Sweet Addiction novel Chapter 185

Aaron closed his eyes, unwilling to recall what would happen in the future.

In fact, his mother didn't want to tell him these things. It was his mother's good friend who told him after his mother died. In his childhood, Owen did not appear. It was not until they moved back to A City that his mother miraculously met Owen again...

"Let me have a look."

When Aaron opened his eyes, he found that Sara was standing in front of him.

Sara looked at the forehead of Aaron and frowned. It was really serious. It was swollen, and his fresh short hair could not cover his wound at all.

"It must be very painful. Wait a minute."

Aaron didn't say anything. He watched Sara walk away for a few minutes and come back with a small emergency box and a bag. When she approached, Aaron found that the bag was full of ice.

Sara gently put the ice pack on his forehead. When she saw him frown, she sighed, "When you said you wouldn't come back, I was worried that your father couldn't find you and would be angry. When you said you were back, I was also worried that you would quarrel with your father all the time. Why do you always worry me? Just ignore what your father said, okay? Why are you arguing with him?"

Aaron didn't move. His neck followed Sara's movement, but he didn't say anything.

Seeing his response, Sara frowned and continued, "He hasn't been in good health these days. What if he gets sick because of anger? Can you afford it?"

When Aaron heard about Owen's illness, he finally reacted. He rolled his eyes and sighed in his heart. No matter what Owen did, he was his father. No matter what Owen did that made him disgusted, as a son, he couldn't be unfilial.

Aaron looked up at Sara and asked in a low voice, "How is my father?"

"The doctor said that he had a bad heart recently. Maybe he was a little anxious for the company's general shareholder's meeting and had a lot of things to deal with."

"What is he worried about?" Aaron frowned.

Putting down the ice pack, Sara looked at Aaron and said, "There are a lot of things to worry about. Although you and Earl are both in the company, it is well known that you don't get along well with each other. Therefore, some shareholders are worried that your relationship will affect the company's development, but... Obviously, it's just an excuse. They just want to take the opportunity to take control of the LR Group."

Hearing this, Aaron couldn't help but sneer, "Humph!" Although he didn't get along well with Earl, who else could be the top leader except the two of them if it was about the LR Group's sovereignty.

"So your father is not in a good mood recently, and you happened to be not in the company. You are still nowhere to be seen at this situation. How can he not be angry?" Sara looked at Aaron with complaint.

Aaron lowered his eyes and did not feel guilty.

In Aaron's opinion, Owen didn't need to worry about the company's affairs at all.

Those people were like contemptible scoundrels. Just let them do whatever they wanted and they would gradually stop.

Seeing that Aaron didn't care about it, Sara knew what he was thinking. She stared at him and said, "Don't think too simply about it. Can't your father think of what you can think of?! The LR Group has been peaceful all these years, so everyone has forgotten the desire of people. No one will be willing to be trampled on forever, so those people have long been quietly trying to win people over."

Hearing this, Aaron raised his eyebrows with interest. It turned out that those people were not so boring.

"So, don't make your father angry these days. And you needed to communicate with Earl. In front of outsiders, family should always be united."

"Okay." Aaron answered absentmindedly. He picked up the mirror next to him and looked at his forehead. He was a little annoyed, and there was a bruise on his forehead. It was obvious that he couldn't cover it. When he went back, Irene saw it, so he wanted to find a reason...

While Ada was whistling to make the cake, she suddenly heard a crisp sound of the wind bell on the door, followed by a sweet shout, "Aunt Ada!"

Ada was surprised. She turned around and found it was indeed Barrie.

Barrie threw himself into Ada's arms and rubbed against Ada affectionately. He couldn't hide his excitement. He looked at Ada with two big eyes and said coquettishly, "Aunt Ada, I miss you so much."

"I miss you too." Ada smiled and touched Barrie with her nose. Then she looked up at Mack, who was standing behind Barrie, and said with a smile, "Didn't you go to work today? Why are you here at this time?"

"Today is weekend." Although Mack said so, his eyes were still full of tenderness.

Seeing Ada's expression, he guessed that the trip should be very happy.

He came to the cake shop on the first day Ada left, but he didn't see her. He hesitated for a while and didn't ask the shop assistant where she was. After all, he had no stand.

But in the next two days, he pretended to come by and found that Ada still didn't come, and she didn't go to her new home either. Barrie also talked about Ada every day, so he couldn't help but find an excuse to ask the shop assistant where Ada was.

He didn't feel relieved until he knew that she was traveling.

On the way home, he felt that if he really cared about her, he would be in a mess. The cake shop was still here, and where could she go.

Ada put Barrie on the chair and turned to get Barrie the toasted bread.

Sitting next to Barrie, Mack looked at Ada's busy back and couldn't help asking, "I heard that you went on a trip? How was it? Did you have a good time?"

Ada put the bread and cakes on the table. When it came to travel, her face was full of sweetness. "It's good. We went to the seaside. The scenery is very good. You can go there if you have time, but... It's also important who can travel with you." She even blinked her eyes when she said the last sentence.

Mack knew what Ada meant and forced a smile. There were two underlying meanings in this sentence. One was to suggest that the person who went with her was very important, and the other was... Ada didn't like Mack at all and even encouraged Mack to find a girlfriend.

Although Mack had already practiced the skill of camouflage, he still felt that he needed to practice.

The bitterness in Mack's heart was almost revealed from his expression, and he could only hide it by lowering his head.

He was right. Ada did have this intention. She always thought that it was good for Mack and Barrie to find a good woman.

Although he was responsible for Barrie, his feeling for Barrie was different from his mother's. There was a distinct difference between father's love and mother's love.
