Love Began with the First Meeting
Chapter 942 Extra Story 80 Of Aaron Misunderstanding

As soon as she finished saying that, Silver Fox stood straight. Looking at Aaron's cold face, which was masked with surprise, confusion and anger, she could not help but chuckle in an innocent manner. "Well, it's been a long time since the last time I saw you try hard to refrain yourself from hitting someone," she said. Bursting into laughter, her voice changed back into a more feminine one. "All right," she started. "I'm leaving." She was already walking towards the door when she turned around and said, "In fact, the most important purpose of why I came here was to take my man to have a look at Grand Night Casino. He views it as his strongest competitor.'

As soon as she finished what she was saying, she picked up her bag and walked out of the room, like a model strutting the runway in her five-inch heels. "Oh and another thing," she said, right before she opened the door. "That 'annoying woman' on your phone called and admitted how she's your woman," she ended chuckling. While saying that, she turned her head to look at Aaron exactly in time to capture a glimmer of surprise in his eyes. "It really seems like she is an interesting woman. I will invite her to dinner later." "Silver Fox, you're not permitted do that," Aaron warned, his voice once again dangerous.

However, Silver Fox didn't care about what he said at all. She finally left his office, leaving nothing but her sweet, womanly scent.

When the door was closed, Aaron took a deep breath and leaned back on his chair. Remembering what had happened awhile ago, he quickly picked up his cellphone and slid the screen open. He checked the call records again. Ximena had already called him twice. The first one had not been picked up, and the second one had been picked up by Silver Fox. When he thought of what Silver Fox had told him just now- that Ximena said that she was his woman-

a smile spread from the corners of his mouth, something which he wasn't aware of. 'Well,' he thought to himself, 'It seems that after a period of me being cold towards you, you've finally realized what I truly mean to you.

Ximena, I don't care if you go to heaven or hell, as long as you are in QY Island, you can't do anything else but stay by my side. I'm glad that you've understood that.' His smile was wide now.

'As for the family... it is not an urgent matter.'

With these thoughts in his mind, Aaron stood up and went out of the room with his cellphone in hand.

"Your Highness!" Ken greeted him. He had been waiting outside Aaron's office. Seeing that Aaron had already walked out, he started tailing him. They both entered Aaron's exclusive elevator, and headed to the underground parking. "Go to her shop," Aaron ordered in an apathetic voice when they both got in the car.

Taking a look at Aaron from the rearview mirror, Ken answered yes and then started the car, heading to Ximena's fashion design shop.

Since she had hung up the phone, Ximena's spirit had left her body. She knew clearly what kind of person Aaron was, just like a person who begged for a living everyday knew the master of the dark world. As he had said to her when they had met for the first time along the dark alley, there were a plenty of women around him, beauties and virgins.

Thinking of that, she could not help frown and sigh deeply. She was deep in her feelings when her cellphone rang. Instinctively, she looked at the cellphone. When she saw the number of the shop on the first floor displayed on the screen, she felt deeply disappointed. Picking up the phone, she asked, "What's the matter?"

"The wife of the speaker of the island's parliament is here, and she wants to order two custom dresses for a banquet at the council hall next month," the shop manager answered.

"All right. I'm going downstairs," Ximena said. After hanging up the phone, she took a few deep breaths to take her mind of the sadness she was currently feeling. Psyched up, though fake, she went downstairs with renewed enthusiasm.

The wife of the speaker was a woman in her forties, but she definitely looked younger. She seemed to be admirably righteous, perhaps because of the personality she was born with, or perhaps because of the environment of the council hall she had been in. She told Ximena about the style of clothes she preferred. Ximena thought for a while and then roughly drew a design sketch based on her descriptions. Obviously the wife of the speaker was satisfied with Ximena's design. "I met Mrs. Wang when she was wearing a dress designed by you," she said, taking Ximena's hand. "She looked gorgeous in it and I like it very much. That's why I came here. I thought I should have a try. However, I didn't expect that your design matches my style so well. That's a surprise for me. I'm very impressed." "I'm glad that you like it," Ximena said with a genuine smile. It made her giddy when people appreciated and loved her designs. Obviously, some people became her customers as a way of flattering Aaron, but the wife of the speaker was different. She definitely really liked the clothes designed by Ximena.

"Can I get the dress before the banquet at the council hall next month?" the wife of the speaker asked, seemingly nervous.

"I'm sure you will have it by then," Ximena said with a smile and a nod. "I will finish the complete design in a day or two. Then you can come here and have a look at it when you have time. As soon as you're totally satisfied with the design, we can start tailoring." "That's great. How about I return three days from now?"

"That's alright with me," Ximena answered enthusiastically. After the two of then came to an agreement, the wife of the speaker bid Ximena goodbye and stood up. Ximena stood up too, intending to see her off. To her surprise, as soon as she turned around, she saw Aaron and Ken standing at the gate of the shop. By instinct, she asked, "You...Why are you here?"

The wife of the speaker was also surprised to see Aaron here. Nevertheless, as a person involved in politics, she was able to hide her emotions completely. In a calm voice, she greeted Aaron, "Long time no see, Mr. Leng."

"Long time no see," Aaron greeted her in return in an indifferent voice.

After a small talk, the wife of the speaker said goodbye with a smile, "I have something to do, so I'm leaving now."

"Okay, I will pay you and your husband a visit soon," Aaron said.

Hearing that, the wife of the speaker nodded with a smile and then left the fashion design shop.

Ximena hadn't taken part in their talks. It was not until the wife of the speaker left that she pursed her lips and looked at Aaron. "Well... Why did you come here?" she asked in confusion.

"You called me, didn't you?" Aaron asked her back in a cool tone.

'Calling you doesn't mean that I want you to come here!'

Ximena silently thought, criticizing Aaron's logic. Deciding to not voice that out, she did nothing but curl her lips. Since she could not speak as freely as she intended to in front of the employees, she said, "I wanted to ask whether you were going to have lunch with me." "Hmm," Aaron answered. "Okay then. Let's go." He took Ximena's hand and pulled her close to him. "That's exactly why I came here. I'm picking you up to have lunch."

"Oh really?" Ximena was so shocked that she was not able to realize what had happened right away. When she was able to, she was already in Aaron's car.

The car started running. Along the way, Aaron didn't say a single word to Ximena. He was only busy reading a financial magazine. Sitting beside him, Ximena felt like she was sitting on pins and needles. She could do nothing but guess what Aaron was going to do with her, until she found the car turning towards the way to the manor.

"Are we going to the manor?" she asked.

"Yup."

"Are we going to have lunch at the manor?" she asked again.

"Yup."

Realizing that Aaron didn't want to talk to her, she could not help roll her eyes. 'Well, two people can play that game,' she thought, staying silent for the rest of the ride. She did have to leech on to him to exist, but she didn't want to exist in a passive way. After a few minutes, they arrived at the gate of the manor. Without looking at Aaron, Ximena got off the car. It was her turn to ignore him. However, she instantly froze as soon as she turned her head to look at the manor. Seeing how the manor looked, she gasped, leaving her mouth wide open and her eyes like saucers.
