Chapter 341 Why Grab My Hand?
Chapter 341 Why Grab My Hand?
Baron tried to get rid of Roman''s grip, "Roman, have you learned your mistake?"
When Roman heard this, his eyes turned sharp, "Dad, I have always known that you favor Drake more
than me, but I didn''t expect that even after what has happened, you still choose to favor him."
"It has been a long time and this is the first time you havee visit me. You have never asked him to
help me. You wouldn''t even mind even if he killed me one day, would you?"
Baron looked at him in disbelief, "Roman, I haven''t been around you these years and Olivia has turned
you into this?"
"Into what?" Roman despised, "You just hope you have never had me, right? If you hate me so much,
why didn''t you ask Mom to abort me?"
Baron looked at him and didn''t know what to say, "I don''t hate you. Roman, you think she would have

aborted you if I asked her to?"
"To put it bluntly, you simply see my mom as a scheming woman." Roman had an ironic smile.
"Isn''t it true? Everyone knew that Emma and I were deeply in love back then. Although a lot of women
wanted to hook up with me, they did not do anything. But your mother, she tricked me into bed so that
she could have you as her bargaining chip to get into the Riley family!"
Roman said with a long face, "You say you love Drake''s mother. If you really did love her, you wouldn''t
have slept with my mom. Haven''t you ever loved my mom?"
Baron found it funny, "You know your mother better than I do and you should know how scheming she
is. I couldn''t avoid it no matter how alert I was. If I could, things wouldn''t havee to this!"
"And I can tell you that I have never had any feelings for your mother, but you are innocent. I haven''t
been around you because I hate the idea of her using you to get to me. If she hadn''t married me or she
had only wished you to be around me, I would be a good father to you."
Baron said it very firmly.
But, despite what he said, in Roman''s opinion, it was just an excuse.
When Baron reached the door, Roman suddenly asked, "Mom... Has she abandoned me too?"
Since Zain failed the election and Harris became the mayor, Harris had been trying to cope with Zain''s
supporters.
Although Olivia had not held a government position and didn''t publicly tell others which side to take,
Zain''s failure had a big impact on Olivia.
So, when Roman hadn''t seen her for several days, Roman thought that she had given him up.
Baron was stunned for a moment and said, "Your mother is fixing her mistakes."
Roman suddenly understood something, "Did you do something to her?"
"No!"
Baron walked out.
But Roman didn''t believe in his words. To him, Baron had always been a man who didn''t care about
him at all.
This time, Baron must have known the fact that Olivia had participated in the election and he must have
done something.
Roman desperately gritted his teeth.
After a day of shooting, Aria felt very tired and took a look at her watch. It was already after 11 p. m.
However, she had been used to it. After all, this happened a lot in the acting business.
Aria''s personality had also changed a lot. Although she was the daughter of the Riley family, she got
along well with the crew and everyone here liked her.
After work, she said goodbye to everyone and walked out.
"I am here to pick you up, Miss Riley!"
Paul had been leaning against the car, he smiled and stood straight when he saw Aria.
Aria said, "Drake asked you toe pick me up?"
But it couldn''t be. Drake had never asked anyone toe pick her up after work since she started
working here.
Paul felt shy to say that he wanted toe pick her up on his own will. He scratched the back of her
head and said, embarrassed, "Yes, Mr. Riley asked me here. He said it''ste and he''s worried about
you."
Aria grunted, "Stop putting in a good word for him! He has never done this before!"
Paul was stunned, and suddenly, he didn''t know how to answer her.
"But you are a pleasant surprise. I am hungry. I will treat you to dinner! Shall we?"
With that, Aria walked to the passenger seat.
Paul reacted and quickly opened the door of the passenger seat for her. When she got in, he protected
her head.
Everything seemed so natural that Paul was still in a daze.
Aria fastened the seat belt and looked at Paul who was in a daze. She asked strangely, "Why are you
still standing there?"
"Oh, oh!"
Finally, Paul came to his senses.
Paul quickly returned to the driver''s seat. Maybe it was because he was too nervous or maybe too
excited, he identally grabbed Aria''s hand when he was going to fasten his seat belt.
Aria stared at him with a strange look.
Paul blushed and his heart beat even faster. But he still didn''t realize what he was doing.
"Paul, why are you holding my hand? Fasten the seat belt!"
"Ah!"
Paul finally noticed his hand grabbing Aria''s and immediately loosened his grip. "Miss Riley, I''m sorry! I
didn''t mean it."
Aria felt him really weird today.
"Drive. I want to go back to bed early after eating."
"Okay!"
Paul told himself that he must calm down and drive safely. He couldn''t get Aria into a car ident.
There were not many restaurants open at this time, they walked into a random one.
This was the first time Paul had had dinner with Aria alone. He had never felt his heart beat so fast
before, he felt like a teenage girl who had just fallen in love.
Aria ordered some dishes and handed him the menu. "What do you want to eat?"
Paul was so nervous that he could hardly speak. "Anything you ordered will be fine."
Aria didn''t say anything but ordered some more food.
While waiting for the dishes, Aria looked at him strangely, "Paul, what''s wrong with you today? You
seem really ufortable. Is there something wrong?"
