Unexpected Love: One Night With Mr CEO

Chapter 246 - 246. Awkward

I don't know, he's just really worried.

Knock… Knock… Knock…

Aaron tried knocking on his nephew's room. Since it was already dark, all the lights in the room were on. But not with Claire's room.

Seen from the bedroom window, it was very dark inside, as if no one inhabited it.

Even so, Aaron did not stop knocking on the door of the room.

"Claire?" he tries to call the lady.

"Are you okay?"

Waited a few minutes, no answer. In a slow-motion, Aaron tried to open the door and found it was not locked.

Dark, there is no lighting in the room. Aaron fumbled in his trouser pocket and took out his cell phone intending to use it as a light.

After successfully turning on the light in the room, Aaron's steps stopped, his body froze when his gaze caught two figures sleeping on the sofa in a hug.

Suddenly Aaron's face fell a little hot, rubbing the nape of the neck that didn't itch while turning his gaze to another direction, it was clear that the man was being awkward.

For some reason he was ashamed of himself seeing the scene, a sight he had never expected before.

"Ehem.." Aaron cleared his throat, hoping that the two of them would wake up and be aware of his whereabouts, but unfortunately, neither Devan nor Claire showed the slightest sign of waking up.

"Ehem.." Aaron cleared his throat once again. His current position was on their side, trying to avoid the sight, but it still seemed that he occasionally stole glances at the sofa where Devan and his nephew were.

'What are they thinking?' Aaron thought.

'Why not just sleep in the bed? If this is the case, I guarantee their bodies will hurt when they wake up later,' he thought again. Slowly approached the two people.

With slow steps, he intends to move the two to the bed.

It took a few minutes until Aaron managed to move the two people to the bed, it seemed Devan and Claire were very tired because there was no movement from the two of them at all when he lifted their bodies.

He didn't know whether Devan was sleeping or just pretending, Aaron didn't know.

After moving the two people away, a rough sigh escaped his lips, he then decided to leave the room.

Asked the Maids to prepare a special dinner for his guests tonight, after which Aaron returned to his room. Shower and change clothes.

Erik and Dave passed Aaron in the elevator. The two of them had just got home after walking around and taking the boy to buy the things he liked along the way.

"Sir," Erik was surprised when his eyes met Aaron's right after the elevator doors opened. Visible in both hands holding several large bags containing boxes which, if only at a glance, anyone could tell that they were toy cars and airplanes.

"Granpa," Dave called as soon as he ran into the elevator, approaching the man with a lookup.

Of course, Aaron didn't stay still, the man immediately crouched down and greeted his grandson, lifted his tiny body, and carried him out of the lift.

"Uncle Erik, just take it to my room," said Dave, turning to Erik who had just passed him.

"Okay, Young Master," replied the man while bowing respectfully, waiting for Mr. Aaroon and the boy to leave, then he entered the elevator in front of him.

While on the other hand, Aaron who was carrying Dave was now walking to the backyard, the garden lanterns that were neatly lined up managed to provide enough light for the two of them, along the path made up of rocks, they headed to a small pond in the backyard. Where the pond contains various types of fish that look very beautiful. He didn't know, Aaron just wanted to relax his mind a bit while feeding the fish there. This has become a routine activity after coming home from work.

"Granpa where are you going?" Dave asked innocently, scanning his surroundings.

"Feed the fish, honey."

"Where have you been?" he asked as he lowered the boy from his arms.

"Uncle Erik took me out for a walk, Granpa," Dave replied as he watched what his grandfather was doing.

"Uncle Erik also bought me a lot of toys," he added.

"Really? You like it?" asked Aaron again, the man was now holding a small bowl of fish food that he had just taken from the mini box that he had specially prepared there.

"Of course, Granpa. I like it."

"I still want to go around, but Uncle Erik has brought me home," Dave said with a shaky breath, fiddling with a small pebble with one of his feet.

"If I have free time, I'll take you out for as long as you want, honey" Aaron replied with a smile, glancing over at his grandson.

"Are you promise?"

"I promise," Aaron replied immediately, and it managed to make Dave seem excited again. The boy then walked closer to the edge of the pool, jumped onto a rock that was half his body size, sat there with both legs he let swing down.

"Granpa, all these fish are yours?" Dave asked again, his eyes glaring at the swarm of fish that seemed to be swarming and fighting for each other's food.

"Yes, Dear."

"May I have one?"

"Of course, Dave also wants to raise fish?"

"No, Granpa," replied the boy, shaking his head.

"I want to take it to the room, I think I don't have a toy fish like this," he added.

On reflex, the corner of Aaron's lips twitched faintly. He didn't know what kind of response he should respond to his grandson's words that sound so innocent.

"Granpa, may I? I want that one," Dave said again while pointing to a golden scaly fish that had a larger body size than the others.

"If you want, then you can have it. But don't take it to the room okay? The fish will die, honey," said Aaron.

"Dead?"

"Just as Dave needs oxygen to stay alive, fish are like that too, honey. Water is their place to live, without water they will die," Aaron replied as he explained.

Dave didn't respond anymore, the boy was just silent while nodding his head, seemed to be trying to digest what his grandfather had just said.

It was all this time when he was studying. Most of the material he read and studied was only about calculations, foreign languages, and astronomy.

It was rare for him to learn about the living things around him.
