The CEO’s Surrogate Wife

Chapter 737 Cruel

Aaron doesn’t know that Richard is outside the door. He is dejected, but he is more worried about Aileen right now.

“What’s wrong?” He tries to suppress his negative emotions as he talks.

Listening to his troubled voice, Aileen thinks that he must be very worried about her. But they can't be together again. Aileen feels that she is holding him up, and she has to let him go. He looks very worried and his expression is telling her that he cannot bear to be apart with her. Aileen feels anguish looking at him like that, but she has no other choice.

“I beg you, please stop caring about me, okay? It’s over, it’s over for us since long ago. No, we never had anything to do with each other since the beginning.” Aileen looks away and bites her lips as she says that, trying to fight the urge to ask him to stay.

She never knows that giving up on love can be so painful. But the shadow outside the door is pacing back and forth relentlessly as if it is warning her to severe their ties immediately. She cannot let Aaron stay here a minute longer.

But there is no reaction from Aaron.

Aileen is puzzled, how can he still stand next to her as if nothing has happened, even though she has said many harsh words to him? She glances at him out of the corner of her eyes. Her eyes meet with Aaron’s determined eyes. At that very moment, she feels like she is going to fall for him all over again. NôvelDrama.Org: text © owner.

She anxiously moves her gaze away and cannot bear to look at him any longer. She is afraid that she will lose control.

“Stop lying to yourself. I know that deep inside, you love me very much.” Aaron holds her hand firmly, “I am not going to leave you, no matter what you say to me. Because I know that you really like me, and

that’s enough for me.”

He sounds very resolved as if nothing she says can change his mind now. Every single word he says strikes right in the middle of her heart.

She wonders if he knows that he is pulling her heartstrings vigorously right now. She feels so touched that she wants to die. But she needs to calm her heart down and stop acting on emotions.

“You are thinking too much. Since when have I ever said that I like you?” Aileen takes a deep breath and grits her teeth as she says that.

Aaron’s body shivers strenuously. But he quickly regains his composure, “I know that you just don’t want to admit it right now, but you really do like me deep down.”

Aileen starts to snicker, “Do you know? This is the best joke I’ve ever heard. What makes you think I like you?”

“My intuition is never wrong, you don’t mean what you are saying right now. But I’m sure there’s a reason behind it, that’s why you are trying to drive me away urgently.” Aaron doesn’t seem like he plans to leave.

Aileen starts to feel very frustrated, she is in a very tough situation right now. She doesn’t want the situation to unfold this way, but she has no other choice.

“You can stay since you want to be here so much. I’ll take my leave instead.”

Aileen then gets off the bed with her barefoot, she doesn’t even bother to put on her shoes. As she walks towards the door, Aaron takes a long stride and pulls her arm, he yells panickily, “Where are you going?”

Aileen looks back at him coldly, she stares at him with her emotionless eyes and says, “Who do you think you are? You don’t have the right to know. Where I am going is none of your business.

Her voice is very indifferent and estranged.

“I have the right to know because I like you!” Aaron doesn’t even care about what Aileen is saying to him, instead, he suddenly confesses.

He holds her hand tightly, his words ring in her ears.

Aileen almost surrenders to his imposing presence, she has never seen him like this before. He is always carefree and cynical, but he is becoming more and more charismatic each day.

“Let go of me, you have no reason to care about me. It’s none of my business that you like me, I’m in love with someone else.” Aileen knows that it will hurt him, but this may be the only she can say to make him give up.

Aaron looks sorrowful and dejected, but his eyes are still determined.

“Are you saying that the person you are in love with is Richard?” Aaron’s hands are trembling because he never wants to hear Aileen says that. But he must hear it from her, otherwise, he will not believe it.

Aileen cannot do anything but to follow up to what he asks, “Yes, you’re right!”

“I’m not going to believe in what you are saying right now. You promised to elope with me.” There is still trust and faith in Aaron’s eyes.

Aileen can feel his love and sincerity more and more, he really does like her.

“Don’t blame me for what’s going to happen next, if you don’t let go of me right now.” Aileen snaps back into reality again after a while.

“Have you already forgotten what I’ve said to you just now? I told you that I will never let you go for as long as I live. I don’t care if you yell at me or if you hit me, I won’t let go no matter what. Just remember that I really love you, and that’s more than enough for me.” Aaron says to Aileen eagerly, he emphasizes and stresses on the words “I really love you”. Once again, his words tug at Aileen’s heartstrings earnestly.

Aileen cannot take it anymore.

“I beg you to not say anything anymore, I don’t want to listen to you spouting nonsense. You are holding me up, do you understand?” Aileen quickly realizes that she accidentally spills the truth. She immediately covers her mouth with her hand.

“What do you mean that I am holding you up?” Aaron thinks that there’s something fishy going on with what Aileen is saying.

“Well, you are bothering me every day. I feel that you are holding me up and wasting my time. So please take your leave and get out of my room.” Aileen glares at Aaron as she points to the door.

Aaron is suspicious of her words and he wants to walk towards the door. But Aileen catches on in time.

She cannot let Aaron meet Richard. She can only continue talking fiercely to him.

“I think I’m making myself clear enough. I hope that you will stop bothering me in the future,” she says cruelly, she understands that this is the only way to make him give up.
