Love Began with the First Meeting novel Chapter 940

When she had woken up in the morning and had found that the cold, hard jade seal had turned into this beautiful bracelet around her wrist, she had felt incredibly happy. Perhaps she was happy because he had not given up on her. He had put much thought into it by giving the jade seal to her in another form.

She had lived at the bottom of the society for so long a time that she was afraid of going back to that dark life again.

"Aaron, thank you..." Ximena mumbled; her words sounded so empty. Hearing her, Aaron's hands froze on his keyboard. She continued in a low voice, "My relationship with James was too flatulent and unreal. It was not so much that I loved him, as I hoped that someone would take me away from that shitty life. Because of that, I believed firmly in our love."

Hearing her self-analysis of the past, Aaron's eyes were covered with a dark cloud. "What about me?" he asked. 'Ximena, if you dare say a word I might not like listening to, I will kill you myself, ' he thought.

With a faint smile on her lips, Ximena withdrew her gaze from the window and looked at Aaron. She answered, "Your Highness, you have been the king of darkness for so long, and now, you've become the CEO of Leng's Corporations, the master of light for millions. What should such a man mean to me?"

Aaron's handsome face was overcast with a layer of bloody haze. With a sneer on his lips, he said slowly, "It should mean that I am the one who can take you to paradise or push you into hell any time I wish."

"Yes, you could..." Ximena said with an enchanting smile. "And yet, you gave me this." She raised her wrist and shook the bracelet. It sparkled in the rays of the sun that entered the car.

Aaron glanced at the bracelet and then looked at Ximena. With a smile, she said, "Maybe we..." She paused as her smile became brighter. At that moment, the car stopped in front of her fashion design shop. Ximena shrugged and said, "We're here." She gave Aaron an attractive smile once again and got off the car arrogantly.

Aaron's face turned stony. As he watched her walk away from him arrogantly, Aaron felt the urge to pull her back into the car. 'That woman is annoying like hell. How dare she make fun of me!' he thought.

The air inside the car could not have been colder. Turning his head to take a final look at Ximena, who had already entered the shop, Ken grinned privately and asked, "Your Highness, are we going straight to the east coastline or to the company?" Ximena's shop was only a street away from Leng's Corporations. The properties in this area were extremely expensive, yet Aaron had given her a building with two floors which had a total area of about four hundred square meters for her customized tailoring. As an investment plan, it was not at all cost-effective.

"To the company," Aaron said shortly, as he withdrew his sight from the shop. He looked at the stock market analysis chart on the screen, but he couldn't process any information in his head. He was distracted.

Seeing Ximena, her employees rushed to greet her and question her about her health. After a while, the shop manager came to her with two designs. While pointing at the drawings with his finger, he said, "Miss Mo, these are the final sketches for Mrs. Zhao and Mrs. Li. Mrs. Li wants a slit here and Mrs. Zhao wants a round collar."

"All right. I'll change them," Ximena replied as she took the sketches from the manager. She walked into her office. She hadn't been here for many days. As soon as she entered, her spirits returned to her at once.
