Chapter 38
Nicole seemed so smart and sharp, but why was she so clueless when it came to emotions?”
Aaron gave a small smile. “My intentions?”
Nicole pressed her lips together, then said, “The officers must have been arranged by you. Otherwise, Dr. Cohen and Dr. Greer wouldn’t have been arrested so
quickly.
“You even publicly announced our relationship in front of the press.”
Nicole looked up at Aaron as she said that. He was staring at her intently, and she suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.
It probably had something to do with his striking features. He had a sharp nose and sculpted jawline, and he stood there with a quiet grace.
Aaron didn’t answer her immediately. Instead, he took a step closer to Nicole.
Nicole held her breath at that, and her heart began to race incontrollably
What did he want to do?
As Aaron’s lips moved closer, something flashed in Nicole’s eyes. It was as if she was about to give in. But she also really wanted to run away.
Yet at that moment, it felt like Aaron had her trapped. She was surrounded by nothing but his presence.
Aaron said lazily, “What if I said I wanted you?
Nicole’s mind went blank in an instant, and for a moment, she lost all ability to think After a briet pause, she slowly came out of her daze.
She took a quick step back to try to keep some distance from him. She frowned deeply. “Aaron, that’s not funny.”
Aaron pulled back and stopped teasing her. “I’ll give you a chance to ask. What do you want to know?”
It was just a normal question, but to Nicole’s ears, it carried intimidation
She found it even harder to look directly at him. What did he want? Could he be trying to escape from Monica’s pursuit?
Nicole immediately dismissed the thought. Monica and Aaron weren’t even in the same league, so he didn’t need Nicole to get rid of Monica.
if he wanted to marry her, the reason surely wasn’t about her. Could the Boyds be his goal?
Nicole’s thoughts were a mess, and she still couldn’t figure it out. When she snapped out of it, she noticed Aaron had already started walking ahead.
Aaron’s expression remained unchanged, but his brows were slightly lifted.
He hadn’t expected Nicole to be even smarter and more cautious than he had imagined.
This would make things even more interesting
That afternoon, Kenneth was transferred to a bospital under Compton Group for more professional care.
Aaron trusted Nicole’s abilities and could tell that she wanted to examine her father. So he took her to Compton Hospital.
After changing into her scrubs, Nicole went into the ICU to check on Kenneth.
Aaron sat casually in the hallway outside. Time passed, and when Nicole walked out of the ICU half an hour later, there was joy on her face.
Her eyes seemed to sparkle as she smiled brightly Aaron glanced at her, and his eyes glinted with amusement.
Caught up in the excitement, Nicole forgot to keep her guard up and rushed to tell Aaron the good news
“My father will wake up soon!”
Hearing the joy in her voice, Aaron replied calmly. “It’s indeed good news.”
“I need to tell Moms Immediately. She’ll be so happy when she hears thus!”
Just as Nicule forked out her phone to make the call, Aaron’s phone rang at the same time. They exchanged a glance, then wordlessly headed off in opposite
directions
