Chapter 28~ Shocking news

Serena’s eyes lit up when she heard Aaron’s deep voice. He sounded angry and she was sure it was because he had witnessed how Tessa had viciously slapped her.

Her heart soared as she internally thought, ‘he still loves me! Why else would he be so angry? I’m sure he’s just tolerating this bitch because of those annoying little bastards!”

She decided to go all out and cried harder. Her performance was on point since she was determined to get rid of Tessa for good.

A few of the customers in the coffee shop began to pay attention to what was happening at that table. When Serena noticed this, a hidden smirk crossed her lips. So far, everything had been going according to plan.

She forced more tears out and glanced up at Aaron with puppy eyes, saying, “It’s not her fault, Aaron. I just wanted to know her better because she’s the mother of your kids but she suddenly began to scream at me. When I asked what was wrong, she slapped me.”

Serena purposely mentioned the kids so that it looked like she would be Aaron’s wife and people would think she had wholeheartedly accepted his children.

Aaron’s frown deepened as he assessed the situation. He had been nearby because he wanted to surprise Tessa with lunch when he suddenly received a text from a strange number.

His blood boiled when he realised it was from Serena and he felt worried for Tessa. This was why he told Enock to rush to the address that Serena had included in the text.

On his way, his stomach kept twisting and turning. His heart had jumped to his throat as fear crept into him. He happened to enter the shop the moment Tessa slapped Serena

Although he was proud that Tessa could hold her own, he was worried about her.

He walked towards the table and bent over when he reached Tessa’s side. Cupping her cheeks, he moved her head to face him, tilting it this way and that as if he was checking for injuries.

“Are you ok?” He asked her anxiously.

Tessa nodded and smiled at him, responding, “I’m fine. I just got angry.”

She then clenched her hand and winced because it hurt a little.

“What’s wrong?” Aaron inquired, his eyes falling on her clenched hand. “Are you in pain?”

“Yes, I think I used a lot of force,” she mumbled, pouting her lips.

Aaron grabbed her hand and said, “Let me see.”

He then began to massage her hand gently before bringing it to his lips and blowing on it. I’m sorry. It must hurt very much. I’ll massage it with some pain balm later.”

At his words and actions, Tessa felt her heart do a flip. She couldn’t believe what was happening. When she heard his voice, she thought he would rush towards Serena because he had been in love with her for a long time.

Looking at him now, it was as if Serena wasn’t at the same table. Tessa noticed how his attention

was solely on her. He kept his eyes on her as he massaged her palm and blew hot air on it

This made her heart feel warm

Meanwhile, Serena’s eyes widened at the turn of events. She didn’t expect Aaron not to care about her at all. He loved her! Seeing him treat Tessa with so much love and care made a flare of jealousy rush through her.
