Chapter 839 Coming Out of Her Room Late at Night
Both of them were taken aback, and Mateo immediately looked wary.
Nora was also startled. Could it be that someone was after Mateo again?
Mateo pointed inside, indicating that he wanted to hide.
Nora nodded. After Mateo went into the inner room, she cleared her throat and asked, "Who is it?"
"It's me."
Aaron's familiar voice rang out, and Nora's heart leaped with joy.
The person outside wasn't after Mateo; it was Aaron.
Nora quickly opened the door and saw Aaron standing there, looking travel-worn.
"Aaron, you're finally here!"
Nora threw herself into his arms.
Aaron smiled, holding her and kissing her on the forehead.
"Did you miss me?"
"Yes, I missed you so much," Nora replied softly.
Aaron's heart warmed, and he leaned in for a passionate French kiss.
"Me too."
Nora closed her eyes and responded fervently to him.
Kissing her, Aaron moved from the doorway into the room, lifting his long leg to close the door, wanting to take things further.
Nora remembered that Mateo was still inside and quickly stopped his hand, dodging his kisses.
"Stop."
"What's wrong?"
Aaron's breathing deepened, his brown eyes filled with desire.
He straightened Nora up and looked her over, finally noticing that she was dressed very formally.
"Dressed so formally, are you going out?"
Nora blinked.
"Dr. Smith, do you have a guest?"
At this moment, Mateo walked out from inside.
Aaron's smile froze, and he looked up sharply, his eyes cold with surprise.
Late at night, seeing a man coming out of his wife's room would make anyone think the worst.
"Nora, who is he?"
Aaron's grip on Nora's waist tightened.
Nora's heart skipped a beat.
She thought, 'This situation is too strange.'
'Even if Aaron trusts her, she can't explain it clearly.'
'Aaron, please don't misunderstand.'
"Dr. Smith, who is he?"
Mateo stood in front of them, his gaze sweeping over Aaron's handsome face, his brown eyes deep.
Nora glanced at Mateo, frowning. "You really don't know who he is?"
Since Mateo knew she was a doctor, he must have investigated her background.
If he had investigated her, he would definitely know she was engaged to Aaron.
So Mateo definitely knew Aaron's identity.
What an act! Mateo should be in Hollywood!
Mateo feigned innocence and said, "Dr. Smith, aren't you going to introduce us?"
Nora didn't know what Mateo was up to. She glared at him, about to speak, but Aaron spoke first, "I'm Aaron, her husband. Who are you?"
Aaron's face was cold, his strong arm holding Nora tightly, claiming her as his own.
Mateo looked at Nora and teased, "Dr. Smith, why don't you tell him who I am? I'm afraid it might scare him."
"My husband isn't that easily scared."
Nora replied irritably, then looked at Aaron, her tone softening.
"Aaron, he's Prince Mateo of Hchilia."
Aaron's brown eyes narrowed, saying, "He's the Prince of Hchilia. Why is he here in your room late at night?"
"He..."
"I have some business with Dr. Smith."
Mateo interrupted, "I came this afternoon and I just saw Dr. Smith sleeping and drooling."
His words were ambiguous.
It sounded like he had been in the same room with Nora the whole time.
A man and a woman alone in a room - it was a recipe for speculation.
Feeling Aaron's aura grow colder, Nora was speechless.
"Mateo, if you keep talking nonsense, get out!"
Mateo looked at her innocently and said, "Dr. Smith, which part of what I said was nonsense?"
Nora was at a loss for words.
"No..."
"Mateo, what business do you have with my wife?"
Aaron interrupted her, asking in a deep voice.
"Dr. Smith is a healer. I came to see her for a medical issue," Mateo said.
Aaron glanced at Mateo, his sexy lips parting slightly.
"You appear to be lacking energy and sluggish. These symptoms could indicate a kidney deficiency. Are you here to consult with my wife about your sexual health?"
Mateo was taken aback, his innocent expression changing slightly."I..."
"Or are you here because you're mentally unwell and need my wife to treat your psychological issues?"
Aaron didn't wait for him to respond and added another line.
Nora couldn't help but laugh.
Aaron was indirectly mocking Mateo, suggesting he was either physically weak or mentally ill!
This was her husband.
Even his insults were cultured.
Mateo's handsome face darkened, and he stared at Aaron without a word.
Nora tilted her head towards Aaron, saying, "Aaron, when did you learn how to diagnose illnesses?"
Aaron's stern expression softened. He looked down at Nora's pretty face, his eyes gentle and doting.
"I'm learning it from you."
Nora blinked. She felt Aaron was deliberately showing off their love in front of Mateo.
But as long as Aaron didn't misunderstand her, it was fine.
Nora explained, "Mateo's servant had a heart attack, and he wanted me to treat her. The reason he's in my room is because of his special status. I'll explain the details to you later."
Nora's eyes were clear. She was afraid Aaron would misunderstand, so she explained promptly.
"Where's Frederick?"
Aaron didn't see Frederick.
Was Frederick being too lax?
"He might be resting." Nora hadn't thought about it.
Mateo raised an eyebrow, a hint of interest in his eyes.
As they were talking, Frederick finally appeared.
"Mr. Gordon, you're here."
Aaron turned slightly, looking him up and down.
Frederick's eyes seemed a bit dull, not as sharp as usual.
Aaron's brown eyes narrowed, and he asked in a deep voice, "Frederick, were you resting just now?"
As Nora's bodyguard, if they were in the Chrisland, he wouldn't need to do much at night.
But they were abroad, and he was resting so early!
"No, I don't know what happened. I just fell asleep."
Frederick's eyes showed a hint of apology and confusion.
He didn't even know a stranger had entered Nora's room.
When did his vigilance become so poor?
"Fell asleep? Are you sick?"
Aaron was equally suspicious.
"No."
At this moment, Mateo let out a light laugh.
Nora turned to him and asked, "What are you laughing at?"
