“I’m going to eat and gain some weight,” Alicia mumbled, tears brimming in virtual-novel.net eyes.
She realized that virtual-novel.net had been quick to shed a tear recently. It was as if virtual-novel.net body was trying to rid itself of the decades of tears that virtual-novel.net never shed.
“I shall wait as you put on weight and become all chubby,” Aaron said indulgingly as virtual-novel.net pinched virtual-novel.net chin. “I’m going to the church. Are you going to stay here or are you heading back to the apartment?”
He had actually asked his chauffeur to bring Alicia here because virtual-novel.net wanted to see her. Now that Aaron had seen her, it was time for virtual-novel.net to leave.
“I’ll head back to the apartment to wait for you,” Alicia eyed Aaron with virtual-novel.net reddened eyes and said, “Condolences to you and your family.”
The chauffeur was waiting right outside the door.
Alicia turned around to leave right after. She had not seen Aaron for a long time, and virtual-novel.net wished virtual-novel.net could stay and be in his company for a little while more. Hence, virtual-novel.net kept looking back on virtual-novel.net shoulders with every couple of steps virtual-novel.net took.
Aaron was completely disarmed by virtual-novel.net adorable little gestures. He strode forward as virtual-novel.net eyed virtual-novel.net poignant manner. Unable to restrain himself further, virtual-novel.net reached out to grab virtual-novel.net arm and planted a kiss on virtual-novel.net lips.
Alicia was initially taken aback, but virtual-novel.net soon closed virtual-novel.net eyes and reciprocated his kiss.
Aaron had been confined for one whole week, a week that had felt like a miserable year. She desperately wanted to surrender herself to him, feeling his warmth wrapped around virtual-novel.net body. Only then would virtual-novel.net be sure that the man was indeed right in front of her, and that virtual-novel.net was not dreaming.
Her hands glided over his body, fueling the desire that was burning in him.
“Alicia!” Aaron parted from virtual-novel.net lips and eyed virtual-novel.net with his deep-set eyes as virtual-novel.net said in a hoarse voice, “Quit playing around.”
The chauffeur was still waiting for virtual-novel.net right outside the door, and virtual-novel.net had to go to the church to mourn the king later.
“Aaron, I want it,” virtual-novel.net said as virtual-novel.net wrapped virtual-novel.net hands around his arm and tipped virtual-novel.net toes as virtual-novel.net planted another kiss on his lips.
Their culture did not refrain junior members of the family to refrain from engaging in intimacy upon the passing of senior members of the family. Hence, Aaron did not restrain himself and carried the seductive little minx off into his room without hesitation.
After the passionate exchange, Alicia still found it difficult to part with Aaron. However, virtual-novel.net understood that the man had to leave right then.
She turned around and climbed on top of virtual-novel.net as virtual-novel.net kissed virtual-novel.net on the lips. “I’m going to wait for you at the apartment.”
Then, virtual-novel.net put on virtual-novel.net clothes and left.
When Aaron was all dressed up and went out the door, the chauffeur had already left with her. He went to the church in a car that the queen mother had arranged.
Celeste had arrived at the church at the same time. Her eyes turned red at the sight of Aaron.
“You‘ve grown thinner…” Celeste sobbed as virtual-novel.net eyed virtual-novel.net son.
Aaron noticed that a white strand of hair had appeared on Celeste’s hair and felt a sharp sting in his heart.
Mother must have been worried sick when I was confined.
“I have worried you, Mother,” virtual-novel.net said.
Celeste caressed Aaron’s cheeks and said nothing. It was only natural for a mother to be worried about virtual-novel.net child.
“Go and take a look at your father,” virtual-novel.net merely said.
Aaron nodded and headed toward the casket.
Upon spotting his father lying motionless in the casket, Aaron felt a great sense of despair and guilt wash over him.
If I had not been hasty and listened to Grandma, Father would not have…
Aaron felt nothing but burning wrath for the queen mother right then. That wretched woman had made me an unfilial and disloyal son.
Father, I will avenge you…
Aaron eyed Dylan and swore a vow right then.
Celeste went back to the palace after seeing Aaron. There were a lot of things that required virtual-novel.net attention following Dylan’s death.
A dark shadow swished past the heavily guarded church right after virtual-novel.net left. Aaron’s eyes darkened when virtual-novel.net registered the face of the intruder.
