Chapter 1636 Stealing Glances
“They’ll be making a move three days later to undermine you,” Aaron said with an emotionless look on his face.
Nancy’s expression turned gloomy when she found out about Dylan’s plan.
“I understand. Continue to keep a close eye on him and keep me updated if anything happens,” she instructed.
“Will do.”
Aaron then hung up the phone and sped toward the university so he could see Alicia.
He made a beeline for the apartment right after parking the car. For some reason, the sight of her shoes at the door filled his heart with a warm sensation.
“Welcome home!”
Alicia, who was busy cooking in the kitchen, quickly put the stove on low heat when she heard the door open. She then ran out of the kitchen and smiled happily when she saw that it was Aaron.
Aaron froze when he saw her greeting him happily with a spatula in hand. For a brief moment, he felt like she was a housewife welcoming her husband home from work.
Alicia wasn’t sure what he was thinking about, but she felt happy being able to see him every day. She walked up to him and helped take his coat as she said, “What are you doing just standing there? Hurry up and go wash your hands! The food will be ready soon!”
Recalling that she was still cooking something on the stove, she then ran back into the kitchen. For some reason, Aaron’s lips curled into a smile when he saw her like that.
With a grin on his face, he then made his way into the kitchen and stood there watching her cook.
Well… I suppose a calm and peaceful life like this is pretty nice too.
Alicia smiled when she saw him in the kitchen. She plated the final dish and served it up while Aaron washed his hands at the sink. The two of them looked just like a newly-married couple, much to Alicia’s delight, as this was exactly the kind of life she was looking forward to.
After dinner, they were snuggled up on the couch to watch some television. Alicia had been stealing glances at him from time to time but would always retract her gaze whenever he looked her way. She thought he didn’t notice her staring, but he proved her wrong when he said, “You know, you could just stare at me all you want. There’s no need for you to sneak peeks like that.”
Alicia burned bright red after being exposed like that.
“W-Who said I was sneaking peeks at you?” she stammered while blushing like crazy. Deep down inside, she was actually overjoyed as him being aware of her sneaking peeks meant he was paying attention to her.
“Right, of course you weren’t!” Aaron said with a chuckle.
Whoa… This is the first time I’ve seen him smile! I never knew he would look so good when he smiles! Alicia was so captivated that she froze and stared dreamily at him.
Noticing her reaction, Aaron leaned in close and gave her a kiss on the lips.
That caught Alicia off guard, but she soon went along with it and wrapped her arms around his neck.
The two of them were making out rather passionately when Aaron’s phone started ringing on the couch. Not wanting to be interrupted, he declined the call without any hesitation. However, the phone started ringing again when he was about to take things a step further.
He let go of Alicia and frowned deeply as he reached for his phone, but the look of frustration soon turned gloomy when he saw the caller ID.
