“Go away!” Aaron pushed the woman leaning close to him aside in disgust.
The woman widened her eyes in panic, not knowing what she had done wrong. Immediately, she
turned and walked out of the mansion.
Click. However, the moment before Aaron stepped out of the mansion, the sound of a gun being
unlocked echoed in the doorway.
Aaron instantly turned to look in the direction of the sound.
Right then, a bodyguard was aiming a gun at him.
Aaron narrowed his beautiful, blue eyes. A cold glint flashed across his gaze. It was so sharp that it
pierced through the bodyguard’s heart like a shard of ice.
However, that bodyguard was well-trained. He remained calm and unbothered as if he had gotten used
to Aaron’s cold stare. Then, he began to warn like a robot, “Apologies, Mr. Aaron. Mr. Anderson said
that you can’t leave the mansion.”
Aaron had been stopped by the bodyguard multiple times on that day. He could not endure it anymore.
“What if I insist on leaving?”
“Then I can only follow Mr. Anderson’s order to make you stay forcefully,” the bodyguard replied.
Aaron snorted. “I don’t care. I’m going to leave today!”
With that said, he immediately took another two steps forward.
As soon as he walked out of the door, a loud gunshot rang out.
Bang!
Aaron shifted his body to the left in reflex. His movement was as fast as a bolt of lightning.
The next second, a hole appeared in the door behind
him.
Aaron frowned as he stared at the hole. If it wasn’t because of his fast reaction speed just now, he
might already get shot in his chest.
“Are you crazy?” He turned to glare at the bodyguard. “Do you know who you are shooting?”
Again, the bodyguard replied like a robot, “Mr. Anderson has instructed us not to let you leave before
his cooperation with Duke ends. You’re not allowed to step out of the mansion, even if we have to kill
you. Mr. Aaron, please go back inside.”
“Y-You…” Aaron got so furious that he began to tremble.
Suddenly, the bodyguard froze as he put down the gun slowly. He turned around and bowed politely at
the middle-aged man behind him. “Mr. Anderson.”
The rest of the bodyguards bowed and shouted in unison, “Your Majesty.”
Aaron lifted his eyes in shock. His father, Anderson, was walking toward them arrogantly.
Although Anderson was in his middle ages, he did not look old at all. His exquisite facial features
exuded a regal and imposing aura of a matured man.
Aaron lowered his eyes as he bowed toward him reluctantly. “Father.”
Although he despised Anderson a lot, he was afraid of him too.
Anderson nodded as he handed a document to Aaron without saying anything.
Seeing that, Aaron quickly took over the document.
“Aren’t you trying to get out of here? I’ll give you an opportunity to do so. Investigate the woman in the
document for me,” Anderson said calmly.
Aaron instantly opened the document upon knowing that he could finally leave.
There was a picture of Arielle on the first page of the document. Oh, my kitten…
For some reason, Aaron felt that he was destined to be with Arielle every time he saw her face.
Perhaps, this is fate.
Aaron looked at Anderson confusedly and asked, “Father, why do you want me to investigate her? Is it
because of the explosion on the cruise back then?”
Anderson furrowed his brows, feeling puzzled. “What explosion?”
Aaron was even more surprised. “If you don’t know about the explosion on the cruise, then why do you
want to investigate her?”
“You don’t need to know about that.” Anderson narrowed his eyes impatiently. “Try to get her DNA after
you found her, as well as the man’s DNA on the following page. Find out as much information about
that girl. I want to know everything about her.”
