He even got control of Leng's Corporations without any effort at all. However, he was not happy about it. He had paid unnecessary attention to James's petty games in the end. Sometimes Aaron thought about things connected with Leng's Corporations. He wonder...Did he want Leng's Corporations? Or would he just want the man to face him and accept him? Maybe to acknowledge what he had done without having his father's clout to back him up, as his other siblings had.
"Your Highness," Ken walked in with an invitation in his hand. Aaron then put it on the table and continued his report, "Gale is waiting for your reply outside," Ken said quickly.
Aaron frowned at the invitation and opened it. The vigorous strokes appeared before him. He could feel the writer expressing emotional feelings with the ups and downs of the strokes from the handwriting. Reading the words in the invitation, Aaron opened his eyes wider and his gaze became sharper and more intense.
Ken had been with Aaron for a long time now and he was one of the few people who knew about Aaron's childhood. He also knew Aaron extremely well. Seeing Aaron's expression, Ken knew that he was absolutely vexed.
Aaron stood up and walked out of the room with the invitation in his hand. When he passed through the living room, Ximena was making tea. The two stared in combat with each other, and neither of them spoke at all.
From that day on, there seemed to be something subtle and secretive between them. They saw each other far more frequently, but both of them tried to ignore each other.
Aaron stopped in his tracks, while Ximena also froze holding a teapot in her hand. They stood in front of each other and gazed into each other's eyes. No one knew what the other was thinking nor the deep secrets that lay in their eyes.
Mol's Happy Marriage Life
When she arrived in XK under the mentor-ship of Shirley, Molly had become familiar with the stars. Shirley's favourite one was Park Shin Chun.
Later, they had agreed to go for a live audience. However, not long after that, Molly got pregnant and the plan aborted, and they never did go in the end. Anyway, Molly was more like a young girl in adolescence under the influence of the mother-in-law. She was now involved in matters of everything a teenager was experiencing.
"Oppa, kajimah*..." Molly's affectionate voice was heard.
(*TN: "Love, don't leave me behind..." in Korean)
Brian's hand stopped while he was signing his name on the document. He raised his head with his eyebrows furrowed. Molly was holding an iPad on the couch, watching a South Korean TV Soap series.
He went on frowning. As time went on Molly's belly grew gradually larger, she could not move around easily anymore. So he had delayed his plans to stay with her. Molly had nothing to do and was bored, so she kept herself busy by following Shirley's advice. She was now watching South Korean soap series.
"What's the name?" asked Brian "Something like 'My Love from the Star'*, '' Molly answered.
(*TN: My Love from the Star is a South Korean romantic fantasy television series. The story is about an alien who landed on Earth in the Joseon Dynasty and, 400 years later, falls in love with a top actress in the modern era.) "Is it about an alien arriving on the earth?" Brian asked irritated while wracking his brain about the movie's content.
He gazed at Molly. But Molly was still preoccupied in her story and her eyes were becoming tearful. Brian was frustrated and this annoyed him intently, but he kept it to himself. He knew a pregnant woman was very emotional. 'Is that guy Do Min Joon* or something like that? Is he as handsome as I am? Is he as cool as I? Is he as rich as I am? Is he as learned as I am?'
