Chapter 845 - Talk to Aaron (1) (1/2)

Aaron got out of his dressing room in hurried steps and is heading for his rehearsal toward the stage.

He gasped when someone pulled him from the back. It was sudden, and he didn't get a chance to retaliate.

”What…?” Aaron's words were cut short when he saw Aiden.

”You! Why did you pull me into the restroom?”, Aaron asked angrily when he realized that he is in an oversized family restroom, and Aiden is uncomfortably close. Aaron stepped back and bumped against the wall.

”What do you want?”, Aaron squeezed through his teeth as images of Aiden and Jessica flashed in his mind. It was years ago, but that betrayal still burns in Aaron's heart like it happened recently.

”I want to talk to you.”, Sarah's voice came from behind Aiden.

”Sarah?” Aaron's eyes widened in surprise. He can recognize that sweet voice anywhere! He craned his neck to the side to see behind Aiden. Aiden is slightly higher than Aaron, so Aiden was blocking his view.

Sarah placed her hand on Aiden's shoulder, indicating him to move away. At least a little bit… so that she can see Aaron while she talks to him.

”Hi Aaron”, Sarah greeted him when Aiden stepped to the side.

Aiden moved only half a step because he saw how Aaron got excited when he heard Sarah, and he does not like it.

”Hi Sarah, how are you?” Aaron was doing his best to ignore Aiden's murderous gaze.

Sarah was surprised that Aaron is addressing her like they didn't just drag him forcefully here. How can he be so casual? ”I'm fine, thanks… but I'm not here to exchange pleasantries. I hope you realize that.”

Aaron wanted to talk to Sarah since he saw her on that stage. And he is happy to see her. But he can't understand why is Aiden here as well.

”Why is he here?” Aaron asked Sarah while glancing at Aiden. ”Did he force you to come here?”

”What do you mean force her?!”, Aiden was outraged.

Aaron glared at Aiden, refusing to yield. ”Because there is no way that a nice girl like Sarah will come with you willingly.”

Sarah pinched roof of her nose. It seems that there is too much testosterone in this restroom. She was thinking if she should ask Aiden to leave. She can't talk to Aaron like this. There is an almost visible electrical discharge between two of them because both Aaron and Aiden seem to be more than ready to start fighting.

Sarah exhaled. ”Please, can you calm down?”

She said this to both of them, but neither listened.

”Sarah, why are you with him?” Aaron asked Sarah with a frown on his face.

Sarah realized that Aaron is concerned for her. His tone is unusually protective. Part of her was touched by this, and she smiled.

Aaron saw Sarah smile at him, and he felt butterflies in his stomach. This wonderful young woman is smiling at him! Ah, maybe Aiden should punch him… he will not fight back. Girls always defend the weaker one.

Sarah didn't miss that Aaron's face lit up, and she can tell that he has something on his mind.

Aiden clenched his fist, and Sarah knows that he is fuming already. If she does not do something about this, there will definitely be a fight.

Sarah decided to give a warning: ”Aaron… if you don't tone it down, you will be hurt.”
