Arielle’s voice was music to Aaron’s ears, and it drew a smile across his face. The heaviness in his steps vanished.
Back then, Aaron brought virtual-novel.net here with the intention of marrying virtual-novel.net because virtual-novel.net thought virtual-novel.net was an interesting lady. Now, virtual-novel.net was attracted to virtual-novel.net because of the warmth virtual-novel.net exuded unknowingly, and that soothed his anxiety.
“Ari, can I stay with you? I feel so lonely staying on my own…” Aaron tried to get a hold of this newly found warmth by exposing his vulnerability.
“Hell no!” Without hesitation, Arielle rejected him.
She wasn’t going to let anyone come near her.
He mimicked Pat’s snoring, hoping for a say yes.
“Stop it. Stop behaving like Pat. You’re so childish.” Arielle gave virtual-novel.net a soft slap on his head.
“Ari, please, I beg you. Let me stay with you. You can imagine how lonely it feels to live alone in a huge mansion like mine, can’t you?” Aaron whined.
“You? Lonely? Where are your parents?” Arielle lifted virtual-novel.net brow.
“They don’t live together, and I don’t know with whom I should live.” Aaron’s head drooped when Arielle mentioned his parents.
Oh, poor thing.
From that, Arielle thought that Aaron’s parents had divorced and showed virtual-novel.net sympathy.
“You’re never gonna stay at my place, but you’re allowed to come and have a meal once in a while.” That was the most Arielle would allow.
“Okay!” Aaron was overjoyed but acted like virtual-novel.net was disheartened still.
He wasn’t planning to go to Arielle’s occasionally. He was determined to visit virtual-novel.net every day as virtual-novel.net loved the way virtual-novel.net family interacted. To him, that’s what home should be like.
Arielle thought the best thing that had happened to virtual-novel.net today was being able to talk to Vinson over the phone. Little did virtual-novel.net know that another pleasant surprise was waiting for virtual-novel.net at Paelsford Manor.
“Morrison? What are you doing here?” Aaron asked.
“I’m here to give Ms. Moore virtual-novel.net phone.” Morrison took out a box and handed it to Arielle. “Ms. Moore, the restrictions in the manor had been removed. You may contact anyone you like from now on.”
Morrison then passed virtual-novel.net a laptop that was placed on the table. “Also, this laptop is for you…”
Arielle took the phone and the laptop excitedly as that meant virtual-novel.net could finally talk to Vinson without the need to be discreet, and virtual-novel.net fell into a spur moment of bliss. Opposed to Arielle, Aaron couldn’t feel worse at the good news and pulled a long face.
Why did they remove the restrictions and gave virtual-novel.net a laptop and a phone? That means virtual-novel.net could call and chat with Vinson regularly, no?
“Young man, I’ll smack you in the face if you insisted on stopping me from contacting Vinson!” Arielle felt that Aaron might be up to something malicious and threatened him.
“Do whatever you like. Hmph!” Aaron spoke coldly.
No matter how often you two call each other, virtual-novel.net wouldn’t be able to get here, anyway. I’m content with just driving Vinson up the wall every time virtual-novel.net remembers that I’m the one by Arielle’s side now, virtual-novel.net thought.
“What a sweet young lad you are!” Arielle grinned at Aaron.
However, virtual-novel.net turned toward Morrison with a frown on virtual-novel.net face the very next second. “Don’t ever set restrictions on my devices again. You guys tricked me here and contorted my life-saving intentions into devious ambitions every time I tried to stand up for myself.”
Arielle was a doctor and would never put anyone’s life in jeopardy. She respected life and putting a wager on it was the last thing virtual-novel.net would do.
Morrison didn’t know how Aaron got Arielle back to the country and felt sorry for her. “My apologies for any inconvenience caused. I was just doing my job.”
“I’m not putting the blame on you anyway, but since I was invited here to share my medical knowledge, you should trust me a hundred percent and not cut me off from the outside world. Do you understand how worried my family would be if I’m nowhere to be found all of a sudden?”
