She spoke with a pitiful, begging look, but in a tough tone. As she was afraid that the shrewd Aaron might find out something, she could only act and attempt not to be doubted by him.
"If you want to go home, then we'll go home," Aaron said indifferently.
Despite his indifferent tone, Ximena felt her violently pounding heart was now beating regularly. Biting her lower lip, she nodded, simply letting Aaron come over and took her in his arms out of the hospital.
Along the way, none of them spoke a word and they were just quiet on their way to the villa. Although Ximena felt a little uncomfortable in her waist, she didn't say anything, just secretly biting her teeth and bearing the pain.
Then, Aaron gave her a cold glance. Finding out that she was trying to bear her pain, he just snorted and waited for her to complain, hearing nothing from her, however, he just drew back his attention to the road. Yet unable to contain his worry, he suddenly stretched out his arm and pulled Ximena towards him. As a result, she leaned on to him due to inertia.
Without a squeezing pressure on her waist and buttocks, she suddenly felt relaxed and looked at Aaron with doubt in her eyes. However, Aaron was avoiding her glance and just looked out of the window.
There was something flowing slowly in her heart, some kind of unspeakable warmth as she sensed Aaron's thoughtful care. Ximena wanted to sit up as she was not used to his care, but she was pressed back by Aaron. In the end, she didn't try to resist his help. After all, leaning on him was much more comfortable than sitting on the seat by herself.
After a while, she was surprised that they arrived at the villa so fast, like within a blink of an eye. She wondered why on ordinary days, that she had always wanted the car to arrive at the villa as fast as it would, but still, it took time. Now, however, Ken drove quite fast or she was just too occupied with Aaron that she didn't notice the time. With the persistent pain, Ximena bit her lips while Aaron frowned and looked at the outside of the window.
After the car came to a stop, Aaron got out of the car first, and Ximena also moved her body and opened the door and stretched out one of her legs. Just as she was about to get up by holding the seat… She was lifted up all of a sudden.
Aaron walked to the villa indifferently with Ximena in his arms. Ken was left behind, standing alone in front of the car and just looked at their backs; a touch of doubt crawled into his eyes.
Inside their room, Aaron put Ximena down on the bed gently and said coldly, "Don't walk around these days. Have your rest." Finishing off with his reminders, he turned and prepared himself to walk out.
"Aaron!" Ximena couldn't help but call out his name. However, hardly had the words left her mouth that she regretted what she had done. Yet, seeing Aaron stop his footsteps, she had to say something, "Well, hum… Thank you."
In a cold tone, Aaron turned a little and looked back slightly. Snorting lightly, he said, "Do I need your thanks?" After that, he turned around and walked toward the door without looking back.
When he closed the door, Aaron turned around and caught a glimpse of it. With a gloomy face, he then went downstairs and walked out of the villa.
"Your Highness!" With a low bow, Ken hurriedly opened the car door when he saw Aaron come out.
With quick strides, Aaron got on the car. After Ken got in, he ordered solemnly, "To the villa of Zhuang Family."
Having a glimpse of his master from the rearview mirror, Ken nodded and started the car.

"There is nothing to worry about. That kind of woman has rough and thick skins. She won't get hurt so easily," at the villa of Vivi's family, Zoey said calmly, trying to comfort Vivi as she looked at her worried look. "My brother won't do anything bad to you because of her."
Despite Zoey's assurance, Vivi's dark eyes were still filled with incomprehensible mood. Then she smacked her lips and took a sip of the hot tea.
