Love Began with the First Meeting
Chapter 941 Extra Story 79 Of Aaron Misunderstanding

The woman at the other end of the phone frowned as well. She wondered whose number Aaron would save as "an annoying woman". "Who are you?" she asked back.

After hearing that, Ximena couldn't help but roll her eyes. Taking a deep breath, she turned her head to look at the cars zooming back and forth on the road in front of the shop. There was a certain pinching sensation she was feeling in her heart, and she was trying to shake it off. However, she couldn't and all of a sudden, she blurted out, "I'm his woman!" The statement was made so abruptly that it even surprised Ximena herself. Realizing how her strong desire to possess Aaron was deeply embedded into her unconsciously, she entered a state of daze, primarily because of her astonishment.

With her mouth ajar, Ximena started looking around, looking for people who might have heard her. When she saw that there was nobody else around her, she secretly rejoiced. Otherwise, she would have been extremely embarrassed. 'Ximena, how dare you say that!' she thought to herself.

The woman at the other end of the phone was also understandably shocked by what she just said. Looking at the screen of Aaron's cellphone, which she was holding in her hand, she checked the caller's name. Blinking, she thought, 'When did Aaron meet such a woman? And why haven't I been informed?'

"You..." she started, opening her mouth.

Beep.

The busy tone came through before she could even say another word. The person at the other end had already hung up. The woman's brow curled into a big frown, and her pretty face looked confused and annoyed at the same time.

All of a sudden, someone snatched the phone from her hand. Quickly, the woman came to her senses and looked at the person who took the phone from her. Turning around, she found out that Aaron himself was the one who took the phone. Remembering what just happened and who she talked to, she crossed her arms over her chest and leaned against his desk. Looking at Aaron, who was wearing a formal suit, she could not help but chuckle. "Your Highness really looks like a CEO in a formal suit," she commented. Aaron ignored the mocking statement and quickly examined his call records. When he saw that the last person who called was the "annoying woman", a smile of comfort flashed across his eyes. Sliding his phone in his pocket, he glanced at the woman and gave her a tender smile.

Turning the other way, he started towards the wine cabinet and picked up a bottle of whiskey. Aaron also took two glasses, and then carefully filled them up with alcohol. With a dazzling smile, he gave one to the woman, and said, in a sweet voice, "It seems that your shortcoming of picking up others' phone calls without their permission hasn't been corrected yet."

Taking the glass of whiskey, the woman twirled her long, luscious, curly hair around her slender fingers. A smirk appeared on her face and she started walking to the sofa. When she got to it, she sat on it and crossed her slender legs in sexiest manner. Seeing that, Aaron also walked to the sofa and sat down opposite to her. In a sly tone, the woman said slowly, "It was not until a moment ago that I found Your Highness could be so lovely."

The woman then remembered the name that appeared on the phone "an annoying woman", and started feeling disillusioned.

Hearing what she had said, Aaron's face expression quickly turned grim and with narrowed eyes, he glared at the woman, cold and dangerous. The cellphone thing wasn't of interest to him anymore and, so he said, "I'll give you three minutes to explain why you've come here. If you fail to give me a satisfactory answer, I will throw you out."

"You really should try to be nicer to people, especially women..." the woman said, rolling her eyes. It was as if she could not bear to be around Aaron any longer.

"Well, first of all, you have to be a woman!" Aaron shouted angrily, his eyes burning with rage.

Hearing Aaron's harsh words, the woman sat up straight immediately. With her perfectly blended smokey eye and sharp eyeliner, she replied, in an even angrier tone, "What I hate the most is when I am not viewed as a woman by anybody!"

"You have two minutes!" Aaron reminded "her" in a cold voice, disregarding her earlier protest. After saying that, he raised the glass in his hand and took a sip of whiskey. He savored the bitter taste of the hard liquor before he swallowed it.

It seemed that the "woman" became angrier. She opened her eyes wider and glared at Aaron. However, Aaron didn't relent to the "woman"'s demands and instead, glared back at her with more intensity. In the end, the woman couldn't do anything and so she leaned against the sofa softly. Sighing, she quietly said, "This year the ammunition market of Northern Europe offers us thirty percent of share, but it is said that the number of small warships could not satisfy market demand in E Country. Therefore, the head of Tiger told me to ask you how many you want this year."

"I don't care whether the market demand could be satisfied," Aaron started, his tone pointed as ever. "That is not my business. My share, however, should not be missing!" As soon as Aaron finished saying this, he put the glass of whisky on the tea table in front of the sofa, stood up and walked towards his desk. "It's unnecessary for you to ask me about that in person. Tell me the truth. Why on earth are you here?"

"Our boss thinks that your actions in QY Island have been too reckless," the woman started, her voice still quiet. "He hopes you can restrain yourself as much as possible." The woman took a sip of whiskey.

After hearing that, a sneer immediately formed at the corners of Aaron's mouth. He sat down on his chair in front of his desk and typed something with keyboard for a while. When he finished, he leaned on his chair and chuckled, saying, "Do they really think they have the right to meddle in my business? The moment they upset me, I will send those old men to a deserted island and make sure that they spend the rest of their pathetic lives there."

Such cruel words wouldn't allow anybody to challenge whoever spoke it. The computer in front of Aaron started displaying strings of information that he carefully watched. When it was over, he turned to the woman once again and said, in a very chilly voice, "From now on, you do not need to come here, especially if you're only coming for such kind of thing. If they want to live a comfortable life, I can let them live a peaceful life in old age. If they don't want to..." The corners of his mouth curled into a smile, though a sinister one. "I will let them regret the hell out of their sorry asses! And I'll get even with them for everything that has happened! Starting from them sending someone to install sound monitors at my place!"

Hearing Aaron's words, the woman's smile froze and her lips twitched. Obviously shaken up, she took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down and said, "Your Highness, you know that you haven't been obedient to them, so those old men don't know how to control you. Anyhow, they won't take too big of an action or cause anything too serious. Therefore..."

"Ew, Silver Fox, when did you become so softhearted?" Aaron interrupted her, his voice mocking.

Upon hearing his question, the woman, who was apparently called "Silver Fox", smiled in an attractive way and said, "Of course. I've changed because of my man." Smiling knowingly, she twirled the wine glass in her hand, revealing long, bright red acrylics on all of her fingers. The light yellow liquid in the glass swirled, just like her heart, which was beating faster because of the topic Aaron had initiated just now. After taking a sip of her drink, she added, "Your Highness, if you have someone you care about, you will understand me and have the same feeling as I do." After saying that, she wore a bewitching smile, raised her hand and drank up all the whiskey in her glass. Then she put the glass on the tea table. She stood up and walked to the desk. Standing opposite to Aaron, with both her hands placed on the desk to support her upper body, she fixed her eyes on Aaron, who looked cold. Slowly, she said, "People may choose not to leave a leeway for themselves to retreat to, but they will leave a leeway for the people they care about retreat to." All of a sudden, her voice turned loud and jarring, which didn't sound like a woman's. In such a voice, she continued, "Aaron, I have told you that no matter how powerful a person is, the person will be soft in some aspect. And you are no exception. Otherwise, you would not have let that man go, you would not have compromised and operated the Leng's Corporations for him as he planned. This is where your softness lies. You want a family."
