Chapter 544 - Deep Sleep (1/2)

”Are you worried?” When he opened his eyes again, Aiden could see Anya's face clearly.

That face looked worried when looking at him….

”Even though we are not husband and wife anymore, I don't want anything bad to happen to you,” Anya said with a serious look. Even though they were ano longer married, at least they could become friends.

Aiden reached out his hand to caress Anya's face. ”I'll be fine as long as you are by my side. Anya, come back to me...”

”We can't go back to what we were before,” Anya looked away. She fastened her seat belt and started driving.

Anya didn't want to let her heart hurt again like before. She really didn't want to hate Aiden anymore because the man hadn't done anything wrong so far. Aiden was also a victim, just like her.

But that didn't mean Anya wanted to get back together with Aiden again.

What if the same bad thing that befell them before repeated itself? She didn't want her heart to be hurt a second time ...

Following directions from the GPS, she found a four-star hotel. Aiden headed straight to the reception desk and booked the best room on the top floor.

Seeing that Aiden only booked one room, Anya immediately took out her wallet. ”I want to book one more room...”

”I can't leave you alone,” Aiden immediately snatched Anya's wallet and took the room's card from the receptionist, then he pulled her hand towards the elevator.

”Aiden, let me go!” Anya tried to let go of her hand, but the man's grip was too strong.

”I'm going to sleep on the sofa. You can sleep on the bed,” Aiden said.

Anya was silent hearing that. She didn't want to share a room with Aiden.

Not that she didn't trust Aiden. She didn't believe in herself more than she couldn't trust Aiden…

”I won't do anything to you. I just don't want to let you be in the room alone,” Aiden said.

”We're divorced. We shouldn't stay in the same room. I'm used to living alone abroad. I'm fine by myself,” Anya said, trying to refuse him.

”You don't live alone abroad. I'll arrange your roommate,” Aiden pulled Anya's hand into the elevator and pressed the button.

”What?” Anya glared at Aiden in disbelief.

During her two years in France, Aiden never contacted her. Anya even thought that the man had deleted her number and blocked her contact.

But now she heard the man say that he'll arrange for her roommate abroad…

Aiden took Anya's hand until she arrived in the room. It was the nicest hotel in the area and they were in the best room so it was quite large.

A long sofa was placed in front of a large glass window, separated from the double bed by a wooden barrier.

”Please rest for half an hour. After that, we'll have dinner,” Aiden went straight to the sofa area and arranged his pillow.

”What time do we return to the orphanage again?” Anya asked.

”Around eight in the evening,” Aiden replied.

”Isn't it too late?”

”Hmm…” Aiden muttered without explaining further. Anya could only surrender and believe in him. She was sure Aiden already had a plan so she didn't continue to ask.

Aiden laid himself on the sofa, feeling a sharp pain in his temple. Then, he stretched out his hand to massage his head.

Anya was getting a glass of water when she saw Aiden massaging his head.

”Does your head hurt?” She approached Aiden and offered to massage him.

This time felt like two years ago, when Anya used to massage Aiden when the man got tired. In the past, she didn't know how to do massaging. She even had to find out and learn massage techniques from the internet to please Aiden.
