Chapter 19 Don't Get Married With Aaron, Okay
Aaron sent his man to pick her up. This time, she was taken directly to his company.
Rita had never been to the building of the Leng Company before. The building of the Leng Company was located in the Financial Street in the city center. Row upon row of buildings seemed to be the peak made of diamonds. It was modern and full of design sense.
When she got out of the car, she couldn't open her eyes in the strong sunlight. The driver led her in and directly to the way to the president's office.
As soon as she appeared in the main hall of the company building, she was greeted by the attention from all directions. Everyone in the company knew that she was the fiancée of President Aaron, and they all looked at her to find out who she was like.
Rita lowered her head and was ready to walk to the VIP elevator. At this time, she heard someone calling her from behind, "Riri."
It was a familiar voice. When she turned around, she saw Magee.
"What... Why are you here?" Rita opened her mouth widely and could not believe her eyes.
"Our company has a cooperation project with the Leng Company, and I'm in charge of this project," said Magee gently. He smiled and pressed the elevator button. "What about you? Are you here to see Mr. Aaron?"
"Yes." She bit her lips and forced herself to calm down. Her heart beat fast, and she felt it was almost going to jump out of her throat. She couldn't help but keep looking at the elevator, thinking why the elevator still didn't come down.
The atmosphere suddenly became awkward.
She didn't even know how to speak to Magee, as she had no idea at all what to say. She was so close to him before, but now they were like two strangers.
"The relationship between you and Aaron... When did this happen? Why didn't you mention that before?" Magee pretended to be relaxed in order to ease the tense atmosphere. He was also curious why things suddenly became like this shortly after he left.
"In recent time, something happened to my family. My father arranged me to have a blind date with Aaron. So that's it."
Rita shrugged. She didn't dare to look up at Magee because she was afraid that she would lose control if she looked at him.
She had been pretending to be strong, but she was unable to stay calm when seeing Magee. She had known him for so many years, and she had missed the chance being with him for so many years.
"I'm sorry, Riri," said Magee, looking at her with an faint light in his eyes. "I just knew what happened to the Gu family. I didn't help. I'm sorry." Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.
His voice was so soft and gentle, like a melodious sound played by violin.
She took a deep breath and tried to calm down, struggling in her heart. She was stuck in pain and regret. If she could wait for a little longer, hang on a little longer, if that night she didn't meet Aaron, if she didn't go on the blind date the next day, she might not miss Magee? If so, would she get up the courage to confess her love to him?
There were no ifs in the world.
"You don't have to do that. It's the business of our family." She squeezed a smile, as sweet as always. She looked up at Magee. At that moment, her heart was faintly painful. "You have your own life, and
you shouldn't get involved in my trouble."
"How could your things equal to trouble?" Magee frowned. He thought he was calm enough, but the moment when he saw Rita, he found that he was unable to control himself. "Why did you agree to marry Aaron? Riri, do you know that he..."
Ding Dong——
The elevator stopped at this time and Rita went in it. Magee followed her in.
Rita didn't hear what he had just said. She turned to him and asked, "What did you say?"
He tried to say something but stopped in a few seconds.
"I think you'd better think twice about your marriage. After all, there are a lot of affair news about him in recent years and he has relationships with a lot of women. I don't want you to suffer any loss."
Rita laughed coldly. "He changed women more frequently than he changed clothes. I was surprised when he decided to marry me all of a sudden, but I knew he has his own reason."
"Think it over by yourself."
When they were in the elevator, Rita turned her head to look outside from the window instead of seeing Magee.
She had waited him for so many years, but he didn't say anything to her. It was ironic that a man who had just met her for less than a week proposed to her.
"Riri," Magee hesitated for a while and called her.
He wanted to tell Rita that he had been keeping this secret in his heart for a long time, but he didn't know if it would be too late.
"What? What's up?"
She looked at the number on the elevator constantly changing. It was soon to arrive at the fiftieth floor.
Magee eagerly walked closely to her and asked in a gentle voice, "Don't get married with Aaron, okay?"
