"Nina? What happened to you? Why is your arm bandaged?" Agatha asked worriedly.Nina gave her a sad smile. Out of everyone whom she thought were her family, none of them bothered about her injuries. Theo ignored her injuries thinking that she was faking them. Her father was more worried about what he could gain from her rather than her well being. But Agatha, Whom Nina met her by chance became a mother to her. She is genuinely worried about her.'Sad that I might not be able to meet her often after my divorce with Theo' she thought sadly."It's nothing mom, just a few scraps. I am fine now" Nina down played it.Theo on the other hand felt a hint of guilt. Neel inquired about the extent of Nina's injuries and found out that she was in a coma for three days and her condition was deemed critical until the day she woke up. He is feeling bad for abandoning her like that, especially after the clarity given by his mother. 'If it's not Nina who pushed mom down the stairs? Then why did her fa
"Now why do I feel like you truly doesn't care about my wellbeing? What do you want?" Nina asked calmly. Chelsea is taken aback by Nina's reaction. The other woman is calm and composed. Chelsea didn't like it. She wanted Nina to be riled up and cause a scene here, So that Theo would come and see his wife under bad light and rescue Chelsea. "Oh Nina, you are mistaken. I know you must be feeling bitter because Theo chose me instead of you. I know he doesn't like you at all. He often shares how cold his bed feels. But don't worry, we often spend wild nights together. I should have been pregnant with his baby a while ago. But Theo doesn't want to involve our baby in this when he is yet to divorce you. But I have to tell you, he is wild in bed and insatiable. I will be so exhausted the next morning, that he cooks breakfast in bed for me. He is so sweet" Chelsea drew with an intention to make Nina angry. Nina's heart which was already in pain started to bleed at Chelsea's shameless re
The next day, Nina started working in 'The Fragrance '. Ella was so happy to have her there. As the new head of the technical department, it took her some time to learn the basics amidst her trials to come up with a new fragrance. Nina knows what she is doing and she is open to suggestions even from her subordinates. Her down to earth nature earned her a good name in the company. And on top of her own charismatic personality and beauty, the new scents the company launched into the market based on Nina's formulas became a huge hit in the market. 'The Fragrance' company monopolized the Fragrance market almost under just a week's time. What more, the company is receiving so many orders, that they had to increase the production to their full potential. They held another meeting to purchase new machinary to increase their production. They finalized an area where they will be opening a new production unit. Nina was informed about everything, but she gently requested Ella to keep her away f
In a very reputed pub in the town, Theo is seen sitting inside a private cabin accompanied by his two best friends. Jeremiah Shaw and Liam Hemsworth. Jeremiah owns his own law firm while Liam is a celebrity sports person. All three of them are well known figures in Neopolis. "Cheers" Jeremiah is the cheerful person of the group. Liam is the charming one. He can make any woman fall for his charms. Jeremiah looks easy to get along with, while Liam has an edge. But Theo is aloof and unapproachable. Not everyone can stand in front of him and speak without stammering. He has that kind of intimidating edge. Theo finished his drink at one go, which has taken both Jeremiah and Liam by surprise. "Whoow, what the hell man? Take it easy will you?" Jeremiah teased.Liam looked at Theo curiously. "Is it your wife? Did she cause any issues again?" Liam asked. After Theo got married, his wife is causing too many issues to make Theo lose his cool more times than they care to count. Theo pour
Nina is wasted. She could hardly stand on her own. "If you ever dared to even look at my wife the wrong way, you are going to regret it" Theo fumed and pushed the man away. Nina is swaying on her feet unsteadily. Theo walked towards her and lifted her in his arms with a displeased frown. "You, let me go" Nina demanded and pointed her finger which is intended to poke at Theo, but she poked everywhere around him but not him. "You are wasted. How much did you drink?" he muttered with a frown. Nina giggled at his question. "I drank this many" she showed how much by moving both her palms as far as she could. Theo gritted his teeth. "I can see that. May I know why?" he asked sarcastically. Nina giggled again. "We are celebrating her victory" Ella supplied helpfully. Theo's frown deepened. 'Are they talking about me? Is she considering a victory not to contact me for a whole week?' he suspected. "What kind of Victory miss?" Jeremiah asked curiously. Ella looked
The next morning, Nina woke up with a banging hangover. "Ahh.. why did I drink so much?" she mumbled without opening her eyes. She massaged her head slowly. "Here, drink this. It will feel better" Theo's voice drifted into her ears. Nina's eyes flickered open and landed on Theo's imposing figure. She looked at her surroundings and realised that she is in Pearl garden, the Morrison's family home. "What am I doing here?" she doesn't remember how she ended up there. Belated she noticed that she is wearing his clothes. If she would have woken up to the same situation before a few months ago, then she would have been ecstatic. But now, she is feeling as if her old wounds are reopening again. She looked at him coldly. She remembered bits and pieces of what happened the previous night. She masked her emotions and looked at him coldly. "Thank you for helping me last night, Mr. Morrison, I will get out of your hair now" she spoke with detachment. Theo still is not used to
"What do you mean by hiring a cab?" Theo asked with displeasure when Nina refused to come with him and instead decided to hire a cab. She agreed to come with him in front of his mother. After coming outside, she doesn't want to come with him. He understood that she was still upset by his behaviour when she got into an accident. He knows that he made a mistake. He thought she would revert back to her old self sooner. But as the days tick by, she is only going away from him. "It means that I don't want to travel in one car with you. I prefer taking a cab. If you have time today, we can go and finalize our divorce agreement in the Civil affairs bureau. It's useless to drag a dead relationship. We can hide this from mom untill she recovers. No one except my family and mom knows that I am your wife. So it wouldn't be an issue" she spoke coldly. Just then, her cab came and she left him standing infront of his House, reeling with complex emotions. It was true that he initiated the divor
Nina was rushing towards the meeting room to join the meeting. She is late. Ella insisted on coming on time. But Nina got held up in the traffic. Ella is planning to expand 'The Fragrance' and open their own retail outlets instead of supplying to other retailers. They had this proposal on hold for a while now. But this was held back because they couldn't find any prospective investors. Just that morning Ella called Nina and informed her that they found a new investor. But the new investor insisted on meeting Nina before signing the contract. Nina was in such a rush that she didn't see where she was going. Hastily she rounded a corner and bumped into someone. "Ouch" she hissed when something hot spilled on her dress and scaled her stomach. She looked at the person whom she bumped into and noticed that the coffee he was carrying spilled on his hand which is now turning red. "Shit, I am so sorry" she apologized sincerely. She pulled some wet wipes from her bag and started to cle
After Andrew left, Aria felt exhausted emotionally. Her emotions are all over the place. A father she doesn't trust and respect, and a mother who was a shadow while growing up. Everything is exhausting. She is unable to understand where her mother is and why does her father acting so sweetly which is so unlike him. "He definitely has an ulterior motive" Diego muttered angrily. Asher was thinking the same. "What do you think he wants from Aria?" he murmured. Asher heard alot about Andrew. From others and some from Diego. And no one has ever told him that Andrew is sweet or caring. He is selfish, cunning and can go to any lengths for what he wants. So if he came this far to recognize her as his daughter, even though it would make quiet a stir in the society if it was revealed, he still wanted to recognize Aria as his daughter. So that can only mean that he needs something much more than his lost reputation. And Asher is wondering what that might be. "I don't know either. He is
"My daughter had to live in an orphanage because of Susan. If she would have accepted the truth that we are not meant to be, then so many people wouldn't have to suffer. Are you happy? Susan was adamant to stay with me and declare you as my heir. I gave up everything. Still she was not happy. Now I met my daughter after so long, yet you are determined to separate us once again. What have I ever done to you and your mother to deserve such a fate? What has Aria done to deserve everything that she has gone through? Who is the culprit here? You or your mother?" Andrew continued when he noticed Aria's thoughtful expression. Diego was worried that Aria might believe Andrew and misunderstand him. He just got his sister, and he doesn't want to lose her so soon. "Aria, he is lying. Don't believe him" Diego told Aria desperately. His voice begging Aria not to trust Andrew. Andrew was giving Diego a pitiful look. "I am lying? You proved that you are Susan's son. Can't to feel my love for
"Son? You met your sister?" Andrew asked, trying hard not to sneer. Diego glared at Andrew with disdain and distrust. Andrew is the last person whom Diego trusts. To see Andrew coming specifically to visit Aria felt off. Andrew would never do anything without a reason. So Diego's protective instinct to protect Aria was all time high. Aria on the other hand was looking at Andrew with mixed feelings. This is not the first time she met Andrew. But this time, she is meeting him as her father. The thrilled feelings that she thought she might experience is completely absent. She doesn't feel anything while looking at the man. 'How can he cheat Susan with my mom? How many women did he betray? How badly was Susan and my mom got hurt because of him? And how many more women were his victims?' Aria thought sadly. "She is my sister, yes. But stay away from her. I don't know what your game is, but you can leave now. No one here is going to believe your lies here" Diego snapped. "Son? You
The next morning, Diego, Dena, Asher and Aria were seen waiting for the DNA test report eagerly. They just wanted to confirm if Andrew is indeed Aria's father or not. They sent the samples the night before, and they were promised to get the results by next morning. As both Diego and Asher were prominent figures in Neopolis, the doctors were not slacking off in their duties. "Why are you so anxious? I am sure the test result will show that these two are siblings. Their resemblance would be scary if thats not the case" Dena joked, making everyone laugh. "True, I started to notice the resemblance after you mentioned. They indeed share some similar features" Asher agreed with Dena. Aria and Diego chuckled at their analysis. Despite the anxiety, they both are thrilled to see the results. And they didn't had to wait for long. The test results came in an email. "There are here" Asher announced as he opened his email to check. Everyone surrounded him to see the test results. When they
"How do you feel about your brother?" Diego asked Aria softly. His voice filled with hope. Aria doesn't have any reservations about Diego. He is a good son, a good husband, and definitely a good human. But what if he is not her brother? She is afraid to be too hopeful. She couldn't meet her mother again when she was too eager to meet her. Now, she is scared to hope. "Its not like I don't like you Diego. But they are just guessing that you might be my brother. Nothing is proved yet. It might be or might not gmbe true. Let's see what happened after the DNA test results are out. I will definitely be happy to have you as my brother" she replied. Diego grinned. "Dena always seems to think that our features resemble alot. She is so smart. She saw what we couldn't see" Diego said positively. Aria and Asher smiled. On the other hand, Bryan and Stacy looked troubled. Bianca kept mumbling about Aria and her mother, even in her drunken state. "Bryan, i thought she will be deviated if
"Of course I will. You tell me about the Cunnings" Sandro insisted. Bianca gave him a drunken smile with all teeth. It made him feel repulsed. She leaned down to kiss him, but he dodged it like a bullet. Asher and John looked amused by the scene. "Babe, you are drunk. Why don't you sit properly. We don't want you to puke and ruin your beautiful dress, do we?" Sandro told him and pushed her back and away from him. She slumped back in her seat with a pout that looked more or like a pigs snout. "You are right" she mumbled a second later. Sandro sighed with relief. "Now, what were you saying about the Cunnings?" Sandro inquired again. But Bianca is done talking and she is giving him the silent treatment. Sandro looked at Asher helplessly. "I can't kiss her" Sandro whispered, feeling repulsed just by the image of it. Asher was quite. He decided to step in. "Ms. Smith, what is the relation between Aria and the Cunnings?" he demanded. But only silence greete
In City's Rehabilitation center, Dr Sinclair was surprised when he saw Aria barged inside his cabin. She looked anxious with urgency making her eyes look wild. She was followed by Diego Cunnings, who's mother was admitted in the rehab with them. "Mrs. Morrison, Mr. Cunnings" Sinclair greeted them politely. "Do you have her photo?" Aria demanded, coming directly to the point. Sinclair looked puzzled for a second. "My mother, Do you have her picture?" she explained impatiently. Sinclair frowned. Aria's sudden request was unexpected. But he could understand how she must be feeling. So he decided to help her. He didn't remember having solo pictures of Cynthia, but he have some group pictures with other staff members in the hospital. "Yes, give me a moment" he requested and tapped some keys on his laptop to open the folder where he stores all the photos. It took him a while, but he could finally find the pictures where Cynthia was seen standing alongside her colleagues. Aria wa
When Andrew learned about how hus men failed to kill Aria yet again, he was furious. On top of that, now he might have to face enquiries from Cops if the driver reveals anything about his plan. "Where is he now?" Andrew inquired about the driver's whereabouts. "Mr. Cunnings, he was severely injured and is currently admitted in a hospital" one of Andrew's other men shared. Andrew hired the truck using a fake identity. His only concern is the driver who was driving the truck. If the driver opens his mouth and reveals anything, then Andrew will be doomed. "Is it? Let go and visit him once" Andrew suggested. His men escorted him to the hospital in the dead of the night when the chances of being seen by anyone would be less. "Stay outside and keep a watch. I will go inside alone" Andrew said once they reached outside the hospital. His men agreed. Andrew walked in alone and when he entered the driver's room, he pulled out a white packet from inside his pocket. He covered his own
In the Smith residence, Stacy and Bianca looked scared. "Mom, what would happen if they find out that we killed Cynthia?" Bianca asked in a shaky voice. Stacy looked as uncomfortable as Bianca, but she tried to put a strong front. "Bianca, didn't your brother tell you to pretend as if nothing happened? Forget about everything. As long as we let ourselves believe that nothing happened, we will not be scared any more" Stacy advised. Bianca gulped audibly. Its not easy to forget about a murder. Stacy saw through Bianca's turmoil. So she decided to distract Bianca for a while. "Dear, you have been working too hard recently. Why don't you go out with your friends. Go shopping, have a drink and relax" Stacy advised. Bianca is ready to flee from her home. The longer she was staying there, the more she is anxious. She is scared that the cops would find out about the murder and arrest her. She doesn't want to go to jail. "Alright, sounds good" Bianca agreed immediately. She made a
