Memories Of The Night

Ugh, I shouldn"t worry about him at all! She huffs, pulling away from Aaron with a glare. If he has the energy to tease me, he must be fine!

Aaron lets Katrina s.h.i.+ft away, but keeps a tight hold on her hand. He is afraid to let go of her while they are together.

"Oh!" Colin says suddenly, "Are you Mr. Wilson of the Wilson Enterprise? The one who moved to Abbe recently?" Colin waited for Aaron"s response.

Aaron smiles. "Yes, I"m Aaron Wilson. I didn"t think he would recognize me, so I pretended to be Eric Simon"s grandson."

The confirmation takes Colin by surprise. "I knew you looked familiar! I saw you on TV! I"m so honored to meet you, Mr. Wilson! I never thought I"d meet a celebrity like you in real life! I"m Katrina"s partner, and you can call me Colin."

Colin can"t help raving at the discovery. He had always admired Aaron for becoming a successful businessman at such a young age. Seeing him in action earlier only made him admire Aaron more. His overbearing appearance makes everyone scared of him, yet seeing him with Katrina is something different from what Colin thought.

The way he handled Black Wolf was amazing! We probably wouldn"t have saved Katrina and arrested Black Wolf if not for him…

Glancing at the couple through the rearview mirror, Colin has to ask, "How do you two know each other? We haven"t seen you with Katrina?"

They must be close. Why else would he risk his life for Katrina like that? He seems important to her too… I don"t understand… Didn"t Katrina just break up with Marcellus? Colin"s thought running in her head.

Katrina remains silent, not knowing how to answer Colin"s question. She never told anyone about her horrible experience in Hadley, and she wants to keep it a secret. How do I explain my relations.h.i.+p with Aaron? This looks bad. I can"t tell anybody that I have slept with this man several times.

Aaron breaks the silence and says, "I met Katrina when she went to Hadley. I saw her in the crowd and fell in love instantly. To pursue her, I decided to move to Abbe. It"s a new environment here, but with my reason for moving to this city it gives me a little strength,"

He lets out a sigh and continues, "But by the time I arrived, she had already gotten together with someone else. I had to wait for an opportunity in silence. Fortunately, they eventually broke up, and I began to pursue her again." An honest answer from Aaron shocked both Katrina and Colin.

With a rueful smile, he finishes, "I"m still waiting for her to accept me as her boyfriend. She didn"t like me, that why I put courage to prove her my real intention until such time, she will going to accept me,"

Aaron"s explanation gives Katrina mixed feelings. Although she doesn"t like the way he romanticized their meeting and her experience in Hadley, she feels relieved. No one would have anything bad to say about her with regard to her relations.h.i.+p with Aaron. She pang of pain suddenly cross her heart while realizing Aaron"s words. She feels that she doesn"t deserve her love and affection. He confessed this morning, but she doesn"t give the value of his words.

Colin lets out a dramatic sigh. "Wow, so romantic! Falling in love at first sight. A handsome man like you was every woman"s dream of; I feel envy for Katrina!"

Colin added and wink at her, "Katrina, Mr. Wilson is absolutely in love with you! He followed you all the way from Hadley! He even risked his life for you! Mr. Wilson has done so much for you, don"t be so hard on him!"

He doesn"t understand why Katrina hasn"t accepted Aaron. He"s the ideal man! After what I saw today, even I"d want him to! How could Katrina not accept him? A man from a n.o.ble family and with a high status in society, what else should she ask for?

Colin is suddenly Aaron"s biggest supporter. "Katrina, are you still hung up on Marcellus? Marcellus is a good man, but you"ve already broken up, you have to move on! Mr. Wilson is right in front of you! Don"t let him go!"

Aaron feels good. I left quite an impression on her colleagues tonight. Maybe they"ll help Katrina come to her senses. I should continue pursuing her. I can"t let her go. I wanted to settle down with her. I plan a better future ahead of us. I can"t live without Katrina.

At Colin"s endless nattering, Katrina snaps, "Colin, can you concentrate on driving? Why aren"t we at the hospital yet? Do you want him to bleed to death?"

"Hahaha, we are near the hospital, just relax, it"s just a small wound and Mr. Wilson will not gonna die," Colin tried to crack a joke.

"Yeah, I"m fine, Katrina, don"t worry about me. This is just a small wound, besides I am still breathing properly," Aaron"s eyes gaze at her full of love and affection.

This b.a.s.t.a.r.d was trying to bully me again, and now he had found someone to support him. She thought silently then threw him a murderous look.

She feels a sudden tight grip of her palm from Aaron"s hand. She can"t say another word because Colin was with them. When she glances at him, the devil just gives her a sweet smile.

"Aaron, you shouldn"t risk your life again. I am just a n.o.body while you are a high-rank CEO of a big company," she said just to break the sudden awkward atmosphere between the two of them.

"How could I let you get hurt by that murderer? I can"t bear to see you being held as a hostage," He said.

She glared at him again. Aaron always has his reason to tell when she tries to warn him.
