Reborn for Revenge or A Second Chance At Vengeance

Chapter 186 Not As She Had Imagined Aurelia didn't feel much like eating and made up an excuse. "An old college friend found out I was here and invitedto catch up. I'll head over there right away. You guys go ahead and eat." Sometimes, disliking someone wasn't because they were bad, but because they gave off a vibe that made one feel uneasy, prompting one to keep their distance out of respect.

The figure of Zoe standing before her was just like that. In fact, when she first saw her, she had a rather positive impression.

However, after meeting a few times, she realized that they were not on the swavelength and couldn't really get along.

She was afraid it would upset her digestion if they dined together.

With a calm gaze, Matthew looked at Aurelia, a touch of cold indifference in his eyes. "Classmate?" he questioned.

"Right, I had arranged it when I got off the car earlier, just didn't get the chance to tell you yet." "What a shame," Zoe interjected.

She wished fervently that Aurelia would leave so she could have a peaceful meal alone with Matthew. Glancing at his wristwatch, Matthew said, "I have a meeting coming up soon, you'll have to eat on your own." Then he said to Aurelia, "I'll take you there." And so, Matthew too, left.

The hospital room fell silent once again, leaving Zoe without a chance to speak.

Just a moment ago...

Matthew seemed as indifferent as ever to everything around him, but it was clear that he had. been watching Aurelia all along.

"Mdm. Stella, do you think Matthew likes Aurelia?" Stella had been observing from the sidelines and it was clear to her. At her age, there wasn't much she couldn't discern. Zoe had feelings for Matthew, but it seemed that Matthew only had eyes for Aurelia. His feelings toward Zoe were more akin to that of a sibling.

"He must be fond of her," Stella spoke, weaving a well-intended fib.

Although Matthew was known for not easily showing his emotions, he seemed to be a perfect match for Aurelia.

314 PM Chapter 186 Not As She Had Imagined The light in Zoe's eyes dimmed.

Even Stella could tell.

"What would you like to have for lunch?” Stella asked.

Finished Zoe didn't have much of an appetite. Shaking her head, she said, "Whatever, I don't really feel like eating anything right now." "All right, I'll go ask the doctor what you're allowed to eat now," Stella said, showing great dedication.

Before getting into the car, Matthew asked Aurelia where she was going.

Aurelia had merely made up an excuse on the spot, she hadn't anticipated that Matthew would offer to take her there.

"You have a meeting this afternoon, I'll be fine taking a taxi." She decided to devote her afternoon to the beach and the seaside.

She was set to leave the next day. Within just a few days, she had grown fond of Kenfort and found it difficult to part ways.

Suddenly, Matthew's demeanor hardened. "Get in the car." "There's really no need...

"Let's go for lunch," Matthew said, his gaze fixed on her.

With just one glance, all of Aurelia's lies were exposed.

This individual was truly at a loss not working as a criminal investigator. How on earth did he figure out she was lying? Without another word, she got into the car.

Once the two of them got into the car, neither of them said a word. Aurelia didn't explain why she had to find a reason to leave, and Matthew didn't ask.

They visited a Thymion restaurant.

Once seated, Matthew was the first to break the silence. "You don't like Zoe?" "It's not that I dislike her, it's just that I don't particularly enjoy spending too much tin the hospital. Moreover, if I'm around, Ms. Souza could feel restrained." Aurelia felt that this response was spot on.

Sthings didn't need to be spelled out.

She truly didn't like Zoe..

Chapter 186 Not As She Had Imagined However, she still had to continue living with Matthew in the future. All they needed was to maintain appearances.

Matthew gave her a profound look. "Her mother lost her life saving me. Taking care of her is simply fulfilling her mother's last wish." Aurelia was taken aback by Matthew's sudden explanation and for a moment, she was unsure how to respond. "Yes, you should do that," she finally said.

Thankfully, the food was soon served.

As dish after dish was served, Aurelia was eating while purposefully ignoring the confusing thoughts that were clouding her mind.

Thymion cuisine wasn't half bad. She hadn't eaten it often before, and she vaguely recalled Nancy taking her there once.

After lunch, Matthew had to return to the hotel as he indeed had a video conference to attend. Meanwhile, Aurelia headed to the beach near the hotel.

By evening, Aurelia received a message from Matthew. He wouldn't be joining her for dinner as initially planned. There had been a sudden change in Zoe's condition, which necessitated another surgery. Consequently, he had to rush to the hospital.

After dinner, Aurelia visited the pedestrian street she had been to before. There were numerous snacks available, and she leisurely strolled and nibbled her way through, checking in at various spots.

Around ten o'clock in the evening, she returned to the hotel, but Matthew had not yet cback.

She then tidied up her suitcase.

Perhaps Matthew wouldn't accompany her to the airport tomorrow.

Around two in the morning, Matthew returned.

The sound of the door opening was very faint.

However, Aurelia never slept too deeply in the hotel, even the faintest noise would stir her awake.

She looked toward the door. "You're back?" "Did I wake you? Go back to sleep, I'll go take a shower." Matthew's voice was slightly hushed, carrying a hint of tenderness in the late-night ambiance.

Aurelia responded with a hum, then comfortably flipped over and continued to sleep.

Roughly half an hour had passed when Matthew climbed into bed.

When he held Aurelia, he gently planted a kiss on her cheek.

Chapter 186 Not As She Had Imagined Finished Upon waking, she wasn't sure why she had suddenly becalert from her sleep, but she was distinctly aware that he had climbed into bed.

In his eyes, she should have already been sound asleep.

So, his kiss....

Aurelia's heart trembled slightly.

She was probably overthinking it.

The steady rhythm of Matthew's breathing reached her ears quickly. Had he fallen asleep so soon? Had she not witnessed his bouts of insomnia in the past, she would have doubted his claims now, suspecting he was merely playing the sympathy card.

Lost in thought, she drifted back into sleep.

Someone drifted off to a sweet dream in the dead of night, while others found it increasingly difficult to fall asleep as the night grew late.

At the Leedon residence, in Melanie's room, a passionate intimate encounter had just concluded.

Glancing at the time, Aaron said, "It's three in the morning, let's get ssleep. We have to go to the hospital tomorrow morning." No one was home, so he and Melanie ended up sharing a room. Perhaps it was because they had just gotten together, their need for each other was quite intense.

Having just taken a bath, Melanie returned to her bed, casually scrolling through her phone on Twitter. Suddenly, she cacross Aurelia's post.

Upon seeing that Aurelia was vacationing in Kenfort, her eyes widened in surprise.

"Aaron! Can you believe it? Aurelia I isn't in Jacaster, she's totally ignoring us and didn't even go to the hospital to take care of mom. She's actually gone off to Kenfort for a vacation! She's utterly heartless, so cruel!" Originally, Aaron was somewhat tired and sleepy. However, upon hearing Melanie's words, he immediately turned his attention to her phone.

It was a post from Aurelia's Twitter, the cover photo displayed was taken in Kenfort. It was a beach: photo by the sea, with an exceptionally beautiful view.

His face suddenly turned stormy. "I thought she was just mad at us, it's understandable given we've neglected her in the past. But I never expected that she would actually go off on a trip without a care for our mother's wellbeing!" The we've neglect how much content is on novelenglish.net! "Aaron, she really dislikes me. Why don't you message her and give her a piece of your mind?" Melanie suggested, her eyes twinkling with the idea.

Reborn for Revenge.
