CHAPTER SEVENTY SEVENTWO MONTHS LATER**BRIANNA**Adrian really fulfilled his promise about paying for my mom's treatment. After we came back from our trip to Spain, Adrian got in contact with his personal doctor and my mom was admitted in their hospital. She has been in the hospital for a month and few weeks now and finally got home today."It's good to have you home, mom." I said as I hugged her again. She was looking more healthy and wasn't as skinny as she was before. "It's good to be home." She chuckled as she hugged me back. I missed inhaling her flowery scent."Thanks for everything, Adrian. I couldn't imagine this happening without your help." I said to Adrian who was sitting on the couch and he smiled at me briefly."It's fine, no need for you to thank me." He uttered."Okay! What do y'all want for lunch? Homemade food or should we order?" I asked enthusiastically."We should definitely order." Marianna chipped in excitedly."Pizza and soda, anyone?" I asked."Yes!" Everybo

CHAPTER SEVENTY SIX**BRIANNA**I was woken up by the loud sound of the blender coming from downstairs. It sounded like a machine was in the house or something. I looked around me and noticed that I was laying on the blood and was covered by the duvet. I raised the duvet and saw that I was naked underneath it. It was at that moment, I remembered everything that happened last night. My cheeks flamed hot when I remembered every single details of what happened. How will I face Adrian after what happened last night?A frustrated groan left my mouth.After some minutes, I heard footsteps coming towards my room so I closed my eyes and pretended to sleep. I heard him walk into the room and I also heard the clatter of something being dropped on the bedside table. I peeled my eyes open slightly to see what he was doing and I saw him open the curtains, letting the sunlight inside and the room became brighter."I know you're awake." I heard him say, with his back facing me and I flinched slightl

CHAPTER SEVENTY FIVEEVENING; AROUND 7 P.M.**BRIANNA**We were just getting home after a long day of visiting Museo Nacional del Prado. I must admit, that was the best museum I have ever been to in my life. Not like I have been to any museum, but I have a feeling that that would be the best one ever.We saw a lot of paintings by popular artists. Some of them were The Garden of Early Delights, a triptych oil painting by Hieronymus Bosch; we also saw Las Meninas, a painting by Diego Velazquez and we saw the painting "Saturn Devouring His Son" by Francisco Goya. Saturn Devouring His Son was the one that captivated me the most and I didn't even know the reason why.Back to the present time, Adrian and I just stepped into the house with me on his back. He gave me a piggyback ride on our way home because of how tired I was. Now, he was helping me take off my sneakers."You're so sweet." I murmured while playing with his hair as he his sitting on the floor in front of me."I do my best." H

CHAPTER SEVENTY FOUR**BRIANNA**I peeled my eyes open when I suddenly felt the bright rays of sunshine on my face. The first thing my eyes came in contact with was Adrian who had a small smile on his face."Good morning, Sunshine!" He greeted cheerily."Good morning." I replied out, my voice sounding like a frog's that I almost couldn't recognize it. "What time is it?" I asked, attempting to get into a sitting position but I quickly decided against it when a strong wave of headache hit me.I groaned loudly."You probably shouldn't do that. You're hungover." Adrian said, coming to sit beside me with a bottle of water and aspirin in hand."Ugh! How much did I drink last night?" I asked, moaning in pain."Around five shot glasses, I guess you're a lightweight because I wasn't even affected by the drink." He said with a teasing smile."Geez! How did I drink that much?" I exclaimed and took the bottle of water and aspirin from him when he offered them to me.I took the aspirin and gulped

CHAPTER SEVENTY THREETWO DAYS LATER**BRIANNA**After two days of meeting with the investors, Mr. Gomez and his partner finally decided to invest in A.C. Robotics (one of the companies under Adrian's name) and now, Adrian and I are going out to celebrate."Adrian, where exactly are we going?" I asked him for the umpteenth time. This is the question I have been asking him ever since we got into the car and he began driving to God knows where.He sighed exasperatedly at my question."You won't stop asking me this question till I answer you, right?" He grumbled."Nope!" I said, popping the 'p'."Fine, we're going to a club to celebrate our win." He finally answered."Wow, really?" I asked, my eyes lighting up."Yeah, we're going to drink and dance. But nobody is getting drunk, at least not me because I have to drive." He uttered."That's a cool idea." I clapped enthusiastically.Minutes later, Adrian pulled over in front of a building with "The Dinero Lounge" written in neon light. We a

CHAPTER SEVENTY TWO**BRIANNA**"Brianna... Wake up." I felt someone tap me but I snuggled closer to the soft pillow."Five more minutes mom..." I moaned and I heard a deep chuckle that didn't sound like my mother."Wake up, we're running late." I heard again ad the person shook me and I slowly peeled my eyes open. It took a second for me to remember that I wasn't at home and the person that was waking me was not my mom, but Adrian. I also remembered that I was no longer in California but in Madrid, Spain."Good morning, sunshine!" He smiled at me brightly."Good morning!" I said and tried to smile at him, but it came out more like a grimace."Ooh, you're not a morning person." He laughed."I hate mornings." I grumbled."Unfortunately, we have to go. It's almost 11 and the meeting with the investors is by 12. And I know it takes a while for y'all ladies to get dressed." He uttered and I quickly got out of bed."Thanks for waking me up. Let me go take my bath." I said and went towards

Chapter Seventeen•KIANA•The store attendant removed the money for the gadgets from Mr. Aiden's credit card and packed what we bought properly. I tried to collect the package from the attendant but Mr. Aiden stopped me."Leave it." He ordered and I stayed rooted to the spot."Get that package." He said to one of the guards that accompanied us and the guard did as he said."Our job here is done." He uttered and walked out of the store and I immediately followed behind him, trying my best to not get him angry with my walking steps because he got angry at the slightest things.We got into the car and the guards went into the car that they followed us with.Mr. Aiden started the car and drove out of the store premises and began driving down a road that was different from the route we took when we were coming. Maybe he's just taking a different route to the Villa?During the long drive, I must have fallen asleep at some point because when I was woken up and I opened my eyes, I saw that we

Chapter Sixteen|Next Morning|•KIANA•I went to bed last night thinking about the words Mr. Aiden said to me before I went to my room to sleep. I didn't even disrespect anyone and he was saying that, I was just showing Sophia that she shouldn't treat people like trash. Oh well. I snapped out of my train of thoughts when I heard a knock on the door. I immediately stood up and went to unlock it and I saw Julie standing at the doorway with her usual smile on her pretty face."Good morning, Kiana." She hollered cheerfully. "Thanks for standing up for me last night. Nobody has ever done that.""Good morning, Julie." I responded. "It's not a problem. Forget about it.""Well, have you taken your bath? You're going out with Mr. Aiden this morning." She asked and stated."No, I haven't. I just woke up a few minutes ago." I replied."Okay, let me go prepare your bath then." She said and went into the bathroom while I sat back down on my bed."Your bath is ready, come on in!" Julie called out

Chapter Fifteen•KIANA•"And who the heck are you to tell me what to do?" She asked while glaring at me dangerously."Aiden's fiancee." I responded and her eyes widened a bit in realization."So you're the little fiancee, I have heard a lot about you." She said with a wicked glint in her eyes."I am the fiancee, and for your information, I'm not little." I snapped at her and I could see amusement in her eyes."I don't have your time, only a fool would exchange words with an immature minded bitch like you." She grinned."Then I guess you're a fool then." I smirked at her and her face turned red in anger, if we were to be in a cartoon right now, steam would be coming out of her whole face."You know, you should really mind the way you speak to people. Do I look like your mate, someone you can talk to anyhow?" She asked in a loud voice."And do I look like I care?" I retorted. I don't know what got into me but I just hate this Sophia girl already. It must be because of the way she treate

Chapter Fourteen•KIANA•I slowly walked away from the door after a few minutes of listening to their moans of pleasure that made me feel weird. It was hard for me to move away from the door as I was rooted to the spot, listening to their moans and even though it shouldn't, I got wet from listening to them and I wondered what they were doing behind the closed doors. If I didn't leave there on time, I would have done something irrational, like sliding my hands into my shorts and playing with my pussy or even go inside and ask if I could join them. Gosh, why am I still thinking about this?!I was on my way to my bedroom when Julie stopped me in the hallway."Where are you going? You haven't had dinner yet." She stated and that was when I remembered that I was yet to eat dinner but I was even feeling hungry."Uhh Julie, I'm not really feeling hungry this night. I'll just go to bed now." I replied."No can do, Miss Young Lady Ma'am!" She uttered and I couldn't help the loud laughter that

Chapter Thirteen•KIANA•"Close your mouth and stop gaping like a fish. You look like you just saw a ghost." He said and I snapped my mouth close in embarrassment. I see a hint of a smile on his face but I must have been hallucinating because this man has never smiled in front of me, never. And I doubt if he has ever smiled in his life.I've had more embarrassing moments these past few minutes than I've ever had in my life. I think I should get out of here."Can I go now, Sir?" I asked as politely as I could."Did I give you the permission to go? You'll be sitting there till I tell you to go." He replied and I groaned."Why should I sit here when I don't have anything to do?" I grumbled under my breath but he seemed to have heard me."Did you say something?" He asked, staring at me and I quickly shook my head in denial."Me? I would never." I said immediately."I thought as much." He said in a clipped tone and faced his work once again. Oh my gosh, what's my purpose of being in this o

Chapter Twelve|Evening|•KIANA•I was just coming back to my room after hours of gossiping and having fun with Liam. He told me a lot of things about Aiden. They had been friends since they were kids because boh of their parents were friends and they even thought of each other as brothers that they never had. Liam's parents died in a plane crash and Aiden's parents took him in since none of his parents' family members were turning up. He also told me that Aiden was a chubby kid, he even showed me pictures of him and I felt like pulling his cheeks through the phone. I was shocked that a cute chubby little boy that looked like he would be scared of spiders grew up to be a very hot muscular man that scares the shit out of people.I was laying on my bed, staring at the ceiling like something interesting was going on there. I was beginning to drift off to sleep when I heard a knock on the door. I slowly stood up and went to answer the door. I saw Julie standing outside my room and she smi
