Bab 234: After Harrow

There was nothing Amelia could say to dissuade him. Not even promises that she would take a pregnancy test on her own managed to influence him, and since Aiden was firmly in control of the wheel, Amelia could only give in.

The silence was far too grim for her liking, and she cleared her throat in a bid to break the tension. 

"I'm surprised that you're so skilled at fighting people," Amelia confessed, glancing at Aiden from the corner of her eyes. "Caleb hired so many people, but all of them couldn't stand up against you. I must say, that's really impressive. Did you learn to fight from somewhere?"

The corner of Aiden's mouth lifted into a small smirk at Amelia's praise. He knew this was her attempt at lightening the situation, and since it played to his strengths, he might as well indulge her and brag― just a bit.
