Memories Of The Night 258 Chapter 258: She's Becoming Sweeter

Taking the coffee, Katrina is slightly confused when Randy points in the direction of Aaron's room. Oh, he wants me to bring Aaron coffee! She nods and makes her way to the study.

Wary of walking in on confidential business matters, she knocks and waits for Aaron to say, "Come in," before entering.

Aaron is sitting in front of his desk, listening to several old men give their reports on the laptop screen with a bored expression on his face. At the sight of Katrina entering with a cup of coffee, his blank face brightens up with a smile.

She's becoming sweeter and sweeter, even bringing me coffee like this. I really want to kiss her.

On the screen, Aaron's subordinates are taken aback by Aaron's smile.

Katrina walks over and places the cup on the desk. "Randy asked me to bring this to you. Don't work too hard and get some rest when you're done." She turns to leave, not wanting to disturb any longer.

Before Katrina can step away, Aaron suddenly reaches out and grabs her arm.

Katrina looks at him, puzzled. "Do you need anything?"

"Let's take a ten-minute break," Aaron announces and snaps his laptop shut.

The sight of Katrina, bringing him coffee reminds him of when they first met.

He had wanted to see what she would do in retaliation for putting her under house arrest, so he ordered her to bring him coffee.

She hadn't known it at the time, but he had seen her every action. She obviously hadn't wanted to, but she marched over with clenched fists and grudgingly made him a cup of coffee. The look on her face when she spat in it behind his back was pure satisfaction.

He had accepted the coffee as if nothing had happened, but he hadn't expected her kindness. To his complete surprise, she stopped him out of guilt just as he pretended to drink it.

Thinking about the past few days makes Aaron immensely happy. He loves her charm and kindness, even her deviousness and satisfaction when she's plotting against him. He loves everything about Katrina.

Aaron s.h.i.+fts his gaze from the coffee on the desk to the woman standing in front of him. He says in a low and teasing voice, "Why are you being so kind and bringing me coffee all of a sudden? Did you put something into it? "

Katrina instantly remembers spitting in his coffee when she was back in Hadley. She feels ashamed of herself whenever she thinks about it. I was so immature! I wish I could take it back…

Her cheeks flush in shame. I can't believe he still remembers that after such a long time! He's doubting my good intentions now because of that small mistake!

Katrina covers up her embarra.s.sment and snaps, "Yes, there's something in the coffee! Are you going to drink it or not?" She shakes her arm off as soon as she finishes talking and moves to escape.

But Aaron pulls her by the arm.

After a wave of dizziness, Katrina finds herself on Aaron's lap. When she tries to stand up, he secures an arm around her waist.

The compromising position makes Katrina nervous. "H-hey, Aaron… What are you doing?"

Katrina stares at Aaron in apprehension. I just bought him some coffee! Is he really going to punish me for something I did in the past?

Because he is holding her with his injured arm, she doesn't struggle too much for fear of hurting him. She has to stay in his arms, reluctantly.

Aaron uses his free hand to pick up the coffee cup and takes a sip. The familiar aroma of his usual coffee fills his nose. It's the perfect temperature, made just right for him.

Randy's playing matchmaker, he thinks in amus.e.m.e.nt.

Aaron turns to Katrina and grins. I know you only did that because you were mad. You won't do anything like that now. I just can't help teasing you.

Well, better not waste the opportunity Randy opened up for me.

Instead of swallowing the coffee in his mouth, Aaron takes Katrina's face in his hands and kisses her lips. While she is distracted with panic, he lets the coffee flow into her mouth.

After successfully kissing Katrina, Aaron releases her with a satisfied smile. "I don't mind if you put something in it. I'll share it with you."

Katrina is completely unprepared. Before she knows it, she tastes coffee in her mouth and reflexively swallows it in a single gulp. Then she feels Aaron's tongue sliding between her lips and licking the bitter taste from her mouth before he pulls away.

The touch jolts Katrina out of her daze. She shoves Aaron, and his face flushes red with anger. "You disgusting b.a.s.t.a.r.d!"

I was only joking! I didn't spit into his coffee! In her anger, she punches his injured shoulder. He winces in pain and loosens his hold on her, letting Katrina stand up and leave in a huff.

Aaron watches her retreating figure with a pleasing smile. Despite the fleeting kiss, he feels unspeakably satisfied.

After the 10-minute break, Aaron returns to his boring video conference with a smile.

When the video conference resumes, everyone immediately notices that their usually stoic boss is in a good mood.

Before Aaron had paused the call, they saw a woman bring him coffee. Whatever they did in those ten minutes seems to have changed Aaron into a completely different person.

Aaron has never shown interest in a woman before. Since they weren't able to see Katrina's face, they don't know who she is. But whoever she is, they know that she must be very important to him.

After leaving Aaron's study, Katrina breathes a sigh of relief before the anger starts to settle. b.a.s.t.a.r.d! Always taking advantage of me, was he a wolf in his past life?

She clutches her chest and feels her pounding heartbeat, her cheeks still flushed. Strange. She touches her lips in wonder. When he kissed me, my first reaction wasn't to pull away and hit him. I just froze and blushed.
