Chapter 17
Aiden POV
I left Linnea in the room so that she can rest for a while. I grabbed some wine and poured into the glass when suddenly my phone rang and saw it was Hunter.
"Aiden." he said seriously.
"What do you want? Is it about Linnea? I just borrowed her.” I said.
"I'm not kidding Aiden. What do you need to get Linnea back to me."
"Oh is that so? It looks like you're in love with that woman to give me what I want just to bring her back to you again." I smiled.
"I will do everything for Linnea so whatever you want I will give it." The voice of Hunter was full of determination.
"That's good to hear that Hunter, if that's what you want. Give me all the names of your transactions and business investors in exchange for Linnea." I said to him, let's see if he will do it.
He even heard Hunter's sigh on the other line so he couldn't help but grin, he already knew what the outcome of their conversation would be.
"Let's see now what you will choose, Hunter, your business or Linnea." - I thought to myself.
FASTFORWARD
It's been a month since Aiden is with Linnea and until now he hasn't sent her back home. He tried to talk to her but she just didn't want to listen. She also asked him if she could call and talk to Hunter but he didn’t allow her. Aiden doesn't want Hunter to track where they are.
Linnea couldn't help but be annoyed because she felt like Aiden was just playing with her, using her and her body when the young man wanted it. She is also ashamed of herself because she feels like she was a prostitute because two billioanires are using her.
She couldn't do anything because she couldn't handle Aiden and she also didn't know how to escape because she didn't know where they were. She just prayed that day would come that Hunter would track them and save her.
Soon the door opened and it spat out Aiden who was with the old woman. "Linnea, this is Nay Belen, she has been serving me for a long time since my parents died. I treated her not as my nanny but as a second mother also." he said to me pertaining to the old woman he is with.
Linnea smiled. "Hello."
The old woman greeted her also and after that Aiden left because she had something to do.
"Since Aiden left I will just go to the kitchen to cook some food.” Nay Belen suddenly said.
"'ll just help you prepare food." Linnea said.
"It's okay with me so that we can talk and get to know each other.” the old woman response
Linnea is happy because she has someone to be with now somehow especially when Aiden leaves.
"You know Linnea even though I just saw you now I feel like you're a good person. Ever since Aiden brought you here he became happy again, that's what the rest of his men said. Not like before that he even overcame the veil of heaven and earth. He always mentioned you to me so I really want to see you and get to know you, thankfully he brought me here now where you are. "
Linnea was surprised by what the woman said. "Really? I wonder what they were saying about me then." she said laughing.
"Come here and taste this. Tell me if it's okay." the old man dragged her closer.
Linnea immediately took a small bowl and spoon and scooped up a little. "Hmmm, it's delicious. I didn't know you were so good at cooking."
“I’m so glad that you like Linnea, I hope Aiden likes it too. "She said sadly.
"Cheer up Nay Belene I’m sure he'll definitely eat that." Linnea said positively and the old woman smiled.
"You know he is not a showy person at all, that's why you can determine whether he likes certain things or not.." said the lady who turned me around.
"Who?" Linnea asked.
"Aiden." she answered shortly.
The girl didn't say a word but she thought that she didn't know if she would believe what the lady said that Aiden was kind, because for her they were just the same as Hunter.
"Ahm, can I ask Belen?" Linnea said.
"Sure, what is it?" the old woman replied.
"Do you know Hunter?"
"Are you referring to Hunter Silvestre?" the lady assured and Linnea nodded.
"I don't know what's wrong with the two of them, since I met them they've been always fighting.” Linnea said.
"They used to be close, they treated each other as brothers. Aiden wants to be like Hunter, he idolized him so much. But when Aiden’s parents died everything changed and he keeps blaming Hunter for the death of his parents.”
Linnea was surprised at the revelation she found out. She didn't know that there was a deep source of the quarrel between the two, she thought it was just a simple fight.
"Why? Do you think it's all Hunter's fault?" Linnea asked, she was interested to know the past of the two because she was hoping they would get along.
“All I know is that Hunter was innocent of the death of Aiden’s parents, maybe you know the illegal businesses they have as well as Aiden’s Dad, he died in a transaction and Aiden thought that Hunter was to blame for that and because of what happened, his Mom also had a heart attack so Aiden became orphaned. " the old woman explained.
Linnea just smiled and started eating accompanied by Nay Belen.
