Chapter 397 A Matter of Mutual Consent Aiden wasn't sure if it was the alcohol or something else, but when he looked at Isidora, he felt a strong urge. He grabbed her hand, wrapped his other arm around her waist, and pulled her onto him, flipping her over onto the couch.
That night, they had a wild and impulsive encounter on the sofa.
The next morning, Isidora struggled to sit up, rubbing her sore back. When she opened her eyes, she realized Aiden and his belongings were all gone.
Did Aiden just run off? Isidora was puzzled. They had just slept together, and now he was gone without a word? She wasn't even sure how she felt about it yet.
Despite her confusion, she couldn't help but blush as she recalled the previous night's passion. The room still carried the lingering scent of their encounter.
Before leaving the room, Isidora cleaned herself up and then headed back home.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAt the Cooper Mansion, Aiden sneaked in, trying to avoid being noticed. He didn't want anyone to know he had spent the night elsewhere.
But as soon as he stepped inside, he saw Leon and Tiffany sitting on the couch, staring at him silently.
They didn't want to look at Aiden, but his sneaky behavior was too suspicious to ignore.
"Where were you, Aiden?" Tiffany asked with a knowing smile.
"Uh, I... I had a few drinks and couldn't drive, so I stayed out. Nothing happened, really. Don't overthink it!" Aiden stammered, his explanation becoming more convoluted.
Leon adjusted his glasses and put down his planner, calmly looking at Aiden. "You went to a reunion, right? How did you get so drunk?" Aiden was taken aback. "So... you know about Dorinda..." "Yes," Tiffany nodded. She assumed Aiden had gone out to drown his sorrows.
But Aiden's shifty behavior suggested there was more to the story.
"You weren't talking aboutbehind my back, were you?" Aiden asked awkwardly.
Tiffany couldn't resist teasing him. "We were wondering if you met a girl last night. Did you, Aiden?" Aiden's face changed immediately, looking like he had been caught red-handed.

"So, it was someone we know?" Tiffany asked, piecing things together.
Aiden nodded, looking like a guilty child.
Tiffany's breath quickened. "Aiden... don't tell me... it was Isidora?" Aiden's silence confirmed it.
He braced himself for Tiffany's reaction, but nothing happened.
Instead, Ulysses appeared behind him, clapping him on the shoulder. "Nice going, Aiden. I always thought Isidora liked you. So, are you two together now?" Tiffany had the squestion. She had noticed Isidora's feelings for Aiden and had even considered setting them up.

Tiffany frowned. "You're not together?" Aiden shook his head.
"So, you slept together because you were drunk, and then you just left?" Tiffany was surprised. She thought Aiden would take responsibility.
"It was mutual... I just..." Aiden trailed off, unsure of what to do.
Tiffany sighed, frustrated. But she knew it was a mutual decision. If Isidora had wanted to force Aiden, she wouldn't have let him leave.
"What's your plan now? Do you want to be with her or pretend it never happened?" Tiffany asked.
"I don't know..." Aiden admitted, choosing to avoid the situation for now. "You're really dragging this out. Be a man," Ulysses chimed in, unable to hold back.
"I can't decide for Isidora. I know I need to take responsibility, but last night was so sudden. don't know if she meant what she said because of the alcohol," Aiden explained.
"Then go rest and think it over. We're not pressuring you. We just want you We understand your own feelings," Leon concluded, trying to ease Aiden's burden. Aiden nodded and was about to head upstairs when Isidora's voice called out from the hallway.
"Wait, I have something to say!"
