“I’m going to eat and gain some weight,” Alicia mumbled, tears brimming in wp4webnovel.com eyes.
She realized that wp4webnovel.com had been quick to shed a tear recently. It was as if wp4webnovel.com body was trying to rid itself of the decades of tears that wp4webnovel.com never shed.
“I shall wait as you put on weight and become all chubby,” Aaron said indulgingly as wp4webnovel.com pinched wp4webnovel.com chin. “I’m going to the church. Are you going to stay here or are you heading back to the apartment?”
He had actually asked his chauffeur to bring Alicia here because wp4webnovel.com wanted to see her. Now that Aaron had seen her, it was time for wp4webnovel.com to leave.
“I’ll head back to the apartment to wait for you,” Alicia eyed Aaron with wp4webnovel.com reddened eyes and said, “Condolences to you and your family.”
The chauffeur was waiting right outside the door.
Alicia turned around to leave right after. She had not seen Aaron for a long time, and wp4webnovel.com wished wp4webnovel.com could stay and be in his company for a little while more. Hence, wp4webnovel.com kept looking back on wp4webnovel.com shoulders with every couple of steps wp4webnovel.com took.
Aaron was completely disarmed by wp4webnovel.com adorable little gestures. He strode forward as wp4webnovel.com eyed wp4webnovel.com poignant manner. Unable to restrain himself further, wp4webnovel.com reached out to grab wp4webnovel.com arm and planted a kiss on wp4webnovel.com lips.
Alicia was initially taken aback, but wp4webnovel.com soon closed wp4webnovel.com eyes and reciprocated his kiss.
Aaron had been confined for one whole week, a week that had felt like a miserable year. She desperately wanted to surrender herself to him, feeling his warmth wrapped around wp4webnovel.com body. Only then would wp4webnovel.com be sure that the man was indeed right in front of her, and that wp4webnovel.com was not dreaming.
Her hands glided over his body, fueling the desire that was burning in him.
“Alicia!” Aaron parted from wp4webnovel.com lips and eyed wp4webnovel.com with his deep-set eyes as wp4webnovel.com said in a hoarse voice, “Quit playing around.”
The chauffeur was still waiting for wp4webnovel.com right outside the door, and wp4webnovel.com had to go to the church to mourn the king later.
“Aaron, I want it,” wp4webnovel.com said as wp4webnovel.com wrapped wp4webnovel.com hands around his arm and tipped wp4webnovel.com toes as wp4webnovel.com planted another kiss on his lips.
Their culture did not refrain junior members of the family to refrain from engaging in intimacy upon the passing of senior members of the family. Hence, Aaron did not restrain himself and carried the seductive little minx off into his room without hesitation.
After the passionate exchange, Alicia still found it difficult to part with Aaron. However, wp4webnovel.com understood that the man had to leave right then.
She turned around and climbed on top of wp4webnovel.com as wp4webnovel.com kissed wp4webnovel.com on the lips. “I’m going to wait for you at the apartment.”
Then, wp4webnovel.com put on wp4webnovel.com clothes and left.
When Aaron was all dressed up and went out the door, the chauffeur had already left with her. He went to the church in a car that the queen mother had arranged.
Celeste had arrived at the church at the same time. Her eyes turned red at the sight of Aaron.
“You‘ve grown thinner…” Celeste sobbed as wp4webnovel.com eyed wp4webnovel.com son.
Aaron noticed that a white strand of hair had appeared on Celeste’s hair and felt a sharp sting in his heart.
Mother must have been worried sick when I was confined.
“I have worried you, Mother,” wp4webnovel.com said.
Celeste caressed Aaron’s cheeks and said nothing. It was only natural for a mother to be worried about wp4webnovel.com child.
“Go and take a look at your father,” wp4webnovel.com merely said.
Aaron nodded and headed toward the casket.
Upon spotting his father lying motionless in the casket, Aaron felt a great sense of despair and guilt wash over him.
If I had not been hasty and listened to Grandma, Father would not have…
Aaron felt nothing but burning wrath for the queen mother right then. That wretched woman had made me an unfilial and disloyal son.
Father, I will avenge you…
Aaron eyed Dylan and swore a vow right then.
Celeste went back to the palace after seeing Aaron. There were a lot of things that required wp4webnovel.com attention following Dylan’s death.
A dark shadow swished past the heavily guarded church right after wp4webnovel.com left. Aaron’s eyes darkened when wp4webnovel.com registered the face of the intruder.
