Chapter 5
As soon as these two words were spoken, there was an uproar in the room, and everyone looked at her with a shocked expression on their faces.
Even Sean, who has always appeared indifferent to Aliana in everyone’s eyes, doesn’t look too good at the moment,
The atmosphere froze for a moment, and it took a while before someone laughed and changed the tople. However, after this incident, no one was in the mood to continue
Soon, the gathering came to an abrupt end: Sean remained silent, as if he hadn’t taken the previous incident to heart. However, as soon as he got in the car, his gaze immediately locked onto her direction.
“What did your previous answer mean?”
She looked at his expression, opened her mouth, and was about to speak when he spoke again, “Are you still mad that I stood you up while watching the sunset?”
It was not until this moment that Aliana realized that deep down in her heart, she still loved him dearly and had never considered the possibility of not loving him. That’s why she subconsciously felt that her words were just a way of venting her anger at him.
But now she was also too lazy to explain, let him think whatever he wanted.
Seeing that she didn’t say anything, Sean also assumed that she had agreed silently, and the frustration in his heart dissipated a little. After a moment, he said again, “The weather hasn’t been very good lately, let’s watch the sunset together next time.”
Allana nodded absentmindedly, as if in response, but only she knew that there would be no future for them anymore.
The car quickly arrived at the Castaneda family’s villa, Sean finished washing up and lay down next to her, subconsciously wanting to hug her, but once again she pushed him away.
“No need, I didn’t have to listen to the heartbeat anymore. I could sleep alone now.”
This was the second time Aliana said she didn’t need to listen to the heartbeat.
If he had heard this sentence before, he would have felt relieved. However, for some unknown reason, hearing it again at this he felt inexplicably annoyed.

He didn’t w
want to hear these words anymore, so he simply wanted to shut her mouth with a kiss. But just as he approached Allana, she dodged his attempt by tilting her head to the side. She still had her eyes closed, and her voice carried a sense of weariness.
“I was tired, let’s go to sleep.”
Arrogant and proud, the president of the Castaneda Group, Sean, had always been pursued and chased after. However, today he was rejected several times in a row, causing his face to immediately darken. He turned to the side, ignoring everyone around him.
The next day, Sean left for work early in the morning, while Allana stayed at home to rest because her injuries had not healed yet. Just after she had finished lunch, her phone suddenly rang. It was his assistant, Billy.
The phone was answered, and the voice of Billy came through urgently, “Madam, Mr. Castaneda’s heart is not feeling well, but we have run out of medicine here at the company. Can you bring some over, please
This was not the first time Billy directly asked Allana to deliver the medicine. Actually, in the past, she would promptly replenish the medicine before Billy reminded her.
And every time she heard that Sean was not feeling well, she would get extremely anxious, and anyone could tell that she “loved” him to death. But this time, she calmly opened her mouth only after Billy finished talking
group building is too far from the villa. You go and buy it yourself.”
“Ab?!”
Never did I imagine that Aliana would refuse, Billy’s voice was full of surprise and a hint of hesitation as she continued, “But I don’t know which medicines to buy, wasn’t it always you who delivered them before? Every time Mr. Castaneda had a heart discomfort, you would get so worried…”
Billy’s rambling was interrupted by her words before she could finish

“It won’t happen again.” Her voice remained steady, devoid of any trace of nervousness few names of medications, she added, “You are his assistant, so these matters will be entrusted to you from now on
The phone hung up, and Billy on the other end of the mobile phone looked embarrassed. Fortunately, they had just taken note of all the necessary medications, so they quickly called someone to go and buy them.
In the evening, Sean returned to the villa and immediately saw Aliana sitting on the sofa, calmly watching TV.
His face immediately became somewhat unpleasant, “I didn’t feel well in my heart today, didn’t you know?”
The familiar voice came with a questioning tone, but it still couldn’t make Aliana’s gaze leave the television.
She didn’t even lift her head and her response was simple and direct, “I know.”
Sean’s face was filled with disbelief as if he hadn’t expected her to be so unabashed. “You knew, but you didn’t come?”
“I said it before, it was too far.”
