Arwen's gaze remained darkened even after she disconnected the call. But the moment she heard Aiden's concerned voice from the side, her expression eased.
Turning to him, she blinked and then shook her head. "Someone irrelevant. Don't mind it. Let's watch the movie."
She then picked up the remote and resumed the video. Then, scooting over, she got back into his arms, making it wrap around her frame once again.
Aiden stared at her for a long moment, waiting for her expression to change, but when he truly saw her disregard whoever appeared at her office, he didn't think it was worth more thought than he had already given it.
They spent the rest of the afternoon watching a movie and having a good time together. Arwen remained meticulous throughout. Even though they enjoyed and played, she never forgot to check on his temperature from time to time. She even made sure that he takes his medicines on time so that the fever doesn't recur.
And it didn't.
