"Ash, I was so scared"

Aria whispered while hugging Asher tightly. The fear, unbearable pain, the feeling of being lost and lonely, and the desperation and guilt that followed as soon as she saw that dead body when she mistaken that for Asher's was too much to bear. She realised that it's not as easy as she thought it would be to leave Asher. It would be like losing herself along with him. She might not be able to survive a day without him.

The image of Bryan sent chills down her spine. But her fear over Bryan felt like it was nothing in front of the feeling of losing Asher. She lived under the same roof with both the men. One of the scares the hell out of her, and she cannot live without the other.

She realised that leaving Asher means losing her life.

"I am fine. Don't worry" he rubbed her back, soothing her fears. This close, he could feel her heart still pounding loudly. She just confessed that she loves him too, and he still remembers the way she looked at him that morning.

    "No" Bruce refused to believe that Aria, his Aria is already someone's wife. He refused to believe the possibility. He has been searching for her for years now, but to no avail. After so many years, he refused to accept that she turned out to be Asher Morrison's wife. "Are you absolutely sure that the woman who was with Asher Morrison is Aria? I have seen his assistant and the woman who was said to be his wife. She doesn't look like Aria at all. They look completely different. You might have been mistaken" Bruce recollected Natalie and then seeing Aria's back in that party. There is no way the scared and clumsy Aria he was searching for is the hot and confident woman he saw that day. Lance was still following after Asher and Aria.

    'Don't you trust me Aria?' When Asher asked that question in a tone filled with pain, Aria felt extremely sad and guilty for making him feel that way. It's not like she doesn't trust him. "How can I not trust you, Asher? You are the person whom I trust more than anyone else" she shared softly. He looked at her with surprise. He was under the impression that she might not trust him enough to share her problems with him. But her confession made him confused. "If you trust me, then why hide everything from me? What happened the day before yesterday? What triggered your emotional breakdown? What happened back there? What made you think that leaving me would make everything better?" he inquired softly. He never wanted to intrude into her personal life and make her feel uncomfortable. But things changed between them now. He is protective of her like always. He wanted to be there for her. Aria looked at him feeling like an imposter. To Asher, she was always a confident and inde

    "Bryan Smith? I know there was a Smith family in that town. And only an elder lady used to live with an adopted young girl. I remember this particular family because the details you have given me matched perfectly with this particular family. But only one important detail didn't" the PD, James explained. He is the PD whom Asher hired to investigate a man named Bryan whom Aria once mentioned to Asher. Her details were vague and she didn't give him much except for that name. She was a bit tipsy after one of their Friday ladies night out. That night, she witnessed someone abusing a woman and that triggered a section of her past. She mumbled something that shocked Asher to his core. He tried to pry more information from her, but she didn't give him much. The next morning he tried to ask her about Bryan, but she brushed it off as if it's nothing. But Asher remembered her reaction from the other night, so he knows that it's not nothing.

    "Who is your sugar daddy?" Stacy sneered. Aria is breathing heavily, looking wildly around her. She is expecting Bryan to pop in at any second and demand that she go home with him. She is barely listening to their taunts by this time. Asher forgot his mobile in his car, so he went to fetch it after confirming that she would be fine on her own. But little did Aria expect that she would have to face the people from her past one after another. "You ditch, how dare you? Can't you hear that we are asking you something?" Bianca became extremely angry when Aria immediately did not reply. Just then, all the patrons of the mall suddenly rushed to the glass railing of the mall from all the sides, waiting for something which they would know would happen then. Aria was left alone as Stacy and Bianca rushed to see what it was. Aria turned to run, but a loud announcement in the microphone stopped her dead in his tracks. "Today, we are excited to announce that a very special poster from th

    "She fed you lies. You don't know what kind of a woman she is" Stacy insisted. Asher glared at her coldly, while Aria was stiffly standing in his arms. Just their mere presence is evoking fear inside her. If there was ever a time in her life when she found herself helpless and scared out of her mind, then that would be with the Smith family. Nancy was better when compared to these people. She used to make Aria work, and that is that. If the work was done, then Nancy never used to bother Aria. But the other members of the family are not the same. "Enough, don't forget that you are talking to a Morrison. And you are insulting the mistress of the Morrison family. If you value your life and status in Neopolis, I suggest you to keep your tongue in check. One more word against her, then you will dissappear without a trace" he threatened Stacy, who immediately turned pale. Even Bianca looked scared. Even though they envy Aria's good fortune, they cannot afford to offend a Morrison. "I

Bryan was seen getting ready for something important when his sister stormed inside his room with out knocking. "Bianca, how many times should I tell you knock before entering?" he muttered with displeasure. He would have scolded her or cut down her allowance, but he is particularly in a good mood today, so he gave her a displeased look. Bianca barely paid attention to his words as she was too angry and Jealous with Aria. "We met Aria today in the mall" she revealed, completely ignoring his comment. Bryan froze midway through buttoning his shirt when he heard this. His jaw twitched with suppressed anger. "You met her?" he asked evenly and continued buttoning his shirt. Bianca's features twisted a little. "Yes, she changed. She became a different person entirely. But one thing didn't change, that is her fear of us" she started complaining. Wh

Bryan asked, trying to find out where Lance could be. Bianca frowned. She remembered sharing it with her friend. "I told my friend, and thats all. No one else knows that i am meeting Sandro" she replied. Bryan's eyes narrowed. "Sandro knows that you would be coming there. I think he might be behind Lance's dissapperance" Bryan contemplated. Bianca gasped. "Bryan, he is not like that. Sandro is kind" she immediately jumped to defend Sandro. Bryan huffed sarcastically. "Think care

You killing anyone and every one who comes in your way is enough. How many people have you killed so far? When will you stop?" she screamed at the top of her lungs.

No, i am doing this for our family. My destruction is your destruction. Was it not you who wanted Aria to become your maid? That's why i did what i did.

Just then, she remembered what Bianca just said before she received that text and left. 'My brother is not happy with my relationship with Sandro' Bianca's friend smirked and decided to call Bryan.

    Bryan made it a point to attend Andrew's funeral, even though he made it look like he was at odds with Andrew before his death. But he wanted to convince Diego and Asher that he changed. He can only get rid of their suspicion if they believed that he is no longer the same man from the past. So he made it a point to greet Diego and offer his condolenses. "I am sorry for your loss" Bryan offered. Diego looked at him coldy without saying a word. Bryan simply turned and left with a grim expression. He didn't let his anger show until he was safely inside his car. "Idiot, why was he looking at me like i murdered his father? That old bastard died on his own. I don't have anything to do with it. He doesnt seems to believe me. But no problem. I will make them think that i changed" Byan thought. On the other hand, Bianca was seen in one of her friends house.

    "Mom, calm down. Nothing will happen to her" Bryan assured Stacy. Stacy looked at him uncertainty. By this point, Bianca left the Smith residence and her retreating figure dissappeared into the darkness. "Nothing will happen to her? Are you crazy? A lone woman in the dead of the night will become a target to bad people. How can you still say that nothing will happen to her?" Stacy demanded. Bryan received a call right at that moment from his friend Lance. "I am following after her" Lance confirmed. Bryan planned all this. He expected Bianca to go and find Sandro once she was kicked out of the house. So he put Lance behind her to follow her from a distance. "Good, keep me posted" Bryan replied before disconnecting the call. Stacy frowned when she heard the conversation. She looked confused. "Bryan, what is this all about?" she inquired.

    In the Smith’s residence, Stacy looked anxious while Bianca was still crying softly sitting at one corner of her bed. "You shouldn't have called that guy, Bianca. What were you thinking? Did you think about the consequences if your actions before making that call? Did you think about what would happen to your brother? To us? Our family reputation? Did you think about any of this?" Stacy demanded angrily. Bianca on the other hand was folded into herself in fetal position. She didn't utter a single word. She is scared and thats all she was feeling. She didn't think about Bryan. She didn't think about anyone but herself. When Stacy didn't get a reply from her daughter, she became even more upset. "Bianca, I am talking to you" she snapped at her.
