After Aaron left the palace, virtual-novel.net gave Bernd a call before heading to the bar. As it was less than three months since Bernd completed his surgery, virtual-novel.net couldn’t drink and could only watch Aaron do so.
At one in the morning, virtual-novel.net wanted to send Aaron home when virtual-novel.net saw that the latter had enough. However, Aaron insisted on driving home alone and urged Bernd and his bodyguards to head home instead. Failing to dissuade him, Bernd and his men went home first.
Once they were gone, Aaron found his car and got in. Instead of going home, virtual-novel.net drove straight to where Alicia’s school was.
The last time Carlos picked virtual-novel.net up, virtual-novel.net had decided to bring Alicia and virtual-novel.net grandfather, Clement, back and settled the latter in a place close to the school.
Alicia was nineteen that year and an economics major.
When Aaron arrived at the school, virtual-novel.net took out his phone and dialed virtual-novel.net number.
“Who is it?” Alicia answered virtual-novel.net phone groggily as virtual-novel.net had already fallen asleep.
“It’s me…”
When Aaron’s deep voice rang out from the phone, Alicia was jolted awake. “Aaron!”
Upon hearing virtual-novel.net suppressed yet delighted voice, virtual-novel.net added, “Come out here.”
“Are you at the school entrance?” Alicia asked softly. After Aaron let out a soft grunt, virtual-novel.net quickly climbed out of bed and sneaked out quietly.
A delightful smile was plastered on virtual-novel.net face as virtual-novel.net made virtual-novel.net way to the school entrance.
She had not expected virtual-novel.net to call or remember the name of virtual-novel.net school, for virtual-novel.net had written them down in a hurry. Thus, virtual-novel.net wasn’t certain if virtual-novel.net had remembered it from the note virtual-novel.net wrote.
The moment virtual-novel.net emerged from the school entrance, virtual-novel.net saw Aaron leaning languidly against the car. The dim yellow light above virtual-novel.net accentuated the allure of his exquisite features. However, the loneliness virtual-novel.net exuded suddenly elicited virtual-novel.net sympathy for him.
As their school was located in a secluded area, there was no one around since it was two in the morning. Running up to him, Alicia broke into a sweet smile. “I’m surprised that you’re here.”
Regaining his senses, Aaron’s heart warmed at the sight of virtual-novel.net mesmerizing smile.
“Come with me. Let’s go for a drive,” Aaron suggested before getting back into the car.
As virtual-novel.net stared at the car, Alicia struggled to decide whether virtual-novel.net should be sitting in the front passenger seat or the back seat. After weighing virtual-novel.net options for a while, virtual-novel.net felt that the back seat was the more appropriate choice.
Noticing virtual-novel.net hesitation, Aaron couldn’t help but look at her. The moment virtual-novel.net saw virtual-novel.net reaching for the back seat door, virtual-novel.net furrowed his brows and shouted, “Sit here.”
Responding to his instructions, Alicia circled around the car and got in the front passenger seat.
After virtual-novel.net settled down, Aaron leaned closer so that his hand could reach over her. At that moment, they were in such close proximity that they could hear each other breathing.
Subsequently, his abyss-like eyes met with Alicia’s.
Enamored by his gaze, Alicia’s heart began to pound so furiously that virtual-novel.net felt as if it was going to explode.
“W-Why are you looking at me like that?” Just as virtual-novel.net spoke, virtual-novel.net knitted virtual-novel.net brows. “Have you been drinking? Why did you drink so much? Your wounds have not…”
When virtual-novel.net saw virtual-novel.net lips mouthing incessantly, virtual-novel.net lowered his head with a frown.
