Chapter 472 A Phone Call from Aaron

"Olive, I'm sorry."

This was the first thing Aaron said to me after I answered the phone. His voice was slightly trembling, but it didn't sound weak. I should have felt reassured, but after this sentence, I immediately burst into tears and could hardly utter a complete sentence

Yes, these days, even though I repeatedly expressed my belief that Aaron would come back, there were still many people insinuating to me that a maritime disaster 1s beyond rescue

I knew that they had a good intention, preparing me mentally in advance, so that I wouldn't be unable to recover from the grief once I actually

received the news of Aaron's death

So even though I firmly told them every time that Aaron would not die in the plane crash, to be honest, after hearing those words so many times, I myself have been shaken in my beliefs However, I never showed panic or sadness, or rather, I had to reinforce my belief in my heart time and time again, telling myself that I had to wait for Aaron to come back alive

And when the immense mental pressure was almost crushing me, Aaron called

I don't think even Aaron himself could possibly understand how much of a great redemption this phone call was for me

"Aaron... I really miss you! Where are you? Have you been hurt?"

He obviously felt pain for our separation these days. As I asked while crying, there was a long silence on the other end of the phone, followed by a few muffled sniffs when he finally spoke, "T'm still in California, and I'm very safe now

I'm sorry, Olive, I shouldn't have left you alone

Are you okay? How are Molly and Jasmin? Taking care of them by yourself, and dealing with my father, must be so difficult..."

My emotions gradually calmed down, and with Aaron's questioning, I realized that he had probably already seen the interview footage of old Morris

"We are fine, Aaron. The children are with Cinder because your father called me to the hospital today and talked to me. He asked me to consider for two days about merging all the assets of GHY Group into Morris Group. But don't worry, I didn't agree with him."

I wiped away my tears and gradually realized that Aaron's phone call was definitely not just to let me know he was safe. We had more important matters to discuss

However, to my surprise, Aaron comforted me for a few moments and immediately told me, "No, you have to agree to it. In fact, everything that has happened recently was planned by Joe and me, in order to force our father to reveal his true face sooner. Olive, please forgive me for only telling you all of this now, because only you, who have been suffering from my disappearance, will believe that it was a genuine accident."

Now, our father finally revealed his true intention. What you need to do now is to pretend that you still haven't received my message, don't tell anyone that I am still alive, and then agree to his plan of merging the company to obtain that ten percent of shares

To be honest, I have been on the edge of emotional breakdown recently, until just now when I heard the familiar and calm voice on the phone, my sanity slowly returned

"T understood. Aaron, I will do as you said, take care of yourself."

Even though there are countless longings in my heart, now is not the time to express them. We still have a common struggle to complete, and in Aaron's current situation where he cannot easily come forward, I must help him with everything in New York

After the phone call ended, I stared at the wall clock for a long time

In just a few days, my mood went through ups

and downs, as if falling from the clouds to the bottom of the valley, and then soaring back to the sky because of a phone call from Aaron

Every word he said to me on the phone, I kept in my heart. It was only in the middle of the night, when I was alone, combing through and savoring the memories, that I suddenly remembered Joe was the only person who knew the whole truth He and Aaron planned the disappearance together, and while Aaron stayed alone in California for these days, he was overseeing everything in New York. All the information that Aaron could obtain should have also been conveyed by Joe But what did I do again?

Iran to Morris's house and loudly accused Joe

of being a jealous brother, suspecting that he tampered with the plane and wanted to harm Aaron's life

I said so harshly, every word was so hurtful, but Joe just told me that day that he wouldn't do anything to harm Aaron

It is really hard to imagine how he felt when I finished speaking those nonsense words, back then

I was a jerk and I should apologize to Joe
