Chương 55: Let's get married then

"Ahem Sorry for interrupting…" Jess apologized awkwardly.

Genesis withdrew her hands and took a step back. Aiden frowned in displeasure. He wanted to hear what she had to say. He felt like she was going to finally open up but...sigh what could he do now?

Genesis looked at the disappointment in his face and felt guilty. "Jess you are here…." Genesis walked towards her and smiled. "Yes. I came to pick up what you told me yesterday." Jess answered feeling guilty for interrupting their moment.

"Hi!" Jess greeted Aiden awkwardly and he just sent her a nod in response.

Genesis sighed and took out the envelope from her purse. " Okay. Here you go take the medicine on time. At noon every day." Genesis gave her a hidden meaning through her words. Jess nodded in understanding and now she knew when to release the information in the envelope to the public.

"Alright. Thank you for that. Bye Mr.Miller!" Jess bid them goodbye and glanced at the cameras above them. By doing this she confirmed the reason why Genesis used a different way to give her orders. Jess gave Genesis a wink and a teasing smile before she left.

Genesis rolled her eyes and once Jess was gone she was stuck. She glanced at Aide, but she didn't say a word. Aiden looked down at her and sighed. He kissed her forehead and held her hand. He led her down the hall until they reached the exit. Everything was in silence and Genesis didn't like that.

It wasn't that comfortable silence she would have with him sometimes but this time it was tense. She glanced at him again, trying to read his expressions. Aiden caught her glance and lifted an eyebrow. Genesis stopped walking and didn't stop their eye contact. She let go of his hand and placed it on his cheek.

"What are you doing to me?" She asked. She closed her eyes and hugged his waist. She had asked the same question he did. Aiden pursed his lips and hugged her back. "The goal is to make you fall in love with…." He suggested. "Is it working?" He joked but she took it seriously.

"En…" She responded and held his hand while she hugged him. 'Is that a yes?' He wondered. " The package contains everything about him. I gave it to Jess so she can release it. Although I can't tell you how I feel….I can assure you that Andrew is not in my heart at the moment." she told him sincerely.

"At the moment? What about the future?." He asked pretending not to believe her, but in reality, he just wanted reassurance." Genesis pouted. " Not now and not in the future." She stared at him fiercely and held onto his suit. She made him lean closer to her face because he's taller than her.

"Listen to me very closely. I have moved on. So don't be jealous anymore okay?" She informed him quite sternly. Aiden arched an eyebrow and lifted her chin. "Me jealous? What makes you say that?" He asked.

Genesis gritted her teeth. "Because you like me." She answered proudly. " I do?" He shrugged and started walking forward. Genesis fumed and caught up to him quickly. She pulled his sleeve and glared at him. "What do you mean by that?" She asked.

"You said you liked me not too long ago. Are you taking your words back?" She questioned. "Ah! So you do know I like you." He mused.

"I- hey don't play this trick on me I'm being serious here." She defended. "Fine, then why are you around your ex so much? Could it be that you are purposely trying to make me jealous?" He assumed with a playful grin.

Genesis was stunned. 'There is no way I'm getting accused like this!' She thought. "Heh is it working Mr.Miller. Did I make you jealous? Admit it, I did didn't I?" She grinned back with confidence. Aiden narrowed his eyes.

He walked towards her and suddenly pulled her over his shoulder. "Ah! What are you doing!" She shouted in shock. "We are going home." He declared. "That way you won't have to work so hard on making me jealous Mrs.Miller." He replied making her stunned.

" We are not yet married!" She reminded him of noticing the way she called her 'Mrs.Miller' with great confidence. He stayed silent until he opened the car door and placed her on the passenger's seat. He placed the seatbelt over her body and kissed the tip of her nose. "Yet." He replied with a smirk.

"That's not how it works. She mumbled. "Now that we are in this topic I have something to tell you," Genesis told him. Aiden sighed. "Go ahead" He replied and closed the door. He walked around the car and opened the driver's seat. "When I went to visit Aunt Grace she told me something about our engagement." She started explaining everything and when she was done she looked at him for a response.

Aiden frowned. "She's being pressured by the members of the board?" He asked and put his seatbelt on. Genesis nodded in response and sighed. "Therefore, you want to speed up our marriage date..." He concluded.

"I never said that!" She defended herself. Aiden laughed. "Oh, so you want to break the engagement with me then..." He assumed wrongly because he wanted an answer from her. "No that's not what- " She stopped. 'Why do I feel like this is a trick question?' She wondered and narrowed her eyes.

She decided not to answer but his response caught her off guard. "Since my fiance wants to marry me then I have no choice but to cooperate."

When he turned the car on he glanced at her and smiled.

"Let's go get married then. I can call you Mrs.Miller after right?' He asked and put his seatbelt on. Genesis scoffed. "Ignore him." She mumbled.

"You don't believe me? Let's go and get our marriage certificates then." He answered and started driving. "What?! Now?' She was completely shocked. "Stop uttering nonsense!"" She scolded him.

"It's not nonsense and yes NOW." He responded. Genesis shook her head not believing a word. She turned to face the scenery outside and ignored him.

Aiden smirked and continued driving nonchalantly.

It wasn't until the car parked right in front of the marriage registration office that she winded her eyes. She turned to face him in utter disbelief.

So he wasn't joking!
