Aiden's POV
"I know what you are thinking, Mr. Connell," Olivia asked, seeing my face.
I attempted to say that she can take some break. "Ariana is the daughter of Mr. Xavier. She found out that fact when for the first time you took her to your residence."
I couldn't believe that indeed she is my first love and now I understand that's why I always felt attracted to her. But then why did she hide from me, I told her everything but then too?
"She wanted you to profess your love to her before telling you everything as she wanted to know
Ariana's POVMy birthday will end in a few hours but still, no one has wished me. Further, I thought at least today Luke and Erin will call me but no, they didn't. It seems their anger is above everything and about Andrew, I don't know what to say.And yes, Olivia too disappointed me but I can understand her. Well, above all, I can't understand Aiden. Why did he become a bastard?I was busy with my thought process but it got broken by Aiden's words. "We reached."I sighed and disembarked without saying anything. Aiden parked the car and
Ariana's POV"Thank you for that day, Ariana," Aiden said with a broad smile playing over his lips."What do you mean?" I asked with amazement as I never imagined that he would find it on his own. Further, I wanted to surprise him."Why did you never tell me that you are my first love? Don't you know how much I wanted to thank you?" Aiden sadly asked."I am sorry but Aiden, I wanted you to love me," I said with some tears."I know I became sel
Ariana's POVAfter talking with my friends, I immediately hugged Aiden. He warped his hand around me and fondled my hair saying, "No need to say thanks.""I know but Aiden, I just want to say that you are the best thing that happened to me," I said with glistening eyes.Aiden broke the hug and kissed my eyes saying, "Same here but Ariana, don't you think we should eat now? Or else I fear we would keep standing like this also darling, I have to take you somewhere.""Where?" I asked, curling my lips in a smile.“Won't you tell me?” I added.
Ariana's POVI opened my eyes and found Aiden sitting beside me, holding my hand. I attempted to sit but my head felt heavy, so I again closed my eyes wondering what was happening to me? Also, my entire body feels broken.Where am I? I was near my car then why am I lying down here? And why is Aiden with me? Isn't he supposed to be in the office? He told me that he has some work that's why he wasn't able to make it to the gathering."Aiden," I used all my energy to take his name."I will call the doctor," Aiden hurriedly said and pre
Ariana's POVLife is so unpredictable. Till 3 years ago, I couldn't even imagine smiling but now I know no one is happier than me.Well today is our 3rd marriage anniversary and we are going somewhere in his chopper and as usual, this arrogant man didn't tell me anything. Even after 3 years of our marriage, he keeps giving me surprises as he knows I get irritated.This time I also have an amazing surprise though I am doubtful of his reaction."Happy anniversary," Aiden whispered.
Somewhere in New YorkI found myself standing beside a mirror, gazing at my reflection. Tears streamed down my face as I took in the sight. I wore a simple makeup on my face and a white gown that swept the floor. On any other day, I would have been joyous, praying for a bright future. But today, it only caused aching in my heart.“Darling, are you still not ready?” My aunt’s voice pierced through my sorrow. “It’s already 7:00 pm, and the groom is growing impatient. Hurry up! And what kind of makeup is that? It doesn’t suit you. Today is your wedding day; you should look beautiful,” she said, causing more tears to flow.“Aunt, I don’t want to marry him. You know me well; I have no interest in this business arrangement,” I tried to explain, but it fell on deaf ears. Instead of listening to me, she applied more makeup, but my tears only ruined her efforts.“Don’t forget that after your parents’ death, your uncle brought you here and provided you with a decent life,” Aunt retorted angrily,
Part 1:Ariana's POVI remember leaving the house and trudging through the forest, my body trembling with every rustle of a leaf that fell on me, my imagination turning it into a slithering snake. I used to get startled by bushes brushing against my skin, mistaking them for lurking animals. Eventually, I made it to the highway.Sighing with relief and wiping the sweat from my brow, I adjusted my heavy backpack and smiled, extending my hands to the sky. I knew this new journey would be difficult, but I was prepared to fight because it would be worth it. I walked alone, praying for a passing car or truck to give me a ride away from this area, but it seemed that luck was not on my side.Once again, my smile faded as a comma interrupted my thoughts, and fear gripped my heart. A group of men appeared on the road, and as soon as they spotted me, they exchanged glances on their mobile phones before scanning me from head to toe, nodding in agreement. They dismounted their motorcycles and start
Ariana's POVInhale, exhale.I tried to calm myself, repeatedly reminding myself to do so since I opened my eyes and found myself in a bizarre environment. I looked around, hoping to find something helpful, but nothing stood out. Frustrated, I sat down, and the first thing I did was check my dress. Relief washed over me as I realized my dignity was intact. It wasn't solely based on the observation of my clothes, but rather the absence of physical pain in the lower part of my body.Thank you.Expressing gratitude to God, I held my head, which felt heavy as if it had been burdened with thousands of kilograms. I squinted my eyes, attributing this headache to something trivial compared to the next question that demanded an answer—where am I?Attempting to find the answer, I mustered the strength to get out of bed and approach the door. But before I could take a step, I heard the sound of someone's footsteps. Agitation and fear overwhelmed me, as all sorts of negative thoughts, which I had

Aiden's POVI and Ariana reached our office. Without saying anything to me, she went to her desk and sat there fuming and muttering.She must be sad thinking that no one remembers her birthday especially me but who would tell her that I have planned so many things for her. First I would take her to the resort where I am thinking of telling her about my feelings and then I will take her to the skyscraper which I purchased for her.But before this, I have to do two things. First I have to attend a meeting and then I have to call Mr. Potts. Since Ariana and he fought, I am trying to make him understand Ariana's situation.
Ariana's POVAfter waking up, I stood and went towards the lobby to get some air. Today I am feeling so refreshed after spending a good time with Aiden. A shy smile came over my lips recalling the last night.But where did he go? I asked him to stay with me until I didn't wake up. Perhaps he got some urgent work. I surely got disappointed but I can understand him. He must have got some work.Thinking that I sighed and moved towards the lobby. My eyes shone seeing Aiden who was standing on the lawn. It seemed he was busy with a call, I was about to go inside but stopped when I saw his face turning red.
Aiden's POVAriana sent me from the cafe. For the first time in my life, I get interested in knowing what is going on in Adam's life.Yes, I care about him now. As I decipher he has nothing to do with his family, he always wanted my well-being. So, I thought I would begin fresh with him.However, I always felt like he was hiding something from me. I couldn't directly ask him anything, so I got interested in Eva's words.But no! Ariana didn't let me stay there. I sighed and frustratedly moved from there.
