NovelEnglishChapter 958
This question-“Willing?“-kept echoing in Lena’s mind.
It haunted her so much that she spent yet another sleepless night.
Her answer was clear: she couldn't. She knew Aaron had made his move and wouldn't give up easily. But she
simply couldn't agree. And if she didn’t say yes, there was nothing he could do about it.
Besides, she truly saw him as her younger uncle-there was no way she could see him as a boyfriend.
“Dr. Lane, not sleeping well lately?” the hospital director asked as soon as he saw her. One glance, and he could
tell she looked exhausted.
“A bit of insomnia,” Lena admitted honestly.
“Is it because you don’t have a boyfriend? Wantto introduce you to a few?” The director, ever so responsible,
even took it upon himself to worry about her personal life.
Lena glanced at the sparse hair on his head and chuckled. “Director, I'll find someone myself. No need for you to
concern yourself.”
Aaron hadn't gotten an answer from her, nor had he pursued her aggressively. After all, he'd waited so many
years already-he wasn’t in a rush.
Her refusal wasn’t because she disliked him. It was just that her feelings for him hadn't yet shifted from familial
affection to romantic love.
Still, he couldn't ignore the men around her. He wasn’t about to let someone else swoop in while he was working
hard on the front lines.
Ron wasn't surprised at all when he saw Aaron. After receiving a call from his pseudo -mother-in-law yesterday,
he had mentally prepared himself for a meet-the- family moment.

considered himself the rightful boyfriend.
Aaron, dressed in a dark coat and rimless glasses, exuded a sense of sophistication. Ron, though also wearing
trendy brands and glasses, couldn't help but feel inferior in his presence.

It wasn’t that Ron was unattractive or lacked status-far from it. Yet, standing next to Aaron, he felt himself pale
in comparison.
“Thank you for taking care of Lil* Lena,” Aaron said, his tone calm and composed, brushing off Ron's pretentious
attitude.
Ron was someone Aaron had already looked into through Hayden. He knew Ron was a good, upright person.
Otherwise, Aaron would have taken Lena away by force last night.
“She’s my girlfriend; it’s my duty,” Ron said with a wide smile.
“Mm, she certainly is one of your few female friends,” Aaron replied, making it clear that he knew everything and
wasn't fooled.
Ron, who always wore a smile, grinned even more brightly. “My goal is to turn her from a female friend into my
girlfriend. Actually, she was the one who directly askedto be her boyfriend.”
Aaron crossed his legs,casually, his hand resting on his knee. “How much is she paying you?”
Ron, leaning casually with one leg on the table, froze for a moment. Aaron's understanding of Lena was so
accurate that it caught him off guard.
“She and | are in a genuine relationship with the intention of dating seriously,” Ron insisted, still trying to hold
his ground.
Aaron remained unfazed by Ron's defiance. Calmly and unhurriedly, he continued, For Lil’ Lena to collaborate
with you shows that your character is trustworthy.”
Pride swelled in Ron, and he straightened his back unconsciously. “Of course! Back in school, | was an excellent
student. At work, I'm an outstanding colleague. In society, I'm a model citizen. My roots are pure!”
Faced with Ron's self-satisfaction, Aaron gave a slight nod, offering just enough acknowledgment to keep him
satisfied. “That explains why Hayden trusts you so
much-enough to let you be his family’s finances,”
