Chapter: 987

Meanwhile, Nikolas ended his call with Siena and immediately dialed Aimee.

His fingers trembled as he held the phone!

Shortly afterward, Aimee answered the phone.

Nikolas could hear her typing on the keyboard and figured she must be busy working.

"Hello? What's going on?" Aimee stopped what she was doing.

“Just now..."

“Oh, right! Your ex-girlfriend showed up looking for you," Aimee said casually, her eyes still fixed on her laptop screen. "She said she'd take my place! Why? Did she contact you?"

"Aimee, don't listen to her bullshit!"

Nikolas' voice was intense.

Aimee couldn't help but smile.

“Remember, you're a leader. You don't have to be rude. Calm down. I'm not upset! Finish your work and then come get me. I'm in the mood for barbecue tonight."

"Alright! I'll come by to pick you up after I'm done here."

Hanging up, Nikolas felt somewhat relieved.

Yet, he was aware that if Siena kept stirring up issues, Aimee would eventually uncover the truth!

He needed to resolve this matter quickly.

Nikolas even found himself wishing Aimee were pregnant already!

Perhaps then, for the child's sake... Aimee might find it in her heart to forgive him.

It wasn't long before Siena called.

Nikolas' villa was just a short distance from the Bates Group.

He rushed downstairs, donning a mask to dodge any unwanted photos.

When he saw Siena, he pulled her to a corner.

He yanked Siena so forcefully that she nearly lost her balance.

"Nikolas..."

"You completely ignored my words, didn't you?" Nikolas' eyes darkened with anger as he confronted her. “How could you just show up at my place and speak to Aimee?"
