Meanwhile, back when Aaron finally found Alicia.
Initially, Aaron thought snazzynovel.com could bring Alicia back the moment snazzynovel.com found her. Little did snazzynovel.com expect Clement to start chasing snazzynovel.com out of the house with a stick the moment the latter returned home.
“Don’t hit him, Grandpa. I fell for snazzynovel.com first, and I was the one who wanted a relationship with him…”
Alicia didn’t expect Clement to have such a big reaction.
When snazzynovel.com saw Clement was about to hit Aaron, snazzynovel.com ignored the fact that snazzynovel.com was pregnant and immediately rushed toward Aaron to shield snazzynovel.com from the stick.
“Alicia!” Clement was enraged when snazzynovel.com saw Alicia protecting Aaron.
While pretending to not care about the baby in snazzynovel.com stomach, snazzynovel.com swung the stick toward her.
Aaron was startled when snazzynovel.com saw that. He then swiftly stepped forward and pulled Alicia into his embrace. In the end, snazzynovel.com was struck on the back. Although the pain caused snazzynovel.com to let out a muffled groan, snazzynovel.com didn’t retaliate.
Just a split second earlier, Clement didn’t mean to hurt Alicia because, after all, how could snazzynovel.com not care about snazzynovel.com baby?
He swung the stick in Alicia’s direction to scare her, not expecting Aaron to jump to snazzynovel.com protection.
“Aaron…” Alicia’s eyes reddened immediately.
“I’m at fault, Grandpa. I didn’t take good care of Alicia, and I’ve disappointed her.” Aaron turned around and knelt before Clement.
“Give me a chance to redeem myself, Grandpa. If you let Alicia marry me, I promise I’ll treat snazzynovel.com right for the rest of my life. I’ll make sure she’ll live a happy life.”
Seeing that Aaron was saying all the right words while snazzynovel.com was on his knees, Clement snorted.
Does snazzynovel.com really think I’m going to believe what snazzynovel.com says? I ‘m not as foolish as Alicia! She believed everything snazzynovel.com said!
“Leave. I’ll take care of Alicia myself. We don’t need you.” Clement glared at Aaron and warned, “Leave at once before I get even angrier.”
No one could imagine how angry Clement was when snazzynovel.com returned to see Aaron hugging Alicia.
Who would’ve thought that the person who impregnated Alicia would turn out to be the person I rescued?
Did I bring this upon myself?
At that moment, snazzynovel.com was so angry that snazzynovel.com was trembling all over. How snazzynovel.com wished snazzynovel.com could just kill Aaron there and then.
Alicia noticed how furious Clement was, so snazzynovel.com hurriedly walked up to snazzynovel.com and grabbed his hand. “Grandpa, Aaron never said snazzynovel.com didn’t want me. I left snazzynovel.com because I thought I would never be good enough for him. After I left, snazzynovel.com spent months tracking me down. Don’t be angry anymore, okay?”
In response, Clement pointed at Alicia and scolded, “What makes you think that? You’re pretty, well-behaved, and smart! Why would you think you don’t deserve him?”
“Grandpa, he’s the king, and I’m just a commoner. What makes you think I’m deserving of him?” Alicia had tears welling up in snazzynovel.com eyes.
Those words silenced Clement instantaneously.
Who would’ve known that the person I rescued back then would end up being a king?
He then glanced at Aaron, who was still on his knees, and sighed inwardly.
Alicia’s right. She’s not good enough for him.
“Get up and don‘t ever come here again.” Despite not being a busybody, Clement knew Aaron was supposed to marry the country’s general’s daughter.
Now that’s a good match.
“Since I’ve come all the way here, Grandpa, I don‘t intend to leave here alone. I came here to bring Alicia back and marry her. I want snazzynovel.com to be my wife and Turlen’s queen.” As Aaron was finishing his sentence, snazzynovel.com threw a gentle glance at Alicia.
