Chapter 199 199 - Questions



Melinda who just saw her react that way didn\'t ask too many questions and simply nodded her head, not caring about it as she simply wanted to hear Aiden\'s answers as fast as she could.

However, Aiden couldn\'t help but be worried about what she had just mumbled, because she was the person who could potentially know about the old Aiden.

So, that\'s why when he saw her shocked face, Aiden made sure to stay calm and not show any signs of being worried.

Nonetheless, it was hard to keep a straight face for so long which is why Aiden couldn\'t help but slowly tap his feet on the ground as Melinda continued to ask her earlier questions.

*Tap*

*Tap*

*Tap*

"Alright, so what\'s your name?" asked Melinda, ignoring the sound that Aiden was currently making.

"Aiden, I already told you," said Aiden, repeating his earlier response, pretending to be annoyed.

He wanted to give as little information as he could that\'s why he would make sure to keep his answers short and sweet.

"I know about that already, so what\'s your real last name and don\'t tell me Everheart or whatever thing you\'re going to come up with. You\'re real one," said Melinda, as she started to apply a little pressure onto Aiden as she was clearly tired of being played around with.

\'Well, I guess I can just tell her that I didn\'t have one before,\' thought Aiden as this was pretty much the most logical answer that he had found in that lapse of time.

However, before he could even attempt to respond, Emma who wasn\'t too far from him replied instead of him.

"He doesn\'t have one, he has no family, he comes from the Slums," she said in quick succession giving some bits of information to Melinda.

However, hearing her response, Aiden was actually happy since it made seem all the more truthful that somebody else had the same response as him.

"The Slums?" uttered Lilia, out of nowhere.

*Tap*

*Tap*

*Tap*

Aiden\'s tapping with his foot accentued when he heard her say such a thing, however, he still ignored her.

However, seeing that everyone had turned their heads toward her, she once again shut her mouth as quickly as she had opened it.

Seeing that she wasn\'t going to talk again, everyone simply ignored her.

"You\'re from the Slums?" asked Melinda, trying to make sure that Emma wasn\'t lying.

Melinda was doubtful because who could even expect someone who had just become Awakened only a month ago to be winning the Inter Family Tournament?

In Melinda\'s mind, Aiden had been trained since a young age, having access to all sorts of different resources. 

However, none of those assumptions were even close to the truth.

"I am," said Aiden, once again, cutting his answers as short as he possibly could.

"When did you join the Everheart family?" asked Melinda, as she knew that depending on his answer, his worth could potentially skyrocket even more than it already was.

\'Should I lie about that?\' thought Aiden, as he heard the voice of Emma once again on his left.

Aiden didn\'t know why but she seemed to be trying to prove something to Melinda. Like proving that Aiden was insanely talented or something like that and while doing it she even seemed mad.

"It\'s been at most two months since he joined our family."

Melinda this time was in shock, only two months?!

That simply made no sense.

"How long has it been since you awakened?" asked Melinda, as she was ready to be further shocked by what Aiden was about to say.

"I don\'t know, around two months," said Aiden this time.

He knew that he couldn\'t really lie in this scenario because of Emma and Maelis which would probably contradict him if he were to tell a lie.

"Two months?! And you\'re that strong already," exclaimed Melinda.

Aiden was a little shocked by that shout, nonetheless, he knew that the speed at which he was getting stronger was ridiculous.

However, in his mind, it still wasn\'t enough because everywhere that he looked he saw stronger and stronger people.

"Um, I guess," replied Aiden, not seeing happy with his progress.

"No way," mumbled Lilia once again out of nowhere.

This time, Melinda simply couldn\'t endure anymore.

First, there was her constant mumbling, then there was Aiden\'s foot tapping and now Lilia was sometimes uttering things for no reason.

"Are you okay? What\'s going on with you?" asked Melinda, tired of hearing her.

"Yea, yea I\'m fine, sorry."

"Then, stop shouting things out of nowhere or being surprised, it\'s annoying."

Melinda knew that she had just been surprised, however, Lilia always had a delayed reaction as if she was thinking of so many things at the same time.

Lilia hearing Melinda reprimanding her slowly nodded making sure that no words would leave her mouth.

However, containing herself right now was really hard.

A person who was supposed to be dead was standing right in front of her.

She simply couldn\'t help but shout something when learning more about what had happened during the time that she had thought of him as a dead person.

She knew that her instincts had been right since the very beginning, she knew the person in front of her very well as she had spent years with him trying to comfort him as much as she could.

Lilia knew of his past and how much he had gone through during the years when he lived with the Nightshades.

She thought that he had been killed by his own father, but it seemed that hadn\'t been the case, he was still alive and he was better than ever.

He was right there, a few steps away from her.

Her past boyfriend whom she had lost many years ago, was now back in front of her living a completely different life.
