Chapter 1609 Aaron narrowed his eyes. "I don't think she's against US being together.
More like she's angry at me." Annie thought about what he meant, and she followed Aaron down the hill.
It was almost noon when they reached the apartment.
Even though they drove as fast as they could, the bungee jumping spot was simply too far away from the city.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWhen they entered the apartment, Xante and Sunny were chatting over coffee at the kitchen counter, but there was no sign of Corinne.
Aaron walked in, with Annie's hand in his, and asked, "Where's the boss?" Xante, with the coffee cup in her hand, pointed to the couch with her chin.
Aaron and Annie turned around and found Corinne lying on the couch with her eyes closed. She seemed to have fallen asleep.
"Did you two come from the moon or something? It took you long enough that Corinne even fell asleep!" said Sunny mockingly.
Annie was a bit embarrassed. "Um, we... We went to a scenic spot outside of the city, so that's why we're late..." Aaron did not answer Sunny. He slowly walked to the couch, took a blanket, and put it over Corinne. His movement was light and respectful, nothing too intimate.
Even so, Corinne-awakened by his movement-snapped her eyes wide open.
When their eyes met, Aaron smiled cautiously. "Don't catch a cold, Boss!" Corinne glared at him, rolled her eyes, then pushed him away to sit up.
Aaron did not dare to sit down. He took a few steps back to Annie's side, readied to be lectured.
Corinne glanced at them lazily. "Out with it. How long have you two been dating?" Annie knew she did not do anything that warranted her feeling guilty.
However, at that moment, she could sense the same kind of overbearing pressure she got from Jeremy before. This time, of course, it came from Corinne.

Annie was stunned for a moment before she quickly sat beside Corinne. She was unbelievably relieved that she was not the one Corinne was angry at.
Aaron smiled helplessly at Annie for leaving him to fend for himself. Hs then ee and-said, BbsS: you saw the Invita ih card, didn't you? We're getting married soon. The wedding date has been set." Corinne glared at him. "Have you registered your marriage?” Aaron smiled. "Yeah." Corinne crossed her arms. "And you didn't think to discuss it with me beforehand?"
Aaron lowered his head in shame.
"Sorry, Boss. | didn't want Annie ig be snatched away by\$drke ay So dBoBedb Gel married as soon as possible. You know the feeling, don't you, Boss?" Aaron's explanation made Annie blush again. 'He doesn't have to be so frank with Corinne, does he?" Corinne scoffed. "More like you're worried that I'm going to ruin it for you!" Aaron laughed. "Nothing gets past you, huh, Boss. But for the record, you did badmouth me to Annie before. So there's no way I'm going to lose her again this time."
Corinne looked at him in disgust. "It's not bad-mouthing when it's the {qth Weren't you theondivhd di? take Ela orhiss seriously before? Could you really blame me for telling Annie the truth?"
