Chapter 709


    “I''m thirsty!" | came downstairs for water, but | did not expect to eavesdrop on their conversation.


    He nodded, "Alright, wait a minute!"


    After | gulped down the water, he straight away put the cooked food in front of me, saying gently, "After eating, go and get some


    sleep, alright?"


    | nodded. | did not ask about Chloe. We were all bad people after all. So, why bother being merciful?


    Though | said that | was hungry, | did not eat much and in fact, had no appetite to eat.


    Seeing that | did not want to eat anymore, he frowned and asked, "You don''t like it?"


    | shook my head, leaned into his arms, and sighed slightly, "It''s delicious, but | think I''m not hungry anymore."


    He did not force me to eat. He knew that if | ate too much, I''d puke it all up.


    He understood me even better than | understood myself.


    We only sat together as time went by quietly. None of us said a word to each other.


    As | was falling asleep, | felt him holding my hand.


    He embraced me and said in a low and maic voice, "Arianna, I''m sorry!"


    | remember thinking that his voice sounded blurry before dozing off.


    The next day.


    It was rare to see Aaron here. He had dropped by with a few things.


    Most of them were for Anne.


    He saw that | was not feeling well. He didn''t pay Hendrix much attention and diverted his focus on me. He asked, "How about we


    go back to the Reid family?"


    Although the Reid House was in the city centre, it was a ce guarded by and under the supervision of the military. Thus, if


    reporters identally entered the premises, they were punishable byw.


    | shook my head. Anne didn''t go to school. It appeared that she liked what he brought. She looked at them carefully and even


    loved their packaging.


    Thinking of Yana, | couldn''t help frowning, "Did you visit Yana?"


    He was a little surprised by my question and mumbled softly, "Yes."


    | was troubled by his perfunctory reply, "Aaron, if you don''t love her, you should''ve left her alone from the start. What were you


    doing, making her stay by your side but continuously leaving her unattended? Have you ever thought of the baby’s future?”


    He frowned and pinched his brows. With a sigh, he looked at me. "Arianna, can you butt out of this matter? Yana gave birth to


    my child, so | will give her everything she deserves. | will not do her wrong."


    | fell silent. After a long while, | looked at him and asked, "Do you have feelings for Eunice?"


    He frowned slightly, "It''s just for fun. There''s no need to overthink things."


    “Mommy, when uncle fetched me, | met Grandma. She said that she will being to see you in a few days,” Anne suddenly


    told me.


    | was stunned for a moment as | turned over to Aaron, "Grandma?"


    He nodded, "It''s Valerie. She''s working in a charity foundation now. | greeted her when | saw her at Anne''s school."


    | pursed my lips in silence.


    If no one mentioned anything about Valerie, | would''ve forgotten about our rtionship.


    Seeing that | was silent, Aaron


    hesitated for a while before saying, "|


    know that you rese ersbutshe di


    ug opt spent her whole


    lite searching for you. There''s so


    much helplessness in this matter.


    Arianna, she might even be suffering


    more than you are." Please read the

    Anne looked at me. The little fellow leaned herself against my leg. Sheforted me, "Mommy, it''s okay. You still have me!"


    | smiled faintly; | was not that sad anymore.
