Sweet Addiction

Chapter 23 I Won't Leave You Alone

Irene thought, 'That is a great chance!'

She turned around and glared at Aaron, "Let me ask you! How many girlfriends did you have?"

Aaron was so handsome. There must be a lot of women attracted by him! Although he was just a driver, he was extremely handsome. In this age of looking faces, no matter where Aaron went, many women had to pay attention to his appearance!

Aaron approached Irene and said in a gentle voice, "You are the only woman I love from the past to the present till the future!"

"Then why do you know..."

"Carl told me that. He often talks about his bed with some girls in front of me and Jackson!" Aaron didn't mind to involve his friends in this matter, but he didn't lie to her. Carl was indeed willing to show off the number of his female companions and how strong and brave he was in bed!

"What?" Irene viciously pouted her lips and warned, "Carl is so disgusting. You'd better keep away from him in the future, or else you might get a bad influence!"

"Yes, honey, you are right!" Aaron said with a good face.

At the same time, Carl sneezed five times in a row and couldn't stop the runny nose! Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

'Damn it! Who is cursing me?' Carl thought.

Perhaps he would never expect that the people who abused him at this time were his good friend and his friend's wife!

When Irene woke up in the next morning, she found no one beside her. She touched the wrinkles of the bed sheet beside her and realized that she was a married woman now. She could no longer say that she was a young and beautiful girl. Well, let her mourn for one minute.

Irene rolled over on the bed with the quilt in her arms. She blushed when she smelled the fragrance of their same style of bath foam. She had thought that it would make her uncomfortable to sleep on the same bed with another man, but she seemed to have a good sleep last night. Her bad mood, which was under the influence of Jonny these days, had been calmed down.

Hearing the sound from the bedroom, Aaron walked in and couldn't help laughing at Irene who was rolling on the bed. He put his hand to his mouth and coughed.

Hearing the voice, Irene looked at the door with shyness, clenched her quilt and said, "Good morning."

"Good morning. Get up if you are awake. Breakfast is ready."

Irene nodded her head and watched Aaron leaving. She hastily sat up, put on her slippers and went to the bathroom. She tidied up her pajamas in front of the mirror and smoothed her hair which had been curled into a chicken nest. At last, she winked at herself in the mirror.

Irene murdered to herself, "Come on! Irene! You will be a good wife!"

When she walked to the kitchen door, she saw that Aaron was cooking food. He was about 1.9 meters tall, which gave her a sense of security. Looking at his smooth figure, Irene wondered what it would be like to hold him from behind.

As soon as she smelled something, her stomach growled.

Hearing this, Aaron turned around and saw Irene shyly touching her belly and smiling awkwardly at him.

He glanced at her pajamas and asked, "Are you hungry?"

"Err... A little."

Looking at Irene's cute expression, Aaron couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth. He pointed at the table and said, "Sit down, the food will be ready soon."

"Okay." Irene nodded her head obediently. However, she was roaring in her mind though she looked calm. Did she get the treasure? As soon as Aaron looked back, she felt that he was as important as her favorite actor in her heart. The smile at the corner of his mouth made her heart beat faster to a degree.

When she finished cleaning, Aaron had already set the bowls and chopsticks for her. She walked over and sat down. He picked up a cake for her and said, "This cake is famous in this area. Try it and it's delicious."

She picked it up and took a bite. It was really delicious. It turned out that the aroma she just smelled was this cake! She gave Aaron a thumbs up, chewing the cookies, and complimented, "It's really delicious!"

Amused, Aaron reached out his hand and wiped her mouth. "Take your time. You don't have to rush."

"By the way, why didn't you go to work?" Aaron's action made Irene blush. She then pretended not to mind and changed the topic.

Upon hearing this, Aaron withdrew his hand and took a sip of porridge. "My boss don't go out this morning. I can go there this afternoon," he answered calmly

Irene nodded and said in a low voice, "You are not so busy." But she then frowned and thought, 'Being a driver isn't a permanent solution.'

Suddenly, her phone rang. Irene took it out and found that it was her mother. She hesitated to answer the phone when she recalled what her mother said yesterday.

"What's wrong?"

"…… It's my mother."

Aaron's expression changed, "No blind date!"

Irene glanced at Aaron and said in a low voice, "Okay, I got it." She turned around, put down the chopsticks and picked up the phone.

He was right. It was about the blind dates.

"Mom, I just graduated. I'm not in a hurry."

Bonnie raised her voice when she heard what Irene said, "Why not? You're old enough to have a baby if you are in the countryside!"

". . ." Irene was totally speechless and thought to herself, 'Why didn't she say that to my sister?' After thinking for a while, she said, "Mom, I just graduated from university. I'm looking for a job. I'm very busy recently. Our school might introduce some companies to me."

Hearing her words, Bonnie immediately calmed down. In her eyes, Irene's efforts to find a boyfriend were very important. But at the same time, it was also important to make money. Hence, Bonnie didn't say anything else but just let Irene tell her when she was free and the Aunt Laura's nephew was really nice.

Irene hung up the phone, thinking that only money could stop her mother from talking nonsense.

She peeped at Aaron and found that everything was fine But deep in her heart, she knew that they couldn't go on like this and sooner or later she would tell the family that she had married.

Aaron thought to himself, 'Their marriage is a fact, so Irene's mother can't make any trouble.'

After they finished breakfast, Aaron saw that Irene seemed to be absent-minded. So he volunteered to clear away the dishes. When Aaron went back to the living room, he saw Irene still holding the cushion in a daze.

"What's wrong? Are you still thinking about the blind date?"

Irene turned her head to look at Aaron and hastily waved her hand. Although she didn't want to tell her family about her marriage now, she knew what to do and what not to do. After thinking for a while, she said, "I'm wondering how to spend the 200, 000 dollars..."

"……" Irene was so absorbed in thought that Aaron didn't have the heart to disappoint her. He thought it was a good thing for his wife to live such a serious life. 'Anyway, I've paid back the 200, 000 dollars to Jonny. What Irene wants to spend now is my money, so I don't care about it at all, ' thought Aaron. So he pretended to be curious and asked, "Have you thought it through?"

Irene asked, "What's your opinion?"

"This money belongs to you. You decide how to spend it." Said Aaron while caressing Irene's hair.

But Irene frowned when she heard what Aaron said. "Although this money was given by Jonny and you may feel a little strange about it, you just don't think too much about it. This money may not be a big deal for Jonny and we have broken up. Now that we are married, we should make good use of the money." Then she patted Aaron on his shoulder, indicating that she would not treat him unfairly.

But before Aaron could say anything, she added, "I have made up my mind just now. I will open a noodle restaurant with some money. Don't worry. I can't make it. Then I will use the rest money to buy you a car. You can't always drive for others. We can make a lot of money by driving a taxi." Then she raised her eyebrows at Aaron, as if to say, "Don't worry, I won't leave you behind."

Looking at Irene who was in high spirits, Aaron thought for a while and said, "How about you open a restaurant with money? Don't worry about me. I can drive for that boss now. There is no need to be overcautious." Irene interrupted Aaron when he was still struggling, "No. I once worked for others. I know how painful it is to live under other's roof. Don't worry. I must buy a car for you, at least a second- hand car first. When I make money, I'll buy you a new one."

What else could he say?

Aaron didn't know what else to say. If his friends knew that his wife asked him to drive a second-hand taxi, Carl would laugh loudly. If that happened, Jackson couldn't help laughing.
