92 I knew better than to get on his nerves when he was that irritated.
At least Iâm relieved I wasnât the cause of his anger this time. If I was, then why would he want to have lunch with me?
When Mitch drives away onto the main road, Aidenâs eyes suddenly fall to my knees.
His eyes stare hard on my fingers clutching the tissue to my knees.
His brows knot into a frown.
âWhatâs wrong with your knee?â He questioned.
âNothing, just a scratch. Seriously Iâm okay.â I assured him. when his eyes deepened with raw concern.
Suddenly his hand is on the hand I had on my knee and he pries it away to get a better look at my knee.
âItâs still bleeding.â He grumbles, almost as if mad that I got a scratch.
âItâs fine.â I murmured.
He shook his head and in a rapid move had my leg on his lap. He didnât even care that I had heels on and could poten- tially ruin his expensive pants.
âAiden!â I gasped.
âShut up.â He grumbles, tearing a piece of tissue and swatting my hand away from my knee.
âMitch take us to the nearest store to get some bandaids and rubbing alcohol,â Aiden demanded.
âYes sir,â Mitch said and swang on another road.
I shook my head. âYou really didnât have to Aiden. Itâs not a big deal. The scratch isnât even bleeding much-
âYou talk way too much Sophie. presses the tissue to my scratch.
Aiden grumbles and I let out a huff, crossing my arms, annoyed as hell know- ing he wouldnât let up. There was no way Iâd win this so it would be best if I just shut up and let him do what he wanted.
When we pulled up to the grocery store a good ten min- utes or so later, Aiden is the only one who actually goes inside the store. He ordered me to stay inside the Suv and insisted that I was better off sitting than walking.
He must think that little scratch had made me immobile.
I rolled my eyes and watch him disappear inside the store.
âYour boss is such a prick Mitch.â I said, glaring at the store he disappeared inside of.
I wanted some chips but my pride would not allow me to tell him to buy them for me. And seeing as he would perhaps make a fuss if he sees me enter the store, there really was no way I can get my chips in peace.
I can survive without chips.
We were going for lunch anyway...
Well hopefully we still were. I fear heâd think I was too âin- juredâ to have lunch.
Mitch chuckles lightly. âI donât know Miss. Mr. Xavier has never cared for another woman the way he does for you.â
His words had me haling back.
Sophie you better not make Aidenâs chauffeur get you to crack those walls around your heart. You better seal them right up.
âI wasnât sure which rubbing alcohol was the best so I took three different brands,â Aiden said as he hopped back into the car.
He closed the door and shift through the stuff he bought. He takes out a small bag of cotton balls and the three rubbing alcohol bottles.
He really did buy three rubbing alcohol bottles....
âThe lady at the counter said this one worked the best. But the man behind me said all worked the same. Didnât know who to trust so bought all three.â He grinned sheepishly when I looked at him in disbelief.
I sighed. He was doing way too much for a tiny scratch. âYou honestly didnât have to buy the alcohol Aiden. A ban- dage wouldâve been just fine.â
Not even a bandage....my scratch was so tiny that having a bandage would be comical. But I donât say that because Iâm sure he would debate with me.
âOh right the bandage,â He grumbles while shifting through the bag once more and pulling out-
âIs that Dora The Explora bandages Aiden?â
He grinned. âThey were the only ones left in the store.â
My eyes narrowed on his face. Somehow I donât believe a single word he just said.
Aiden reaches for my leg again and throws it over his thigh.
I turn bright red, because this time he managed to open my legs so vast that I was sure my panties were on full display for him.
I just hope I didnât have a wet patch down there from ear- lier when I was in his dressing room and he was undressing.....
Aiden poured the alcohol on the cotton ball and then dabbed the wet ball on my scratch.
I hissed. For a small scratch, it hurt like a bitch when the alcohol touched it.
Shy Aideyes lift to my face, darting everywhere to see if I showed signs of pain. âAre you okay? Does it hurt? Do you need to go to the hospital?â He rushes out, his voice thick with concern.
I wouldâve laughed at his questions if my heart was not currently throbbing at his show of raw concern.
âIâm okay Aiden. It just stung a little.â I said softly and he sighed in relief.
âDonât scare me like that Sophie,â He whispered.
My brows furrowed. Did this little scratch really have him so concerned?
The Girl He Craves novel (Sophie and Aiden)
ï¤Chapter 91 The Billionaires Mistress ï¤Epilogue The Alpha and The Fool About fifteen minutes later Mitch pulled up beside a very expensive restaurant.
My eyes widen.
âAre we going to have lunch here?â I whispered.
I was not properly dressed for an expensive place like this, especially with a Dora The Explora bandage on my knee. The skirt I wore definitely was not covering that.
Also, this place was always filled with rich socialites and I clearly was not one of them. I would stick out like a sour thumb among these people. Like I was already just by sitting beside Aiden.
Aiden looks at me confused. âYes?â
I winced. âThis restaurant is very expensive Aiden. I donât belong here.â
Aidenâs eyes turned stormy. âYouâre worth more than that restaurant Sophie. Now keep that pretty mouth shut before I shut it myself.â
He opened the door. âWeâll be back in thirty Mitch. If you want you can drive around the block.â Aiden said while get- ting down.
I pushed closer to the door, gnawing on my lips and got. out when Aiden shot me a stare that told me to get the fuck out or else heâll force me out himself.
Coming to stand beside him, he closed the door while I fixed my blouse and skirt to look more presentable.
I froze when I felt his arm sling around my waist and pull me close. âYouâll still be the most beautiful woman in that restaurant even if you were in rags.
Now come on mama bear, letâs get you fed.â
