The CEO’s Surrogate Wife

"What?" Aileen is puzzled, she gazes at Aaron weirdly, she looks a bit hopeful and she doesn't even notice it herself.

Aaron is going to say something when he suddenly notices that she is in a formal dress, her white and smooth shoulder exposed, his heart tickles. He then takes off his jacket impatiently and puts it over her shoulder.

"You're wearing so little even when it's so cold."

Aileen feels happy hearing him even though he is scolding her.

"I thought you have something important to tell me, are you here to chew me out instead, telling me that my dress is too exposing?" Aileen feels a bit bummed out, hence she purposely teases him.

Aaron can't think of a good comeback, he then says, "I always thought that I like to fool around and women are nothing to me, but I felt it the moment I knew about your engagement, I think I really like you. I was never willing to admit it all these times because you are also fooling around with other guys all the time."

"Does this count as a confession? Why does it feel like I'm getting reprimanded instead?" Aileen is agonized and upset after hearing him.

Aileen isn't expecting this, she thinks that maybe he is just fooling around as always. But upon hearing him she feels happy, images of Aaron come flashing in her mind. She was elated too when Richard proposed to her back then, but the feeling of happiness is different in this regard.

She has made her decision, her love towards Richard is just gratefulness and admiration, he rescued her before and hence she thinks that she likes him. But with Aaron, things can be more down-to-earth, maybe he is the one that she can entrust her life with instead.
