Lifelong Companion novel Chapter 15

When the car was in a dead silence, Aaron's phone suddenly vibrated.

He reached out one hand to take out his cellphone. After inadvertently glancing at the Caller ID, he put on the Bluetooth and quickly answered the phone. "Hello? What's up, Sean?"

Generally speaking, Sean would not make this call if there was no emergency. But today he made it through the internal call, which meant there was something urgent.

There was a note of urgency in the voice of Sean, and then he quickly held his phone to ask, "Aaron, where are you now?"

His question raised some doubts in Aaron. After a pause, he replied, "I was just about to go back to the old house. What's up?"

Today was that woman's birthday. He just came back with Melissa to dispel her boring thoughts. Lest she every day tries every means to find a woman for him to carry on the family line.

This was also the reason why when Aaron ran into Melissa, he kept asking her whether she was sent by his mother.

Sean said something to Aaron. After talking for about one minute, Aaron nodded and responded, "I know. You first look at the people. I will be right there soon."

Then he hung up the phone in a hurry, reached out his hand and pushed Melissa. Without any nostalgic feeling, he said, "Don't say anything. You first go back by yourself."

Before Melissa could figure out what was going on, she was turned from the car and the door was slammed shut by Aaron, who disappeared from her sight quickly.

Stunned, Melissa stared at the broad and strange street and felt somehow uneasy.

Without thinking too much, she rushed in the direction that Aaron had left.

She didn't want the feeling of being abandoned.

Tears were welling up in her eyes. Melissa quickened her pace to chase the man while yelling, "Aaron! Aaron!"

The name was too conspicuous, but Melissa didn't realize what she was doing at all. She just didn't want to be abandoned by instinct.

But she was no match for the car. Just in the blink of an eye, Melissa had stopped and gasped miserably on the spot.

Melissa clasped her hand over her chest. For the first time, her eyes were filled with despair.

Her face was pale, and her lips mumbled for a long time. "Don't leave me alone... Please don't leave me alone... "

There was no reply.

Melissa’s eyelids sunken slightly, and her thick lashes quivered lightly. Besides, the tears in Melissa’s eyes would roll down at any moment.

All of a sudden, noises reached the ears of disappointed Melissa.

"Yes, it's her! I've read the news before. She was the woman who was bought by Aaron. It's said that she's an undergraduate. Reporter, see? I have provided some information. Do I have any money for the clue?"

"Okay, next time you have such good news, remember to call me at any time. I will definitely give you a lot of money!"

Then a group of people ran over quickly. Horror was written on the face of Melissa. Her body was a few paces faster than her mind. When they were approaching, she directly turned around and ran away.

"Stop! Catch her! Don't let her go. It's not easy to get the news about Aaron. How can we let her go so easily?"
