Chapter 1589 Falling In Love
When he returned to his car, Alicia, who had wised up this time around, got right into the front passenger seat. After giving her a glance, Aaron leaned over to put on her safety belt for her.
With both of them in close proximity again, to the extent of being able to hear each other’s breath, Alicia was surprised when she thought Aaron wanted to get right into it by kissing her. As the tip of her ears reddened, she closed her eyes in anticipation of his kiss.
Letting out a chuckle, Aaron buckled her properly before returning to his seat. When it dawned upon Alicia that Aaron was just helping her put on her seatbelt instead of kissing her, she felt so embarrassed that she didn’t know where to hide her face.
Along the entire journey, she didn’t dare make eye contact and kept looking out the window instead, leading Aaron to curl his lips.
After driving for an hour, they finally came to a stop. When Alicia alighted together with him and saw that they were at the foot of a hill, she gave Aaron an inquisitive look as to why he brought her there.
Noticing her puzzled expression, Aaron explained, ‘‘We’re here to gaze at the stars.’‘
With that, he brought out a tent and backpack from the trunk before leading Alicia up the hill. Along the way, she offered to carry the backpack for him but Aaron declined.
I’m a man, how can I let a girl carry my stuff?
Once they arrived at the summit, both of them pitched the tent before sitting down on the mat they laid.
This was the first time Alicia went stargazing. She felt as if observing the stars from a high vantage point was an entirely different experience. As she stared at the glistening stars in the night sky, a blissful smile emerged on her face.
When his eyes fell upon that smile of hers, Aaron was mesmerized for a fleeting moment. Just as he recovered his gaze and lay down, Alicia turned toward him when she sensed his movement. The instant she did, their eyes locked, causing her to avert her gaze by reflex and look back up at the stars.
Despite appearing to be stargazing, her mind was being flooded by images of Aaron.
She had not expected him to take her stargazing, for this was what couples do. Aaron and I…
Just the thought of their relationship caused her gaze to dim.
No longer serious about observing the stars, she snuck a glance to her side and saw Aaron with his eyes closed. I’m surprised he can sleep in such conditions. How long has it been since he last slept?
At that moment, she felt sorry for him.
Worried that he would catch a cold, she took out a small blanket from the tent and gently covered him with it. Subsequently, she lay down on her side with her hand supporting her head. With the help of the moonlight and the glimmering stars, she quietly observed his face.
With his porcelain-white skin, high nose bridge, and exquisite features, he was the epitome of the perfect man. There was no way she could resist him. In the nineteen years of her life, this was the first time she had fallen in love with someone.
When she saw how soundly he was sleeping, she couldn’t help but lean closer. Staring at him, her heart began to pound uncontrollably as she closed her eyes and planted her lips on his.
All she wanted was to give him a peck. Much to her surprise, Aaron turned her around and pinned her below him before showering her with a barrage of kisses. Having his lust triggered, he carried her into the tent where amorous moans would soon be heard.
Back in Chanaea, Vinson was sitting on the couch gloomily. Despite all the checkpoints he had set up, none of them returned any clues about his mother’s whereabouts. Filled with frustration, he got to his feet, only to pitch backward suddenly.
