Memories of the Night

COMPLETED His business rivals drugged a cold-hearted and handsome CEO, and the medicine intoxicated his whole body. The only way to cure him is through sexual contact. He went to the hospital to have his antidote, and a young nursing student who substituted someone to save this mysterious man fell into his trap. The ordeal lasted for three nights in a row. The man disappeared like he never existed before. After how many years, while she gradually discovers the mystery of her father's death, they meet again. For four years, he barely slept through full nights, and he developed severe insomnia caused by the drug. Accidentally, he accused her of being a thief. He captured and imprisoned her; however, vague memories of the scent and woman's body that served him during his struggling moment keeps haunting him. The smell of her body is like magic, gradually calming his restless nerve and making him sleep. He possessed her immediately and promised not to let her go the time he laid his eyes on her. He discovered she is the same woman who had become his antidote that night, yet he concealed the truth because she strives to flee away from him. No wonder he got a sense of déjà vu when he first saw her and smelled her fragrance. No wonder he was so enamored by her and her body. It turns out that she's the woman he often dreams about, the first significant woman in his life. The woman he is longing for and his beautiful nightmare. He fell in love with her and does all means to make her his wife. She wanted her freedom, and she refused him several times. The painful memory of the past keeps haunting her, and she promised to take revenge on a man who assaulted her four years ago. Would she fall in love with the man who takes advantage of her that night? Does the mysterious man, love at first sight, will change their fate? How long could he stand against her hatred to win her trust and love? Special Note: If you are looking for a sweet contemporary-romance genre, this novel doesn't have that kind of plot. Most plots of my novel talk about mystery, suspense, and a slice of life. Often FL starts a slow pace of development, from weak to strong.

Chapter 60: Someone’s Girlfriend

It's when Katrina notices the lipstick on Aaron's lips that she suddenly realizes that he may have accidentally touched it when he kissed her.

Katrina's cheeks unconsciously become hot at the memory of his fiery and unrestrained kiss. She feels so embarrassed that she wants to dig herself a hole.

If anyone notices, people might think too much.

Katrina quickly pulls Aaron's sleeves and takes him to the lounge area at the corner.

Aaron raises his eyebrow. "What's wrong?"

They just returned from the garden, what happened?

Katrina takes out a tissue from her bag and hands it to Aaron, her head bowed down, and her face red. "Aaron, your mouth is stained with lipstick."

Aaron takes the tissue and wipes off the imprint on his mouth.

When he kissed her earlier, she estimates that her lipstick was rubbed away. To maintain her image, she needs to fix her make-up.

Fortunately, she has some powder and lipstick in her bag. Katrina looks up at Aaron and says, "Aaron, I have to go to the bathroom."

Aaron is displeased that Katrina takes the liberty of leaving the hall, but if she goes to the bathroom, he can't follow her.

Aaron can only warn her, "Go back quickly" before letting her go.

After Katrina leaves, Aaron sits in the lounge area next nearby, holding a glass of champagne as he waits for her.

With the melodious music, the guests have spontaneously emptied the middle of the venue, each inviting their partners to dance in the middle center.

Just then, Victoria walks on her high heels with a natural and graceful smile on her face.

"Aaron, I failed to dance with you last time at my father's birthday party. I wonder if I can have the honor of dancing with you today."

A girl pampered since childhood never lacks suitors around her.

It's the first time that Victoria actively invited a man to dance, which is enough to show her affection for Aaron.

However, Aaron replies with a smile, "I'm sorry, Miss Roberts. I'm waiting for my girlfriend."

Aaron points to the bathroom with his head. "She's not feeling well. She'll get lost again if she can't find me."

Faced with Aaron's handsome face and his deep and pleasant voice… The man's perfect behavior is enough to make Victoria go crazy.

But he refuses her gracefully. His refusal makes Victoria clench her fist.

It's that woman again!

For the woman's sake, Aaron is unwilling to dance with her.

Who the hell is that woman?

What kind of enchantment did she use on Aaron?

Even though she is angry and reluctant, Victoria keeps the smile on her face. "It doesn't matter."

Her childhood friend Benjamin appears just in time, reaching out to her gently. "Miss Roberts, may I have the honor of dancing with you?"

Victoria puts her hand in Benjamin's and smiles at Aaron. "Aaron, we'll go dancing first."

Aaron nods gracefully to her. "Okay."

Benjamin glides onto the dance floor with his arm around Victoria's tiny waist. His pretty face is lit with a teasing smile. "He turned down your invitation to dance?"

Victoria is already in a bad mood, but Benjamin still had the nerve to mention it. In a fit of rage, she steps on his foot, making him immediately grimace in pain.

"Hey, Miss Roberts, you're so violent! I went over and invited you to dance, but this is how you repay me!"

Benjamin and Victoria grew up together. Although they're always quarreling, they always step forward and help each other out in times of crisis.

Like what he did a moment ago, when Benjamin saw that Victoria's invitation to dance was refused, he feared that since she's a girl, she would get too emotional. He immediately went over to give her a hand and invited her to dance.

Victoria knows that Benjamin won't get upset with her. She asks him angrily, "What about you? Why aren't you pursuing other girls?"

Although they came as companions, they aren't together, and they don't interfere with each other.

Victoria evidently has her sights set on Aaron, and her focus during the whole banquet is on Aaron.

As a playboy, Benjamin naturally accosts the beautiful young girls at the party.

Benjamin sighs, "Oh, don't mention it. The beautiful women here tonight are either someone who grew up in our circle of friends and too familiar to pursue, or someone who already has a boyfriend. I'm not unscrupulous enough to steal someone else's girlfriend.

"Although the girl with Aaron is really pretty, I don't know what relationship she has with him."

He's basically known or met most of the women at the party.

Only Aaron's date is unfamiliar, not to mention so beautiful...

Of course, Benjamin only dares to talk to Victoria about this.

Whether that girl is Aaron's woman or not is irrelevant. Since Aaron brought her here, it would be inappropriate for him to show interest in her.

Hearing Benjamin's words, Victoria becomes even angrier.

It's that woman again!

That woman is really a fox in a white lotus dress!

Even Benjamin, a playboy, is fascinated by her.

Furious, Victoria steps on Benjamin's foot harder.

Benjamin feels a sharp pain on his foot. When he sees Victoria's resentful expression, he realizes that she's unhappy because Aaron brought that woman to the party.

And he praised the woman so much. Of course, Victoria would become very angry.

Benjamin quickly explains, "Because it's refreshing! He thinks that she's different from all the other girls, so he finds it refreshing."

Well, all his girlfriends are a bit worldly and greedy.

That girl exudes a kind of temperament that is different from all his other girlfriends.

Victoria keeps getting the feeling like she's seen Katrina before.

She isn't sure where she has seen her, but there's a sense of déjà vu whenever she looks at her. Even her voice is familiar.

An image flashed in her mind, and Suddenly, Victoria remembers the maid she saw in Aaron's villa the last time she went over to thank Aaron by bringing him dessert personally.

The features and voice come together, and Victoria's eyes fill with disbelief.

It's her!

That time, the woman deliberately exposed her scalded wound and pretended to be pathetic to get Aaron's attention.

That scheming bitch!

A mere servant dares to seduce Aaron and steal a man from her!

She doesn't deserve it!

By this time, Victoria becomes even more annoyed and angrier.
