Chapter 144: The Fire!

After Aaron safely took Esme back into their bedroom, he quickly headed for the study where the old Lord might be waiting for him. Pushing open the doorway, Aaron found him standing at the window side crossing his arms behind as his momentum seemed little different than other days.

Closing off the door behind, he walked over to his side and bowed apologizly,

" Forgive me for keeping you waiting, uncle. I had some unfinished business.How long have you come here? Is something happened?"

Aaron asked and waited for his answer patiently but nothing came out for a while. Just when he thought of asking again, the old lord suddenly turned around to face him.

His gaze was furious and without giving an answer,his hand suddenly gave a tight slap on Aaron's face loudly.
