My beloved wife novel Chapter 19

Aaron sent his man to pick her up. This time, she was taken directly to his company.

Rita had never been to the building of the Leng Company before. The building of the Leng Company was located in the Financial Street in the city center. Row upon row of buildings seemed to be the peak made of diamonds. It was modern and full of design sense.

When she got out of the car, she couldn't open her eyes in the strong sunlight. The driver led her in and directly to the way to the president's office.

As soon as she appeared in the main hall of the company building, she was greeted by the attention from all directions. Everyone in the company knew that she was the fiancée of President Aaron, and they all looked at her to find out who she was like.

Rita lowered her head and was ready to walk to the VIP elevator. At this time, she heard someone calling her from behind, "Riri."

It was a familiar voice. When she turned around, she saw Magee.

"What... Why are you here?" Rita opened her mouth widely and could not believe her eyes.

"Our company has a cooperation project with the Leng Company, and I'm in charge of this project," said Magee gently. He smiled and pressed the elevator button. "What about you? Are you here to see Mr. Aaron?"

"Yes." She bit her lips and forced herself to calm down. Her heart beat fast, and she felt it was almost going to jump out of her throat. She couldn't help but keep looking at the elevator, thinking why the elevator still didn't come down.

The atmosphere suddenly became awkward.

She didn't even know how to speak to Magee, as she had no idea at all what to say. She was so close to him before, but now they were like two strangers.

"The relationship between you and Aaron... When did this happen? Why didn't you mention that before?" Magee pretended to be relaxed in order to ease the tense atmosphere. He was also curious why things suddenly became like this shortly after he left.

"In recent time, something happened to my family. My father arranged me to have a blind date with Aaron. So that's it."

Rita shrugged. She didn't dare to look up at Magee because she was afraid that she would lose control if she looked at him.

She had been pretending to be strong, but she was unable to stay calm when seeing Magee. She had known him for so many years, and she had missed the chance being with him for so many years.

"I'm sorry, Riri," said Magee, looking at her with an faint light in his eyes. "I just knew what happened to the Gu family. I didn't help. I'm sorry."

His voice was so soft and gentle, like a melodious sound played by violin.
