It feels like cheating
A flood of memories from three years ago washed over me , and I felt as if an invisible hand had seized
my soul and thrown it back into the dark depths of the ocean from which I had barely managed to get
out .
No !

All that was left of Aaron in my mind was a dull ache of pain and sadness , but I had decided to move
on .
As my soul returned to my body , I instinctively turned around , ready to do
my exhaust
“ Stop ! Aaron ‘s voice echoed from behind me .
In the next instant , a powerful grip seized my wrist . The force was so great that he could n’t take
another step .
“ Ouch ! You are hurting me ! I cried out in pain , struggling to shake off my
grab
The force was all too familiar . He was dominant and inflexible .
Her hand floated in the air as she looked down . I could n’t read her expression from her, nor did I care
to try .
“ I have nothing to do with Aaron anymore ! I muttered to myself , trying to stifle the urge to flee in
humiliation .
I didn’t need to run .
After all , she was now Adenauer Colston ‘s girlfriend , and this was his office .

With that thought in mind , I straightened my spine and puffed out my chest before returning to the
office and taking a seat on the sofa against the wall , directly across from him .
Why are you in Germany ? Aaron raised his eyes slightly and asked me in his trademark deep , husky
voice .
“ I’m working here . Is there a problem ? I replied , trying to sound calm as my heart raced .
Why did Aaron suddenly appear in Germany ? Did he know that he was now working with TWH ? What
was he doing here ? How did you meet Adenauer ?
Questions swirled through my mind , but I forced myself to stay calm .
I secretly studied the familiar but strange man before me .
He was still wearing faded jeans and the same ck sweatshirt he had on when we first met . Her style
of hers had attracted me even then . Only that she seemed to have lost a lot of weightpared to her
three years ago . The sweatshirt dwarfed his body, and I could even see the outline of her corbones .
As I looked at him , his piercing blue eyes met mine .
I quickly looked away in panic .
Aaron chuckled , the sound low and joyless . He was so anxious that he could n’t capture and interpret
any hint of any of his movements from him.
Had he caught me ogling him ? Would that send you the wrong message ?
I had decided to get away from him . It could no longer affect me .
Just as he was about to exin , heughed again . “ This is too strange . I ca n’t believe Vincent quit
his cushy job on Wall Street for you . ”
This time I could feel the bitter mockery in his tone .
What an asshole !
He always knew how to reopen the tender wounds of my heart .
Vincent’s wedding had really been an ident , and I had walked away from him a long time ago . Still
, she had been so desperate to exin to Aaron three
years ago
But he had n’t given me a chance to . Instead , he had paraded around with a rich woman , proiming
that she was his fiancée . His.
It took me three full years to recover from the pain , but he brought up the past with ease .
Yes , he had always been terrible like that .
I swallowed my anger and fought to appear calm . After all , I hadn’t
I had the opportunity to exin three years ago .
Now this was my chance .
“ It has nothing to do with him . I came to Germany alone . and you ? What brings you here ? ”
“ Me ? His tone of hers oozed arrogance . “ I can go wherever I want . I am the second son in the
Morris family and CEO of a major publicpany .
anyway ”
” Can you talk like a normal human ? ” His antagonistic attitude towards him really made me sick . “ Do
you think being rich means you can do whatever you want , even y with people ‘s feelings ? ”
Unwilling to put up with more insensitive words , I changed the subject .
“ How did you and Adenauer meet ? ”
“ Adenauer ? Aaron raised an eyebrow and asked , ” Are they close to each other ? ” ”
He leaned forward , resting his hands on the desk , looming over me . I felt a wave of oppression and
disgust radiating from him .
For a moment , I thought he was jealous . On second thought , I felt that the idea was really ridiculous .
This yboy nevercked for femalepany . he was engaged , no
less In the three years since we broke up , he had n’t contacted me once , so how could he be jealous
of me ?
His annoyance was simply a disy of possessiveness .
Men have always been like this . Although our rtionship was history , I probably belonged to him in
some subconscious corner of his mind . His.
The thought infuriated me .
Strangely , Iughed instead of losing my temper . I straightened my spine . and faced him directly .
“ Of course . I am here today to have an appointment with Adenauer ” .
Pleasure exploded when I saw her face cloud over . My revenge had struck
house
” You seem upset . Don’t tell me it ‘s because I have a new date . ” I deliberately provoked it .
Aaron looked away , but snorted as the corner of his mouth turned up .

His gaze captured mine once more as he got closer .

I froze , stunned .
Did you think I had married Vincent ?
Wait … My mind reeled in confusion .
So three years ago , Aaron had believed that I had married Vincent before he announced his
engagement ?
Had he thought that she had abandoned him , toying with his affections all along ? Co?tent belo?gs to

Our eyes met again . Anger burned in those blue eyes , but I caught a glimpse of something else .
He could still love me !
My mouth went dry , but a small me of hope reignited in my heart .
“ Aaron , I … ”
I was stunned once again .
” What do you mean ? “
“ You know the answer . She shoved her hands into his pants pockets , a nasty smile twisting her lips
— the one I knew all too well .
My mind went nk and my eyes were wide as he leaned into me .
His familiar breath blew hot against my face , and he lowered his voice to the point that it sounded like
a demon ‘s whisper .
” Am I wrong ? Aren’t you always like this ? Do n’t you enjoy the thrill of cheating ? ”
