Selena gritted her teeth. "Fine, I'll be there soon!"

She hung up and put on a dramatic, mock-angry performance using her phone. Aveline watched, thoroughly amused.

When Selena finished her act, she let out a heavy sigh and said, "Aveline, I can't stay with you tonight. Will you be lonely by yourself? How about I find you a hot guy? How about Sidney?" Aveline gently pushed her head. "You can just go peacefully."

Selena pouted and cried.

Aaron's place was only a twenty-minute walk from Maple Garden.

When Selena arrived, she rang the doorbell, glaring at Aaron with a stern expression.

Aaron raised an eyebrow. "Cosplaying at this hour?"

Selena asked, "Mr. Fletcher, what exactly about the blueprints do you find problematic?"

Aaron smirked and invited her in. There were slippers ready at the door. Selena noticed them and slightly curled her lip.

She sat down on the sofa without hesitation. Noticing the fried chicken and drinks on the coffee table, she didn't hold back. If she had to work late, she might as well enjoy it!

Aaron watched her savoring the fried chicken and remarked, "You made yourself quite comfortable."

Selena replied, "Why shouldn't I enjoy some good food?"

She wasn't wearing makeup, yet her delicate face and large, star-like eyes were strikingly beautiful.

Aaron, sitting on a single chair, watched her chipmunk-like cheeks puff up as she ate, but he remained silent.

Selena didn't overindulge, stopping after a drumstick. After all, eating too much at night could lead to weight gain.

She wiped her mouth and hands, then asked, "So, what's the issue?"

Aaron responded, "If I hadn't mentioned a problem, would you have come?"

Selena paused, then looked at him with a blank expression. "So, you called me over in the middle of the night just to watch me eat? How devious! You're trying to turn a beautiful woman into a chubby one!" Aaron was speechless.

His mouth twitched slightly. Seeing her angry expression, he asked, "Selena, what goes on in that head of yours all day?"

Selena retorted, "What I think about is none of your business."

Aaron said, "Come on, let's fix the blueprints."

He gave up trying to talk sense into her and headed towards the study. Selena watched his back, pouted, and followed him.

The study was spacious, with a computer already on, displaying the blueprints Selena had given him. He pointed to a spot and said, "Isn't this supposed to be the balcony? Why is there a corner here?" Selena leaned in to take a look and began explaining.

They were very close now, and Aaron could see her bright, fluttering eyes and her long eyelashes, like the wings of a butterfly. For some reason, he felt a tickling sensation within, as if a feather were brushing against his heart.

After a long explanation, Selena looked up at him. "Did you understand?"Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.

Aaron replied, "No, explain it again."

Selena frowned. "I just explained it in detail. What were you thinking about?"

Aaron stared deeply at her. "Guess."

Selena rolled her eyes at him. "Ridiculous!"

She turned to leave. Aaron asked, "You're not going to explain it again?"

Selena responded, "Your focus clearly isn't on the design. Explaining it is pointless. If you don't like it, I'll just change it."

Aaron followed her. "Alright then, tell me, where is my focus?"
