Chapter 286 Let''s Join Hands


    When I returned after buying breakfast, Mike and Joanna were in Aron''s ward. Through the small


    ss window of the door she saw them sitting beside Aron, wiping tears from their eyes. "Why throw


    your life away like that, Aron?" they cried. "Why would you go out when you knew you were in poor


    health? What are we going do if you had an ident?"

    They knew that Aron had always been mature andposed. He had mastered his emotions and his


    mind was ruled by logic and reason. When he steered away from that, it was only because of I.


    "Sorry, grandma, I won''t do such a thing again, " Aron promised, looking at his grandparents


    apologetically. Yesterday, when he learned that I had gone on another blind date, he cut off the drip


    in the IV infusion attached to his arm. This terrified his grandparents, causing them to stay awake all


    night.


    Although Aron called them as soon as he woke up to reassure them, they did not breathe a sigh of


    relief until they saw that Aron was safe and sound. "Why didn''t you think about our feelings when you


    left the hospital without permission? Didn''t you know what would happen?"


    Listening in to their conversation, I clenched her hands that she almost dropped the breakfast bag


    she was holding. She felt partly responsible for the ordeal that Mike and Joanna had to go through.


    When Joanna went to see her yesterday, hoping that she and Aron would get back together, she told


    her that she would never have anything to do with Aron again. Hourster, Aron fainted because of her.


    I didn''t know how to exin it to them.


    "Grandma, I''m fine. Don''t worry, " Aron consoled them. "I know myself. If I don''t get I back, I''ll regret


    it for the rest of my life."


    Hearing this, his grandparents fell into silence. They knew that he liked I, but neither of them


    expected her to be that important to Aron.


    I, standing at the door, was moved by what Aron just said. For the first time, she didn''t want to run


    away from this thing between them. She realized that she wanted to be with Aron.


    I entered the ward and said to Aron, "Aron, here''s your breakfast. I don''t know what you like, so I


    just bought a few things."


    "Thank you, I. I like them all, " Aron said. His eyes flickered and a smile lit his face.


    "Grandpa Mike, Grandma Joanna, have you two had breakfast yet? I bought enough breakfast for


    everyone. Pleasee and partake of it, " I thoughtfully called them to join in.


    "Don''t worry about us, dear I, " Joanna smiled and refused. Then she added, "Aron told me you


    have looked after him all night. We are grateful for what you did. Thank you."


    "You''re more than wee, " I replied. Then I handed Aron a cup of soy milk and sat by his bed,


    peeling an egg for him. Joanna was pleased with what she saw.


    "Grandma Joanna, the doctor said that Aron has to spend one more night here for observation. I''ll still


    be here tonight to take care of him, so you two can go home." I told them.


    "No, that''s not a good idea." Joanna refused the offer. "You''ve looked after himst night. If you stay


    another night, you''ll tire out."


    "Grandma is right, I." Aron agreed with Joanna, and looked at I lovingly. "Watching over me all


    night must have been exhausting. I will be fine here alone tonight. You need to go home, rest and get


    freshened up."


    "I''m all right, " I insisted. "I''ll take you home early tomorrow morning, and then I''ll go straight to


    work."


    "I, we will be here tonight to take care of Aron." Joanna and Mike didn''t think it was okay for I to


    stay here and take care of Aron. "We know that you have your duties at work. Leave Aron in our care


    and just have a good rest tonight."


    "Stop arguing, grandma, I, " Aron interrupted them. It felt good to have loving people around. Then


    he made the final decision. "Grandpa, grandma, both of you aren''t young anymore and staying up to


    care for me all night will affect your health. As for you, I, you''ve done your partst night. Didn''t you


    say you were going to make a proposal tomorrow? I won''t have you messing it up because of me. So


    you all have a good rest tonight and let me stay here by myself. There is absolutely no need to worry


    about me. I can be here by myself."


    "No, you can''t... " With worries written on her face, I tried to counter his decision. She wouldn''t be


    able to really rest if Aron was left alone at the hospital.


    "I... will... be... all... right!" Aron said firmly again and word for word. "Don''t worry, it''s just one night."


    In the end, at Aron''s insistence, the other three had to concede.


    Later at noon that day, Le ran into an acquaintance. "What are you doing here?" she asked


    aggressively.


    Le was really unhappy to see Pa downstairs at Shining Company. When they both were at Cloud


    Advertising Company, they hated each other because of their respective positions.


    "I want to have a talk with you, " Pa answered with a broad smile. "I promise you, it won''t take too


    much of your time. Most important of all... What I am going to tell you will definitely intrigue you. You


    are gonna love it, " she said with a sinister smile.


    "I don''t think we have anything to talk about." Le gave Pa a mocking sneer. She thought that she


    and Pa were from different worlds, and they had absolutely nothing inmon.


    Le turned to leave, but Pa stopped her, grabbing her arm. "Don''t you want to be with Charles?"


    Pa asked.


    "What do you mean?" Le thought no one knew about her feelings for Charles, least of all Pa.


    "Do you think you hide your feelings well?" Pa said with one brow up. "I''ve always known that you


    liked Charles. Ohh wait.. the right word is looooove, " she mocked.


    "What do you want?" Le asked, ready to punch Pa. The sooner she got rid of this bitch, the better.


    "As I said, I just wanted to have a talk with you. Do you have time now?" Pa sneered. With that,


    Le hesitated but reluctantly agreed. Paughed at her naivete.


    They went into a restaurant where there wasn''t a lot of people. As soon as Le sat down, she coldly


    asked, "Seriously, what do you want from me?"


    "Oh don''t be such a killjoy. We haven''t seen each other for so long. Shouldn''t we chat first and catch


    up?" Pa said slyly ignoring Le''s irritated look.


    "Pa, " Le said impatiently, "if you don''t tell me what you want now, I''ll take my leave."


    "Look at you, you''re as hot-tempered as ever!" Pa eximed. She pushed Le, who was already


    up, back onto her seat and said, "Then I will be straight with you. Le, I know you like Charles. How


    about this, let''s join hands, and I''ll help you take Charles from Autumn?"


    Le frowned suspiciously at Pa and warily asked, "And why do you want to help me? I know you


    like Charles, too. So why are you going to help me get him now?"


    She wasn''t born yesterday and she didn''t think that Pa would help her for no reason.


    "I?" Pa paused for a second and went on, "Do you think Charles will ever be attracted to me? No, I


    don''t think so. But you, your situation is better. You see him almost every day. You still have a chance


    to snag him."
