His Real Wedded Bride novel Chapter 285

"This is my last warning, Stephen. Get out or you will regret it, "

Isla said, pointing her fingers as she stopped Aron from moving closer to Stephen.

"What are you waiting for? Go on. I'm not afraid of you."

Riled up from hearing her words, Stephen responded with a biting remark. "Here's the thing. You can throw yourself at me all you want but I would never like a woman like you. Stay away from me or else I will destroy you."

Stephen hurriedly left right after, clearly afraid of Aron.

With a sigh of relief, Isla loosened her grip on Aron as she watched Stephen leave. Aron, on the other hand, couldn't help but feel upset. "Why did you have to do that? You should not have stopped me from beating him up. That scumbag deserved it!" Aron said, furious that Stephen treated Isla with such disrespect.

"You're acting like a kid! Fighting doesn't solve anything. Always remember that, "

Isla said, scolding him for saying such a thing.

But deep inside, she'd never forgotten about what Joanna had said. She's well-aware of Aron's poor health. She couldn't let him engage in a fistfight out of fear that his condition would only get worse.

"Don't tell me you're not mad at what he said, " Aron said, still seething in rage.

"Stop that. There's no use in getting angry, " she said as she watched Aron closely, noticing his pale face.

"Anger wouldn't solve anything. I'd rather just stay away from him now that we've known who he truly is. Isn't that enough?"

"But…"

Aron stammered, unable to find the right words.

"We should just talk about something else. How have you been?" Isla said, trying to change the subject. She really wanted to know more about Aron's health.

"Your grandma told me something about you being hospitalized. Are you alright? Is there something wrong?"

She asked, worry apparent in her voice.

"Why are you asking? Do you still care about me?"

Aron said, looking at Isla straight in the eye. This made him feel nostalgic about the time they spent together in the past. He remembered Isla would always take good care of him whenever he's not feeling well.

"I…" Isla said, feeling a little flustered.

After all, she already promised herself never to give a damn about Aron until now.

"Well, you are my friend. It's normal to care about your friends, " Isla said, feigning a little cough as she turned away from Aron to hide her embarrassment.

Aron, amused to see Isla embarrassed, couldn't help but tease her.

"Are you sure? Are we really just friends?"

He said, moving closer as he whispered in her ear.

Annoyed by what he's suggesting, Isla quickly turned her back at him, not expecting that he'd gotten so close.

"You…" she stuttered, his nearness catching her off guard.

"Why are you so near me?"

Flushed with embarrassment, she tried to push him away but to no avail.

Aron took a step forward, his mouth descending firmly to capture her lips in a light kiss. As he noticed that she wasn't resisting, he took possession of her mouth, his lips completely claiming hers.

He couldn't contain his joy for he had been waiting for four years for this moment to finally happen.

On the other hand, Isla was taken aback, clearly at a loss. She suddenly felt as if she's paralyzed, too weak to push Aron away.

All coherent thoughts seemingly left her mind the moment Aron's lips met hers. He skillfully slid his tongue between her lips, deepening the kiss. Isla's body jolted in surprise as their tongues intertwined, making her push Aron away. "What do you think you're doing?" she yelled, suddenly aware of her surroundings.

"Stop trying to repress your feelings. I know you're still in love with me, " Aron said, trying to make a point.
