Chapter 35：I Miss You (2/2)

The joy in Anya's heart seemed contagious even though they didn't meet face to face.

”Of course! I planted a lot of flowers today. Next month, the park will be filled with various beautiful flowers…” Anya excitedly said while imagining her garden full of blooming flowers in the next few months.

”You don't have to water it every day, I'll have the servants do it.” Aiden said. She was worried for Anya because Anya had just recovered. He didn't want to let Anya fall ill again.

”How about you? Is your work going well?” Anya asked. It seemed like this was the first time they had a long conversation on the phone. It was because this was the first time they separated for a few days after they got married.

”Hmm ... The work is going well.” Aiden replied.

Silence enveloped them for a moment. Aiden didn't ask anything and Anya didn't know what to say to Aiden. Anya didn't know why Aiden had called her so suddenly. Was it possible that the man wanted to make sure Anya was home and didn't run away from her debts?

”I miss you ...” Aiden suddenly muttered. His inner voice was a little hoarse from the phone. The voice seemed to hypnotize Anya, making her fall silent.

Anya gasped as she laid on her bed. One of her hands still held the phone to her ear while she was speechless.

Why did that man miss her suddenly? They were not lovers. They were just two people who didn't know each other, bound by marriage because of their respective needs. They were not a couple who loved each other.

In addition, they had also just been separated for one day.

However, hearing that sentence, coupled with Aiden's deep voice, made Anya's face immediately flush red. Even though Anya couldn't see her own face, she would bet that her face was red as a tomato now. Besides, she felt her ears feel hot with embarrassment. She already felt like this without Aiden's presence.

What if Aiden said that directly in front of her? Anya couldn't imagine that!

What should she say now? Should she say that she missed him too? Did she miss Aiden?

”Hmm ... Hurry home.” Anya did not know what to answer so that was the only answer that came out of her mouth.

”I'll be home tomorrow night.” Aiden replied. He didn't sound disappointed when Anya didn't say the same thing.

”I'll wait for you at home...” Anya said in a low voice.

”Hmm… Go to sleep. Good Night.” After saying that, Aiden ended the call.

Anya was silent for a moment after the phone was closed. She still couldn't believe what he heard.

Aiden said that he missed her…

She rolled on top of the bed, trying to calm the feelings in her heart. Then, she stopped by Aiden's bedside. She was on her stomach and her face touched the pillow that Aiden used. She could feel a chill from the place because no one had occupied it for the past two days.

For some reason that day, the bedroom felt much emptier than before. The room felt much quieter than before, even though she and Aiden didn't actually chat much when they met. Her current bed felt much bigger than before.

Did she miss Aiden too?
