Chapter 1580 Why Must She Be Killed
After ending the call, he got dressed at once. His gaze darkened upon noticing the red stain on the bed right before he left.
Upon leaving the room, Alicia took the elevator downstairs. As she walked toward the exit, she did so slowly and would turn around intermittently to look, wondering if Aaron would come after her.
Much to her surprise, she actually saw him pursue her. Before she could even break into a smile, she watched him stride past her before driving off in his car.
With a frozen smile on her face, a wave of disappointment washed over her.
Finally, she dragged herself back to her dorm by taking a taxi.
Fortunately, there were no classes that day, so she could lie down for the whole day and rest.
As what happened between her and Aaron played through her mind, Alicia’s lips curled slightly. As long as she had feelings for him, it didn’t matter if he didn’t feel the same way. Hence, she was willing to satisfy him every time he felt the urge to do so, for he was the light in her life, just like the sun. Even though she might get burnt by being too close, she still wanted to stay by his side and hug him.
After leaving the hotel, Aaron headed straight to his mansion in Paelsford Manor.
‘‘Hand me the information you have found.’‘ He looked at the man in front of him with a grim expression.
The man complied by giving him what he asked for.
After going through the contents, his heart skipped a beat.
So, she’s responsible for Arielle’s death! But why did she want to kill her? Is it because of my feelings for Arielle? Or has she found out that Arielle is my sister?
Aaron clenched his fist so hard that his veins bulged.
Despite the urge to question her with the information, Aaron realized that it was useless, for he had no proof at all.
With that thought in mind, he slumped on the couch dejectedly.
After a long while, he looked at the man in front of him and instructed with a deep voice, ‘‘Go and collect the evidence.’‘
The man grunted in acknowledgment before leaving.
Subsequently, Aaron lit a cigarette and began puffing away.
‘‘Ari… Ari…’‘
As he gently closed his eyes, a tear streaked down the side of his cheek.
At that moment, he was confused about Arielle’s place in his heart.
He had feelings for her, but she was his elder sister. To deny those feelings would be to ignore how much he thought of her.
Just the thought of how abruptly she left the world and him caused an irrepressible pain to swell from within.
‘‘I will seek justice for you!’‘ His eyes sparkled with conviction the moment he opened them. As long as he could get his hands on the evidence, he would avenge Arielle regardless of how powerful the perpetrator was.
Meanwhile, in Jadeborough, Chanaea, a lady’s frosty voice rang out from over the phone, ‘‘Have the preparations been made?’‘
After hearing the reply, the lady knitted her brows. ‘‘Isn’t she just a woman? What use are you if you can’t even complete such a simple task?’‘
She added, ‘‘I’ll give you three more days. I want to see her in front of me by then!’‘ The moment she finished, the lady smashed her phone on the table.
She had wanted to resolve the matter as soon as possible so that she could return to the Duke’s side. If she were to be gone for too long, someone would likely take her place. Unlike other women who were good at flattery, the only advantage she had was her body. Other than that, she had no idea as to how to keep herself in his favor.
Having been with the Duke for five years, she had seen him go through tons of women during that period. Even though he kept her by his side, she never dared take it for granted, for she was worried that a single mistake would cost her her place.
