CHAPTER 121: CHAPTER 121: LOOKING MORE AND MORE LIKE A MARRIED COUPLE

Tiana admitted.

When she was young, she had a romantic heart.

The angrier she became, the more she hoped Aiden would coax her.

Thinking back now, those times were truly childish and foolish.

She took a deep breath, but her chest remained heavy.

So, when she spoke, her attitude was naturally cold and resentful:

"Aiden, do you think by doing all this, Daisy will forgive you and like you?"

"Acting like this will only make Daisy hate you more."

Aiden knew that both Daisy and Tiana disliked him.

Knowing is one thing, hearing her say it is another.

Aiden, whose heart was aching, maintained a calm demeanor, "I just suddenly became very interested in education."

Not even a fool would believe that.

This man is truly shameless, only learning to cherish after losing.

When she didn’t see this man, Tiana’s mood wouldn’t be as complicated and sad as it was now.

Those past pains had clearly been sealed up by her.

Clearly, she had let go.

Why did they still get ripped open, bleeding?

"Aiden, no matter what you do, neither Daisy nor I will forgive you."

"Did you hear that clearly?"

"If you didn’t hear it clearly, I’ll say it again: Daisy and I will never forgive you, nothing you do will work."

Sunshine filtered through the mango trees outside the campus.

Clearly dappled and bright.

Yet it made Aiden look broken.

He tightened his distinct fingers, feigning calmness, and said softly:

"I have a class to teach the kids painting this morning."

"Excuse me."

On the way back, Leo Sutton asked, "Tiana, should I transfer Daisy and Laura to another school?"

Tiana said, "It’s useless, whichever school Daisy transfers to, Aiden will follow."

She knew how persistent he could be.

For several days straight, Aiden completely ignored the matters of Linden-Grant Pharmaceuticals.

Every day, he would go to Eastmere Kindergarten.

Every morning, when Tiana took Daisy to kindergarten, Aiden would greet the mother and daughter openly.

Daisy’s attitude was indifferent.

Tiana’s attitude was also indifferent.

Aiden was relentless.

On the fifth morning.

Hector Chaucer personally accompanied Tiana to take Daisy to kindergarten.

The black Hongqi limo had been parked not far from the school gate for a long time.

Today was a clear and crisp autumn day.

Aiden masked his bitter feelings with a look of calm.

Seeing Tiana coming out from Hector’s Hongqi limo with Daisy and Laura, all his emotions became impossible to hide.

He knew that if he didn’t find a way to quickly get Tiana’s forgiveness.

Hector would surely take Tiana away from him.

He got out of the car holding something.

Tiana waved goodbye to Daisy and Laura.

Hector stood beside her, shoulder to shoulder.

Her new short curled hairstyle, smiling so sweetly in front of Hector.

That smile, Aiden hadn’t seen in a long time.

His chest suddenly tightened, filled with bitterness.

He walked over and stopped in front of Hector and Tiana.

The smile on Tiana’s face abruptly stopped.

The laughter in her eyes tightened, bit by bit, growing cold.

Aiden’s chest felt tight, but he maintained an appearance of calm, then handed over a transparent box.

Inside the box were ceramic dolls that Tiana had smashed a few days ago.

Aiden had stayed up all night repairing them.

He knew Tiana would smash them again.

He preempted, "Tiana, every time you break them, I’ll fix them. There’s nothing I can’t repair."

Crazy!

Doing this is completely meaningless.

Tiana reached out and slapped the box.

Knowing he’d repair them again, she still mercilessly smashed the pair of ceramic dolls in the transparent box onto the ground.

They shattered once more.

This was within Aiden’s expectations.

Even though he was prepared, his chest couldn’t help but feel a sharp pain.

"No worries, I can still repair them."

He squatted down, picking up the shattered ceramic dolls from the transparent box.

"Hector, let’s go."

Tiana got into Hector’s wine-red Hongqi limo.

Back then, Aiden gave this car to Hector, hoping he’d find a girlfriend to take on dates.

But now this car was taking his woman slowly away.

Aiden’s nails dug deeply into his palms.

The clenched fists had veins protruding.

In the car.

Hector gripped the steering wheel, "Do you still feel heartache when you see him?"

Tiana didn’t answer.

To say it doesn’t hurt would be a lie.

But what she was sure of was that she didn’t want to see Aiden again.

And yet, this man just wouldn’t go away.

At that moment, the car stopped at a traffic light.

Hector gently applied the brakes, stopping, "Do you need my help?"

Tiana looked at him, "Do you have a way to stop Aiden from showing up in front of me?"

Hector calmly said, "I know you’re not interested in relationships. By chance, I have a friend who only needs a fake girlfriend to solve some problems."

Tiana didn’t speak.

Is it only when there’s another man beside her that Aiden will give up?

She leaned against the car window, "Let me think about it."

The next day.

Tiana attended a birthday party.

The host of the party was Christopher Grant’s father—David Grant.

Tonight marked David Grant’s sixtieth birthday.

Tiana and Hector were among the invited guests.

They attended the banquet together.

The car arrived at Christopher Grant’s parents’ standalone villa.

Hector got out of the car, standing by the door, waiting gentlemanly for Tiana and little Daisy to step out.

Aiden stood not far away.

Watching little Daisy in her pretty dress, holding Hector’s hand on one side and Tiana’s on the other.

Under charming lights, the three of them looked like a family.

David Grant noticed them, greeted some guests nearby, and took a few steps forward.

"Hector, Tiana!"

His gaze fell on Daisy, who looked exactly like Tiana, "Is this little Daisy?"

Back then, David and Christopher had gone to visit Tiana under surveillance.

Tiana had grown up under David Grant’s watch.

He never believed that Tiana betrayed the Linden and Grant Families.

Now the truth had come out, David felt very guilty towards Tiana, "Tiana, it’s all Uncle’s fault for not helping you back then, letting you suffer all these years. Yesterday your dad even came to me, asking me to persuade you to return to the Linden Family early. But what Uncle wants to say is, don’t forgive that old fool so easily, let him suffer a bit."

Such a good daughter, sent to prison just like that.

Back then, Christopher and David tried numerous times to persuade James Linden.

But still couldn’t stop it.

Tiana knew that Christopher’s ability to view things objectively was greatly influenced by David Grant.

The father and son were united.

David looked at Hector beside him, "Tiana, looking at you and Hector, you two are really starting to look like a couple."
