The President’s Stubborn Love

Chapter 129 – The Taste of Heartache



The knot in Aaron’s throat rolled and complex emotions tumbled in those eyes that looked at her.

As if deliberating something, the look was indistinguishable, and Sherry simply stopped looking at him and looked down at the wounds on her legs and stomach.

The wounds are small and dense, but they are in very inconspicuous places, not scarring, but painful and itchy.

Sherry’s eyes were heavy with hate, and she would pay Nola back for these wounds.

And it was returned as is!

Sherry’s silence made it impossible for Aaron not to care, and he stepped in front of her, “I’ll write it out and you watch.”

He took out his phone and wrote down a few words.

Sherry didn’t say anything either until he handed her the phone which read, “Monica is fine and has been picked up and returned to Swift Family, do you remember, what happened then?”

Sherry blinked and shook her head.

For a brief moment, she thought through several things.

For one thing Aaron doesn’t seem to know that Nola has her in a sanatorium, much less that the Garcia Family intends to hurt Monica, and that she’s likely the only witness he’ll have on his hands in the whole affair.

Therefore, she could not speak easily.

“Can’t think of anything at all?” He was anxious, his brow locked and he looked so worried.

Sherry looked at him for a moment before asking in a muffled voice, “Monica’s not scared, is she?”

Aaron’s mind suddenly went back to when Sherry was covered in blood, but still clinging to Monica.

His pupils trembled slightly as he rejoined, “She’s just stunned, not as badly hurt as you are.”

Finished, then realized she couldn’t hear.

It was written over on the phone and added at the end, “You get well.”

Somehow Sherry just could feel from those five simple words that he seemed to care about her.

How ironic, how ridiculous.

He didn’t even look at her when she was being tortured by him, and now Aaron has a conscience because she’s defending Monica to the death?

Or did he also know that she was now the only pawn that could help him get back at those people.

Sherry hung her head, lost in her own thoughts, and now recognized that with the Garcia Family backing Nola up, she could survive with a thick skin, even after making such a big fool of herself and losing the trust of her partners.

Scandal, betrayal are not enough, what can be the Garcia Family’s weakness?

Sherry looked down in thought, completely oblivious to the presence of another person beside her, and her appearance fell into Aaron’s eyes, causing him to misunderstand that Sherry looked so helpless and pitiful because she was in distress and her wounds were sore.

For the first time, he felt the word heartache.

Unlike worrying about Monica, it is not a brother’s feelings for his sister, but a man’s feelings of anger because some woman has been hurt.

He couldn’t wait to go to the Garcia Family and demand an explanation.

Whatever the cost, he had to take it out on Sherry, but he didn’t act so irrationally after all, and Nola had the support of the Henry Family in addition to the Garcia Family.

Any decision he makes affects both Monica and Sherry.

Aaron left the room and looked down the long, ghostly corridor in front of him, suddenly thinking of how he had stepped on the blood of the corridor with every step he had taken when he had carried Sherry out last night.

Sherry slept for three days and three nights at Swift Family.

Whatever she did, she was served, and instead of the disgusted look she used to get from the Swift Family, they were careful to make sure that all the meals were brought down and remade as soon as Sherry said they were not good.

Sherry felt as if she had been dreaming.Exclusive © material by Nô(/v)elDrama.Org.

“Sherry, you see …”

Sherry hung her head, a little bored by the way she was addressed.

But now the whole Swift Family, including Aaron, thought she couldn’t hear the sound, so she couldn’t make any visible expressions.

Halfway through the maid’s sentence, she also remembered that Sherry couldn’t hear her.

Just simply shut up.

Occasionally, however, Sherry would overhear some of their whispered comments.

It’s all to do with the Garcia Family and the Henry Family, especially after the scandal at Nola and Aaron’s engagement party, where the gifts from the Garcia Family piled up in mountains, but were invariably thrown out the door by Aaron.

In other words, all the things Nola had said that day, strutting around in front of her, were false.

Sherry couldn’t help but snort lightly.

The smile fell just in time to catch the eyes of the man in the distance.

He moved over and a hand, suddenly, landed on Sherry’s shoulder.

Sherry feigned panic and looked up, her fawn-like eyes brimming with innocence; she was now the victim, and however she reacted, it made sense.

Seeing her react so violently, Aaron jerked his hand back.

“I’m sorry.”

His eyes were full of guilt.

Even crouched down slowly in front of Sherry, lowering her posture and taking the trouble to communicate with her with pen and paper.

These were just his tactics to get words out of her, and Sherry remained silent as she looked at the hair on top of his head.

“Haven’t you thought of it yet?”

Aaron is surprisingly patient.

Sherry, however, just shook her head faintly and returned to him in a hoarse voice, “No.”

The man’s gaze fell on her face for a long time before he finally rose slowly.

There was the sound of another man’s footsteps behind him.

Sherry didn’t turn around because she ‘couldn’t hear’.

And anyone who can follow Aaron in and out of Swift Family at this time of year is bound to be someone he trusts.

The man’s voice rang out and Sherry was slightly startled, but responded that he was Wilson Albert, one of Aaron’s few friends and heir to the Seymour Consortium.

A bright as a jade gentleman, highly educated and affectionate, just past the legal age to marry the fiancée assigned to him by his family, not as old as Aaron and with children already in kindergarten.

It was also one of the things that Sherry couldn’t figure out how he could become close friends with Aaron.

Because their two auras are completely at odds and Seymour Consortium is in the furniture business, which is completely at odds with Night Group’s line of business.

But he is one of the few guests who have free access to the Swift Family.

“She’s still …,” Wilson gestured as if he was afraid Sherry might hear.

Aaron hummed indifferently, the outline of his handsome face extraordinarily cold in the sunlight.

“Then something will have to be done, there, it won’t be long before all evidence is erased.” Wilson paused in his tone and looked at Sherry again, “And you can’t keep her forever, you’ll have to send her away when she’s healed.”

He is totally on Aaron’s side and is thinking of Aaron.

“You’ve just backed out of your marriage to the Garcia Family, and with this mess, the Henry Family, they’ll be clinging on to this, and if you keep tangling with Sherry, I’m afraid there will be problems with the Night Group shares.”
