Chapter 176
After paying for the meal, we headed to the outlets and started our shopping spree.
"Arianna, what are you —" Monique froze before she could complete her sentence. Her fear was
evident on her face.
I looked in the direction of her gaze, and then I saw Aaron standing not too far away from us. He was
casually dressed. Visually speaking, he looked even more attractive than male celebrities.
He would have been flocked by women if it wasn't for the gorgeous looking woman standing beside
him.
I wondered what he was doing in Andoland?
My attention was then shifted to the woman beside him. She was wearing a long dress that defined her
thin waist. She looked gorgeous. They were holding hands, and a couple who both looked that good
really stood out.
It seemed to me that he was out on a casual date. Out of instinct, I turned my back on them, and I held
Monique's hand as I said, "Let's go back!"
Monique was no longer in the mood to continue shopping. She nodded and agreed with me, "Sure, let's
go!"
I thought Aaron didn't notice us, but soon after Monique and I decided to walk away, a tough-looking
man in black blocked our path.
The man was wearing sunglasses, and we couldn't read his expression. He stood in front of us and
said, "Mr. Reid is asking for you two."
"Arianna!" Monique sounded a little nervous as she clutched onto my hand tightly.
I gently patted her arm as I calmed her, "It's okay!" Then I looked at the man and said, "Sorry, it's
getting late. Tell Mr. Reid that we'll visit him some other time."
I was about to leave with Monique in hand, but he blocked our path again and said, "Miss Reid, Mr.
Reid did say if you are not willing to see him now, he can visit the both of you at night."
"Tell Aaron to not push us too far. He won't be having a good time either if he doesn't let us go,"
Monique suddenly raised her voice and yelled at the man with her arm still linked to mine.
The man replied emotionlessly, "Please come with me. Otherwise, I don't mind carrying you there."
"You-" Monique's face turned red.
I interrupted her and looked at the man in black, "Lead the way."
Aaron had always been stubborn, and I knew that about him. We shouldn't be asking for that upon
ourselves.
The man in black led us out of the mall. Instead of taking a car, he directly led us through the street and
entered a cafe.
We followed him up to the second floor, and he stopped in front of a private room. The man in black
stood at the room's entrance and gestured to us, "This way, please! Mr. Reid is in there."
Monique and I exchanged looks with each other before walking into the room. Different from the private
rooms in restaurants, a private room in the cafe was more elegant and artsy. Through the divider, we
could still hear other people's conversations clearly.
"Aaron, it's been a long time since you've come to Andoland to see me. I thought you've already
forgotten about me," It was a woman's voice. Although she sounded coquettish, it didn't sound
annoying.
Monique and I entered the room to see Aaron and a woman sitting on each side of the octagonal
sandalwood table.
The woman was wearing a slim-cut green dress, which highlighted her curves. She was elegantly
brewing tea at the table.
I was confused for a moment. Brewing tea in a cafe?
Rich people really knew how to enjoy themselves!
Upon seeing Monique and me, Aaron cocked his brows at us with an inexplicable expression. Then he
said to us, "It has been a while." Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.
Monique feared him. It was out of her instinct, but the anger and resentment she had towards him kept
her together. She glared at Aaron and asked, "What do you want from us?"
Aaron ignored her and fixed his eyes on me. He raised his eyebrows, "Want to have some tea
together?"
