Sweet Wife So Charming: CEO: Hold Back Your Heart-Chapter 379: Willing

She jumped in fright, then turned around to look at Aiden Webb and complained, "You scared me to death, why did you suddenly come out from behind?"

"I just bought something from outside, and you went shopping too?" Aiden said as he walked to his room and quietly made her a cup of tea.

She took the tea and casually placed it on the table, not forgetting her purpose this time.

Taking a deep breath, she stood up and handed over the item in her hand: "I really have to thank you this time, it was a big hassle for you."

Aiden slightly twitched the corners of his mouth, a hint of thought crossing his eyes, not understanding what Moira Young was talking about.

"I mean thank you for helping me a lot, and finally getting rid of this frustration." After saying this, Moira Young showed a smile.

She originally didn’t want to be enemies with Ruby, but this woman always opposed her time and again. No matter how good-tempered she was, she was already furious.

Moreover, she signaled with her eyes for Aiden to quickly accept the gift in his hand.

After a few seconds, seeing him not reacting, Moira Young directly put the gift into his hand: "It’s fine, don’t be polite."

"I don’t really understand what you’re talking about, I didn’t help you." Aiden, although expressionless, put the gift back on the table and pushed it towards Moira Young.

Hearing this, Moira Young’s expression blanked for a moment, thinking he was just embarrassed to accept it, she continued, "I know you’re too polite, but you must accept this gift, consider it a token of my gratitude."

Aiden frowned slightly, his tone uncharacteristically gentle: "Maybe it was someone else, not me."

If not him, then who could it be? Could it be?

Moira Young looked at the gift on the table incredulously, and then at Aiden’s expression, not looking like he was lying.

She had to pick up the gift from the table, her face slightly apologetic: "Maybe I misunderstood, but except for you, I really can’t think of anyone else."

"Are you talking about the incident with the supporting actress?" He made himself a cup of coffee, sitting on the sofa quite comfortably.

The supporting actress naturally referred to Ruby; a woman like that, he didn’t even want to mention her name, afraid to dirty his mouth.

The way he crossed his legs also added to his authority; at a glance, he looked like an experienced and dignified actor.

Moira Young hesitated for a moment, then nodded.

"I was actually planning on taking action, but someone else did it first, so I didn’t continue." In fact, even Aiden didn’t expect someone would make a move before him.

A hint of an unexplained gleam flashed through his eyes, but he quickly suppressed it.

Moira Young grew more and more confused because she really couldn’t think of anyone who could intervene and help her in this way.

If they truly wanted those rumors to spread, it would be very simple, but to let a lot of media know in such a short time is not an easy task.

Moira Young supported her chin with her hand, pondering: "Do you really have no knowledge about this? Or are you just finding out now?"

Aiden’s gaze towards Moira Young contained a hint of evasion; he had heard about this, but wasn’t sure whether it was true or false.

"If you really know anything, please tell me so I can thank them," Moira Young said and then stood up to bow to him.

Aiden couldn’t bear this; though he was always cold, he treated Moira Young differently from others. After hesitating for a long time, he finally said, "I think this matter might be Julian Sinclair’s doing."

Aiden always spoke matter-of-factly, and he couldn’t possibly give Moira Young false information.

But Moira Young was momentarily stunned, this news almost shocked her jaw off: "Him? He loathes me to the bone now, how could he help me?"

Moira Young shook her head, denying without hesitation that he now despised her to an extreme, how could he possibly help her?

Since it was known that Aiden didn’t do it, there was no need for Moira Young to stay any longer.

"Since that’s the case, I’ll leave first. Sorry to disturb you, goodbye, senior." After saying this, Moira Young left with confusion.

And behind her, Aiden’s gaze grew even deeper.

Still holding the gift, Moira Young felt it was burning hot.

Looking at the gift, Moira Young’s heart continued to pound.

If it really was Julian Sinclair, she truly wouldn’t know how to thank him, but giving a gift or something felt a bit trite.

Even while sleeping at night, she was wondering whether she should take out her phone and call Julian Sinclair, but she fell asleep in a daze, though not very soundly.

The next morning, Moira Young woke up in a haze and only then remembered what she had forgotten yesterday.

"Ah! Who called me so many times?" Picking up the phone in her hand, she saw there were already five or six missed calls.

Julian, Julian Sinclair?

Moira Young was so startled she almost fell out of bed, rubbing her eyes and looking again, only to find it was Adrian Grant.

Patting her chest, she dialed the number back.

After a couple rings, a warm and magnetic voice came through: "Awake? I thought you’d sleep until the afternoon."

Moira Young sheepishly laughed and then scratched the back of her head, asking, "Brother Adrian, did you need something?"

"Heh~" A light chuckle came from the other side, making Moira Young a bit clueless, "What’s up?"

Only then did Adrian Grant speak: "Nothing much, just checking how you’re doing?"

Moira Young was really puzzled; Adrian Grant usually didn’t contact people, what was so unusual today?

But thinking is one thing, Moira Young still politely replied to him: "I’m doing pretty well."

"That’s good, then my grand gesture wasn’t in vain. If you’re fine, I can breathe a sigh of relief." Finishing this sentence, Adrian Grant sounded somewhat humble. 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦

But Moira Young was startled by his words, if he said so, could it be he did all those things?

This, this makes no sense!

Though puzzled inside, Moira Young’s lips curved slightly: "Could it be all those things were done by you, Brother Adrian? Then, thank you very much."

The other side, Adrian Grant paused for a moment, not knowing what he thought of, continued: "Don’t worry, even without Julian Sinclair, I will always protect you."

This sudden statement surprised Moira Young a bit, but she felt more touched than anything, smiling with gratitude: "If you work so hard, I would feel embarrassed."

"It’s what I’m supposed to do, and I’m willing to do it." His voice carried magnetism, pulling Moira Young’s thoughts slowly into the distance.
