Chapter 290 See You Tomorrow

I didn’t know why I looked at Aaron or why I felt so nervous.

Everything I did was justified.

So what was he guilty of?

Aaron glanced at my phone lightly, “FaceTime call from Colston? Do you need me to leave for a moment?”

He sounded pretty considerate. But I said no.

“This is your house, and I came to you for something. Nothing happened between us.”

Aaron raised his eyebrows and nodded slightly: “You came to your ex-boyfriend’s house on Christmas Eve. You had a simple dinner and drank some champagne. Nothing happened. then you choose fix it, and I don’t mind saying hello too.”

My face darkened and I took a few steps back.

“Forget it. Just sit there and don’t move or make a sound.” I looked around and soon found that a room here was very similar to my hotel room.

I quickly closed the door, leaned against the bed, and answered the FaceTime call.

“Merry Christmas Eve!” Colston’s celebratory voice appeared along with the image.

He was sitting on the sofa in a dark green Christmas sweater with a Santa hat on his head. Two elderly people, a man and a woman, were leaning against him, looking at me together on the phone.

“Merry Christmas Eve!” I responded with a smile, greeting them, “Colston, are these your parents?

Merry Christmas, Mr. and Mrs. Adenauer. I’m so sorry I didn’t get a chance to see you.”

On the other end of the phone, the Adenauers were friendly and immediately said he was fine.

“Mom, Dad, I’ll talk to Olive alone.” Colston stood up with his phone in hand with a smile.

He went up the stairs and came to a bedroom.

After closing the door, the merry Christmas carols that were playing in the downstairs living room suddenly disappeared.

“Honey, are you alone in the hotel now? Where is your friend Nick? The smile on Colston’s face was finally replaced by concern. He looked at the camera, frowning.

“Don’t worry Colston.” I tried to comfort him, “The problem was resolved, much faster than I expected.

It’s just that his work in the lab has been delayed too long, so he hurried to catch up after having dinner with me.”

“All went well?” Colston had a surprised look on his face, “So fast!”

“Yeah.” I thought of the owner of the house sitting in the living room at this time. I hesitated for a moment, but quickly made up my mind.

I looked at Colston. “Aaron helped us.”

At first I was hesitant because I was afraid the truth would unhappy. But he believed that honesty was crucial in a relationship.

“I don’t know when he returned to the United States. Anyway, after she showed up. David stopped bothering us soon. He even moved out of the apartment where he lived with Nick.

In the image, Colston froze for a moment.

I wasn’t sure if it was a network delay or his actual response.

“In order to solve this big problem smoothly, I think Christmas this year is very significant.” I flashed a bright smile, “So you don’t have to worry about me. I’m going to bed early to beat the jet lag.”

“Are you sure you don’t need me to stay with you for a while?” Colston looked at me concerned, “Olive, I miss you so much.”

“I miss you too. But it is not necessary. It’s Christmas once a year. Hurry up and go spend some time with your family.”

“Well then.” Colston pursed his lips, “But since the problem was resolved so quickly, can I see you again sooner?”

I gave him an affirmative look.

“But maybe it will take a while.” I added, “I’m running out of time and haven’t had time to meet up with my other friends.”

After a brief chat, Colston finally hung up on the video call.

I lowered the hand that was holding the phone and let out a long sigh of relief.

Rubbing my sore arm, I opened the door and got out.

“Do you need me to massage your shoulders?” Aaron’s voice suddenly rang over my head.

I jumped, “Did you hear our call?”

Aaron lazily leaned against the bedroom door with his hands in his pockets and looked in, “I just wanted to go back to my room and change my clothes.”

I turned my head in surprise and looked at the bedroom, which was much like a hotel room, with no sign of occupancy.

“Your bedroom?”

“Yeah.”

There were many things I wanted to say in my heart, but my instincts made me choose to keep quiet.

I moved out of his way and went back to the living room.

Aaron left shortly after entering. It was just that he didn’t understand why he insisted on exchanging a black shirt for another black shirt at this time.

But it didn’t matter.

“Oh, what did you ask me just now?” I remembered that he seemed to ask me something before the video call.

Aaron lowered his eyes and said lightly, “Nothing. It’s getting late. I’ll take you back.”

“Wait.” I stopped him from getting up to take his coat, “You haven’t told me what you traded with David.

Why did he say that it was a loss on my part, but he would get everything back from you?” ”

I asked him again, “Aaron, you helped me and I am very grateful. But I don’t want you to be blackmailed or anything.”

“When a girl has a boyfriend, she shouldn’t worry too much about her boyfriend. Have fun with your new boyfriend. ninjanovel.com ” Aaron still seemed calm. He narrowed his eyes, but refused to meet my eyes.

“Aaron, I’m not someone to owe favors to.” He was a bit annoyed by his attitude.

What was wrong with him?

“Do you want to return the favor?” Aaron finally looked at me.

“Yeah.” My face was full of seriousness, “I don’t want to owe you indefinitely all the time.”

Hearing my words, Aaron looked down and chuckled.

He kept his leaning posture unchanged, but I felt a certain change. in your aura.

“Spend this Christmas with me,” she said weakly, “later I’ll tell you about me and David.”

I almost got pissed off when I heard his ridiculous request.

“I’m not kidding, Aaron.”

“Me neither.” She smiled slightly and looked at me calmly.

His smile was subtle.

There was a silent confrontation between us.

Aaron suddenly gasped softly, ninjanovel.com as if thinking of something, “Don’t get me wrong. I mean that literally.”

Speaking of this, he even laughed a little, “I won’t do anything to you.”

Somehow I felt that his explanation seemed to be hinting at something.

“I was not wrong!” I immediately retorted, ninjanovel.com but what I got in return was raised eyebrows from him.

I was annoyed by his attitude! She was annoying.

“Well.” I tried to make myself seem calmer than him, “I can spend this Christmas with you. Then you tell me everything.”

Aaron raised his eyebrows, like he was a little surprised that I agreed so easily.

“However,” I smiled, “it’s Christmas Eve and technically it’s not Christmas yet. So see you tomorrow, Mr. Morris.”
