Love Began with the First Meeting novel Chapter 960

Vivi had not expected that Aaron would tell her to leave as soon as he sat down. Hearing that, she felt very sad and her heart ached. She nearly burst into tears instantly.

"Brother..."

Before Zoey could say anything else, Aaron's razor-sharp stare cut her off. It scared her to the bones, and it made her swallow everything she was about to say.

On the other hand, Vivi was trying her best not to talk against what Aaron did. In the end, she said,"Zoey, I'm leaving..." She tried to hide her hurt with a smile, but she just looked like she was in pain.

Zoey could do nothing but nod and see Vivi off with her eyes. After that, she couldn't help but mumble about how she was disrespected.

"What did that man say to Ximena earlier this evening?" Aaron asked straightforwardly, his stare still razor-sharp. There was not the least emotion on his face.

Hearing that, Zoey was stunned for a while. Then she opened her eyes wide and asked,"How did you know that?" Seeing that Aaron was not going to answer her question, sulkily, she said,"I was a little curious, okay? I only wanted to find some faults in her..." While saying that, she tried to wear a smile, but her face looked stiff and very fake. Finding that Aaron wasn't falling for her act and was waiting for her explanation, she continued,"I heard that man say that he is quite familiar with her parents and that her parents loved her very much. I didn't find anything important in what he said."

"That's all?" Aaron sneered slightly.

"Hmm," Zoey answered with a nod. However, very soon something came to her mind. Opening her eyes wider, she said,"Wait! it just occurred to me that he gave her something. It seemed that he also gave her a business card or something like that... I can't remember anything else. There was nothing strange, but that man mentioned that he had not been able to approach her probably because you had prevented him from doing so."

"Hmm," Aaron replied in a low voice. A glint of anger could be seen in his eyes.

He knew that the members of the organization were best at fighting the psychological battle. They were able to bring others down based on their different mental states. If that man had told Ximena about the death of her parents in a way that was not meant to harm her mentally, perhaps she would not have reacted like this. However, he had told her that her parents had loved her very much. 'That was exactly why she behaved that way after seeing those photos and reports, ' he thought.

Seeing that Zoey was of no help to him anymore, he stood up, saying,"You better go back home as early as possible..." With his cold eyes he stared at Zoey. "It's not good for a girl to stay outside so late at night." Just as he was taking his first step, Zoey called out for him.

"Hey! I didn't drive by myself to come here... Aren't you going to give me a ride?" Zoey asked, looking at Aaron's back with her eyes blank. "Brother, brother, brother..." Finding that her brother ignored her thoroughly, she groaned,"What are you doing? You came to meet me, you drove Vivi away, now you won't even give me a ride home?"

After leaving the cafe, Aaron got on his car. Instead of starting it immediately, he stared at the road before him, his eyes full of rage and sadness. He felt like his heart was clutched by something, and that was not allowing him to breath.

He realized that no matter how he would exact his revenge on those people, it would be impossible to change the fact that Ximena had known how her parents had died. As the stress took over him, Aaron slowly leaned on his seat, and closed his eyes.

'How ridiculous! What a contrived plot!' he thought. The person he wanted to start a family with turned out to be his enemy!
