"Although I desperately want Mobi Corps, I couldn't betray you," If lying just to cover more lies would make him believe her, so he won't send her packing, she must do that.
"Did he not shake hands with you?"
Alexa nodded, "he did."
"Stupid," he flicked her forehead and smiled, "don't shake hands with people from now on."
Alexa was dazed. The more she interacted with this man, the more stupid she felt. Just a few moments ago, he was strangling and glaring at her. However now, he suddenly changed and smiled at her like they were back to how they used to be.
It seemed that he was that way earlier because he thought she killed his grandfather. Now that Aiden had returned to how he used to be, Alexa's nerves relaxed and she breathed a sigh of relief.
