SWNOVELS Chapter 547
Chapter 547 She and You Were Never Close
There 1s no way, I really fell for it
After Aaron pitifully apologized for his previous actions, my anger immediately dissipated, and I tiptoed to peck a kiss on his lips
Half an hour later, the two of us arrived at his doorstep following the address Mr. Marilyn had written in the text message
The doorbell was pressed for less than half a minute when Mr. Marilyn personally came to open the door. However, when he saw Aaron beside me, his originally smiling expression immediately froze on his face, with a fleeting disappointment in his eyes. However, he quickly
regained his composure, nodded at Aaron, and gestured for us to come in
I didn't think much at the moment, I just felt that Aaron's previous rudeness towards Mr. Marilyn made the latter uncomfortable, so I didn't pay much attention to his indifference towards Aaron
Just when I asked where Meteor was, Mr
Marilyn smiled apologetically
"T thought you weren't coming, so I asked the nanny to put him to sleep no matter what. He should be asleep by now. Do you remember me telling you that the child cries like a little demon? So, let's not disturb him while he's finally asleep. How about we have a cup of coffee in the living room before he wakes up?"
I nodded in agreement, but Aaron beside me had
a sudden change in expression due to Mr
Marilyn's words
I didn't miss anything, and I knew exactly what Aaron was thinking
But since I had already come, there was no reason to turn back. While Mr. Marilyn went to call someone to prepare coffee, I tugged at Aaron's sleeve and whispered, "Sick children don't sleep quietly for a long time. When Meteor wakes up, I'll go up and check on him, and then we can leave, okay?"
This 1s a reassurance to Aaron. I have calmed down and do not want any more conflicts between him and me to be triggered by anyone's actions
Aaron paused, his expression still not looking good. "But a sick child wouldn't just fall asleep

when told to, didn't you realize that he was actually using the child to get you to come here today? If I hadn't followed you..."
He had not finished speaking when Mr. Marilyn came out of the kitchen
I quickly pinched Aaron's finger, indicating him to save any words for home, and then quickly added in his ear, "It's a good thing you came along."
This remark indeed pleased Aaron, and he immediately suppressed his previous emotions, grasping my hand and even looking at Mr
Marilyn with a hint of pride
I sat back on the sofa, laughing inwardly at the man's childish awkwardness, and accepted the coffee cup handed to me by the servant. I politely thanked Mr. Marilyn for his hospitality
"Don't call me Mr. Marilyn anymore, Olive, that's too formal. You can call me Charlie."

The person on the opposite sofa smiled and told me not to be so polite. Before I could say anything, Aaron on the side sneered
"We weren't particularly close to begin with, Mr. Marilyn 1s my wife's boss, so it's only polite for her to address you with some respect. After all... if Meiling Company needs venture capital in the future, you might have to go to GHY Group to make a statement. If someone hears that you and my wife are close, we might be suspected and unable to proceed with the investment."
"Mr. Morris is quite the joker," Mr. Marilyn paused for a moment, realizing that Aaron was using his status to mock him. However, he didn't show any displeasure on his face and continued
to smile, albeit with less politeness in his words
"Meiling Company's operations will not encounter any issues for the time being, although it may not have the same financial strength as GHY Group, it won't be seeking investments anytime soon."
"Hopefully, no problems would arise."
Aaron looked at him and shook the coffee cup in his hand, but only took a light sniff of the coffee aroma in front of his nose, without taking a sip. He only slightly furrowed his brow and placed the cup back on the coffee table
The guest's behavior was undoubtedly disrespectful towards the host. I listened to their back-and-forth mockery and noticed Aaron's obvious disdain for someone else's coffee. I couldn't help but feel worried, not knowing if they would have another inexplicable conflict in
the future
And just as I was about to speak up to smooth things over, the nanny came down from upstairs and softly called out to Mr. Marilyn, "Sir, the young master has woken up."
