Chapter 1:First Meeting (1/2)
The hours already showed 10 pm, but the city streets still looked crowded. The lights of the passing vehicles filled the streets, making the night sky sparkle.
Aiden was sitting by the window of his presidential suite, observing the hustle and bustle of the city as opposed to his quiet room. Occasionally, his hands rose to comb his short, wet hair.
His eyes were fixed on the beautiful city street view, but unfortunately, that beauty made his eyes sting and his vision blurred.
He closed his eyes and his memory returned to that day, one year ago. The day fate not only robbed him of sight but also paralyzed his legs. That day, fate had changed his whole life.
But what did destiny mean? Aiden did not believe in fate, because it was not fate that determined the course of his life, but he himself. He made the impossible possible, even if fate was against it.
Eight months after the accident happened, Aiden was back on his way. His persistence in running an intensive physiotherapist for months made his legs bounce back and move. His vision slowly recovered even though the bright light still disturbed his eyes and made his vision blurry.
He was deep in the memories of his past when suddenly a voice woke him up from his reverie. The door to his room slowly opened and two servants entered the room carrying a woman. The woman looked so drunk, that she was completely unaware when the two maids led her to Aiden's bed.
One of the servants raised his index finger towards his mouth, gesturing for his partner not to make the slightest sound. Aiden smiled when he saw the gesture of the two servants who thought he was blind and couldn't see what they were doing. Not the kind smile on his lips, but the smile that was really terrible.
”Who is there?” Aiden growled softly.
The growl made the two servants gasp. They were both very scared and immediately fled from the room without thinking twice.
Aiden was angry. His jaw tightened as he rose from his chair and went to the woman who had been left in his room. Who dared to enter his room without permission?
Under the dim light of his room, Aiden could see the woman's face blushed, the strong smell of wine wafting from all over her body. He continued to squirm on the bed, while his lips parted slightly and let out a soft moan.
Aiden frowned upon seeing this. He turned around and was about to call his assistant to immediately get rid of the stranger who entered his room. But just as he was about to leave, suddenly the woman grabbed his hand.
”Please ...” groaned the woman softly.
Only then did Aiden see the woman's face clearly. His eyes widened slightly when he realized who the real woman was in his room.
