Chapter 436: Dinner With In-Laws

Aaron entered the drawing room of the Hartz mansion, where the Hartz couple was present to welcome him.

"Welcome to the Hartz residence, Aiden," Grace’s mother said, smiling at him pleasantly.

Aaron simply hummed in response, and then Colin Hartz stepped forward to shake hands with him. The two men greeted each other, Aaron’s demeanor remaining cold and composed.

"Have a seat, Aiden," Colin said, as the two men settled on the sofa.

As her parents sat next to each other, Grace quickly sat beside Aaron, seizing the chance to finally be close to him. She couldn’t even remember being this near to him before—not enough to know what kind of perfume he used.

But then, she heard him.

"Would you shift a little away?"

Huh? Grace looked at him in confusion, only to hear him again.

"I like to have space around me to be comfortable. Otherwise, I feel suffocated."

Grace gritted her teeth but kept her calm at her mother’s signal and moved a little away from him.

"More," Aaron said.

"I’m your wife, in case you’re forgetting," she finally snapped. "We got married just yesterday."

"Not even twenty-four hours yet. So, we’re strangers," he said resolutely. "I take time to get comfortable with strangers."

Grace frowned and moved to the far corner of the sofa, glaring at him.

Colin Hartz was not pleased to see this, but his wife gestured for him to stay quiet.
