Memories Of The Night - Chapter 539
The next morning.
Aaron has breakfast with Katrina, then ties his tie and gets ready to go to work.
He kisses Katrina on the lips to say goodbye as if no one were around them.
After getting married for so long, the daily morning kiss and parting kiss are indispensable.
Every day is as sweet as the honeymoon.
Katrina’s small face is flushed with shyness.
The servants in the villa, however, have long been accustomed to it.
Before leaving, Aaron goes up to the servant holding Owen and pinches his face gently.
“I go to work, you be good, don’t bully my wife and make her angry, do you hear?”
The little fellow doesn’t understand anything and smirks.
Katrina hurries over and pushes Aaron out, “Aaron, your son is only one year old. You dare to threaten him! Owen is so good! Okay, okay! You go to work!”
Aaron reluctantly is pushed by her to the outside, then takes the opportunity to turn around, and steals a kiss on her lips again, then satisfyingly goes to work.
People say love has a shelf life.
As time goes by, love will fade away.
But Aaron finds that he seems to love her more since he got married.
He wants to stay with her every day, doesn’t want to separate from her, and even wants to go to work with his wife.
In this way, he can see her all the time.
But after all, it’s still somewhat unrealistic.
After Aaron goes to work, Katrina stays at home to take care of the baby, helps the maid with the cleaning, or sits in the sun and reads a book.
In the afternoon, Katrina is feeding milk powder to her baby after he takes a nap.
Just then, a servant comes into the room to report, “Miss Miller, we have a guest at home who wants to see you.”
Katrina hands the baby to the servant and says, “I got it. I’m going downstairs.”
Katrina thinks the person will be her colleague.
Because Colin said a few days ago that he would visit her for she is pregnant on behalf of the police station.
Just as Katrina walks downstairs, she sees Duke sitting on the sofa.
She doesn’t expect Duke to drop by.
Katrina’s face is suddenly filled with astonishment, “How could it be you?”
If she’s not mistaken, shouldn’t Duke be in Hadley city?
Why is he in Abbe city?
What’s more, why will he come unannounced?
Duke catches a glimpse of Katrina’s belly.
Although it’s not yet obvious, the careful way she walks reveals some clues.
Duke lights up with a smile on his handsome face, and his voice is gentle as ever, “Miss Miller, long time no see. I’m so happy to see you together with my brother again.”
Before, Katrina had a good impression on Duke when she was in Hadley city and trusted him very much.
Because Duke always looked like a gentleman.
This time, Katrina is not as innocent as before when facing Duke.
Because she knows that behind Duke’s smile, there may be some conspiracy and calculation.
Katrina calmly sits down on the sofa and politely says, “Thank you. Why do you come to see me today?”
“Well, I’m going to get married soon.”
Duke says, pulls out an invitation, and hands it over.
“It’s next month. I hope you and my brother can attend my wedding ceremony.”
Katrina takes Duke’s invitation and opens it.
The groom is Duke.
The bride, however, is Annie.
Duke finally is going to marry Annie after all?
Does it mean that he is going to get the inheritance of the Wilson family after all?
Katrina doesn’t know why, when she suddenly gets the news, she feels strange in her heart.
Maybe it’s because Duke has played too many tricks in order to inherit the Wilson family.
Katrina congratulates against her will, “Congratulations after Aaron comes back, I’ll tell him.”
After all, this is a matter for Aaron’s family. How it should be dealt with has to be handled by him when he comes back.
Duke smiles, “That’s best.”
Just then, there is a sound of opening the door.
Then Aaron comes in from the outside.
The servant gallantly takes over the briefcase in his hand, “Sir Is back.”
Aaron gives a casual answer.
When he changes his shoes and walks into the living room, he sees Duke sitting on the sofa and Katrina on the other side.
Knowing what Duke is like, Aaron quickly raises his guard and hurries over.
Aaron sits next to Katrina, separates the two of them with his body, and shields Katrina behind him. He looks at Duke coldly and asks indifferently, “Why you come here?”
Duke took advantage of Katrina’s kindness several times before.
Aaron is also afraid of Duke bullying Katrina when he’s not present.
Seeing Aaron’s alert and cold look, Duke instead smiles and says, “My brother, you are back just in time. I am going to marry Annie, and the invitation card has been given to my sister-in-law. I sincerely hope that you and Katrina can attend our wedding. Father will be glad to see you, too!”
As Aaron continues to look at him with a blank expression, Duke knows that his brother has always treated him like that.
He simply no longer asks for a response but rises to say goodbye, “Since the invitation has been sent to you, I will not bother you. My brother and sister-in-law, I wish you happiness.”
Duke says and leaves the villa.
As soon as Duke leaves, Aaron turns his head, grabs Katrina’s hand, and looks her up and down.
“What did he do to you?”
Katrina shakes her head, “No, I knew he isn’t a good person, so I didn’t pay much attention to him.”
Aaron touches her head and praises, “Well done.”
Katrina passes the invitation to Aaron, “Aaron, here is the invitation he just gave to me.”
Aaron takes over the invitation but is lost in thought.
On the surface, Duke is here to send Aaron an invitation.
But Aaron could feel that his true purpose is not that.
In fact, Duke comes to show off.
Because after marrying Annie, he can get the inheritance right of Wilson’s family.
Duke came to announce the news to him.
He thought that he was sure to win the right to inherit Wilson’s family, so he was eager to come to him and show off?
Although Aaron doesn’t want to marry Annie, he also can’t be so reconciled that let Duke get the inheritance right of Wilson’s family easily.
At that moment, Aaron has decided that he’s not going to make Duke’s plan work so smoothly.
