LARA VIAI couldn't recover from the shock of Cole Aiden throwing the vase against the wall. I couldn't believe he would do that, it's too much! He's so hard to handle, especially when he's angry. I really don't know why he's so angry when he could talk to his employees calmly. In fact, his employees seem pretty nice. He's so lucky to have them."Ohhhh f*ck, Lara!" My eyes widened when I saw the small wound on my arm, but it was enough to make that part bleed. I felt Cole Aiden lift me onto the swivel chair, his hands trembling slightly. I felt a slight stinging sensation on my arm where it was hit by pieces of the broken vase."Get my first aid kit, Rafael!" One of the guys in line, who had apologized earlier if I remember correctly, quickly moved to fetch it. He handed the first aid kit to Cole Aiden, who gave him a slight smile that was met with a scowl. Rafael quickly backed away and returned to his position. Cole Aiden is always so grumpy, it's frustrating."You can all go back n
LARA VIAIn my entire life, I never imagined myself engaging in such adult activities in an office, and it was even worse when we did it on-site, with someone else knowing! You don't know how embarrassing that was! I still can't believe that the man of my dreams is now in front of me, unlike before when he was so close yet unreachable. But now, he's the one approaching me, and our roles seem to have reversed.He's the playful one now, constantly teasing and flirting with me. I never get tired of seeing him every day; in fact, he brightens up my day. I'm just too shy to admit it because I know he'll tease me relentlessly, and he won't stop teasing me.Over the past years, I've learned many lessons, discovered many things, and realized many truths. In recent years, I convinced myself that I had moved on, but why does my heart beat so fast when I see him again? It's true what they say: you can't just stop loving someone you cherished more than life itself. He's the only man I can imagine
"Ohhh god, Cole Aiden, ohhh, you're so good," I whispered, my voice trembling with desire as I held onto his desk tightly. Every touch, every kiss from him sent waves of warmth through my body, igniting a fire of passion within me. I was intoxicated by his affection, and I knew that I could never tire of the way he made me feel special. He cared for me and protected me like no one else ever had.His trust in me was unwavering, evident in the way he had given me access to his wealth without hesitation. The necklace he had bestowed upon me was a testament to his belief in my integrity and trustworthiness. Yet, despite his generosity, I couldn't shake the guilt I felt for exploiting his trust. Perhaps one day, when I had established myself as an architect and earned a substantial income, I could repay him. But for now, I was still at the beginning of my career, and my earnings paled in comparison to his, which amounted to millions in a single day."More than good, Lara Via. Face me," his
LARA VIAI smiled as I looked at the breakfast I prepared for Cole Aiden, unable to contain the small giggle that escaped my lips. I texted him to join me for breakfast, and I really put effort into cooking. I even searched for recipes on Google because I'm really terrible at cooking. It's ironic that while my brothers know how to cook to some extent, I, being the girl, don't.I wasn't sure if it would taste good or not, and I was afraid that it might not be up to Cole Aiden's standards. He seemed to forget about himself amidst his busy schedule at the company. He didn't pay attention to himself; it was all about work, always prioritizing work over health. I've been meaning to talk to him about it for a while now, but whenever I brought it up, he just nodded. I took off the apron tied around my waist and quickly changed into fresh clothes.I became conscious, especially about my appearance whenever I'm with him. You can't help but feel insecure when you're with someone as great as Col
LARA VIAI know Cole Aiden will refuse to keep this a secret, but I also know that he understands my reasons. Knowing that he has nothing to do with it, for now, keeping this secret is crucial to our relationship.I don't want to shock my parents and grandmother, especially Cole Aiden. I don't want them to resent him. As much as possible, I want to clear his name because he hasn't done anything wrong. Yes, he pushed me, and he broke my young heart, but he did it for my own good, and it was worth it. I wouldn't be here pursuing my dream to become an architect if it weren't for him and his sacrifice.I heard the doorbell ring, and I couldn't help but smile; it must be Aiden! I couldn't wipe the smile off my face as I made my way to the door. Oh god, I can't wait to feel his warm embrace; I miss him already. I couldn't help but giggle at the thought; why do I feel so flirtatious and clingy? Oh god, Lara Via, don't act like you miss him so much! He'll tease me for sure, knowing Cole Aiden
LARA VIA"WELCOME TO PARADISE MISS SMITH!" I didn't know how to react at first as I gazed at the breathtaking scenery unfolding before me. As soon as I stepped out of the car, I was greeted by the cool breeze. The place was surrounded by mango trees, coconut trees, and various other foliage. The cool breeze was accompanied by the gentle crashing of waves nearby. It felt so inviting, like I wanted to take off my shoes and run towards the crystal-clear sea. I wanted to dive in and swim.The water was so clear, it was tempting to take a dip. I felt like I wouldn't get tired of walking barefoot and feeling the cool water and fine sand beneath my feet. Add to that the lush greenery of the trees and plants—it was truly refreshing to behold. I can't believe that a place like this actually exists."Wow," there were so many things I wanted to say about this place, but I found myself speechless and amazed. I felt excited to explore this literal paradise! I've been to islands in different countr
LARA VIA"This is one of my favorite places here," I couldn't believe it. I can't believe that this place really exists. I could only ever see this kind of scenery in paintings, and now I'm here. How lucky am I to see this? I still can't believe that they, my friends, put this much effort into it. They are really secretive people. Even my brothers didn't invite me. I can't believe they have such a paradise property here in a secluded area."It's beautiful here," I closed my eyes slightly and savored the cool breeze, feeling my hair dancing in the air. I opened my eyes when I heard Cole Aiden say something."Yeah, it's beautiful," he said that, but I saw him looking at me out of the corner of my eye. Our timing was perfect as the sky turned orange with the setting sun, even the horse seemed to be enjoying the sight as it neighed."So relaxing," I spread my arms wide, welcoming the cool breeze that untied my hair, causing it to billow in the air. I let the sun's warmth touch my face, fe
LARA VIAThe moon was so bright and there were countless stars filling the sky, enough to illuminate the darkness around us. The heat radiating from our bodies contrasted with the cold water, the warmth prevailing over our skin. He held me from behind, his hand resting on my flat stomach. His lips brushed against the skin of my neck as I tilted my head to the left, granting him easier access. He planted kisses along my neck, trailing down to my shoulder.It tickled, and I gripped onto his hand that lay on my stomach. He was giving me so much pleasure, it was hard to resist. I couldn't hold back whenever our skin touched."Hmm, Aiden," I murmured, pressing my hand against his that was caressing my flat stomach. He lightly nibbled on my neck and shoulder, causing a shiver to run down my spine. I couldn't feel the chill of the water; it felt like I was engulfed in flames because of the heat I was experiencing. I opened my eyes to find him still focused on kissing my neck and shoulder, lo
