The two looked at Aimee in unison, and said, “Mikayla is only a freshman.”
“Then what’s the matter? They’re both of the legal age for marriage. If they want to, let them go.” Aimee said.
Casey said, “If Ash finds out about that, he’ll get you one tomorrow.”
Aimee laughed and said, “Then come.”
Matilda immediately took out her mobile phone, making a gesture to call Ash.
Seeing that Aimee was really not joking, she put the phone away resentfully.
Matilda said, “It’s better not to give him any help.”
Aimee said, “Do you think of me as some kind of evil sister who still controls about my sister’s affairs?”
Matilda said, “She’s too young. It’s better to let her focus on her studies first.”
Aimee said, “Then you can urge Averi. I think she would be very happy.”
“Beata told me before that River is going to propose.” Matilda said.
She and Beata had become friends on Twitter before, and the little girl was her fan, so she chatted with her if she had nothing to do.
“It’s really hard to imagine what it would be like for a man like River to propose,” Casey said.
Aimee and Matilda also thought about it, but they couldn’t imagine it at all.
Matilda said, “So, there is really no warning about love.”
Even she herself never imagined that one day she would have anything to do with this thing.
What was going on now? She was so passionate about love.
Day by day, everything seemed to be developing in a positive direction.
But, Aimee noticed that Patrick had been acting very strange lately, even Walter and Miles were acting weird around her. At first, Aimee thought it was just her imagination but after some time she realized something was off.
Aimee confronted Patrick about it and he couldn’t explain himself properly so she didn’t let him leave the house. This was the first time Aimee had acted this way towards him and Patrick found it quite surprising.
He hugged Aimee’s waist and said, “I’ll tell you later, okay?”
Aimee shook her head and said, “No.”
Patrick found this adorable and leaned down to kiss Aimee on the lips before saying, “Okay then come with me.”
Aimee looked at Patrick suspiciously for a moment before finally realizing where they were going.
“Patrick,” she asked as they got into the car. “What is this all about? Why didn’t you want me to know?”
Patrick hesitated for a moment before finally admitting that he didn’t want her involved in what was going on.
It wasn’t until they arrived at their destination that Aimee saw someone unexpected – Iris.
She had almost forgotten about Iris but now everything made sense as to why Patrick didn’t want her involved in whatever was happening.
After some silence between them both, Aimee finally asked if it was Iris who caused all of this trouble.
“Aimee,” Patrick took hold of her hand, pulling her closer to him. “We three brothers have agreed not to involve anyone else in this matter.”
But despite their agreement not to involve anyone else, somehow word got out anyway, which only added more stress onto an already tense situation.
Aimee adjusted her breath and said, “Don’t be so nervous. I’m fine.”
But, she was not gonna be fine.
As a result, Iris killed Camdyn indirectly because of her.
Something inside Aimee made she want to run at Iris and slap her.
She clenched her hands in a fist.
Patrick clutched Aimee’s hand and said, “She’s too tough and she’s not afraid of anything. It’s impossible to get something from her mouth.”
Patrick and the rest of them had been collecting evidence all these days.
“I’ll talk with Iris,” said Aimee determinedly but Patrick held onto his grip tighter than ever before saying,
“Leave it up us.”
One of the reasons for bringing Aimee here, of course, was that he didn’t want to hide it from Aimee, but he also didn’t want Aimee and Iris to face each other.
Aimee looked at Patrick and said, “Her goal, I think, is not to make things easier for Mikayla and me.”
So, perhaps, Iris would say something to her.
Patrick said, “No, I won’t allow it.”
Knowing what Iris would do to Aimee, how could he let Aimee confront her? How can this be!
Aimee said, “So it’s a dead end. Is it really going to be this long?”
She didn’t want her husband to watch Iris every day.
Patrick caught Aimee’s implication and chuckled. “Is that angry or jealous?” he asked.
Aimee looked up at Patrick who was asking the question knowingly.
Aimee looked at the person in front of her. It had been so long that she almost felt like she was seeing things. Iris had changed a lot, with her long curly hair now cut short and sharp. She looked a bit worn out, but also like someone seeking revenge.
Since Aimee walked in, Iris hadn’t reacted to anything. They seemed more like Iris was waiting for
Aimee to lash out at her hysterically.
But ultimately, it was Iris who couldn’t hold back. She glared at Aimee with hatred and satisfaction in her eyes.
“Does it hurt? Because of you, that old man is dead. Do you want to kill me?” she said.
Aimee lifted an eyelid and glanced at Iris before saying calmly, “I think you’re very childish.”
Did she really think those words could hurt her? Her mind must not be working properly.
Iris heard this and became furious as if she would strangle Aimee’s neck the next second. She didn’t understand how Aimee could remain so calm. Shouldn’t she hate her?
But this made everything seem like a joke to everyone else except for herself.
Aimee knew what was going on inside of Iris’ head all along, which was why she remained motionless while staring at her until finally noticing her intentions.
Iris was quick to notice this.
“Aimee, because of you, my family has been destroyed,” said Iris with malice in every word spoken from between gritted teeth.
“Now look where it has gotten you! Are you sad? Do you want to kill yourself?”
“Hahaha… this is just the beginning,” continued Iris menacingly.
“Everything about your life will be destroyed!”
“Well then,” replied Aimee nonchalantly. “Why don’t you tell me how exactly did everything go down?”
Iris opened up instinctively but then shut up abruptly after realizing what might happen if she spoke too much about what happened before…
“You trying to trap me? Do you think I’m going to say that?” asked iris who glared at Aimee and her eyes narrowed dangerously.
“I don’t care either way,” responded an indifferent-sounding voice coming from none other than Aimee.
After speaking, Aimee stood up, as if she really didn’t want to talk to her more.
This made Iris anxious.
She wanted to stop Aimee, but she wondered if she really stopped her, would she have fallen into her trap?
The two had different thoughts and had their own plans.
In the end, Iris still didn’t stop Aimee.
Aimee came out of the room and walked to Patrick’s side.
She said, “With her words, there will be actions later.”
Obviously, Iris didn’t care that she was in their hands now, which meant that there was someone behind her.
And that person was the one who would mess up the Hayden family.
Patrick said, “I’m afraid she won’t do anything.”
Hearing this, Aimee gave a low laugh and said, “If she knows what you’re planning, she’ll be pissed off.”
Patrick took Aimee’s hand and said, “Let’s go, let’s go back.”
Aimee nodded, obediently followed Patrick and left.
The two returned to the Hayden family together, and Casey asked strangely, “Where did you go?”
“What’s wrong?” Patrick asked.
“River came here just now and said he has something for you.” Casey said.
River came to find Patrick for a simple reason: there were some things that the Hayden family couldn’t do, but River could. Of course, River was doing this for a simpler reason: Averi. If he didn’t do it, then
Averi would have to do it herself. He wanted to take care of his own wife.
River was very stingy in this regard. After handing over the items to Patrick, River asked, “Do you want me to help you? Dealing with some people may require some extreme measures.”
Patrick said, “No need, I can handle it myself.”
