The Girl He Craves novel (Sophie and Aiden)

Chapter 128

Aiden’s pov

It only takes seconds for my body to register the alien feeling of Lillian wrapping her slimy arms around

me.

Repulse. That’s all my body breathed while being wrapped around her arms.

I act quick, not wanting to give her the wrong idea.

Though I perhaps had given her the wrong idea long ago.

But surely the girl could’ve taken the hint that she was only just a one night stand. I didn’t even call her

the following day.

I step back, pushing her arms away from me when she tries to grab a hold of me again.

lite.

She was always so damn clingy.

“What are you doing here Lillian?” I asked trying to be po-

It was already weird she got back to New York the second Sergio wanted to merge the two companies.

Did she really think I would agree to that absurd idea?

I shivered in disgust by the thought. NôvelDrama.Org content.

I felt relieved, knowing that God was at least on my side by bringing Sophie back into my life.

If I hadn’t come up with the idea that we were engaged, then I’d probably would have been forced to

marry that clingy lizard.

It didn’t help that one night stand with her in the past made her even more clingy.

I had a suspicion she had been rejoicing when she heard that her father and Sergio thirsted for the two

companies to merge. She knew that she’d be the one to marry off to me.

“Can’t I come to see my close friend?” She asked inno- cently, looking at me beneath her lashes as

though I’d melt.

I walked around her and approached the desk.

“We haven’t been friends in a long time. Far less being ‘close.‘ I grumble, loosening my tie and setting

the file in my draw.

Lillian whirls around. “Why are you regarding me with such repulse? At the hospital you were nice to

me.”

I could hear it in her voice, she hadn’t expected my cold tone.

My eyes snap up to stare at her.

Don’t get me wrong, Lillian was a pretty woman, just not as beautiful as my Sophie. In the past she

could have never replaced Sophie, and she won’t now either.

“Yes because you were checking up on my son,” I said and then breathed out in annoyance when her

eyes drop in sad-ness.

“Lillian.” I grit out. “What we had only lasted for a couple of hours, you know what a one night stand

means right?”

I resisted the urge to pinch the skin between my brows.

Lillian whispered. “My brother knows about it Aiden. My father too. That’s why they thought it would’ve

been best for us to get married-

“You remember the beautiful woman that was by my side? The mother of my child? Or maybe you’ve

seen the blogs post about my newly engaged status to her. She’s my woman Lillian, mine. I love her

enough to not care about merging companies.” I sneered lowly.

I was rude, but she left me no choice but to be so.

“And I don’t give a fuck if your brother or your father knows about our once sexual entanglement. It was

in the past and it was clearly a mistake. Get over it Lillian, nothing Sergio, you, your brother or your dad

will do, will make me leave So- phie.”

I rolled my eyes when her eyes misted with fresh tears.

“I didn’t come here to fight Aiden,” She whispered but I ignored her.

Packing up my stuff, I looked at the time and walked around my desk.

I walked around her and opened the door, turning around to tell her to get out since she looked like her

feet were plant- ed there.

“I’m closing up my office Lillian.” I said curtly.

She turns around, her misty eyes snapping to mine.

I would have felt bad if I didn’t know Lillian’s tricks./

She was the spoilt brat of her family and she was used to getting what she wanted.

Now that she knew she couldn’t get me, she resorted to the tactic of being the crybaby to try to lure me

into a trap.

It won’t work.

She searches my eyes and then nods.

I push the door wider and ushered her out.

We walked in silence, which was welcoming.

But when we stepped into the elevator I wished I had made her go inside on her own, because now her

floral scent was suffocating me.

“How’s your son by the way? I forgot to ask.” She uttered, her head snapping to stare at the side of my

face.

I pushed my hands in my pocket, counting down the min- utes until those doors slide open and help me

out of this hell.

“He’s doing much better.” I responded curtly rocking on my heels back and forth in impatience.

If I had known that sleeping with this woman months ago would make her this clingy, I would’ve never.

This is what I get for sleeping around just because I was desperate to forget Sophie.

And clearly it was pointless seeing as I didn’t forget her at all.

“I could pass by and see how he’s doing if you want.” Lil- lian suggested.

I shook my head and sighed inwardly when the doors slide open. “That won’t be necessary, his mother

is taking good care of him.”

I stepped out of the elevator without waiting for her re- sponse and glared at the nosey employees that

I was itching to fire.

If only they spent more time doing their work instead of gossiping about others.

But that was just wishful thinking.

I had completely forgotten about Lillian and only remem- bered she was behind me when I stepped

outside of the building and she called out my name.

“Aiden,”

I rolled my eyes and ignored her while greeting the two bodyguards stationed at either side of the

building.

“Aiden,” Lillian grips my elbow trying to stop me from walking further.

I halt, taking a step back in shock.

I didn’t stop because she held my elbow, I stopped be- cause suddenly a white van skidded and

stopped in front of me.

Seconds later the back door opens rapidly and a swarm of paparazzi came out with cameras flashing

and questions slap- ping across my face.

“Oh my, Aiden,” Lillian squealed, coming beside me, grips my arm and pushes them between her

boobs as she presses herself to me.

“There are so many!” She yelped, pushing herself closer to me.

I lift my hands up, blocking my eyes from the flashes as I try to shrug her off.

Fuck.

Just great.
