For everyone around her, who didn't want something from her?
Even Caspian had asked her to help him take over several businesses under the Stella Group.
In this world, was there really someone who could be nice to another person and didn't want anything in return?
"You're not a serial killer, are you?" Evie asked in a low voice.
Aron looked at her but didn't smile this time.
When someone treated her well, Evie's first reaction was not to be happy but full of doubts.
She didn't seem to believe that someone would treat her like this.
Aron felt distressed.
"It's not without purpose." Aron's tone was light, "My family has been forcing me to go on blind dates with people I don't like. If I get married, I can avoid a lot of such troubles."
He paused.
Then, Aron added, "It's the same for you. If you get married, you can also avoid a lot of trouble."
Evie lowered her eyes.
She was indeed not young.
She didn't mind being single.
But...
She thought how Aron stood in front of her without hesitation and firmly defended her.
She had to admit that she was timid and cowardly.
She had always hoped that someone around her could treat her like this without hesitation.
Evie looked at him, and her eyes were red again. "Mr. Timberlake, I will treat you very well, but there is a possibility that... I can't fall in love with you."
Caspian broke her heart.
She didn't even know if she still had the ability to fall in love with someone.
"Is that so?" Aron lowered his eyes.
Evie couldn't hide her grievance.
Who could accept a wife who could not love him?

The readers' comments on the novel: My Mommy Became A Billionaire After the Breakup
I am at Chapter 550 and there are almost 2 stories in 1. Aron and Evie's story could very well have been made into another story. Such a waste of time because I am reading for Byron and Athena, not Evie and Aron...
Is there no new updates after this one?...
