Chapter 165 - Martin Moved (2/2)

”There must be something that hurt her this much. Do you think… I wouldn't know if my son gets shifted. Say it… what did Cedric do to her?” he asked.

Valene was shocked at Aiden's words. He knew he could no longer hide anymore.

”He hurt her physically again,” Valene said, forgetting that he was selling himself to Aiden with the last word.

”Again?” Aiden stressed the word, asking for a clear explanation from him.

”What did he do during the first time and now?” Aiden asked as his gaze turned sharper and narrower.

”Uncle,” Valene wanted to avoid but he couldn't; he might turn out to be his father in the future.

”Say it or live here till you answer me,” Aiden said. Aiden looked at Eric who nodded his head and went outside. He closed all the doors and locked them inside.

”I am as patient as a tree. I can wait without moving. Can you do the same?” Aiden asked.

”Uncle, you are forcing me to answer,” Valene said.

”I can get to know things on my own. But it takes time. If you were to answer it will make my work easier,” Aiden said.

Left with no choice Valene said everything. From the time, Cedric forced himself on Eleanor and today's incident shows how he hurt Eleanor.

Aiden has to say he was shocked by Cedric's behavior. He thought he was a good man but he was proved wrong. He raped his daughter. And he hurt her even today physically. And cheated on her.

How dare he say she was wrong!?

This man doesn't deserve his darling daughter. He doesn't want him as his son-in-law. No matter how powerful Emerson was, they couldn't be compared to his daughter. Even if he lost everything he would just fight his way for his daughter.

”I got it. I know what to do.” Aiden said.

Valene knew there was something big that was going to happen.

”Help me with something,” Aiden said again after some silence.

”Yes?” he said.

”Make sure she doesn't get out of the house for the coming week. Do anything. Also… get Myna into your hospital. I wonder if he doesn't torture her after everything that happened,” Aiden said.

”I will do this even if you don't ask me, Uncle,” Valene said.

”Don't let your mother know this,” Aiden added after some thought.

”Why?” Valene asked. He knew his mother well. If she gets to know this, she would make sure that Emerson gets into serious trouble and makes their living hell. But he just wanted to know this answer in Aiden's words.

”She is a tornado. She will create one in Emerson's group,” Aiden said.

”Indeed. She will,” he said with a laugh.

”I am glad you are there for her,” Aiden said all of a sudden.

”I used to be envious of Martin for having such a cutie as his sister. Now, he is sleeping. If not now… I won't have a chance to get close to her and replace him,” Valene said.

”I wish you would marry her. Such a shame. Did you manage to make that girl fall for you?” Aiden asked.

”That girl… I realized… I always liked her as a sister. I met my soulmate. After meeting her I never truly loved her in a way that a man loves a woman. But as a brother loves her sister. I want my true love to fall for me. It's such a shame that she is in love with someone else,” Valene said.

”I will give you a suggestion,” Aiden said. Valene perked his ears at his words.

”Pursue her with your whole heart. Wait for her despite the passing time. Don't fret to show your love despite both of your family statuses. Don't care about your parent's decisions. Despite everything, your love is the one who lives the rest of her life with you, not your parents. If your parents truly love you, they will agree with your decision,” he said.

Valene nodded.

Indeed, an old man is not just a man of sagged muscles and weak bones but a man of experience and wits.
