Chapter 1552: Chapter 1370: It’s Different Now, I Have You.

"Hickory Town, is it far from here?"

Luke was taken aback and said in surprise, "Minister, you’re not thinking of going to find Ms. Aria, are you?"

"Not really." Brandon Heath shook his head.

He was just a little worried about Aria Rowlett going back alone.

And since she suddenly returned to her hometown, she must have encountered some urgent matter.

But he couldn’t contact her now. Even though he was worried, he could only wait for her to get off the plane and then give her a call to ask about the situation.

*

More than two hours later, Aria Rowlett got off the plane.

As soon as she turned on her phone, she saw the missed call notification from Brandon Heath.

She called back.

Quickly, Brandon Heath picked up.

"Aria." The man’s warm voice came through the phone.

"I saw that you called me. Is there anything you need?"

As Aria Rowlett spoke, she waved for a taxi.

Her hometown was in a small county, and it would take more than an hour by bus from the car station to get there.

"Yeah, I went home and didn’t see you. I heard from Ria that you had to go back to your hometown for something?"

"You went home?" Aria Rowlett was taken aback.

"Yes. It feels a little empty without you there."

Aria Rowlett’s heart couldn’t help but speed up at this casual statement from the man. Brandon Heath was really...

Because of his words, Aria felt much better. She held back a smile, her lips curling up slightly, "Brandon, I’ve noticed that you’re getting better and better at sweet talk these days. Have you had any lessons?"

"Hmm?" It seemed that Brandon Heath was also smiling, and his low laughter filled Joanna’s ears with a touch of affection and tenderness.

"You’ve gotten better at saying nice things to please people, haven’t you?"

"How am I trying to please you?"

"Didn’t you just..." Aria Rowlett thought about how Brandon Heath didn’t even know what flirting meant, and concluded that she was probably overthinking it.

Brandon Heath was not trying to please her.

He was genuinely saying that he found the house empty because that’s how he felt.

However, Aria Rowlett still felt touched.

Because Brandon Heath wasn’t good at sweet talk, whatever he said wasn’t just to please someone else.

She raised the corners of her lips even more, "Brandon, it seems that I am very important to you. When I’m not around, you feel empty at home. Before, when we weren’t together, you were alone too, right? Besides, there are still Ria and others at home, so how can it be empty?"

"Yes, you are very important," Brandon Heath’s voice was still gentle and warm, "Ria and the others are not like you. I was always by myself before, but now things have changed. I have you."

Aria Rowlett: "..."

Could he please not say those words in such a serious tone?

Her heart started to race uncontrollably again.

"Aria, why did you go home? Is there an emergency in your family? Do you need my help?" After a pause, Brandon Heath added, "If you need assistance, I can send someone over."

Thinking about what her mother had told her on the phone, Aria furrowed her brows, and her mood inevitably worsened.

However, she didn’t want to worry Brandon Heath, so she took a deep breath, calmed herself down, and said, "It’s just some miscellaneous issues at home, I can handle them myself. If I can’t, I’ll let you know."

"Well, that’s good. Aria, remember that we are a couple now.
