Chapter 1637 Betrayal

Alicia adjusted her clothes that were almost falling off when she saw him staring at his phone with a gloomy expression.

"You go on and take that call. I'll wait for you in the room," she said while making her way to the bedroom. Aaron stared at the phone as it continued to ring and answered the call at the very last second.

"I told you I'd make you reveal your identity sooner or later, Ari. Who would've thought you'd call me before that?" Aaron said coldly with a slight grin.

Alicia, who had just entered the room, felt her heart ache when she heard that name. She then closed the door, lay down on the bed, and silently processed her thoughts.

Meanwhile, Aaron lit a cigarette and made his way toward the window. He looked rather lonely as he stood there staring at the night sky outside.

Arielle felt her heart sink a little when she heard his tone. He seems to really hate me...

"Aaron, let's put our differences aside for the time being. I need to talk to you about Father," she said coldly.

"Father?" A devilish smile formed on Aaron's face as he continued, "What's wrong with Father? He seems fine to me!"

Arielle felt her anger burning up after hearing that and recalling the information she had received. "Aaron, you can just voice out any dissatisfaction you have toward Father. Why did you have to betray him like that?"

She already knew about him taking Nancy's side before she came, but she had assumed he wouldn't actually betray his own father. Unfortunately, Arielle was wrong about him.

I can't believe Aaron would go and tell her about Dylan's plan to undermine her! How could he betray his own father like it's the most natural thing in the world?

The light in Aaron's eyes dimmed slightly. "I don't know what you're talking about!"

Why does she know about me betraying Father? It's unlikely for Grandma to leak that information, so how did Arielle replace out about it?

"There's no need to play dumb with me, Aaron. You know exactly what I'm talking about! The queen mother has Father under her control for over twenty years now. Life has been incredibly rough for him, so how could you stab him in the back like this? You're his only son, remember?" Arielle said while pacing back and forth in her room.

She couldn't figure out why Aaron would do such a thing, but she didn't want him to go down the wrong path. On top of that, she didn't want Dylan's only son to betray him.

Aaron felt his anger rising after hearing her lecture him. I wouldn't have done this if it weren't for them deceiving me together! Anyone else can criticize me all they want, but those two have no right to do so! "Are you done? I'll be hanging up now!" he said coldly before ending the call.

I've already made my choice, so I'm not going to regret it now! They're the ones who deceived me first, so I have nothing to regret anyway!

With that in mind, Aaron put out his cigarette and made his way toward the bedroom.

Alicia quickly wiped her tears dry and pretended to be asleep when she heard his footsteps approaching.

Upon entering the bedroom, Aaron trod lightly when he heard the faint sound of her steady breathing. After washing up in the bathroom, he gently climbed into bed and held her in his arms as he drifted off to sleep.

"Should we tell your father about Aaron?" Vinson asked when he saw the helpless look on Arielle's face.
