Lazily Yours.

Chapter 588: A Memory from the Past

"Oh a business venture." Linda cleared her throat before smiling at her future daughter-in-law. "Well, my dear it is normal for Earl to have meetings with Gabi. After all, Gabi is a consultant of the company."

"And she is the heiress the future CEO," Earl added. "It's normal that we talk about the company."

"The future CEO?" Analise looked at Gabi. "I didn't know that Miss Gabi is going to lead the company."

"If not her, then who?" Earl said.

A long stretch of silence followed his words. Analise awkwardly smiled at Earl. "Please don't take it the wrong way. I was just curious. I didn't know about these things before."

"Hmmm I understand. In the future, you should slowly study business too. This is what I did when I married your uncle. Back then, my knowledge of business was just limited. However, after our marriage, I decided to devote myself to studying business so I could support him. This is what a woman should do."

"Thank you for your guidance, Aunt. I will make sure to support Earl in the future too." Analise smiled. Her eyes turned into crescents.

Seeing this, Gabi excused herself and went to the bathroom. Honestly, she felt a little awkward about this situation. Since she already know what Earl thought about this marriage, her opinions about the two had changed.

After a few seconds, Gabi came back. By now, Analise and her Aunt Linda already made their order. This time, Gabi didn't hesitate to bid them goodbye. Of course, Earl used this opportunity to tell them that he too had to leave, as he needed to attend a meeting. It was an obvious lie. Even his mother frowned when she heard his words.

But what can she do about it?

In the end, Earl and Gabi left the two in the coffee shop.

Gabi also decided to go home. She needed to finish another exercise routine before she would see Aden for the next dose a few days away. And just like that, Gabi immersed herself in getting her body stronger. Every night, Aden would check her body and would show a face full of surprise. This made Gabi doubt if something bad was happening inside her body.

However, Aden assured her that her body is fine. She was getting stronger, and she was adapting to the medicine.

A few days later, Gabi had her second dose of another medicine. This time, not only did her senses become sharper, her body felt a little sore. It was as if she just finished running forty kilometers, her muscles felt on fire.

Of course, Aden was quick to assure her that this was normal. On the next day, the pain would disappear. To assure her, Aden even stayed inside her room that night. He insisted on observing her.

In the end, she got tired of arguing with him and agreed. Aden stayed on the couch a few feet away from her bed. Gabi expected him to stay awake and watch her, observe her, see if she somehow stopped breathing. Contrary to her expectations, the man spent the entire night sleeping. He even woke up late the next day!

Even Cyrus had a hard time speaking when she saw him sleeping on Gabi's couch. With his tall frame, the couch was naturally smaller than him. Seeing him on the couch was a little pitiful.

"I Should you ask him to move to the bed?" Cyrus stuttered.

"Hm? Let him be." Gabi said. Aden looked really peaceful. Disturbing him would be bad. Today, Gabi decided to have Cyrus deliver everything inside her room. After her breakfast, to the things that she needed to work on, Gabi did it inside her office. This was because she didn't want anyone to accidentally walk into Aden.

She wasn't scared that her people would misunderstand her relationship with Aden. However, she was scared that Aden would accidentally think that they were assassins and just kill them. Gabi didn't want him to hurt her people.

Staring at Aden's frame, Gabi started to wonder why the man was still asleep. It was almost ten in the morning. He already slept for more than twelve hours! Is he a koala or something? How could an adult sleep like that?

It is either that or this person hasn't slept for a few days already.

She recalled Aden's face last night. There was not a hint of any bags under his eyes. He didn't look tired either.

Then maybe he had special training that involves training?

The possibilities are just endless when it comes to this man.

Gabi shook her head as she decided to focus on her work.

Just as Aden told her, the soreness that she felt yesterday was long gone. Right now, she could feel her body turn lighter. In fact, she had run for another five-kilometer earlier today without having breathing problems. Because of this, Gabi felt really motivated to work. She started reading a lot of files on the market research of the club that she wanted. She wanted in ready by six months. However, since she would be in training, she would need another person to manage the construction.

Because of this, she already told Kasper to prepare himself, as he would need to do it while she was gone.

Slowly, Gabi forgot the time as she immersed herself in the planning. Blueprints, interior, lighting. She wanted to take care of these things before she leave. She wanted to become involved in the construction even if she won't be physically there.

"Hm? Is he hibernating or something?" Gabi looked at the time. It was already eleven and Aden was still asleep. Frowning, Gabi got up and walked towards the couch. This time, she is going to wake him up. It was almost noon, and he needed to eat something. Without any hesitation, she tapped his arm. She thought he was a light sleeper, but it turns out "Ah!" Gabi let out a surprised gasp when she felt herself falling to the floor. She close her eyes on instinct but realized that she didn't feel any pain from

Her eyes snapped open. She met his light brown eyes. And felt the world shirt. A warning went off in her brain. 'Stand up', It said. But the warning dimmed to nothing. Instead of listening to her instinct that told her this was a mistake, she let her eyes wander towards his sharp, perfectly formed brows. Almond eyes that reminded her of fall. Tall nose and pink lips.

*CRASH*

The loud crash coming from the person standing by the door interrupted the atmosphere.

"I Sorry Sorry I didn't mean to walk " Cyrus paled as she stuttered and tried to give some reason why she didn't knock. Earlier, Gabi told her not to knock. She didn't want her knocking to disturb Aden. So, Gabi locked her door and gave Cyrus a key. She told Cyrus that she could come whenever she want. The reason why Cyrus came inside this time was that it was time to refill Gabi's tea. She did it every hour.

But this

On the other hand, Gabi's face flushed. Her eyes widened as realization hit her. She immediately got it. She realized that she wasn't on the floor, but on the couch. As for the reason why she fell on top of him, she didn't know! She couldn't remember what happened!

She immediately got up, ignored Aden, who was looking at her with a deep unfathomable look in his eyes and walked back towards her table. She gathered her thoughts before saying, "Since you are up you should eat lunch." She cleared her throat and hoped that Aden didn't notice the deep blush on her face. "Cyrus clean it up and bring food."

"Ah?"

"Yes Yes. I will leave first." Cyrus answered and immediately started picking up the glass teapot that was on Gabi's carpet.

"Damn it was already this late."

She heard Aden mutter. He got up, quickly folded his blanket, and walked towards her. Almost immediately, she felt her face turn hotter. Beads of sweat-drenched her back. She could hear her heartbeat drummed against her chest, threatening to jump out of her ribcage. What's this? Why was she so nervous? She took a deep breath and was about to speak when she noticed that he was nowhere to be found.

"Hm?"

She looked at her window and realized that it was already open. Aden left just like that.

He ran away!

Gabi didn't know how to react. Why did that man run away? Was he shy? That couldn't be. He was obviously older than her. He must have a few girlfriends already, right? After all, he was a really good-looking and smart guy. Moreover, his dad was Archy, so his background must be good too!

Shrugging, she decided to look at the blueprint of the club again. But it didn't take too long for her to realize that she couldn't stop thinking about Aden's eyes. For some reason, she felt that she had seen those eyes before.

In her past life.
