Tempting My Rented Boyfriend - Chapter 133

Ch-132

“I want to see him,” Aiden said after a comfortable silence.

“Hmm… but you shall be quick,” Eleanor said.

Aiden nodded his head and headed to the hospital. He dragged Eric with him to visit his son. Feeling happy for the first after nearly eight months, he laughed out loud, surprising everyone in the house.

“Babe… you are my lucky star. You proved it again!” Aiden shouted from the front yard as he waited for the car to pick him up.

“Then you should treat me to delicious food sometime!” Eleanor yelled back at him.

“Anything for you!” he yelled back at her from the gate.

Eleanor waved at him, seeing the car arrive.

“Take care and be Quick dad!” Eleanor yelled. For which Aiden just waved back at her.

Turning back, she looked at the surprised servants. “Make it quick,” she said to them. Nodding their heads, they went back to their work.

“Miss, Shall I make Mousse?” the old cook said with a smile on her face.

“Sure, Aunt Jenna,” Eleanor said with a smile.

The old cook, Jenna left the hall from there. Eleanor felt bitter for hiding the truth. Before she left the hospital she made the arrangements that nobody leaks the information about Martin’s real condition to her father. Eleanor felt horrible for not revealing the real truth of her brother’s health. Maybe she needs to chill down and hold it on everything. She understood the pressure of her brother’s position. She hoped that he would wake up early and turn healthy.

Walking inside… she went to wash her face and get changed. She didn’t like the smell of medicine and antibiotic on her clothes. She needs to get rid of it. Even her brother hated it, but now he was lying there for eight months. Maybe this was life. We need to face what we hate the most. With a chuckle, she washed her face and stripped herself naked. But no matter what, she still couldn’t get rid of the smell. Sighing, she decided to take a bath. Taking a bath, she wrapped herself in her robe. She walked inside the walk-in closet and checked through her clothes. She found a three-piece suit and wore it. She planned to go to the office after lunch.

Getting herself ready, she waited for others to come to her house. Aiden, Regan, and Cedric came together. She was surprised at their arrival but again… she has to say the Emerson’s has all over. Someone might have informed them that Aiden was in the hospital and they might have gone there to curry favor with him. She chuckled at their behavior. They can be too cute and too scary.

Reaching the gate, she invited them inside cordially with a smile on her face. They entered the hall.

“You have a lovely house,” Regan commented.

“Yeah… my daughter got a lovely taste,” Aiden didn’t leave a chance to praise Eleanor.

“Indeed. But even though it is depressing that my house is not as lovely as yours, the thing which makes me happy is that Eleanor would soon become my daughter-in-law,” Regan said as he tried to crawl under his skin.

“Dad… how about we go inside,” Eleanor interjected before Aiden could say something.

“Hmm… yeah…” he nodded. Cedric was trying to wink at her and send her, his iconic seductive smiles. But she tried to ignore them all. But in the end, she still turned her head and looked at him.

Cedric saw her looking at him. So he gave her a smirk along with a wink making her blush. That was how he successfully threw her thoughts of being a strong woman out of the window. She quickly turned her head away and focused on other things.

She invited them to the dining table and made them sit.

“Aunt Jenna,” Eleanor called out. Cedric waited for Eleanor to sit beside him but to his disappointment, Eleanor went and sat beside Aiden. ‘I am disappointed’ these words were written on his face clearly in big bold letters. Anybody could sense his brooding mood.

Aunt Jenna returned with all the dishes and served them on the table along with the servants. After they were done setting the table, Aunt Jenna served them the dishes.

“It’s good that Martin is showing progress. First, it’s marriage and then it’s recovery. The good news would follow one by one,” Regan said with a chuckle.

“Indeed, Didn’t I say my girl is a lucky charm? She proves that all the time,” Aiden said as he laughed. He caressed her hair and looked at her lovingly.

“Indeed,” he said.

“Yeah… so we should talk about the wedding date and other stuff. Since… they wanted to hold a wedding after Martin’s recovery, then we can only plan for registration. I guess we need to pick a good day for that. So that… nothing would go wrong,” Regan said.

“Yeah… I sent the birth charts of Cedric and Eleanor to a Buddha hermit. He will do the calculations and would send the auspicious date.” Aiden said.

“That’s a great thing,” Regan said feeling happy.

Finally, he made the Stoney face Aiden compelled to his words.

“I thought You believed in Jesus,” Cedric suddenly said.

“Yeah… indeed… But my mom used to believe in Buddha So I followed the suit,” Aiden said. Cedric just oohed at him and said nothing.

“What shall we need to buy for their marriage?” Regan asked.

“Yeah… what shall we buy or plan on their marriage day?” Aiden joined him.

“How about a small party with friends and family?” Regan said.

“Come on, Regan. I want to enjoy that day with the children why do we need those extra people who make noise?” Aiden said waving his hand.

“Indeed, My daughter never met Eleanor directly. I will call her over, you two and we three our five members shall celebrate it,” Regan said.

“Yeah… we should. But is it enough. I only got one daughter. I need to keep everything happy and entertaining her. What if she was bored of our lousy arrangements,”  Aiden put his thoughts out, painting as if Eleanor was a devil.

Eleanor: “…”

[Dad… I am still here.] Eleanor cried in her head when she heard her words.

Cedric tried to hold back his laughter.

“Sigh… indeed we are growing old. Let’s check for ideas on the net or ask my daughter. Or else… we can ask those old brains. After all, it’s time for them to put their rusted brains in the use,” Regan said.

“You are still the same,” Aiden commented taking a bite from his food.

“Of course,” Regan said.

“Hmmm,” he hummed.

“The food is great. Who is the chef?” Regan asked.

“Oh, she is the one who served the food to us. She cooks this delicious food,” Aiden answered.

“Well, what I can say she got magic in her hands,” Regan commented.

“That was the reason, Eleanor brought her into the house,” Aiden said.

“Looks like the cook was someone with a story,” Regan said.

“Yeah… but a common story. Her son turned greedy and took away the restaurant she was running and threw her out. The young Nora, who doesn’t know anything got her home and hired her as a cook. After all, she cooks Nora’s favorite food and she became Nora’s favorite. Not only hers since Nora likes her Martin likes her too.” Aiden said.

“Looks like she has a place in this house,” Regan commented.

“Yeah… I am grateful for her presence. When I am out on trips she used to take care of the kids. Even though Martin took care of his sister. He was also a kid who needs to take care of. And she filled the void for him.” he said.

“I can’t repay her in this life,” He added.

“They are lucky unlike my children,” Regan said.

“Indeed… it’s hard to be a single father,” Aiden commented.

“Yeah… that too a father with naughty children. Too… hard,” Regan said acting as if he got chills.

“Haha… indeed, it’s really hard. Not only naughty but also foodie,” Aiden added.

“Eating is good. After all, we earn for them,” Regan said.

“Yeah…” Aiden said.

“Sir, Dessert,” Aunt Jenna came with Mousse in her hands.

“Woah… Mousse! That’s my favorite,” Aiden turned excited at the sight of his favorite dessert.

“Nora, you shouldn’t stop me today,” Aiden said. He didn’t care if Eleanor gave him permission. Like a greedy cat, he started gobbling the dessert.

“Dad… slower… no one is going to snatch the food,” Eleanor said.

“I am afraid you would change your mind,” Aiden said.

“I won’t. I promise,” Eleanor said.

“That’s great,” Aiden said continued to gobble up the food.

After they finished the food, Aiden and Regan went to the backyard and started having their conversation with each other. They didn’t snap or argue. They just conversed for a long time.. Eleanor saw them from upstairs and smiled at them.
