Memories Of The Night 439 Chapter 439: I Don't Want To Bother Him

Jane hands over the soup to Annie.

Annie takes it and says, "Thank you, Aunt."

Jane smiles slightly, "The soup is a little hot. Be careful."

Edward is very gratified to see Jane and Annie living in such harmony.

He intends Annie to be his daughter-in-law.

His wife can take care of Annie so well that Annie won't feel any grievance when she marries his son.

Edward really feels that he has married a virtuous and gentle wife.

But thinking about Jane's relations.h.i.+p with Aaron...

Edward sighs in his heart.

No matter how good Jane is to Aaron, how enthusiastic Jane is...

Aaron has never been grateful to Jane and Duke, always hostile to them.

This also causes the contradiction and estrangement between Edward himself and Aaron.

They are all family members. Sometimes when Aaron says some mocking words coldly to Jane and Duke, Edward inevitably feels a little angry and will show partiality for them.

As time pa.s.ses…

The misunderstanding between Edward and Aaron is growing.

Actually Edward sometimes thinks about it calmly…

As a child, Aaron has a cold personality and a strong sense of self-esteem.

His mother died early. Suddenly, an unrelated woman comes in as his stepmother, and he will definitely reject this.

Now Edward is getting older, so his best hope is for family harmony.

Fortunately, Aaron's personality has changed a lot since he came back this time.

Edward smiles at Annie and says, "Annie, what's your plan for today? If you want to go out to have some fun, I'll ask Aaron and Duke to accompany you!"

Annie replies shyly, "Uncle. The season is changing so fast. When I came here, I didn't bring too many clothes. Today I want to go shopping and buy some clothes."

Hearing Annie's words, Edward immediately says, "Oh! Well, your aunt can go shopping with you!"

When it comes to shopping...

Certainly, women can have common topics. So it is better for Annie to go shopping with Jane.

However, Jane says, "I am getting old and have a different taste from a young girl like Annie. Maybe Duke can accompany Annie."

Jane specially creates an opportunity for Duke to get along with Annie.

Before Duke has time to respond…

Annie has already made a reply.

"Yesterday, I heard from Duke that the company has an important meeting in the morning, so I don't want to bother him. I'm wondering if Aaron can accompany me."

When she finishes, she bows her head shyly.

She has lived here for so long.

Everyone here is very enthusiastic about her, except Aaron.

But even though he always looks indifferent, she's still attracted to him.

Every day as long as she sees him, she will blush unconsciously, and her heart will beat faster.

Actually, Duke has accompanied her mostly whether she wants to go out to play or do something else.

But...

She's still eager to spend more time with Aaron.

So this time, she summons up the courage and puts forward her own request.

Hearing Annie's words, Edward agrees decisively, "Okay! Aaron, you accompany Annie to go shopping today. You must take good care of her. Understand?"

Actually, if Annie and Duke are together, Edward will be more a.s.sured.

Because Duke always knows how to take care of girls.

But if Annie is alone with Aaron...

Edward inevitably wants to give more advice.

Because Aaron is always not close to women, always indifferent. Edward is afraid that Annie will be upset if she stays with Aaron.

Shopping with a girl...

Aaron certainly wants to refuse.

But Edward has already decided. So Aaron can't refuse her directly.

For the sake of Edward, Aaron temporarily agrees.

"OK."

Annie is very pleased to hear that Aaron has agreed.

"Thank you, Aaron."

But now...

Sensitively aware of Annie's imperceptible smile, Jane is full of surprise and unwillingness.

Since she first met Annie...

She has been creating opportunities for her son to spend more time with Annie.

And Duke has been doing very well.

Any girl will be attracted by such a handsome and gentleman who cares about her every day.

But…

Now Annie offers to ask Aaron to go shopping with her.

Is there anything special in her mind about Aaron?

At that moment, Jane and Duke naturally feel nervous and uneasy.

Aaron is Edward's eldest son and the son of his first wife.

If Annie chooses Aaron, the inheritance right of the Wilson family will be Aaron's.

How can they be willing to hand over the inheritance of the Wilson family?

No way! They have to think of ways as soon as possible!

After breakfast...

Aaron drives to go shopping with Annie.

It's Annie's first time to stay alone with Aaron and her first time to take Aaron's car.

In the past, when she was with Duke, Duke always looked for various topics to talk to her.

But now...

Sitting in Aaron's car, there's only silence.

Aaron says nothing, just looking ahead and driving.

But even so...

Looking at his handsome side face secretly, Annie will blush and feel attracted to him.

In the twinkling of an eye, the car stops in the busiest business center.

Aaron parks the car and leads Annie to the mall.

Seeing Aaron's indifferent att.i.tude...

Annie feels embarra.s.sed to take his arm.

She intends to take this opportunity to be alone with him.

But they are more than three meters apart now. It's meaningless to go shopping like this.

Annie's plan comes to mind. Suddenly, her feet twist, and she behaves painfully. She screams.

Hearing that, Aaron turns around...

Annie squats down and rubs her wrists.

"What's wrong?"

This is the first sentence Aaron has said to her since they left home.

Annie looks at Aaron painfully and says, "I've just twisted my foot, carelessly."

Aaron immediately says, "I'll take you to the hospital!"

Aaron is going to help her, but Annie quickly waves her hand, "No need to go to the hospital! I can walk. It doesn't matter. It's just a little bit of pain. Aaron, can I grab your arm? It might be better."
