The Billionaire's Accidental Bride 100: He accepted it!
When Elanne met her at the top floor, she had a tense smile on her face and Aria couldn't resist the urge to pay her on the back and tell her that it would be okay even though she was tense as well. Aria was just better at hiding hers, unlike Elanne whose own could be seen from her entire demeanour."You need to relax okay. You don't want him finding out you're tense.""Yeah, I know right." She said, her hands a bit shaky."Or should we wait a few more minutes for when you're really settled?" Aria asked her."No, that won't be necessary. We just go in now and whatever the outcome may be, I trust that we will be okay." Elanne shrugged."That's my friend speaking now." Aria squeezed her hands and then knocked at Robert's office twice before pushing the door open.The back of his chair was to them, so they couldn't see his face just yet but they knew he was sitted there."This looks-" Elanne whisper was cut short with the way Robert spun around, now facing them."Good morning sir," they

Aria walked towards the receptionist desk. She planned on telling Elanne that she would be stepping out a bit but when she got there, she saw Queensley standing in the position where Elanne would normally stand and frankly, she almost thought it was her. Her words died in her throat when she found out it wasn't Elanne."Oh hi," Queensley's head jerked towards her direction with something like surprise in her eyes as she fiddled the phone in her hands."Hi, where's Elanne?" "She stepped out a bit and asked me to watch her stand for her..." Queensley explained, unsettled as she looked away. Aria thought there was something off about her that she couldn't quite place. "You want to tell her something?" Queensley stuttered, she was usually articulate and smiley but it seemed like either of those traits had died within her."Yes, but I'll just wait for her.""You look like you're in a hurry, I'll just deliver your message if it's not too personal." Queensley offered."Don't worry, I'm not

As Aria packed her clothes and everything she needed into her box because the time to move to Robert's house was near. They had agreed that on Saturday, he was going to pick her up himself and drive her to his apartment. It was Saturday now, and as she sat crossed legs on the sofa waiting for him, she decided to call Anna. Anna picked up at the second ring."Hellooo," she drawled."How are you doing?"

He was angry. He balled his fist and wanted to release the anger by punching the wall and then he remembered the form of help she wanted, she wanted him to take good care of Bryan and so he took a deep breath and walked into Bryan's room, knowing that she would be happy to know that Bryan was taken good care of.He knocked at door twice, no response.
