Aiden Finnegan the Alchemist in Delcord novel Chapter 81

The two of them frolicked and played for a while. Angelina could never catch up with Aiden, which frustrated her.

Suddenly, Angelina squatted down and clutched her stomach.

Observing this, Aiden asked, "What's wrong? Angelina, are you already tired?"

"M-My stomach hurts. It feels like indigestion," Angelina said, wincing in pain.

Upon hearing that, Aiden hurriedly came to Angelina's side. They had just eaten and then engaged in such vigorous activity, which could easily lead to indigestion.

Aiden squatted down beside Angelina with a concerned expression and said, "Let me help you up. I'll take you back to the medical center to relieve your discomfort."

At that moment, Angelina suddenly grabbed Aiden's ear and said, "Now, let's see where you can run."

Only then did Aiden realize that she was pretending to be sick just to lure him over.

However, his ear was already in her grasp.

"Ouch!" Aiden exclaimed in pain.

But Angelina proudly stood up, holding onto Aiden's ear and questioning, "Are you still going to run?"

"I won't run. I promise," Aiden pleaded.

Witnessing the playful scene between the two, the people on the street smiled kindly, thinking that they were a perfect couple.

"I'll let you off this time," Angelina said as she released Aiden's ear.

Aiden rubbed his ear and looked at Angelina with a helpless expression, saying, "You trickster."

"Of course," Angelina said confidently.

"Indeed, women are born actresses," Aiden gritted his teeth.

Angelina glanced at him and said in surprise, "You didn't just find that out today, did you?"

Aiden nodded, thinking to himself that he would have to be careful when he was around her.

Seeing Aiden still rubbing his ear, Angelina suddenly realized that she might have been too harsh with him.

Then, she asked with concern, "Aiden, did I hurt you?"

"Of course. I think it's already red," Aiden complained, showing his ear to Angelina.

Sure enough, Aiden's ear had turned red. Angelina apologized, feeling embarrassed, "Aiden, I didn't mean to pinch you so hard. I wasn't paying attention."

"Why did you go so far when playing around?" Aiden said unhappily.

Observing Aiden's expression, Angelina suddenly felt a pang in her heart. It seemed that he was genuinely in pain. Otherwise, he wouldn't speak to her in such a tone.

"I'm sorry. Let me massage it for you," Angelina offered, about to approach him.

However, Aiden declined, saying, "No need."

After saying that, he walked ahead on his own. Angelina, realizing that Aiden was angry, hurriedly followed him.

When she caught up with him, she held his arm and asked, "Did I hurt you?"

But Aiden remained silent and continued walking forward.

Witnessing that, Angelina blinked and playfully said, "Aiden, I didn't mean it, really. Can you forgive me?"

As she spoke, she kept nudging Aiden's arm.

Feeling the soft touch of her rubbing against him, Aiden felt happy but still deliberately maintained a serious expression.

Angelina, seeing that Aiden still didn't speak, continued shaking his arm and asked, "What do you want me to do so that you won't be angry?"

At that moment, Aiden's heart was already fluttering. He never expected Angelina, a career woman, to act so cutely and seem so skilled at it.

What Aiden didn't know was that acting cute was a talent that women were born with.

In response, Helena made several gestures and pointed at Aiden before pointing at herself.

Confused by Helena's gestures, Angelina looked at her and asked, "What does this mean? Speak up."

"She has a sore throat and won't be able to speak for a few days," Aiden casually chimed in.

As soon as Aiden finished speaking, Nameless, who was cleaning, burst into laughter.

Observing Nameless' reaction and Helena's anxious expression, Angelina tentatively asked, "Did Aiden make you lose your voice?"

Upon hearing those words, Helena immediately breathed a sigh of relief and nodded vigorously.

Angelina turned to Aiden with a smile and asked, "Why won't you let her speak?"

"She keeps defying me," Aiden calmly replied, then looked at Helena and said, "Are you tattling on me?"

Upon hearing that, Helena turned around and was about to return to the medicine cabinet.

But Angelina stood up and stopped Helena, saying, "Helena, it's alright. You can speak. If Aiden doesn't allow it, I'll deal with him."

Helena had a worried expression as she turned around and gestured to her neck, indicating the spot where Aiden had pricked her with an acupuncture needle yesterday.

Aiden glanced at Helena and then calmly said, "Will you listen to me from now on when I speak?"

Helena quickly nodded.

"And will you stop arguing with me in the future?"

Helena vigorously shook her head.

Seeing that, Aiden stood up with a satisfied look, took out a golden needle, and inserted it into an acupoint under Helena's chin.
