Chapter 316: Matter of a week or two.

Although she needed nothing to believe it, still, since she was there to mess up with him, she pretended to be skeptical about it.

“You want me to believe it?” she asked, raising her brows at him.  Aiden stared at him for a second before shaking his head.

“I would love it more if instead of believing me, you would go out and wreak havoc for each and every woman who even dared to try it,” he said, his eyes at her growing expectant with each passing second.  Momentarily stunned, Arwen couldn’t bear to look into his eyes for longer.

Taking a step back, she quickly pulled away.

She was there to mess up with him, but she never knew he would make it happen the opposite.  “Shouldn’t you be trying to make me believe instead?” she asked, confused about why he was going out of the script.

And who the hell encourages their wife to throw a tantrum like that?

Don’t men desire an understanding and obedient wife instead, who tries to understand it all?  Aiden took his step closer to her and reached a hand out to comb back a strand of hair behind her ears.

“It would be more fun seeing you getting wild instead.”  “You…”  Before she could say another word, he leaned down to press his lips against hers.

The kiss was soft, yet it spoke volumes.

At that moment, Arwen forgot it all.

Her fingers subconsciously clenched on his shoulders, crumbling his shirt fabric while her other hand gripped his arm.  “Do you believe it now?” he whispered, pulling away once he made sure he gave enough evidence to prove himself.  Arwen, who had long forgotten what it was all about, stared confusedly at him.

“Huh?”  He smirked and then asked again, “Do you believe now that apart from you there has been no one else?

Or do you want me to prove it again?” With that, he didn’t wait and dipped again, this time taking her with a heated passion.  Arwen tapped his shoulders when felt getting breathless.

“I€“I believed it,” she said when finally felt him giving her the needed chance she was asking for.  “You sure you do?” he asked, and she glared at him, nodding.  “Of course, I do.

Or do you really want me to go out and wreak havoc in your company?”  “Although I would love to see you doing that, however since you already believe me, you can save the idea for the next time.

I won’t mind that too.” He smirked.  Arwen was speechless.

She wanted to say something, but when she opened her mouth to let the words out, no words came.

In the end, she nodded to him and said, “Fine, if that’s what you want, I will surely make that happen.

Just make sure when that happens, you don’t come to complain.” Her nose flared, but Aiden stared at her with an adoring gaze.  Without any doubt, Arwen enjoyed it. It only made her feel pampered.  Just as they were at that moment, Aiden’s phone rang on the desk.

His gaze darted to it before he walked to take it.  “Do you want me to leave first,” she asked, but he shook his head.  “Stay.”  Arwen nodded while he took the call.

He didn’t say a word but with each passing second, she could see the colour of his eyes changing.

She wanted to ask what was it but given he was still over the call, she chose to be patient until he hung up.  “Okay, got it.”  She heard him say before seeing him pull away the phone.

She was about to ask him what happened, but right at that moment, a knock at the door interrupted them.  “Come in!” Aiden’s voice rang again and Emyr entered the room with worry written over his face.  He gently nodded to Arwen before returning his gaze to Aiden.

“Sir, should I book the earliest flight?”  Flight?  Arwen didn’t understand.

She looked at Aiden, confused.  “Book it for the night,” Aiden said, and taking the orders, Emyr nodded before leaving the office.  Once he was gone, Arwen asked, “What happened?

Are you going somewhere?’  “Yes,” Aiden said, turning to her with his brows slightly furrowed.

“I need to return to New York for something important.

Something suddenly happened and it needs me there.”  Although he didn’t explain much, she understood it was something serious.

Otherwise, nothing would explain a last-minute arrangement like this.  Nodding, she said, “Do you want me to head back first and help you pack?” she asked, but Aiden shook his head.  “It’s fine, we can head together sometime.

Emyr will call Mr.

Jones and he will prepare everything.

Dropping you back at home, I will leave.” Arwen nodded to him again.

She was all fine minutes ago.

But since she had heard him leaving, she felt her heart getting unsettled inside.

“How long will it take you to come back then?” she asked, without even understanding why she was asking this instead of asking the actual problem that happened.  Given the situation, people would rather ask about the problem.

But here she just wanted to know for how long she would have to stay away from him.  Aiden read the discomfort in her eyes.

“I don’t know yet.

It probably might take me a few days or even a week.

Do you want to come along?” he asked.  And Arwen’s eyes sparkled for a second before it dimmed again.

Shaking her head, she said, “I don’t think that would be possible.

There are a few things that I need to take care of.” Although she usually doesn’t have much to do at Davies Empire, there are a few projects that need her attention every now and then.

So, she needs to stick back until she wraps them all or make sure that those ongoing projects don’t need her for some time at least.

About which she wasn’t sure at the moment.  “It’s fine, it’s just a matter of a week or two.

It’s not like you I will be alone here,” she said, cracking a small laugh.

“Mr.

Jones and the rest of others will be here.

And even Gianna has returned.

We anyway will be hanging out together,” she said and then suddenly recalled something that she felt to be forgetting.

“And yes, there is also the dinner at Aunt Beca’s place.

Do you want me to cancel it?

We can go together when you return.”
