Chapter 111: We Need to Talk
When Aaron saw me tense up, he glanced in the direction I was looking.
“Vincent…” I muttered, voice cold. I thought I’d finally gotten away from that s*umbag-if for just a short time-but he haunted me everywhere I went.
Shouldn’t he be on vacation with Emily? That’s what we all agreed on, right?
Why was he here? Did he crave the thrill of cheating right under my nose? Or did he want to beg for my forgiveness?
The moment Aaron saw Vincent, he looked even more irritated than I did. Neither of us expected this.
I pursed my lips and reached out to pull Aaron along by the arm. “Why don’t we… wait a while before we go in.”
I didn’t want to have any contact with Vincent, but Aaron gave me a reassuring look before he pulled me to his side.
Aaron always had an aura about him that made me feel at ease, so I couldn’t help but trust him.
The moment we walked past him, Vincent shamelessly called
out to me.
“Olive! Didn’t expect to see you here!” Vincent called as he walked toward me. He reached out to try to pull me in for a hug, but when he saw me shrouded in Aaron’s suit jacket, his expression turned grim.
I subconsciously flinched away from his touch, and Aaron held me by the shoulders and glared at Vincent forcefully. Silently, he claimed me as his.
“Where’s Emily?” I looked at Vincent indifferently. “Isn’t she supposed to be your ‘girlfriend’ for Christmas?”
Pain flashed in Vincent’s eyes, and he tried to explain himself. “Olive, you don’t understand. It’s not like that with Emily…”
“You’re still trying to convince me? After everything that’s happened? You must think I’m really st*pid.” I snickered as my heart flooded with disgust. If Vincent would just outright admit to cheating, I might be able to respect him as a man at the very least.
Too bad he was just another coward.
“Olive…”
“Stay away from my girl,” Aaron raised his voice, stopping Vincent in his tracks. “You’re not welcome here. Leave us alone-leave HER alone-or I’ll call security.”
“You really…” All of Vincent’s confidence evaporated under Aaron’s stare. Despite how harshly Vincent glared at him, he couldn’t find the words to argue.
Emily suddenly walked over from the front desk with a room card in her hand. She held her chin up proudly as she glanced over at me and Aaron. “You can’t just kick Vincent out, Aaron. My family has also invested in this property. You have no right.”
Aaron’s eyebrows furrowed as he realized he had less power here than he initially thought.
Once Vincent heard this, his bravado returned. He looked at Aaron smugly, and his expression made my stomach turn.
اَ
glanced at Vincent coldly, cursing him from the very bottom of my heart. He won’t admit to having a relationship with
Emily, yet he has no problem relying on her when he’s in a tight spot. How shameless could he be?
Regardless, if Emily’s family was a large shareholder, it wouldn’t be so easy to drive them away.
I didn’t want to make things difficult for Aaron, and I didn’t our vacation to be ruined on the first day, so I took the initiative and said, “Let’s go.”
But Aaron didn’t move. He held me by the waist and sneered at Vincent. “If there’s nothing between you and Emily, then why are you two here together?”
Vincent’s expression cracked for a moment, but he was quick to recover. “Because I’m staying true to my word. This is what we agreed on, right? You basically forced me to spend time with her.”
Aaron nodded. “That’s exactly what we agreed on, and Olive and I are holding up our end of the bargain.”
As soon as Aaron mentioned me, Vincent’s expression soured and he glanced down at Aaron’s arm around my waist.
