Lifelong Companion novel Chapter 27

It was already one o'clock in the morning when Aaron finished his work.

When he returned home tiredly, he unexpectedly found that there was a lamp in the originally dark floor.

Although it was not bright, it was particularly warm-hearted.

"Is that woman still awake?"

With a trace of doubt, Aaron changed his shoes in the vestibule quickly and kicked up the stairs.

Melissa stood there, scratching the back of her head and thumbing through Aaron's books on the bookshelf.

"What are you doing?"

Dong

Before Aaron could finish his sentence, Melissa was taken aback. With a shiver of her hand, she dropped the book to the ground.

Being at a loss, Melissa stared at Aaron with a deathly pale face, unable to utter a single word.

Aaron neither scolded her nor questioned her. After hanging his jacket on the hanger by the desk, Aaron slowly walked to Melissa and said, "what are you doing?"

Melissa quickly crouched down and put the book back. She shook her head and denied everything.

Melissa lowered her head, staring her tiptoes, and fidgeting her fingers uneasily.

Aaron sneered and turned around to press the switch in the corner. In an instant, the lights in the study room were all on.

Staring at the terrified girl, Aaron said slowly, "you can read whatever you want in the future, but you don't have to behave like a thief. I've never seen a thief turn on the night lights when he makes mistakes. Don't make it sound like I'm even unwilling let you turn on the light. "

Then, before Melissa could react, Aaron put the phone into the pocket of her pajamas and said, "Reward you. Cut the crap. "

The soothing atmosphere was ruined by Aaron himself.

He turned around and left Melissa alone.

The smile on Melissa's face was forced. She clenched her hands and said in a hoarse voice, "reward? Do you still treat me as a toy? "

Tears were welling up in her eyes for a long time.

In the bathroom, Aaron turned the shower to maximum. Looking up, he felt more restless.

Aaron wanted to tell Melissa that the phone was bought for her, but Aaron didn't know why. What he said always meant very differently.

"Damn it!"

Aaron cursed. His face grew gloomy.

On the other hand, Aaron felt a little unaccustomed to be home without smelling a familiar scent at night.

He had almost fallen asleep with a pillow of Melissa in his sleep these days. They were almost the same person. Now when Melissa suddenly disappeared from his sight, Aaron was not used to it.

In the following one month, Aaron spent almost every minute staying beside the Melissa.

Maybe it was good to mock her, or maybe it was also good to have compassion for her.
