Chapter 177

Monique wanted to say something, but I held her hand and stopped her. Then I looked at Aaron and

said, "Sure!"

I dragged Monique to sit down. The woman in green gracefully placed a porcelain cup in front of us.

She smiled and introduced herself to us as Yana Henry, and then she said, "Please have a taste!"

Monique didn't move at all. She looked at Aaron and said angrily while she was still holding onto my

hand, "Aaron, just get straight to the point!"

"Have some tea first," Aaron said with a hint of coldness in his tone.

I didn't touch the cup of tea. Instead, I looked at him and said, "It's getting late, just say what you want.

Having tea at this time would only make it hard for us to fall asleep."

Yana smiled sweetly without saying anything.

Aaron said with a hint of mockery, "I thought that since you left your husband's company in such a

hurry, you would be too troubled to fall asleep at night. I can't believe you're this calm."

His gaze fell on my baby bump, and his tone became rougher, "You're five months pregnant now, am I

right? It isn't too late to get rid of the baby."

"Aaron, are you out of your mind?" Monique cursed. She was afraid of him, but she also hated him to

the core.

Aaron frowned. He looked up at the man in black standing by the side and said, "She's too noisy. Get

her out for some dessert."novelbin

The man walked to Monique's side and gestured to her to walk out.

Monique was terrified, and she glared at Aaron to ask, "What do you want?"

Aaron didn't answer. He only looked at me and said, "Let's just have a small chat before sending you

girls home safely. Arianna, I mean no harm. It's just that I miss you a lot."

Glancing at Monique, he sank his eyes, "You know it would be difficult for me to control my emotions in

such a noisy environment."

It was a silent threat from him.

I looked at Monique and saw the worried look on her face. I patted the back of her hand and comforted

her, "It's okay. Go and eat something. It'll only take a while. Wait for me." "Arianna," Monique still

wanted to say something.

However, I cut her short, "Just go. I'll be fine."

Seeing that, Monique didn't say anything more. She just glanced at Aaron and bellowed, "I'll fight you if

you dared to lay a finger on her!"

Aaron cocked his brows, but he said nothing.

Monique left the room.

Yana poured me another cup of tea. She looked at me and said, "Miss Reid, if you're afraid of

insomnia, try some black tea. It shouldn't affect your sleep."

"Thank you," I smiled faintly.

Aaron glanced at Yana and frowned slightly. It seemed that he disliked seeing her doing things by her

own discretion.

Yana shut her mouth and smiled brightly at me, no longer saying anything.

Aaron took a few sips of tea and looked at me with his dark eyes, "Since you've left the Roberts Group,

when are you going to divorce Hendrix?"

I laughed, "So, Mr. Reid now started to care about other people's private affairs?"

He raised his eyebrows at me, "Why the formalities between us, Arianna? You know I can give you a

better life if you leave him."

"Don't I seem to be doing well now?" I asked. Considering how big the scandal was, I wasn't surprised

that he knew what happened with the Roberts Group in Ucrebury.

He placed the teacup on the table and his eyes darkened slightly. He said, "Arianna, I know you better

than you do. Don't act tough in front of me. Hendrix doesn't belong to you, and likewise. Leaving him is

the best decision you can ever make."

I couldn't help laughing, "Mr. Reid, are you joking? Even after leaving the Roberts Group, I'm still

Hendrix's lawfully wedded wife."
