Love Began with the First Meeting novel Chapter 917

Thinking about it, Ximena turned her eyes to Aaron without realizing it, wondering what exactly he was planning to do. Sensing her odd gaze, Aaron didn't have any reaction, letting her look at him with her puzzled face.

All this time, he had tried his best to be nice to Ximena because he wished she could be touched and tell him about her pregnancy without being asked. But now he grew impatient and couldn't wait for her confession. What he wanted now was a family, a real family and a love-filled one. "Since you just became the Executive President, aren't you busy?" Ximena asked him without consideration.

"Aren't you afraid that some people will protest against you?" she added. Not expecting her question, Aaron raised his eyebrows and asked back calmly, "Who would dare do that?"

'Yes, right. Who would dare to protest against him?

The new Executive President, His Highness of the dark world...

Who would dare get in conflict with such a powerful man?' Ximena thought silently. As she couldn't find the exact words to respond to him, Ximena just dropped down her head and went on eating. She felt lame to think about such a foolish topic.

Sitting there with Aaron and his deep dark eyes, she felt uneasy in her mind. She felt something was wrong but could not put her mind into it. However, she never minded it. Since she knew she was pregnant, she always had mood swings like this thus. She thought it was just another surge of mood swing. Fighting the urge to caress her belly in front of Aaron, Ximena shut off all the negatives thoughts in her mind and started to assure herself that everything was going to be alright for her and for her baby.

Meanwhile, Carrie Zhang returned to their house. Angrily, she took out a box from under the bed and opened it carelessly. Inside the box, there was a sheaf of papers folded neatly with one pile placed on the top of the other.

Her face looked cruel and crazy when she was turning the papers one by one until she found what she had been looking for. Carrie stared at the paper for a while and a cold smile found its way to her face.

Reading the paper several times and making sure she had memorized it clearly, Carrie took a steel container and burned all papers into ashes.

After all the papers were completely burned, she dialed out a number on her phone as her smile became even colder. After a long while, no one picked up the phone. Determined as she was, she was unwilling to give up and dialed it again. Gradually she panicked and felt pained inside.

Finally, after several rings, the phone was picked up. Carrie's hopes suddenly went up and she opened her eyes widely.

"Mr. President," Carrie Zhang said with her most sincere efforts, "Please forgive my husband."

Hearing her plead, Aaron frowned and replied coldly, "I'll give you three days. If you can return all the money Claude has diverted from the Leng's Corporations..."

Carrie's hand holding the phone was trembling, "How can you say that?

You know it clearly that we don't have such amount of money. And you know how the money has been used. It was because of my..." Before she could finish talking, the phone was hung off.
