The Day I Kissed An Older Man novel Chapter 1237

"Nope. She's always been like this. She's usually very even-tempered, but once she gets going? Whoo baby, you wouldn't want to be near her when that happens. I mean, that's why I'm hiding in here with you too," said Aaron.

"Oh…alright." Annie could not help but worry about Corinne.

Aaron put his hands on Annie's shoulders, guided her to the bed, and pressed her down to sit.

"I have no hidden agenda for bringing you into my room. It's just that I only have one-third ownership of this apartment. The rest of the rooms are either Xante's or the boss' territory, so I can't bring you there without their permission. Otherwise, they'd beat me up," explained Aaron.

At first, Annie was scared to sit on his bed, but she felt a little better after his explanation, so she remained seated.

She had always known Aaron lived with Xante, but this was the first time she learned Corinne stayed in the same place as well.

Generally, a woman would need more space than a man since they needed to store their clothes, accessories, makeup, and many other things. A man could usually fit all the things he needed into one bedroom.

Being a woman herself, Annie found it understandable that Xante and Corinne would not want others to go into their rooms without permission.

Aaron helped Annie open her Coke bottle before passing it back to her. "Just chill. I'm not going to do anything to you."

Annie gradually relaxed. She was not really worried that Aaron would do anything to her; she just did not want to embarrass herself in front of him.

Not knowing what to say, she drank her drink.

Aaron sat some distance away from her and drank his beer. "Why did you follow us here if you didn't want to see me?"

Annie allowed the taste of her drink to roll in her mouth a little before answering, "I want Corinne to keep being my aunt. I came to persuade her to stay with Uncle Jeremy."
