"Aiden's POV"

That caretaker swerved towards me, and shock was the least deserving word that could reflect my emotions after recognizing that girl. She fluttered her eyes, trying to say something through them, perhaps wanting me to keep our encounter a secret.

I too don't want to announce this to anyone, as it would be highly humiliating. How am I even supposed to tell others that I helped someone? Moreover, they won't believe me. Yes, she is that person whom I helped for the first and last time.

I mean, it’s Ariana Gray. She is standing here with a high ponytail, holding a water can, and some mud over her chin, making it crystal clear that she works here.

"You?" She whispered, which caused me to come out of the initial shock, but she still had the same expression - terror.

Yeah, it can be easily seen on her face. Mr. Smith excused himself, sidling a little after getting a call.

  • Secretly Married to the CEO   Part-13 His Bizarre Demand

    At that moment, as I waited for Grandpa’s final demand, I knew that no matter the demand, I would accept them. As I have to keep striving to be the leader I aspired to become, and I would never let my past define my future again. This was my chance to rise above my mistakes and prove that I was ready to take on the responsibility and lead the company to a brighter future. Also I needed to show Ryan and his father their true place."But for that, you need to fulfil my condition," Grandpa said after a moment and took a file which was kept on the table. I noticed this earlier too but shrugged my thoughts."Take this file and read it. I clearly mentioned not only my shares but," he halted for a moment then continued, "Also, I am willing to give you an opportunity to enter the hospitality sector."An enticing offer! It was always my ambition to try something different from my predecessors. They started their luck in the technology sector and got immense success, and then I only carried that

    Ariana’s POV"You," I whispered, filled with despair and fear as Mr. Fierce appeared before me. The worst part is that I am completely unprepared to face him or provide any explanation.It's frustrating to see my luck constantly working against me. I wish for just a moment of mercy from fate. Yet, why am I complaining? Deep down, I should have anticipated that some kind of situation like this could arise.But why is he here? Did he follow me for some insignificant reason? What a penny-pincher.

But why is Mr. Smith accompanying him? There's an aura of prosperity beaming from Mr. Smith's face.Isn't Mr. Smith supposed to be picking up Aiden Connell, Grandfather's grandson, who could arrive any moment?

I couldn't decipher what was going on in Mr. Connell's mind, but I felt a sense of delight, deciding to put aside the favor issue and stay focused on the present.Although my perspective toward him had shifted slightly, I couldn't say it had changed entirely.Entering the hall, I intended to call Grandpa, but Mr. Connell stopped me, informing me that Grandpa was on his way. His next words surprised me initially but then triggered a reaction in me."Try acting," he suggested. The thought of acting made me retreat back into my guarded state.Before I could respond, Grandpa approached us. I reminded myself not to forget who Mr. Connell was and how dangerous it could be to mess with him, especially considering he knew my secret.I gratefully thanked Grandpa for stepping in, cherishing him like an angel in my life. However, inwardly, I couldn't help but be cautious about the situation. The encounter with Mr. Connell left me with

    Ariana's POVFeeling a sense of urgency and concern, I quickly disconnected the call with Erin, apologising for the abruptness and assuring her that I was fine. Without giving her a chance to react, I rushed outside to figure out what was happening.Standing at the door, I could hear their indistinct voices, indicating a heated argument was taking place. I hesitated, wondering if it was a good idea to intervene. Mr. Smith was not around, and I doubted Mr. Connell knew about Grandpa's health, or else he wouldn't engage in a conflict with him.Despite my reservations, I felt compelled to at least get an understanding of the situation. I cautiously approached the scene, trying not to draw attention to myself.It was evident that there was tension on Grandpa's face and a sense of aggravation on Mr. Connell's. They were engaged in an argument, but I couldn't discern the exact matter of contention.I wanted to make sure everything was alright and that the situation wasn't escalating into som

I could hear Erin and Olivia whispering his name, while Luke and Andrew were left speechless. I kept staring at him in wonder.What is he doing here? How did he find me? So many different questions were swirling in my mind."Ms. Gray, will you come with me? We need to clear something with each other, so no misconceptions can remain," Mr. Connell said in his usual grim tone.I didn't know how to respond to him. Everything had been going smoothly with my friends, but suddenly, everything seemed uncertain after seeing Mr. Connell here."Mr. Connell, you're here," Erin said excitedly, poking my elbow. I glanced at Olivia and poked her elbow, trying to snap her out of her admiration for him. Her fangirl feelings were surfacing again. I should have discussed all of this with Luke; maybe he would have had

Don't worry, your every secret is safe with me, and I wouldn't blackmail you because I'm not that cheap," he uttered, making me angry."Clearly say why I should agree with your way," I said, not willing to beat around the bush."Because I can help you and promise to protect your honour, and I can provide everything you desire," he said, avoiding my gaze."Do you know something personal?" I asked, closing my eyes tightly as I got some ideas from his words.My doubts are becoming true. How can this be possible that he knows this? In the mansion, except Uncle and Aunt, no one was aware, and I am sure that they are not going to spread this, then how can he know this?He hummed looking away saying, “I got his call.”"My apologies for that. I must have been more careful," I said, trying to hide my embarrassment. "
