The moment Alicia saw him, she beamed sweetly as she stepped forward to take his jacket from him and hang it on the hanger. Next, she took out a pair of slippers and placed them by his feet. At that very moment, she looked like a loving wife welcoming her husband back from work.
Under the soft glow from the dim light, Aaron started thinking. The young lady is busy serving me, delicious homecooked dishes... Unequivocally, these are what others define as infinite happiness, aren't they?
After their meal, Alicia snuggled into Aaron's arms. There was blissfulness amid satisfaction in the smile on her face.
Grabbing Aaron's warm palms, her lips curled up when she murmured, “Aaron, it's a blessing to have you by my side! How nice if I could have meals with you and lie in your arms every day. My happiness at these moments is beyond description.”
Aaron cast his head down to look at her and heaved a silent sigh. I might be able to grant her wish before this, but it's impossible now.
He could only grab the opportunity to accompany her for a few nights by staying over while the grand hall was still under renovation. After everything was ready, the palace would be his permanent residence.
Nonetheless, he did not mention a single word about that while gazing at the young lady in his arms, listening attentively to her as she described her ideal life. Fine, I would rather keep mum from her for the time being. At least, she can stay cheerful for a few more days.
After quite a while, there was still no response from Aaron. Thus, Alicia turned to lie on top of him before querying, “Aaron, do you feel happy when you’re together with me?
Narrowing his eyes, Aaron gazed at the young lady leaning close to him. She's getting more and more daring now and will snuggle up to me so intimately. Well, she treats me like her boyfriend now.
“Come on. Tell me. Do you feel happy by my side?” Alicia asked coquettishly, wrapping her arms around his waist. Pressing one side of her cheeks on his chest, she mumbled, “I want to make you happy, so there’ll at least be a spot for me in your heart.”
Even though she was in Aaron's arms at the moment, she could not help feeling a sense of indecipherable uncertainty. It was as though he might leave at any moment and would not appear in her life again. She was seized by fear and could not fathom why she had such a feeling.
Snippets of those moments they spent together flashed across his mind as he sensed the sheer anticipation in her muffled voice. Hence, he responded briefly with a soft hum. The next second, he emphasized earnestly in case she did not hear him, “Of course! I am happy!”
In actuality, Alicia only asked the question spontaneously without anticipating a reply from Aaron. After all, they were not an official couple.
Never had she expected that he would give her a reassuring reply. In an instant, tears trickled down from the sides of her eyes. Shortly after, the front part of his shirt was dampened by her tears.
Sensing that, Aaron stretched out his hands to scoop her up. Inevitably, his heart ached a bit as he caught sight of tears all over her face.
He stretched out his hand to wipe off' her tears as he asked in a low, charismatic voice, "Why re you crying?”
“Aaron, I love you so much. Don't leave me, okay? I promise that I'll never go against your wishes...” Alicia pleaded with Aaron, wrapping her hand around his neck tightly. When her tears dropped on his neck, he could feel the burning sensation scorching his frigid heart. Oh my! It never crosses my mind that she loves me so deeply. However, what’s so good about me? How do I deserve her love?
He felt like pushing her away, but he could not resist the warmth and homely feeling that she brought him.
“Okay!” he replied softly. Whipped up by his response, Alicia embraced him instantly, kissing him fervently. As her passion turned him on, he turned swiftly, placing her beneath him...
