel would be grateful for the incident, because now she found happiness with her husband. She suddenly remembered something and looked at Aaron seriously.“That night, the night after our wedding, was our first night. I know because it hurts.”Aaron smiled gently. “I also know because I have to break through a strong barrier before I can enter you.”Laurel's cheeks reddened at his casually vulgar words. “If that night is our first night, it means that at that time we didn't do anything here.”Aaron shrugged. “I don't remember, but maybe we just got drunk and fell asle
“Guests for you, Mr White.”Mrs Joy still calls him Mr White. No problem for him, Aaron smiled, turns out the name was not a problem for Laurel.“I heard you came back from your honeymoon, so I brought Sean here.” Mike stepped inside, as usual, without permission, and sat down on the large sofa in the room.A slender man, dressed in all black, followed in. His gaze scanned the entire room intently, until he met Aaron’s.Sean Bramasta, Aaron thought. This is their second meeting after a brief meeting at a party that time. He chose to come alone to Sean's party that time, and made Mike busy booing Aaaron. Mike briefly introduced him to Sean, but they could not talk more, because Aaron had left in a hurry for other business.“Sean just got back from his honeymoon too,” Mike mumbled as Aaron and Sean just stared at each other stiffly, watching each other.“Honeymoon? Aren't you married a l
“Alin’s baby is so cute and beautiful,” Laurel said as she prepared bath water in the big bathtub in their bathroom for Aaron who had just come home from work.“Oh yeah? You didn't forget to say hello from me to her, right?”Aaron took off his tie and slung his coat over the chair, then stepped into the large bathroom and leaned against the door. Laurel was checking the temperature of the water in the bathtub then took the white towels and folded them and placed them on the towel rack near the bath.“I already told her that. Alin congratulates us on our marriage.” Laurel stood up and looked at Aaron. “I was thinking of visiting Aunt Sarah. Yesterday we only had time to announce our marriage by telephone. She's already like my own mother, so it would be rude if we didn't see her soon.”“I'll drive you to the dorms this weekend to meet Aunt Sarah.” Aaron smiled, admiring his wife's beauty in
