Memory Of Love
The Part 13

According to Casey, if people don't know what Aaron really is, maybe those people will think, if Aaron loves Casey, so he can feel jealous of Casey.

But not for Casey.

Casey knows that Aaron only intends to tease her, and Casey is not interested in joining the game.

Holding both sides of Aaron's face and pulling him closer, as if they were both about to kiss, Casey then said,

"Honey...! Our engagement is just for business. So, you do not need to be too deep into your role....

... Didn't you see? Among all these businessmen, no one knew that you were my fiancee. And I'd rather it stay that way."

Casey then releases Aaron's embrace from his body, while giving a signal to Lionel, to immediately approach him.

"Casey!" The voice from Aaron rang out, as if he was already very furious, with Casey's behavior rejecting him.

"Casey! ... What's up?" asked Lionel, who was already standing near Casey and Aaron.

"Aaron seems drunk. Can you find a replacement driver, drive him home?" sahut Casey's. 

Lionel looked like he was confused, but he said nothing, and let Casey walk away from it.

For some time, Casey did not pay attention to what Aaron did afterwards, and only talked to the guests, who wanted to talk about business with him.

"Mister Roberts would have been very happy, if he had known that you could convince these new investors" Martin said, whispering in Casey's ear.

Martin Brown, Daniel's personal assistant, is in his fifties, and has worked for Daniel, for more than twenty years.

Because those who have known each other for a long time, Casey can talk informally with him, as if the two of them were only the same age.

"Do you think so? ... Because I still have doubts, if I can convince them," Casey said, to be honest.

"Don't hesitate! ... I know very well how your Grandpa interacts, and you look even better" Martin said, smiling.

"Thank you!" casey said, then smiled.

"Why did you choose to work at R&H Corp?" ask Martin. "Have you thought about replacing Mister Roberts?'

"Let's go ... I still need to learn a lot" Casey replied. 

"really? ... Isn't that why?" martin asked, while making a movement with his eyes, as if he was pointing at something.

When Casey looked in the direction Martin was referring to, Casey saw Aaron standing not too far from where Casey was, and looked to be looking at Casey.

"Is it because of the CEO?" Martin repeated his question again, smiling and looking almost laughing.

"Pff.ht...! Of course not" Casey replied, laughing.

"He seems to really like you" Martin said.

"Hm ... Not like that ... He hates me, '" Casey said.

"Based on experience, I think he's very interested in you" said Martin, who appeared to link his eyebrows together.

"But, I don't know! ... Then what about you? Are you not interested in him?" martin continued, hurry.

"No" answered Casey, who was soon distracted, because one of the guests approached him, and asked him to talk.

***

I don't know how long Casey's been standing, and meeting the guests alternately.

Maybe because he was too tired, so his head hurt, and even mixed with nausea, because of his swaying gaze.

But Casey did not want to complain about the situation to anyone, because there could have been someone who reported to Daniel, and would only make the grandfather of Casey became worried.

While trying hard to make her look okay, Casey then asks Martin to confront the guests.

Casey reasoned to Martin, that he only wanted to rest his legs for a while.

Then, in a hurry, Casey, who did not want anyone to realize his condition, chose to immediately go to rest, alone in one of the gazebos overlooking the lake.

"Are you sick?" 

Aaron's voice that asked, really felt annoying for Casey, who was sitting leaning back while closing her eyes.

"Is there nothing else you can do, other than constantly harassing me?" casey said, without opening her eyes.

"I'm being nice to you. Would you rather we fight?" sahut Aaron's.

"Huuffft...!" Casey grunts violently.

"What are you doing?" casey asked, shaking Aaron's hand.

"I just want to check, in case you have a fever. Because in addition to pale, you were able to look like a confused person," replied Aaron.

"There is no need to act as if you care about my situation ... That's scary!" sahut Casey's.

Aaron made no comment, and simply pulled one of the chairs closer to where Casey was sitting, opened a bottle of mineral water, and thrust it into Casey.

"This! ... Maybe you can feel better" Aaron said, slowly. "There's something I want to talk to you about."

Casey then took a bottle of water from Aaron's hand, then drank it a little.

"What do you want to talk about?" casey asked, putting the water bottle on the table next to her.

"How did you feel, when I interrupted your dance, and got too involved in your affairs, with that stranger?" ask Aaron.

"Don't hit around the bush! ... Just tell me what you really want to say!" sahut Casey's.

"I want you to stop stirring up a dispute with Julie" Aaron said.

"Pff.ht...! Haha! ... You are so funny!" casey said, laughing.

"Are you trying to provoke my anger again?" Aaron seemed to be frowning both his eyebrows.

"If I did, so what?" sahut Casey, smiling mockingly.

Aaron seemed to be breathing rapidly, as if he was feeling extremely annoyed with Casey, who was acting up to that stupid moment.

But it is still the same as before, where Casey is not interested in explaining about the real incident, to Aaron. 

Casey preferred to tease Aaron back, saying, Casey,

"You better get out of here now! ... For if your anger erupts here, it is not I who will be ashamed, but you....

... What would people respond to, if they saw a man being rude to a woman? You will look like someone who has just been rejected."

"Casey! ... Have you gone mad? Why do you keep acting like this?" asked Aaron, who started raising his tone.

"What do you think?" Casey asked back, with a mocking tone of voice.

"Can't you fall in love with another man?" ask Aaron.

"Pff.ht...! Ahaha!" Casey laughed again.

Aaron seemed increasingly confused when he saw Casey's reaction, until the folds on his forehead seemed to deepen, as he fused his eyebrows together, and looked at Casey closely.

"Hm ... I'm sorry, Aaron. But I'm really tired, and I just want to be alone" Casey said, slowly.

Casey then rested her head on the chair, and closed her eyes.

But not for long, Casey felt that something moist had touched his lips.

When Casey opened her eyes again, Aaron seemed to be kissing her.

Without warning, Casey pushed Aaron away, then slapped Aaron in the face hard.

"What do you think you're doing?" ask Casey, furious.

"You want me, don't you? I'll give you my body, as long as you stop bothering Julie. Because he has my heart" said Aaron.

"You've got to be kidding! ... Are you blind? Do I have to shout it out loud? ... I'm not interested in you! 

... Get you out of here! Don't bother me again, before I call security!" casey said, firmly.

"Casey! ... Then what's your purpose in hurting Julie?" asked Aaron, who seemed to still insist.

"Geez! ... You,**king stupid!" Casey sighed deeply, to calm herself down.

Then in a hurry, Casey stood up from his seat, and was about to leave.

But Casey's condition wasn't very good at the time, and it seemed to be getting worse.

Thus, suddenly, Casey felt that his gaze had darkened, followed by a reduced balance, to rest on the pillar of the gazebo.

"Lionels...! Please help me! ... Lionel..!"'s search...!" While trying to keep holding on, so as not to fall off the gazebo, Casey exclaimed with all his remaining strength.

Casey still had time to feel if someone hugged him, before Casey finally completely lost consciousness.
