AARON’s POV

I resisted the urge to punch him right then and there. Instead, I held his gaze, my voice unwavering. "Jake,bring the girl out now.”

“What girl?” He asked with a smug look.

“My maid,you bastard. Where are you keeping her?”

He leaned forward and sighed.”Do you have any proof I took her? I don’t even know you’re speaking about.

“Planting drugs in my house to ruin my reputation just because I got a role you had your eyes on? Is it my fault I am better than you?”

“Just because you got married to a nobody and now you’re suddenly the apple of everybody’s eyes?” He sneered. “You are nothing compared to me Aaron Davis and you know this is a fact.”

“So why are you bitter?” I said,my tone edgy as I stared hard at him.

“Get the fuck out of my property,Davis. You’re wasting my damn time.” He said icily. And then he started calling on his guards to escort us out of the building.

Cole whispered to me,”Come on man,we gotta go. There is no need to waste any more time with this scumbag. W

I swayed gently, taking in the atmosphere and the twinkling lights. Noah appeared beside me, and we shared a comfortable silence for a moment.“Thanks for bringing me out here,” I suddenly said.”It feels so good to be out without a huge crowd,flashing cameras and Aaron always by my side.”He raised a brow.”Aaron by your side? Isn’t he supposed to be?”“Yeah,but you’re forgetting he is the celebrity. And with him always around,I get unnecessary attention.”“True that.

That was the first place I thought of moving to and I hoped Aaron wasn’t going to find us. While we were on the road coming here and our car was stopped,I had thought Aaron had somehow sent his men and caught up with us but it was just some mere thugs who wanted to steal from us. We were lucky enough to get away from them as the police was nearby at that moment.
