All Chapters of When He Insulted Me, I Chose Revenge: Chapter 11 - Chapter 16

However, Aaron remained as composed and refined as ever. “Mr. Cleave, I have no idea what you’re trying to say today. If your girlfriend broke up with you, perhaps you should reflect on your own actions instead of coming to me. “And for the record, Claire was my senior in university. She’s an exceptional person, and I admire her greatly. Even if I were pursuing her, you two have already broken up. It’s none of your concern.” At the mention of “pursuing her,” I nearly choked, my face contorting into a full-on are-you-kidding-me expression.I wracked my brain for memories of our time at university, but Aaron and I had hardly interacted. Nicolas’ antics had clearly pushed him to the point of saying something that didn’t quite add up. What was more baffling was that Aaron even agreed to meet with Nicolas in the first place instead of just having security kick him out of the building. “Well, isn’t that just perfect, Mr. Ford,” Nicolas spat, his voice twisting with bitterness.

“Mr. Ford, is there any truth to the rumors circulating online about you interfering in someone else’s relationship?”Aaron’s expression remained cool and composed. He glanced at me briefly, his gaze softening for just a moment before he spoke.“Claire and I got together only after her previous relationship had ended. However—” He paused, then added evenly, “I won’t deny that I admired her long before that.

He even earned himself a new nickname: “The Bitter Ex.”Meanwhile, Aaron’s statements flipped the public narra

“Mmm, this smells nice.” This was the first thought that popped into my head as I regained a bit of clarity. And why was it so warm in the middle of winter?I slowly opened my eyes and realized that I was in someone’s arms! Looking up, I found myself face-to-face with the strikingly handsome face of Aaron. A short nap hadn’t left him looking the slightest bit disheveled. He still looked sharp, like he could walk straight into three consecutive press conferences without missing a beat. Wait a minute! How did I end up asleep on the couch with Aaron? And I was practically curled up in his arms. No, that wasn’t right. It was Aaron who had pulled me into his embrace. I shot up suddenly, questioning reality. Aaron slowly opened his drowsy eyes, glanced at me once, then closed them again. Come on, seriously? He was still sleeping? I grabbed my phone and checked the time. It was 6:01 p.m., one minute past the end of the workday! I shook Aaron awake frantically.
