Lifelong Companion novel Chapter 40

Surprised, Melissa stepped forward and said, "Mr. Aaron? What are you doing here? "

Was he here to ask something about the takeout? It happened that Melissa was also confused about this matter. At this time, his arrival saved her a lot of work.

Without answering Melissa's question, Aaron pointed to the passenger seat and said slowly, "Get in the car."

But it didn't mean that Melissa had the same thought as Aaron.

Melissa quickly leaned her head in, and then pressed her hand against the car window of Aaron. She said urgently, "Wait, Mr. Aaron, I have something to tell you. Why didn't you provide the workers in the construction site with takeout? Should they suffer just because I have a conflict with you?"

Frowning, Aaron rolled up the car window a little, so Melissa's neck was stuck.Then Aaron said coldly, "Get in the car."

Aaron didn't like to repeat a word for several times to others, including Melissa.

Seeing that Aaron was running from the question, Melissa got furious. She slapped the window hard and yelled loud, "Aaron! Answer my question! You shouldn't be one of those people who seek their own profit in public affairs. Tell me why! Hum..."

Before she could finish her words, Melissa felt her neck tightened.

She opened her eyes wider, only to find that it was Aaron who had rolled up the car window. With a little bit of force, her head was locked in the gap.

She was almost suffocated to death. Melissa stomped her feet and demanded, "Let me go! Aaron! Let me go! You hurt me! "

Seeing Melissa suffering a lot, Aaron didn't show any pity for her. He slightly stepped on the gas and the car moved a few steps forward slowly.

Seeing her white skin turned red, then purple, Aaron stopped his action and rolled down the car window. "Melissa, don't forget your current identity. The whole planning department is nothing but a stunt. I can end it at any time if I want. "

Her neck survived. Melissa drew her neck back in horror. Catching her breath in an awkward manner, Melissa gently rubbed her bruised neck and then quietly sat down in the passenger seat without saying a word.

Glancing at Melissa who was still frightened, Aaron didn't feel guilty for what he had done to her. Instead, he fastened the safety belt, stepped on the gas and said, "Accompany me to a dinner party."

Though the wind was blowing behind ears, Melissa could hear each word of Aaron clearly. It was like a magic spell, constantly circling in her mind.

Melissa lowered her head and chose to be silent.

Even if she didn't want to go, perhaps Aaron wouldn't allow her to refuse?

He was just stating a fact, not asking for her opinion.

The car moved quickly on the road. The dim light drew the shadows of the car long. Melissa's heart sank into the boundless darkness.

They had driven for a long time. Just when Melissa was about to fall asleep, Aaron suddenly stepped on the emergency brake. While Melissa hit her head hard on the car window.

"Hiss..."

Melissa covered her forehead with her hand subconsciously. Then she cried out in pain.

"Get off the car."

"Oh..."

Melissa pouted and followed Aaron at once. It was at this time that she got the chance to look around carefully.

Although the place was a little remote, the scenery there was quite good.

The place was supposed to be dark. Yet when they arrived, the lanterns were lit up one by one. It wasn't as dull as usual. There was a little more peace.

Melissa looked far away and felt her heart beating fast inexplicably while staring at those lights. But Aaron said they were going to a dinner party. Then why did they come here?

As if being aware of her puzzlement, Aaron took Melissa in his arms directly. He dragged her forward bossily and whispered, "Don't say anything later. Just keep silent. When you see someone you know, pretend not to see them. "

"What? Aaron... I don't know what's going on now. "

But Melissa's reaction was directly ignored by Aaron. They went to the hallway and met a large group of people.

"Mr. Aaron, happy birthday!"

"Mr. Aaron, we are so happy that you can come here today. We have prepared everything. Please come in! "

"Yes. I didn't expect to see you here... I thought you would go back to the villa. "

"Hurry up!"

The people around him would show their flattering smile. They voluntarily walked up to Aaron and invited him to walk inside. Melissa couldn't fully understand the situation after a brief uproar, but she at least understood one thing that today was the birthday of Aaron.

But didn't he just say a dinner party?

Melissa looked at Aaron with a confuses look, but then the expression froze in her face.

There was not a trace of joy on his face, but a touch of sorrow that Melissa could not understand.

"Aaron..."

"You shouldn't have said anything that you weren't supposed to say."

After leaving the sentence, Aaron rushed in as if he was afraid of being seen through.

Melissa giggled in a low voice. Her original sullen mood became better due to the conversation.

If she didn't feel wrong, could Aaron be avoiding something? The more people wanted to conceal something, the more curious others became. Without doubt, Melissa was such a person.

Turning the corner of her mouth up, Melissa walked up to Aaron and said, "You are really a contradictory person. I won't blame you. It's normal for everyone to have their own secrets! "

Inside the house, it was surrounded by some exquisite decorations. Yet today, the leading person was sitting quietly at the corner alone without saying anything. Nobody knew what he was thinking about.

Sitting next to him actively, Melissa touched her chin with her left hand. Then she stared at Aaron and asked, "What's wrong? Why do you look unhappy? Besides, Aaron, didn't you just say that you would take me to a dinner party? Do you really mean this?"

Melissa didn't think Aaron would be such a boring person. Judging from his character, he wouldn't have hold such a festive party. What's more, if she remembered correctly, Aaron was celebrating his birthday when she was sold to him, wasn't it? Can a person celebrate birthday twice within a year?
