###Chapter 604 Please Love Me Sincerely And Passionately – Part 14

I didn't hate Linda, at least for now. She was excellent and she deserved to be loved and cared for.

When we came out of the bathroom, Jordan, Kian, and Nicole were both in the hall.

Jordan sat on the rest sofa in the hall smoking, waving the smoke away, and so on, which made him look particularly cold.

Nicole returned to her usual innocence and romance, pulling Kian and saying, "Brother, the relationship between Miss Ivelle and General Aaron seems to be quite good. I think Boss Aaron is very special to Miss Ivelle."

Kian glanced at Jordan, who was smoking, and then looked at Nicole and said happily, "Don't talk nonsense!"

Nicole didn't seem to notice the coldness of Jordan and continued, "I'm not talking nonsense. I just saw President Aaron's eyes on Miss Ivelle all the time at dinner. I think Miss Ivelle also secretly looked at him from time to time. I just felt that the relationship between these two people was quite good."

Looked at Aaron?

I almost laughed.

"Miss Nicole, did you really eat your meal? Or you just observed me carefully? Have you noticed how many shrimps your brother has peeled for you?" I asked.

I walked up to Jordan.

When I saw him looking up at me, I grabbed the cigarette in his hand, pinched it out, and threw it into the dustbin. I looked at him and said, "Just quit smoking!"

Jordan smiled and got up to hold me by my waist. "Okay, whatever you say!"

Maybe, they didn't expect me to appear suddenly. Nicole froze a little. A moment later, she looked at Kian and said, "Kian, what I said just now, I didn't mean that. I just..."

Kian comforted her, "It's okay, I know you're just saying it and didn't mean it. It's okay!"

I almost laughed, but I held back. I sometimes really understood why Linda disliked me whenever I become pretentious.

Because it looked really disgusting.

After dinner, it was getting late. Jordan and I walked near the hotel for a while and then went back.

After a busy day, I was already sleepy and tired. I had enough to eat and drink in the morning. I took a bath and fell asleep on the bed.

I vaguely heard said something to me, but I was too sleepy to hear clearly. I was feeling very dizzy, so I went to sleep right away when I lay on the bed.

The next day came.

Counting the days, the National Day is coming soon. Although it was impossible to know if the project was going to be completed in a short amount of time.

But if the plan was executed properly, we should be able to get some work done as soon as possible in the next few days.

Seeing that there was no trace of Jordan on the bed, there was a note on the nightstand that read, "I'm going to the city. If I have something to do, remember to eat on time!"

It looked like he left early.

After getting up and cleaning up, I went directly to the base. Because the third party joined, the efficiency of the workers in the base was a little slow, mainly because the third-party focused on the quality, not the progress. So the workers tried their best to sit down and examine all the details of the base.

It was also because of this that the workload would naturally increase.

Aaron was wearing a helmet on the construction site. After looking around the base, he went straight to the office to find me.

He looked at me and asked, "Are you in charge of this project?"

Seeing that he was serious, I nodded, "Yes!"

He frowned slightly and was silent for a moment. "There are some details we may want to talk about!"

"What's the matter?"

"It's not a big problem, but if we don't deal with it, we can't continue with the later technology. In addition, the building of your machine base was very strange. Have you built a garage or a repository underground?"

I was confused for a moment and said, "There is no garage or storage under that base. What are you talking about?"

He frowned slightly. "In a building like that, there's probably something in it!"

He probably thought of something, but he said nothing more. After a moment of silence, he looked at me and said, "Let's have lunch together."

I shook my head. "No, I have..."

"Are you just going to avoid me all the time?" He raised his eyebrows. "After all, we are partners. I think it's not a shady thing for partners to have dinner with each other and talk about business, is it not?"

Knowing his temper, if I put it off like this, he would probably give me a hard time. Simply, I nodded, "Well, there is a restaurant at the back of the base for a while, but it's not very tasty. I can barely fill my stomach because I still have work in the afternoon. I have to work for a much longer time, so maybe I can eat now."

He nodded. "Yes!"

The restaurant at the back of the base was not very big, because it was only temporary. It was built only for the convenience of employees working on the base since the hotel was too far from their workplace. It took more than an hour to run back and forth, and so much time was wasted on the way. I wanted to let the staff use that time to rest.

So William asked people to set up a temporary restaurant at the back of the base and find an aunt to cook for the staff.

Looking for a seat, I did not know where Aaron got the orange juice he was handing to me. He simply said, "Freshly squeezed!"

I nodded and replied, "Thank you!"

After the meal, I bowed my head and didn't speak much. I ate quietly and Aaron seemed to have nothing to say anyway.

After dinner, I still have to go to work for a while. I wanted to go back to the office to have a rest, but he said, "You have been here for a long time now, so you might as well show me around the entire building."

I pursed my lips and said faintly, "You can go by yourself. There are fruit groves all around here." Then I stood up to go back to the office.

He grabbed my wrist, and I frowned at him. "Let go!"

He said indifferently, "I know you don't want to see me now, and you don't want to stay with me. But to some extent, as a third-party manager, Miss Ivelle, do you have any reason not to take me around the base? Why can't I take a look at the situation of our project"

"Stop pretending that it's about business when you actually have private interests!" I opened my mouth and shook off his hand. "Fine, let's go!"

There were pear trees near the base. Most of the pears were ripe and some fruit growers were picking them. It was estimated that they were going to sell them on the market.

After walking a long way, Aaron said, "You don't have to treat me like this, Ivelle. I don't want to destroy your happiness. If I can, I hope we can get along well with each other, okay?"

I stopped to look at him and said, "Do you think we can get along well now?"

He looked at me intently. His handsome face was showing no emotion, but he seemed sincere. "I know that you don't want me to pester you because you are afraid that I will disturb the happiness of you and Jordan. My love doesn't mean anything to you. You don't have to say that. I know it all!"

I pursed my lips and didn't reply, because he was actually right.

After a pause, he said, "In fact, I want you to be happy more than anyone else. I originally thought that Jordan was very cold and emotionless, that he could not give you happiness. That's why I wanted to give you happiness in my own way. But now when I see Jordan with you, it's not as bad as I thought. Unexpectedly, why couldn't I do that for you? So I figured out what should I do. In the future, I will protect you as a friend. As long as you are happy, I will no longer disturb your life."
