Chapter 832 - Saving the relationship (2) (1/2)

Sarah is in the shower. She hopes that it will help her think and find a solution to this absurd cycle she found herself in. How is it possible that she can't talk with Aiden and fix the problems if that is the only thing she wants to do?

She agrees with Sophia. Aiden will not make attempts to fix this… besides saying that he is sorry he does not know what else to do, anyway. And she can't blame him for that.

Everything from that evening was either neutral or good in some way except for the events that happened when two of them were alone in their suite… Those are the images which are haunting her, and she can't shake them off no matter how much she tries. She told herself that it was her decision, and now after her talk with Sophia she realized that if she gets an opportunity to go back and finds herself in the same situation, she will make the same choice. Sarah remembers how Aiden pushed her away and warned her that he is losing control and that she should stay away… but she decided not to. And she would do it all again. Sarah is confident that even if the same thing replays hundreds of times, she would never let him walk through that hell by himself.

Sarah recollected that Jeff said how Aiden was in a bad mood when they spoke on the phone. That tells her that he is reaching the state when he is unable to conceal his troubled emotional state from others.

And he even talked to Felix. Aiden probably did that because he is afraid of talking with her… because he does not want to bring those memories front and center again.

Both of them are aching, but she is the one who needs to fix it.

Sarah got an idea…

…

Sarah is in the computer room. She told Eve to lock the door and no one can come in to disturb her. Sarah needs to remind herself why she decided to stay by his side that evening, and why she would make the same choice hundred times over.

”Eve, show me videos of me and Aiden…”

”Which ones?” Eve responded with a question.

”All of them. Chronologically…”

Seemingly endless list of files was shown on one screen on the left, while large screen in front started playing videos one by one.

First video showed her and Aiden getting into Hill family villa. Timestamp: December 23, day after the Christmas party at Orion Enterprise… she remembered how that morning two of them slept together for the first time in his hotel room. And he said that he will treasure her forever… She watched Aiden greet Mr. Joe and then he followed her to greet Stella and Sophia. Sarah was so excited that he came to her home that she didn't realize how stiff he was... He was obviously uncomfortable.

After that they went to the PC room. There is no video surveillance inside that room, but she knows that he helped her find information related to Gabriel. Sarah smiled at the thought how at that time she didn't know that he is Omega and that he plans to ask her to come and work with him at White corp.

In next video two of them shared a meal… and chatted… and then there is a video from guest bedroom of her going inside bathroom. Oh, God! He was dancing in the shower! And then… just before two of them hit the mattress the video stopped.

Sarah is happy that she told Eve not to store recordings of intimacy between two people, but it's not difficult to guess what happened after that.

She spent hours watching two of them interact. She forgot so many things… Party at their house. Lexi trying to give Aiden spiked drink and Sarah coming to his rescue… and he helping her clean up the bloody bathroom…
