Chapter 883 He Might Be Nearsighted
Aaron raised an eyebrow. "Babe, I just want to admire your beauty."
He leaned in for a kiss.
Nora quickly dodged. "Cut it out, or I'll get mad."
Aaron chuckled, ruffled her hair, and backed off.
"Let's go shoot the next scene."
"Alright."
In the corner, two women watched their interaction and exchanged glances.
"Are we losing our touch? He didn't even notice us."
"Yeah, is he not interested?"
"Let's report back to the princes."
Meanwhile, Rafael was in Miguel's chamber, sipping coffee and waiting for news.
"Rafael, the two I sent are my best dancers. No man can resist them," Miguel said confidently.
Rafael took a sip, thinking about the countless seductive positions he'd seen those two in, and felt a bit parched. No man could resist such women. Aaron would definitely be captivated.
But reality didn't match their expectations.
The women returned, reporting that Aaron had no reaction at all.
Miguel's smile froze. "No way, he saw you and didn't react? Was it because that woman was with him?"
One of the women hesitated. "I watched him closely. When he saw us, there was no spark in his eyes. He really wasn't interested."
Miguel stood there, still in disbelief. "Is he even a man? Rafael, this isn't working!"
Rafael squinted, puzzled. As a man, he knew men had their weaknesses. Faced with such women, Aaron was actually unmoved!
After a moment, Rafael said, "Maybe he's nearsighted."
Miguel was speechless.
Another dancer chimed in, "But we sprayed ourselves with aphrodisiac perfume. Could it be that his nose isn't working either?"
Annoyance flashed in Rafael's eyes. "Are you questioning me?"
The dancer quickly lowered her head. "I wouldn't dare."
Rafael gave her a cold glance. "Prepare yourselves. During the banquet, try to seduce him with your dance."
"Yes."
The two quickly retreated.
Miguel said, "Rafael, what if Aaron's all about his wife and no other woman catches his eye?"
Rafael laughed coldly. "That's impossible. No man could resist the allure of beautiful women."
Miguel said, "But you just heard, such beauties appeared in front of him, and he didn't react at all."
Rafael said, "Don't worry, we'll see after the banquet. If he's really not interested in the dancers, it means these women aren't to his taste, and we'll have to think of another way."
Miguel nodded. "Okay, I'll follow your lead."
On the other side...
Nora and Aaron walked around outside for a while before Mateo found them, telling them to get ready for the banquet.
They returned to their chamber, freshened up, and headed to the banquet.
By this time, Tomas and the others were already in the banquet hall, sitting in their respective seats, waiting for them.
The dining tables were separate, adorned with various exquisite foods.
Mateo led them to a table and gestured for them to sit. He then took a seat beside them.
Soon, a servant came to pour wine.
"She'll have water, thanks," Aaron told the servant.
The servant looked confused, so Mateo translated. The servant quickly swapped Nora's wine glass for water.
"Mr. Gordon, Dr. Smith, did you get a chance to look around?" Tomas asked with a smile.
"We did. The palace is beautiful," Aaron replied politely.
Tomas laughed heartily. "Make yourselves at home. If you need anything, just ask."
"Thank you."
"Let's start eating then," Tomas said, signaling everyone to begin.
Miguel chimed in, "Father, Mr. Gordon and Dr. Smith are our honored guests. To welcome them, I've arranged some entertainment."
Tomas glanced at him and nodded approvingly.
Miguel clapped his hands, and a group of beautiful women entered in single file. They wore red belly-dancing outfits, with headpieces and veils. Their eyes, adorned with exquisite makeup, added to their exotic charm.
As the music started, the dancers began to move.
Nora took a sip of water, her eyes glued to the performance. Such beautiful women, such beautiful dancing! Their every move was captivating. Even as a woman, Nora couldn't help but be impressed. Let alone the men.
Nora instinctively glanced at Aaron, seeing him frowning and texting someone. She was speechless. If she weren't subjected to Aaron's nightly advances, she might seriously doubt his sexual capabilities! With such beauties in front of him, Aaron still had the mind to play with his phone!
Nora tugged at his sleeve and whispered, "Aaron, what are you doing? Watch the dance!"
"Yeah, let me finish this work first," Aaron replied without looking up, continuing to fiddle with his phone.
Nora was speechless. Fine, Aaron was a busy man; she wouldn't disturb him.
Opposite them, Rafael watched Aaron not even lift his head, his face darkening. Rafael had doubted the dancers' words earlier, thinking they were exaggerating, but now he saw it with his own eyes. This Aaron really wasn't interested in women. He thought, 'Does he not like this type of woman?'
Rafael glanced at Nora, squinting. 'Could it be that Aaron likes plain women like Nora?'
At this moment, the lead dancer removed her veil, performed a beautiful move, and threw the veil towards Aaron. The veil gently landed on Aaron's shoulder.
Aaron frowned, finally looking up at the dancer. She twisted her waist and threw him a seductive glance. If it were a normal man, he would definitely have reacted by now. But Aaron just glanced at her indifferently, then looked away. He threw the veil aside and disdainfully patted his shoulder.
The dancer, arranged by Miguel, froze, instinctively glancing at Miguel. Miguel, who had been watching closely, turned black with anger. He could only signal the dancer to retreat.
Nora blinked. When the dancer removed her veil, she recognized her. Seeing the dancer throw a seductive glance at Aaron, Nora raised an eyebrow. She thought, 'Is this part of the dance, or is the dancer trying to seduce Aaron?'
