Memories Of The Night 162 Chapter 162: Forgive My Improper Remarks

Previously warming towards Aaron after finding out the truth, Katrina suddenly flares up again at his rude words.

She was feeling a little guilty towards him just now, but it seems that she doesn't need to apologize for the misunderstanding after all.

He actually called Carl an old man! Even going far and saying that he isn't a good person!

No matter what, Carl is an elder. Aaron should show some respect!

Katrina glares at Aaron furiously. "Aaron, it's fine if you don't respect me. But you have no right to slander Uncle Anderson like this!"

Carl is not only Katrina's nurturing benefactor but also the person she respects the most these past several years.

Hearing Aaron's comment about Carl makes her angrier than hearing him comment about herself.

Previously in a good mood, Katrina begins to get angry again because of Aaron's words.

Aaron doesn't want to upset Katrina or get into trouble while having dinner with her. He chooses to compromise. "Forgive my improper remarks. Sit down and have a meal with me."

At Aaron's courtesy, Katrina takes the gla.s.s of water and returns to her seat.

As she takes a sip of water, she notices that Aaron is staring at the cup in her hand. Looking down, she sees another cup in front of her. She accidentally took Aaron's cup for herself.

Realizing the problem, Katrina has nowhere to escape under Aaron's gaze. She returns the cup to him awkwardly.

Gazing deeply at her, Aaron takes the cup and deliberately drinks from the spot she just drank from.

The playful look in his eyes is too obvious.

Katrina is still not accustomed to such things. She quickly grabs her knife and fork to bury herself in the food on her plate.

But she finds that the steak on her plate has already been cut into small pieces. While she was furiously begging Aaron to let her go, he was considerately cutting the steak for her.

Aaron is a disgusting person.

He is arrogant and supercilious, indifferent, and merciless. He is extremely ruthless. He never considers her feelings and always forces her to do things against her will. He keeps having s.e.x with her regardless of her protests.

Katrina obviously detests such a person.

But now…

When she was in danger, Aaron was the first person to save her. When she was bullied by someone, he avenged her in secret. When he saw that she had accepted someone else's flowers, he gave her a bigger and prettier bouquet.

While she was quarreling with him, he was cutting the steak for her.

Although Katrina is unwilling to admit it, Aaron's actions aren't so bad.

Her preconceived ideas about him make her want to avoid him. Because of this, she neglects his kindness for her.

Aaron said that he only has one woman.

Is he doing all this for her because he actually likes her?

The idea disappears as soon as it appears in Katrina's mind.

Aaron is such an excellent and superior man. She doesn't dare believe that he actually likes her. She will only embarra.s.s herself.

He is like a high mountain that no one can climb. She doesn't dare get too close, for fear that she will fall down and break into pieces one day.

Seeing Katrina staring blankly at the food, Aaron frowns. "What's wrong? Is it cold? I'll have the waiter to send a new one."

As Aaron prepares to call the waiter, Katrina snaps out of her daze and stops him quickly, "No."

Then she puts a piece of steak into her mouth.

The dinner is eventful and exhausting.

After dinner, Aaron drives Katrina home.

Although he almost made her cry during dinner, he is very glad that he took her out.

Fortunately, he was able to clear up the misunderstanding before it got worse. If he had approached her a few days later, she would have a.s.sumed that he had married someone else and has started a family with another woman.

By then, she would avoid him more seriously.

On the way back, Aaron watches the road carefully without saying a word, while Katrina sits next to him, lost in her thoughts.

The car slowly stops. Katrina looks up and finds that they have reached her apartment.

She never told him where she lives. How does he know where to stop?

After the initial surprise, Katrina quickly calms down.

Aaron knows about her workplace and her family. It's not surprising that he knows where she lives.

Katrina unbuckles the seat belt and turns to Aaron. "Aaron, thank you for bringing me back and for retaliating against Melvin for me. But I still want to make things clear with you. Although we have a past, we are now in Abbe City. I am not your girlfriend, your possession, or your pet. Please respect me."

Aaron frowns at Katrina's words.

Since they met, he decided that Katrina was his woman.

But now, she is saying that she is neither his girlfriend, his possession, nor his pet. She is anxious to cut ties between them.

Who is he to her?

Aaron looks at her calmly. "Katrina, are you blaming me for not pursuing you?"

According to William, a person having complete control of the other is not a relations.h.i.+p. Unless it's mutual, the relations.h.i.+p is a merely selfish pursuit. Only after getting Katrina's consent will their relations.h.i.+p be real.

But from the moment they met until now, Katrina has never officially responded to his affections. She has never explicitly promised to be his woman.

Only after he gets her acceptance can they be together.

Katrina blushes at Aaron's words. "No!"

She just wants him to keep a proper distance away from her. How could he twist her words and imply that she can't wait to be his girlfriend?

What a shameless and contradicting man!

Aaron grabs Katrina's hand and kisses her knuckles. "For you, I relocated my company to Abbe City. Think over my affections for you."

The sensation on her fingers is like a jolt of electricity. Katrina quickly s.n.a.t.c.hes her hand back at the touch.
