"Silas? You are still here? I saw Amber leaving just now. Why did she leave so soon?" he inquired and occupied a chair at the head of the table. Silas was stunned to hear that Amber left. He was so caught up with Chelsea, that he forgot about Amber. They just finished and adjusted their clothes when Francis walked in, much to the surprise of Silas. 'Did Amber saw something or heard anything? I think I should go after her to explain that what she is thinking is not true' Silas was thinking. When Silas was lost in his thoughts, Chelsea replied to her father instead. She understood that Amber must have left by now, so she was not as shocked as Silas. Chelsea is satisfied to see Amber in a pitiful state like this. "Dad, she was not feeling well. So she told me that she is going home to rest" Chelsea lied smoothly. Francis nodded and bought her lies without suspecting anything and got busy with his phone. 'Amber, you dared to mock me saying that I can never be Mrs. Morrison rig
In the Morrison Villa, Nina watched Theo's press conference with Ella, after which the latter left claiming that she needs a shower after a sweaty night. Ella looked seemingly positive when she was leaving. 'I just hope you move on from your past. It will be good for your future ' she thought. When Nina was lost deep in thoughts, a pair of crazy looking eyes were trained on her. Those eyes, which looked as if they are devouring her just by looking at her are disturbing to any normal person. Nina didn't notice it. Just when she turned to walk back inside, she found Theo's car being pulled into the driveway. She beamed with immense joy just by looking at his car. Theo unfolded from his car behind the wheel, with his soft and affectionate gaze trained on his wife. "Theo" Nina grinned and ran into his open arms. He laughed at her antics, but still caught her in his arms effortlessly. She wrapped her arms around his neck and legs around his waist, while one of his arms travelled around
Chelsea forcefully pushed Nina aside and walked inside the villa as if she owns it. Francis followed after her while glaring daggers at Nina. Nina is fuming. She wanted to tell them to get out, but she held back her tongue. In the one year of her marriage with Theo, she suffered a lot because of Chelsea. Taking into consideration that she is Theo's childhood friend and his crush before Theo married her, Nina held her tongue back. Both Chelsea and Francis made themselves comfortable on the couch while giving dirty glances at Nina. Chelsea in particular gave Nina a slow once over. Nina is not dressed to impress anyone. She is dressed in a simple outfit which is comfortable. And she is not wearing any makeup either. Her hair is pulled up in to a messy bun. "You like a maid here. Why don't you go get us something to drink while we wait for Theo here?" Chelsea insulted Nina. Nina is finding it hard to hold her tongue. When she slapped Chelsea the other day, her mind and heart were i
"Get out" Theo snapped at Chelsea. Chelsea is so stunned by Theo's move, that she didn't move, which made Theo furious. He impatiently grabbed her by her elbow and pulled her out of his room and pushed her out without any mercy. "Ahh..." Chelsea stumbled and fell down in the corridor with a loud yelp, which attracted the attention of Nina and Francis who are downstairs near the staircase. Nina is holding the wrist of Francis, stopping him from slapping her. Francis was about to say something when they heard Chelsea's distressed cry. "Chelsea? What happened?" Francis pulled his arm away from Nina's grasp who let it go easily. Francis immediately rushed upstairs and helped his daughter up from the floor. Nina didn't rush upstairs, but she stayed put where she is. She is satisfied to see that Theo pushed Chelsea out of their room, which she deserved. While Francis went to help his daughter, Theo rushed downstairs to check on Nina. He noticed how she was holding Francis who was g
"Nina disrespected you? Is it? Then what about your daughter? Do you think what Chelsea did was right?" Theo questioned coldly. Francis had the decency to look ashamed, but for not too long. But Chelsea on the other hand is not at all bothered about what she did. As she thinks that everything she does is right and she can do anything she wants. "What's so wrong with what I did? I always had feelings for you. I still have. So why is it wrong to pretend as if I am pregnant with your baby? I want to have a part of you with me forever. What's so wrong with it? In what way am I inferior to this woman who is standing beside you?" Chelsea pointed her finger at Nina with anger and Jealousy. Nina was having a hard time with controlling her anger. She is feeling like she should rip Chelsea's eye balls out. "It's wrong and unethical in every sense of the way. I am married and you should consider the feelings of my wife when you do decide to do nasty things like this. I always treated you as
Silas looked at Amber, who is not looking at him. She looked as if she had been crying. While Mr. Rossi looks as if he is ready to break the bones of Silas. 'Something is wrong here. But I have to make Amber trust me. If not, I will not have any future' Silas decided. "Amber, thank God you are fine. When I didn't find you anywhere in the Dankworth mansion, I got worried" Silas spoke smoothly, as if he meant every word he just spoke. That made Amber look at him with a hard glare. "Oh? With how busy you were with f*cking Chelsea, I thought you might have forgotten about me" Amber spoke sarcastically, with hurt and pain lacing her voice. Silas's eyes became wide with surprise. He had a hunch that she might have seen something. He was not expecting her to speak about it outloud in front of her father. He immediately rushed to Amber and tried to hold her hand. But she moved back and away from him. "Don't touch me with the same hands with which you touched her" she snapped. Silas w
In the Davis home, William Davis looked stunned when he got a call from Mr. Rossi, who confirmed that they are breaking off the engagement with Silas. William was stunned to hear that. "What? But Mr. Rossi, we have finalized a wedding date and a venue as well. What happened? Why are you breaking this engagement so suddenly?" William asked in anxiety. William has invested money in a business deal where the Rossi family is also a partner. He was trying to climb the business ladder using the Rossi family which he couldn't do using the Morrison group. So if this engagement was broken, then he will lose a hell lot of money. "You should ask your son that question. You should ask him why he cheated on my daughter with that Dankworth girl. We don't want to do anything with your shameless family" with that said, Mr. Rossi disconnected the call. After the call, William became furious. He threw the coffee cup from which he was drinking coffee from. Barbara was alerted with that nois
"La la la laaaaaaaa....." Everyone in the car winced as Jeremiah tortured them with his off key singing. His voice is high pitched and rang loudly inside their off-roader, making everyone close their ears. Liam slapped Jeremiah behind his head, making the attorney wince. "Hey" Jeremiah complained, while everyone hid their smiles of amusement. Theo was driving and Nina was sitting beside him. In the middle Liam and Ella were seated, and Jeremiah was singing and dancing between the last row and the middle row. "Dude, I don't want to lose my hearing capability with your awful singing. Cut it down will you?" Liam complained. Jeremiah gave him a 'Are you crazy ' look. "Are you saying that my singing is bad?" Jeremiah demanded, and added a huff. "Yes" came four voices in union. That made Jeremiah to make a sour face, while the rest Started to lough at his expense. Liam, Theo and Jeremiah knows the reason behind this last moment trip. As they too had a rough few weeks, they decided
"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
"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
"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. But he didn't pry. He hired a PD and gave him as mu
'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
"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. The former is seen behind the wheel while Aria was seen sitting beside him in a daze. "I might not be the who lived with her under the same roof, but I have seen her while growing up. She is the same Aria, but different. The woman beside Asher is mor
"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.
Aria found herself sitting anxiously behind her desk. It's been more than a few hours since Asher went out on some work. This is the first time she didn't ask him where he was going and the first time since he left without informing where he was going. It's after eight in the evening, and Aria couldn't stop worrying about Asher. She refused to go home without him. Almost everyone left for the day, but she stayed back waiting for Asher. 'What is taking him so long?' she wondered for the nth time. Her finger kept hovering over his number, but retreated again reluctantly. She cares for him, but she doesn't want to show him that she cares. The only way to force him to let her go is pretending not to care. But who would tell her anxious heart to calm down and he will return soon. Just as she was putting her phone away, her mobile rang. She looked at the caller ID and noticed that it is Abel Anderson. "Mr. Anderson" she answered the phone quickly. After Abel's visit after their s
After their argument that morning, things remained tense between Aria and Asher. She didn't speak to him at all, and he is upset with her to talk about anything. He wanted her to tell him what happened and why she was so scared. But she is not trusting him enough to share anything with him, which made him feel upset. After yesterday's event, their photo shoot was posted to that day. And Abel wanted to finish the photo shoot first thing in the morning. As Aria couldn't do anything about the contract and she couldn't think about a way to leave Asher, she followed him to work. But she looked distracted at best. Today she is wearing a red dress. It has drop sleeves that are full with sheer lace fabric, leaving her shoulders and collar bone bare. This dress has lace detailing near the bodice. It hugged her frame till her waist before flaring down and reaching above her knees. Pairing it with red shimmer heels, she looked gorgeous. Her hair is pulled up into a high ponytail, showing off
"I Fu*king Love you" Those words made Aria freeze. Never in her life did she imagine that he would love her and even confess it like this. She hoped that he might one day start liking her more than a friend, and wished how wonderful it would be to be on the receiving end of his love. But to be able to hear those beautiful words come from his mouth like this felt like a dream. She almost turned to tell him that she loves him too. More than he could ever imagine. But Bryan's face that flashed in her mind made her freeze. 'You are mine' his Psychotic words made her fear about Asher's safety more than ever. 'No, i cannot let Bryan find out about this. I cannot let him hurt Ash. I cannot' she thought as fear forced her to stick to her plan. "Ash, you are being emotional. Let's think about this camly. I should go" she insisted. Asher gritted his teeth. She is not making any sense. This is not the Aria he knows. And the woman standing in front of him felt like a stranger. She is
