When she gets to the apartment, the phone keeps ringing. Fed up with it, she angrily answers.

“Now what the hell do you want!” she asks without looking at the calling number.

“Hey sis…”

“Jeff…” she mumbles, plopping down on the couch.

“I'm just talking to you for two things, the first, to thank you for the financial services you've provided me” he says sarcastically and mockingly. “My girlfriend is deeply grateful that you cared about us. But guess what…”

Arya feels a lump in her throat, sets the phone down in front of her on the coffee table and activates the speakerphone.

“Now what happened?” she asks her brother as she puts her hands on her head in despair.

“My imaginary girlfriend had a miscarriage and I occupy another twenty… stop it already; otherwise you know I'll talk to mom telling her you didn't pay me, and you still owe me.”

“How is it possible that you have such a cold heart, what did I do to you to make you treat me like this?” she inquires in despair.

    “Look, at least we'll have that in common,” Arya comments innocently.Ayden doesn't know what she's referring to, but doesn't take much notice.“And the baby, I mean, will have my genes after all,” she clarifies commenting again, this earns her a stern look from Ayden. “I know, I know, I'll disappear from their lives, but have you ever thought that it really isn't so?”“What do you mean, are you trying to blackmail me?” she asks casually.But Arya is in such a good mood that she doesn't care.“Of course not, you want me to disappear, but really every time you see your son, you'll see me.” she points out, making Ayden look at her curiously.“I hadn't thought of that…”“See, and if he turns out just as smart as me, maybe you'll get to have an Einstein in the house,” she says smiling.Ayden looks at her curiously.“She looks so young, so happy and smiling” he muses.“Then that's good,” he assures her. “Why, besides smart, she's sure to be handsome or beautiful like you.”Arya feels her c

    As the weeks went by, Arya felt an increasingly strong attraction to Ayden. Every so often, she would lie in the bedchamber, thinking that maybe he would fall in love with her. But there was a problem, he would not allow her to get any closer to him than she should.“Tonight, I'm going out to dinner with some coworkers” Arya warns Ayden who gives her a sidelong glance.“Tonight, we have the appointment with the gynecologist. Did you forget?” he asks disdainfully.Arya is stunned for a moment and then pulls out her phone. Ayden is right.“Sorry, I thought it was tomorrow, then no problem I'll postpone dinner,” she assures her and puts the cell phone back in her work bag.Her already bulging belly makes her look tender and motherly.“Did she let you sleep?” asks Ayden when he sees her dark circles under her eyes.“A little, almost in the wee hours of the morning, I fell asleep when I the least thought it was time to get up,” clarifies Arya running her hand over her belly.

    Arya told him about her family, and about her former best friend, whom she hadn't heard from in months. Which made her suspicious that she had been the one who ratted her out to her brother Jeff."And the lord doesn't get mad because you're friends with Mark?" asks Cathy innocently."He doesn't, he knows he's my boss and that's all he needs to know. One day, I'll leave and not come back" she declares sadly."You really won't come back?" asks Cathy."I won't, it's part of the agreement, what's more, I don't even know if I'll be able to meet the baby when it's born," she confesses resignedly at that. She's been thinking about it for a while, but is encouraged to talk it over with Ayden."What if one day she wants another child?" asks Cathy."Well, I don't know, maybe she'll get another surrogate mom," she says with a laugh."Oh... well, in any case I should stay close by in case she offers," she comments without malice, but Arya feels a pang of jealousy.She has not at all liked Cathy i

    Cathy had proven to be a good masseuse, helping Arya with foot pain as well as back pain.In the evenings, when she came home from work, after a shower, she would show her how to do certain pelvic exercises that would help at the time of delivery. However, there was something she didn't like. Every time they left their room for dinner, she noticed how it was that Cathy watched Ayden."Not that he is mine, but I carry his child in my womb, at least that should stop the girl a bit in her mental fantasies about the millionaire," she thinks when she notices how the young redhead sighs in front of her at the table.Ayden behaved with Cathy as he never or very rarely did with Arya. He was friendly and attentive to the flame-haired girl. That inflamed the doctor-in-training, for she saw that she would never have the body that Cathy had, as Cathy took the time to train and exercise, while Arya barely survived the workdays."How did it go today, Arya?" asks Cathy casually

    Arya notices how Ayden's chest rises and falls with every breath he takes. She admires him, and he notices it, but doesn't say anything to her."Okay… I wanted to talk to you about the car," she confesses."What's wrong with it?" he asks, confused."It's getting harder and harder for me to get in and out, it's too tall for me. Look at me." he points comically at her body. "I'm short, I can barely climb it."Ayden laughs a little, but not so much as to offend her."You're perfect, Arya," he says first not realizing what he's said, then resumes his aloof attitude. "That I can easily fix, no problem.""Thank you," she says, then tries to stand up.Ayden walks over to her and offers her a hand, she takes it, and then they both feel electricity travel through their bodies. It is the law of attraction that makes them compatible. Once Arya is on her feet, he immediately lets's go of her."Good night, Ayden," she says with a smile on her lips.

    Ayden, annoyed with Cathy because she has dared to touch him, confronts him. "I don't know what made you think you could touch me, Miss Sullivan, but don't let it happen again," he warns with a certain imposing air that provokes fear in her. "I'm I'm sorry… I thought we were having a good time," she clarifies, feigning shyness. "Having a good talk doesn't mean I'm pretending to, so put those ideas out of your head," she says firmly. "And please don't give unmistakable signals to Arya, I remind her that you are at her service as much as I am. She carries my child in her womb, and therefore we are at her beck and call, do not disturb her," he says this punctuating each word sternly. "All right, Ayden," she replies resignedly. "Mr. Emory, for you," he says, taking distance. "For today you may retire, good night." Sebas, who was patiently waiting for the moment, hands the suitcase to the girl, showing his impatience for her to leave. She d

"We were following him, and he left clues, as if he knew this was going to happen."Arya remembers her brother telling her that he would take care of it, and seeing him lifeless is something she never wanted to happen."Jeff, no!"

    Five days earlier"What's on your mind?" Daniel asks when he sees his friend lost in thought."Mark's mother had a necklace with a ruby. I have no idea what happened to it," Ayden says, frowning, and as soon as the words leave the millionaire's mouth, Daniel feels a chill run down his spine. "Now, more than ever, I suppose Mark has something to do with this.""You're giving him too much credit; he's an idiot," the lawyer says disdainfully, not trying to imagine what he thinks he's imagining. "You know, he can hardly run that hospital. If it weren't for his assistant, it would collapse."Daniel can't pay attention to what's happening; he urgently needs to leave and check if the necklace his wife has is the same one his friend is talking about."Gabriel, it's Daniel, something urgent has come up, can you go for Arya and let her know what's going on?

    Ayden and John take refuge in George's apartment, unable to maintain communication with the outside world."Sir, it's on all the news channels," John comments while continuously flipping through channels."I know, now it will be almost impossible for me to go out. No one can see us," Ayden affirms with an idea forming in his mind. "Besides, the fact that Daniel is missing. We should go look for him.""Not right now, sir, we need to hide," John explains, standing up. "It's best if we don't go back to your house, at least not until it gets dark.""You can stay here as long as you like," George says, taking out a couple of waters and snacks from the fridge. "I live alone, so no one will know you're here."Both John and Ayden exchange glances and accept. After all, they need some rest before venturing out again."Alright, after all, we've hardly slept. A little sleep will do us good," Ayden says, sinking into the sofa."At the end of the hallway, the door on the right is the guest bedroom

    Mark's voice echoed loudly in Arya's ear, and she felt disgusted just hearing it."Is something wrong? You don't seem to want to answer," he inquired, feigning concern."Hello, Mark, it's not that. You caught me at a busy time," she lied, hoping he would hang up."I'm sorry; I just wanted to talk and see how you're doing. I heard about the attack and the blame on Ayden; it's all over the news now," he explained in a tone that almost convinced her. "Turn on the TV; it's on every news channel."Arya felt her heart start pounding in her chest. She felt anxious for Ayden, rushed to the living room, and turned on the television, desperately searching for a news channel. The anchor had a photo of her husband on the screen."I told you; it's all over the news," Mark repeated. "Please, tell my brother to be careful. I'll try to keep track of you, but you know I'm short-staffed and can't be in two places at once. Nevertheless... we have a pending conversation, remember?"Arya was taken by surp

    Arya woke up with her son on her mind, an unhealthy concern gripping her as she rushed to Aryehn's room to check on her little one. She opened the door to find him curled up in the middle of his bed. Cautiously, she approached and settled beside him to give him a hug.Aryehn, sensing her presence, turned and nestled against her side."Mommy, I love you," the half-asleep boy murmured, hugging his mother."I love you too, my beautiful boy," Arya replied, holding him close. Over the years, the fear of not seeing him again had been overwhelming. But now that they were together, the fear of losing him paled in comparison to what she had felt before.While Arya contemplated what her husband might be doing at that moment, she allowed herself to enjoy this precious moment with her son. It wasn't until an hour later that Aryehn woke up fully, and they headed downstairs for breakfast."Good morning, Miss Harley," Tim greeted, emerging from his hiding spot and catching Arya off guard."You start

    After such a shocking confession, Arya, with her heart equally heavy for her husband, hugged and comforted him until he fell asleep in her arms. Feeling him so vulnerable only fueled her irritation towards Mark.She thought about all the times she had been alone with Mark and regretted every moment of it. Deep within her soul, she lamented her stubbornness. Lost in thought, she fell into a deep sleep, unaware when Ayden woke up in the early morning to leave.He watched her in amazement, observing how she clung to the pillow, burying her nose to catch his scent on the fabric. Ayden couldn't quantify the love he felt for her, but he knew he would do anything for their son and Arya.Silently, he left the room, making his way downstairs to his office before exiting through the secret door into the hallway that led to the bunker."Hello, John," he greeted his bodyguard when he saw him leaning against the wall, finishing a cigarette. "Do you know anything about our escape?"John took out on

He feared for her and their son."Sir, everything is ready for us to leave whenever you order," John reported over the phone."We'll leave before four in the morning; we need to be in her building before she wakes up and have everything set up," Ayden declared, following the plan."Understood. I'll make some final arrangements for our fake flight tonight," John said before saying goodbye and hanging up.Ayden Emory was worried about the safety of his now wife and son. He knew Arya didn't adhere to the recommended security measures because she didn't care much about her own safety."Sir, everything is ready for tonight," John informed over the phone. "The van is loaded with everything we need to install the cameras in Mark's building.""Great, we'll leave in the early morning.

    The morning was very cold. Aryehn was still asleep, so they brought the baby monitor to the living room to hear in case he woke up.Gabriel was at the front door early in the morning, waiting for someone to open it. Henry, in charge of house security, now had to report the arrival of visitors to Arya first, to see if she authorized them or not."Miss Arya, Mr. Specter is already at the entrance. Should I let him in?" he asked with great formality as she descended the stairs."Yes, please, have him come to the kitchen, Henry," she replied, walking directly to the coffee maker to prepare coffee. Ayden joined her a few minutes later, just as Gabriel arrived."Good morning, sir, Mrs. Emory," the lawyer greeted with formality, shaking hands with the millionaire."Good morning, Gabriel, come in," Ayden indicated the chair in front of him in the dining room."Would you like coffee?"
