Chapter 404: Chapter 404 Play the Game Slowly

To be honest, Aaliyah found other men mediocre.

Because her uncle Jamie was so handsome.

Many rich young men chased Aaliyah, but she did not like any of them. She was only fascinated by the illegitimate child that the Corben family had just brought back.

Everyone said Kenyon was not good enough for her.

Although the Corben family was prominent, Kenyon was only Preston’s illegitimate child. Kenyon was awkward in the family.

The successor of the Corben family, who was Kenyon’s eldest brother, was already in his forties.

Suddenly having a younger brother who was in his twenties was not something to be bragged about.

Although Kenyon’s eldest brother strongly opposed taking Kenyon back, Preston insisted.

At a banquet, Aaliyah met Kenyon, and she fell for him immediately. She couldn’t hold back her feelings.

She told Jamie about it, and the Corben family quickly suggested she should go on a date with Kenyon.

Aaliyah looked at Kenyon’s clear and bright eyes, and her heart was filled with love. She mustered up the courage to scoop up a spoonful of food to Kenyon’s mouth.

"Kenyon, do you want to have a taste?"

Kenyon’s eyes were unfocused, and Aaliyah didn’t know what he was looking at.

Aaliyah blushed and touched his lips with the spoon. She said shyly, "Kenyon, you should eat now."

The next second!

Clank!

The spoon was slapped to the ground!

Aaliyah froze. The feeling of her finger being hit was so distinct.

She looked at Kenyon in disbelief. Could it be that Kenyon had slapped off her spoon?

Kenyon’s gaze was still not on Aaliyah. He gulped and said, "Sorry, I didn’t pay attention."

Aaliyah’s embarrassed expression softened a little.

Fortunately, he didn’t do it on purpose.

The noise caught Jamie’s attention.

"Aaliyah, what’s going on?"

He asked Aaliyah, but his eyes were cold as he looked at Kenyon.

Aaliyah smiled and said, "It’s okay. I loosened my hold on the spoon and got food on my clothes. I’m going to change."

Aaliyah cared about her appearance a lot, so she didn’t want any stains on herself.

Therefore, when she went out, she would always bring spare clothes in the car.

She looked at Kenyon coquettishly and said, "Kenyon, can you help me get the clothes?"

Kenyon’s gaze fell on Ellen’s red lips as he watched her eat chicken soup, as if it was some sort of delicacy.

Kenyon had difficulty breathing!

Kenyon gave a meaningless chuckle, took the key, and left.

Jamie’s gaze never left the young man.

Kenyon was much more composed than before.

He pulled his tie and loosened it. He looked at Aaliyah expressionlessly and said.

"Aaliyah, don’t take him seriously. He is not good enough for you!"

In an instant, Ellen tightened her grip on the spoon.

Aaliyah was not happy to hear that. She pouted and said, "Jamie, don’t say that about Kenyon. He is kind and gentlemanly. He treats me well."

In fact, they had just gotten to know each other.

Kenyon had only spoken three sentences to her.

He was cold to Aaliyah.

But when a woman was in love, she would indulge in fantasies and lie to herself.

Jamie raised his eyebrows and glanced at Ellen who was drinking soup with her head held low. He curled his lips and said, "He treats you well? How so?"

Aaliyah didn’t know how to reply and could only lower her head shyly. "Jamie, you are so annoying. Why do you have to know everything?"

Jamie played with the thin cigarette in his hand and said in a low voice.

"Since you are happy, let him play with you. Anyway, guys like him always need women."

"Jamie, what are you talking about?"

Aaliyah’s heart lurched, and she was afraid Kenyon would hear it when he came in.

Besides, there were other people here.

She did not like it when Jamie looked down on Kenyon so much.

Ellen clenched her fists tighter, and the pain in her chest became stronger. She was disgusted by Jamie.

Jamie looked at Ellen’s white knuckles and said word by word.

"An illegitimate child wants to be in the McBride family. He would be lucky to serve you."

"Jamie, keep your voice down!"

Aaliyah saw Kenyon walk in from the corner of her eye and felt a little guilty.

"Is it comfortable for him to serve you?" Jamie suddenly asked Ellen.

From the look in his eyes and the tilting of his head to the tone of his voice, he was questioning Ellen.

Aaliyah was puzzled. Just as she was about to speak, she was interrupted by a series of coughs.

"Cough, cough, cough."

Ellen’s face was flushed red, and she kept coughing.

Jamie got closer and reached out to stroke her back. His tone was a little cold.

"What’s the hurry? We have to play the game slowly."

He inexplicably said that.

"Bah..."

Ellen suddenly let out a retching sound.

Jamie’s calm expression instantly changed.

The next second, Ellen vomited.

She vomited on him!

The food in the vomit hadn’t been digested.

Jamie looked sullen.

Ellen’s stomach was uncomfortable as she panted, "Sorry."

Before she could finish her sentence, she retched again.

"Ugh!"

She quickly got up, covered her mouth, and ran to the bathroom.

Jamie smelled the vomit on his clothes, and his handsome face was cold and sour.

"Sir, we have an emergency room. You can take a bath there. Do you want to go in and change?"

Jamie nodded with a cold face.

The waiter went to the car to get clothes, and Jamie changed his clothes with a long face.

Aaliyah also went to the emergency room to change her clothes.

Ellen threw up everything in the bathroom!

However, the sick feeling still lingered.

When she came out to wash her face, she took a cup to rinse her mouth and splashed water on her face, trying to ease her blush.

When she looked up again, a delicate and pretty face appeared in the mirror.

Kenyon leaned against the wall frame and placed one hand in his pocket, as if he was waiting for her.

It was silent, and no one spoke.

They looked at each other silently through the mirror.

Ellen looked at the man’s face and thought of her life abroad.

Kenyon had often come to cook for her when he had been free on the weekend. He had also taken care of the child.

Although he was young, he was good at looking after children.

Ellen did not dare to touch that soft, boneless little thing, but Kenyon was able to do it with ease.

Therefore, Bobby was on intimate terms with him.

Now Ellen felt she was not worthy of that cozy life.

Her parents were watching her from above.

They were waiting for her to get them justice.

Behind Ellen, Kenyon suddenly said, "Ellen, I didn’t."

Ellen’s heart started to thump.

She knew what he wanted to say from the short sentence.

After many years of tacit understanding, Kenyon knew she understood.

He was telling her he did not have any romantic feelings for other women.

Even if she did not need his explanation, he still wanted to say it.

Kenyon took a step forward and looked at the woman in the mirror. He said.

"Ellen, I will never betray you!"

The young heartbeat was hot and intense.

Even the promise was burning hot.

But Ellen did not dare to listen to it or think about it.

The path she took was full of dangers and obstacles.

She should not involve anyone anymore!

Ellen heard herself say coldly, "Kenyon, how you are is none of my business!"
