Lifelong Companion

Chapter 41 Loneliness

Glancing at Melissa, Aaron seemed to be a little unhappy that she talked so much.

After a short pause, Aaron reached out his hand and greeted the waiter.

After getting two bottles of champagne, Aaron opened a bottle for himself and slowly filled his glass

with it. Then he looked up at Melissa and said, "Don't ask me too many questions. How much can you

drink?"

"Today is your birthday. If you drink too much, would you..."

"Wordy! Indecisive!"

Aaron interrupted Melissa impatiently. Then Aaron started to drink without paying attention to Melissa.

Watching the movement and frequency of Aaron, Melissa trembled with fear. Aaron didn’t seem to be

drinking, but simply risking his life.

"I say..."

"Shut up."

The atmosphere was odd. Melissa could only watch Aaron hurting his body.

Instead of waiting like this, Melissa chose to take actions.

She stood up and waved to the waiter. Then she asked voluntarily, "Are you sure it's okay? Can you

bring me a hot towel and warm water? If possible, please bring me a hangover cure by the way. I'm

afraid that he can't bear this after a while. "

"Okay. I'll go get it for you right now. Wait for a moment! "

The waiter promised readily and acted surprisingly quickly.

It only took the waiter one minute to bring Melissa all the things she needed.

She thanked the waiter meekly and then turned to Aaron.

Melissa reached out and grabbed the ears of Aaron. Taking advantage of his drunkenness, Melissa

began to take her little revenge.

Although Melissa was a little unhappy, she didn't stop the movements of her hands.

While wiping the face of Aaron, Melissa said in a low voice, "You ordinarily tease me. It’s all right now. I

am the only person being with you when you are in a coma."

However, there was one thing that she didn't know. How could a person who could drink so much as

Aaron, be in a coma after drinking a bottle of champagne?

Hearing Melissa's reproachful words, Aaron felt that there was a trace of warmth in his lonely heart.

"Here he is. Come on. Mr. Aaron should have already eaten. Hey, who are you? Hurry up. Quickly let

go of your dirty hands. What could you do if you make Mr. Aaron dirty?"

A large group of ladies scurried towards Aaron, and then they stood in front Melissa, making fun of her.

Dirty?

Melissa was stunned a little and then she followed their gazes to see herself.

Melissa would not know it if she didn't see herself, but after looking at herself, she was startled.

The face of Melissa went red in an instant.

If they hadn't reminded her, Melissa forgot that she had been working on the construction site all the

time before getting in the car. How could she be clean in a construction site? There was dust and mud

everywhere in the construction site. Her originally neat clothes were stained with various colors.

The thought Aaron being super neat made the hairs all over the body of Melissa stand on end. If Aaron

was sober, the consequence would be unimaginable!

Melissa startled and hastened to lift Aaron up.

"What? He's so heavy..."

"I told you to let Mr. Aaron go. She was so humble that she wouldn't miss such an opportunity. I tell you

that today is a special day, so don’t make trouble. You'd better be quiet, and put him on the sofa! Don't

think about crossing the line. "

The woman criticized Melissa right in the face , making she quite embarrassed.

When Melissa was about to explain, she heard the sound of high heels suddenly.

Gina raised her head high and glared at Melissa. Then she said in a sarcastic tone, "Oh, it's you! A

thief. How dare you come here now? How could you be so shameless? You stole my purse in order to

approach my man. Now you are even at the birthday party, which was prepared by aunt for Aaron. Are

you going to ruin it?"

Nobody knew how much Gina wanted to rush forward and tear off the hypocritical face of Melissa so

that everyone would see how poor and inferior Melissa was!

Facing her criticism, Melissa didn't show any dissatisfaction. Instead, she forcefully pushed away Aaron

who was clinging to her and said, "I didn't. You misunderstood me. Miss Gina, I really don't have that

kind of feeling for Mr. Aaron. He is drunk. If it’s convenient for you, could you please support him? I am

not able to do that."

Was it her illusion? Melissa felt that Aaron was heavier than before and she could hardly breathe.

With a snort of contempt, Gina rolled up her dress a little and crouched down. She grabbed the arm of

Aaron and emphasized, "Of course I could. Aaron is my fiance. I hope you can understand that. Don't

do too many shameful things, Melissa! I warn you for the last time. Next time, I don't mind exposing

what happened between you and Aaron to the public! At that time, you will be too ashamed to exist in

this world. "

However, when Gina was about to put forth all her strength, Aaron, who was supposed to be sleeping,

suddenly opened his eyes. The shadow in his eyes strangely startled Gina.

Gina retreated several steps, but failed to keep her balance. Thus, she fell to the ground awkwardly,

which made many rich ladies around her laugh lightly.

With an awkward smile, Gina quickly got up from the ground and said as if nothing had happened,

"Aaron... Are you awake? I was worried about you just now. Since you are fine, it would be the best.

Aunt is looking for you. She asked me to take you there. "

Aaron stood up slowly and stretched out his hand to pull Melissa. The fake smile on Gina's face

disappeared the moment she saw them holding each other's hands.

Aaron gave Melissa a kiss on her lips. And then he unbuttoned his shirt to cover it on Melissa. "There is

no need for you, an outsider, to interfere in the things between Melissa and me. I came here just to take

back my things. Besides, Gina, I have never admitted our engagement."

Outsider? Did she hear it right? How could Aaron say that she, Gina was an outsider?

The tears rolled down, and the arrogant and domineering Gina was sobbing like a broken glass doll in

an instant, "Aaron... What's wrong with you? How could I be an outsider! Look at me carefully! I'm

Gina. Grandpa has already agreed, how can you take back your words? Besides, we had sex that

night, how could you... "

Gina loved Aaron so much, but Aaron turned a blind eye to her deep love.

Being impatient, Aaron simply ignored her.

Aaron forcefully put his arm around the shoulder of Melissa. Then he strode forward and said to

Melissa, "Let's go. You must be very tired after personally instructing in the site for such a long time

today. Let's get this done as soon as possible and then we will go straight home. "

Brows frowned, Melissa then said okay and walked forward coordinately.

Only Melissa knew how hard Aaron pinched her shoulder!

Aaron didn't loosen his grip on the shoulder of Melissa until he reached a corner. Then he leaned

against the wall. It was at this time that Melissa felt something called loneliness from Aaron for the first

time.

Reaching out her hand slowly and patting the shoulder of Aaron, Melissa began, "Aaron... Are you Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

okay? "

She never thought that a man who was always powerful in all aspects would have shown such

exquisite eyes.

"What?"

"Don't move. I just want to hug you. I won't do anything to you. If possible, you'd better shut up. "

As Melissa was stunned, Aaron directly pulled Melissa into his arms and rested his chin on her

shoulder. He gently rubbed his chin. And nobody knew what he was thinking.

Melissa pouted and didn't say anything. After hesitating for a while, Melissa patted him on the back,

trying to give him some warmth.

As Melissa felt her hand was about to sore, Aaron held her even tighter. "My mother came here today

to settle the marriage between Gina and me." He said.

‘Marriage?’

Being surprised, but Melissa didn't speak. Because Aaron seemed to have more to say!

Sure enough, about a minute later, Aaron said again, "That woman is not my biological mother. My

mother was murdered because of a woman framed by me... And she was forced to kill herself

indirectly."

His words were profound and indirect,which made Melissa feel dizzy.

Looking at her muddled appearance, Aaron gradually softened his attitude and said, "Listen to me,

Melissa. I know everything you want to know. That's right. I was the one who did something to the

takeout that you wanted. I will give you one more chance. If you can get what I want tonight, I will grant

some funds to continue your project. If you can't... "

Before Aaron could finish his words, Melissa said confidently, "What is it? Tell me. As long as it doesn't

go against morality, I, Melissa will do what I say! "

Aaron took a look at Melissa appreciatively. Then he leaned forward a little and whispered to her ears.

On the other side, Gina stood aside and witnessed all this silently. She gritted her teeth and turned

around to walk towards the mother of Aaron, so that she could start complaining.

After a few tears had been hastily squeezed out, tearful Gina grabbed the mother of Aaron and said,

"Aunt, that bitch has drawn the heart of Aaron away from me. He won't listen to me no matter what I

say. Sometimes, he did something bad to me. But I don't blame him. I know it's all that woman's fault!

Aunt, please uphold justice for me. You know, I have always been fond of Aaron. And it will be better

for our two families to unite by marriage. Don't you think so?"
