Chapter 855 Extra Story 05 of Araon Memory (1/2)
”The Leng family... is about to step into a new era,” Aaron said slowly. His eyes were cold as ever, but the sadness was plain in his eyes.
Ken didn't respond. He simply looked at the logo with a wordless sigh and kept holding the umbrella for Aaron quietly.
Aaron stood still in front of the tall building. No one knew what was going through his mind. Time seemed to have stopped for him at the moment. Eventually, the lonely expression on his face disappeared and was replaced by the usual indifference. As he walked away from the skyscraper, a blood thirsty look flitted over his eyes.

When Ximena came out of the bathroom, a silk gown was already laid out on her bed. The sheets had been changed and the wardrobe was filled with different types of clothes in various sizes.
Nothing about this surprised her. She knew how these rich people were; even the moon or the stars would be sent over to them if they demanded it. But she was in no mood to appreciate those fancy items.
She gazed outside. The empty yard was dark and horrifying.
The relentless drizzle looked like a dark garment for the lonely night.
Her thoughts drifted back to the past. ”Xim, will you wait for me?” James had asked her. They had been sitting on the grass on one dark night. He was handsome and elegant, and his voice was so hypnotizing.
”Will you come back for me?”
she had asked him in response.
”I will,” he had answered firmly. ”No matter how long it takes, I'll come back for you.”
