Love Began with the First Meeting novel Chapter 889

"The mysterious new Executive President of Leng's Corporations is Aldrich's son. That means this once off emergency meeting of shareholders, only made an inside change. The whole economy of the Island should now, not be affected. ..."

The voice coming from the broadcast on the TV became more serious. Suddenly hearing a word, Ximena reacted looking to the TV and frowned.

The reporter didn't say "illegitimate child", but "son".

Ximena looked at Aaron. His lips had curled and the smile now stayed fixed on his face. Ximena felt a cold shiver run down her back.

Suddenly Aaron's cellphone buzzed. He picked it up without looking at the number and put it near to his ear. After the voice from the other end finished talking, he squinted and ran his hand through his dark shiny hair, saying "I don't like a wise-ass."

Then he hung up the call and stood up with a look of indifference on his face. Aaron walked slowly up the stairs deep in thought.

Ximena stared at Aaron leaving, feeling a strange apathy towards this man for no apparent reason. He looked so sad. She couldn't help wanting to reach out and hug him.

Returning from her daydream, she thought for awhile with distant and clenching her teeth saying to herself with disapproval, 'Ximena Mo, you are insane! Does Aaron need sympathy? If you have any sense, you would have no sympathy towards him, because if you do you are cruel and unsympathetic towards yourself.'

Being angry at herself, Ximena bit another strawberry hard. She took the fruit dish and snuggled up onto the couch and went on following the news broadcast. Suddenly, the news shocked her. Her mouth remained open and the fork dropped to the floor from her hand.

Ximena stared at the TV angrily. Her eyes turned red and her face burnt in rage. She quickly ran towards the stairs case, forgetting to put the bowl of fruit down in her hand.

She had also forgotten to follow all the rules in the villa. Ximena reached the top of the staircase, by leaping two stairs at a time. On the third floor at the door of Aaron's study. Without knocking, she flung the door open and started yelling at Aaron like a crazy woman,"You have sent the news to the media, haven't you?"

Aaron was writing something when Ximena appeared. His hand still held a pen in midair and remained unmoved while he heard her voice. Then his face darkened and looked sunken when he heard the news and it had been delivered in such a manner.

"Is that you who did it?" Ximena asked again. Ximena's became even angrier as she began to speak, her eyes now far more red as though possessed. She couldn't control herself with tears filling her burning eyes. At that moment, she felt as weak as a straw which was fragile to the touch and could be bent in half.

Aaron looked at Ximena and did not understand what she was saying at first.

"It's about what happened between James and me," she repeated again. "Did you send that information to the media?" She asked rebelliously, raising her voice loudly again. She could not help crying out. The message from the broadcast still lingered in her mind, making her heart throbbing with pain.

Looking at Ximena unemotionally who looked shattered and distraught, Aaron replied sadistically in a cold tone,"Yes, it is me. Do you have a problem with it?"

"Aaron Leng!" Ximena yelled painfully. She used his family name 'Leng' purposely, to evoke an emotion out of him. However, she had lost momentary control of herself and couldn't care about the consequences.

Aaron's eyes seemed darker and deeper. He squinted his eyes and started talking louder and quicker. "I can forgive you this time. But if you do it a second time, I will throw you off this building. Do you understand me?"
