Her Hidden Crowns (Suzanne and Austin)

Chapter 283

Aaron nodded slightly, meeting Yasmine's gaze with a smile.

Yasmine planted her feet firmly on the floor and stated, "Come on, let's go get changed."

With that, she sprang up from her seat. Her action startled Aaron, who blurted out, "Slow down. Your legs don't hurt anymore?"

Waving him off dismissively, she responded, "I'm fine. They've healed."

To prove her point, she moved her legs slightly, but Aaron still looked unconvinced.

"Take it easy," he insisted.

Stepping forward, he gently took her hand and led her toward the walk-in closet.

Yasmine glanced at their intertwined hands, a smile curling at her lips. Then, as if suddenly remembering something, she looked up at him. "Oh, right. Dad's birthday is coming up. We need to start preparing."

It was an important event for the Hall family, something she couldn't afford to overlook.

Aaron turned back to her, nodding with a reassuring warmth in his gaze. "Don't worry, I've already made arrangements."

Yasmine's lips curved into a smile. With him, she never had to worry about these things. She could focus entirely on her career without distractions.

She sighed in admiration. "You're my strongest support. Life is so much easier with you around."

Aaron tightened his grip on her hand slightly, chuckling. "I could say the same about you."
