“Actually she was about to leave today, but she fell down the stairs and sprained it. Now she can only go after she can walk. I can't get rid of her now,” Aaron explained when Laurel joined in for breakfast in the dining room half an hour later. “My apologies, Laurel, for this deteriorating situation.”Laurel took a sip of her coffee and tried to smile at him. “It's okay, Aaron, it's very rude to kick a guest who is sick after all.”Aaron stared at Laurel sharply, as if to peel her heart away. “She won't bother you anymore. I told her that I love you and she can't expect anything from me.”And I love you too, Aaron, Laurel muttered to herself. Of course, she still did not dare say it, afraid of his reaction. Her chest felt tight and mixed, so she chose to keep it for now and reveal it later, when she was more certain._______________“I'm sorry I wasn't there this morning when you fell.

Laurel was pensive in her room, still confused about what Clarissa said earlier. The woman said that Aaron always imagined her when making love, always said her name. How could it be? Laurel didn't know Aaron before, did she? Was the Laurel that Aaron imagined was another Laurel? Laurel's heart felt like it was being squeezed. Could it be? Could it be that an impulsive marriage and all this hastily done because Aaron wanted a surrogate for the Laurel he loved? After all, with Laurel, Aaron does not have to bother as much as with Clarissa, because she has the same name. Therefore, Aaron did not need to explain anything and Laurel would not even know she was being used as a substitute. Laurel looked up as Aaron entered the room. He frowned when he saw Laurel sitting dreamily on the bed. “Dear, are you ok? I was waiting for you downstairs for lunch, but you didn't come down.” Laurel's answer was only a heavy sigh, confused whether she should ask

“So she fell down the stairs and sprained it, and then you didn't throw her out and instead took care of her?” Aamber almost screamed on the other end, causing Aaron slightly push his phone away. “Yes, she agreed to go and was about to pack up, when the accident happened.” “Sounds like intentional to me!” Aamber's tone was reproachful. “Are you sure she really went through that? Maybe she's just acting hurt.” “Her leg was really swollen and my doctor looked at her, so she really did have a sprain.” Aaron sighed. “Though I can't guess whether she dropped herself on purpose or not.” “Given Clarissa's nature, she might as well do.” Aamber looked worried. “Then what about you and Laurel?” Aaron smiled reminiscing when Laurel's name was mentioned. Laurel, his Laurel. The woman said she loved him so tenderly. Laurel loves him, for the sake of the angels! It felt like all his weight was lifted and his body became light. This is how it

They landed at the airport and were immediately picked up by Aaron's personal driver. It was midnight when they arrived at his house. The house is still the same, as beautiful as Laurel's memory used to when she first came here at the party, the party that resulted in an incident that led her and Aaron finally unite into marriage.Maybe now Laurel would be grateful for the incident, because now she found happiness with her husband. She suddenly remembered something and looked at Aaron seriously.“That night, the night after our wedding, was our first night. I know because it hurts.”Aaron smiled gently. “I also know because I have to break through a strong barrier before I can enter you.”Laurel's cheeks reddened at his casually vulgar words. “If that night is our first night, it means that at that time we didn't do anything here.”Aaron shrugged. “I don't remember, but maybe we just got drunk and fell asle

“Guests for you, Mr White.”Mrs Joy still calls him Mr White. No problem for him, Aaron smiled, turns out the name was not a problem for Laurel.“I heard you came back from your honeymoon, so I brought Sean here.” Mike stepped inside, as usual, without permission, and sat down on the large sofa in the room.A slender man, dressed in all black, followed in. His gaze scanned the entire room intently, until he met Aaron’s.Sean Bramasta, Aaron thought. This is their second meeting after a brief meeting at a party that time. He chose to come alone to Sean's party that time, and made Mike busy booing Aaaron. Mike briefly introduced him to Sean, but they could not talk more, because Aaron had left in a hurry for other business.“Sean just got back from his honeymoon too,” Mike mumbled as Aaron and Sean just stared at each other stiffly, watching each other.“Honeymoon? Aren't you married a l

“Alin’s baby is so cute and beautiful,” Laurel said as she prepared bath water in the big bathtub in their bathroom for Aaron who had just come home from work.“Oh yeah? You didn't forget to say hello from me to her, right?”Aaron took off his tie and slung his coat over the chair, then stepped into the large bathroom and leaned against the door. Laurel was checking the temperature of the water in the bathtub then took the white towels and folded them and placed them on the towel rack near the bath.“I already told her that. Alin congratulates us on our marriage.” Laurel stood up and looked at Aaron. “I was thinking of visiting Aunt Sarah. Yesterday we only had time to announce our marriage by telephone. She's already like my own mother, so it would be rude if we didn't see her soon.”“I'll drive you to the dorms this weekend to meet Aunt Sarah.” Aaron smiled, admiring his wife's beauty in

Brian watched Aaron's house from a distance. He knew that every day Aaron went to work and Laurel was at home with the servants. He could not just walk into Aaron's house. The servants might have been Aaron's spies and immediately reported that Brian had come there. Aaron could just go straight home and thwart all his plans. Brian had to act carefully. He had to lead Laurel out of the house and meet her, where they would not be disturbed, where she could freely reveal all of Aaron's rotten secrets. After that, Laurel would definitely hate Aaron a lot.

Brian's words made Laurel gasp in surprise, her face turning pale. "What the hell are you saying?" "I'm not talking nonsense, Laurel, I have proof." Brian pulled the files out of his bag. “You must have some questions, why did you get into Aaron's company so easily, why did he marry you so easily. It's all for a reason: he is the same person whose car crashed into your father's car and killed him ten years ago.” "What?" Laurel had actually been able to digest all of Brian's words. Her mind had concluded from what the man had said. Nevertheless, her heart screamed, refusing to believe it just like that. “You remember the person who bumped into your father was also named Aaron, a son of a rich businessman who got away with it simply because they had a lot of money, right?” Brian bombarded Laurel with all the information. “The Aaron you married is the same Aaron, the rich kid who got drunk and was speeding, then ran a red light and hit your innocent fath

Aaron drove his way home, determined. He carried a bunch of roses and a box of expensive chocolates wrapped in golden paper and with a red ribbon. Tonight he would confess to Laurel. He would confess, and then leave all decisions in Laurel's hands. He would explain it as clearly as possible so that she would not misunderstand and come to the wrong conclusion. He will make sure that everything he does stems from guilt, which then develops into love. In the end, she would appreciate his honesty, Aaron was sure of it. Aaron clings to that belief.

Aaron trotted out of Laurel's room, trying to deaf ear to the pounding on the door and her screams. He walked into his study, sat there with all the emotions running through his head. Laurel's hurtful words rang in his ears. The statement that she hated him, hated him so much. Just like ten years ago, Laurel would always hate him in the end. In frustration, Aaron hit the wall of his study with all his might, hurting his knuckles, but he did not care. The man then fell to the ground and cried. This was the second time that Aaron Silverwhite had cried... and the cause was the same: Laurel. ____________________ Aaron did not really want to leave the house.
