Chapter 49 She Did It On Purpose

Simone gave Aaron a meaningful look and asked, “Are you sure you want me to tell you?”

Aaror: nodded firmly. “Yes, I want to hear it.”

He wanted to see what excuse she would come up with to brush him off. What’s wrong with assessing her brother? It made him uncomfortable that she was refusing him every time.

Hearing Simone’s words, Jodie suddenly had a bad feeling and reached out to tug at Aaron’s sleeve, shaking her head to signal him not to ask further.

Simone noticed Jodie’s discreet actions.

Knowing how much Aaron doted on Jodie, he might actually drop the subject, so she preemptively. answered, “Alright, then. If you insist, I’ll satisfy your curiosity. First, I don’t assess close relatives. Second, I don’t assess colleagues, and third, I don’t assess myself.”

Jodie’s expression subtly paled, thinking that Simone must have done it on purpose. Since Aaron didn’t fit the second and third categories, it left only the first one.

Jodie regretted not stopping Aaron earlier but blamed him for persistently pestering Simone when she refused to assess him. Wasn’t that asking for trouble? Now, everyone would be surprised and curious about their relationship.

An idea emerged in her mind, and she casually reached for a peach from the table and started peeling it with a fruit knife.

As expected, apart from Zac, Leon, and Keira, who knew about their relationship, Eric, Leyla, and the others at the scene all looked shocked.

Leyla couldn’t help but ask in shock, “Are you guys related?”

But at that moment, Jodie suddenly yelled, “Ouch!”

Everyone turned to look at Jodie and saw that she had accidentally cut her index finger while peeling a peach, staining it red.

She looked at her finger in a way that seemed like she didn’t expect to cut herself and then cast a slightly distressed look at Aaron. “Aaron, my hand hurts.”

Upon seeing that, Aaron quickly took her injured finger and instinctively put it in his mouth to help stop the bleeding.

Meanwhile, Leon got up and went to the kitchen to fetch the pack of Band–Aids they hadn’t finished. from the cupboard. He gave it to Aaron. “Help her put this on.”

Only then did Aaron take Jodie’s finger out of his mouth and apply the Band–Aid for her.

With slightly teary eyes, Jodie said. “Thank you, Aaron.”

Then, she looked up at Leon and thanked him too. “Thank you, Mr. Foster.”
