As usual, Conni Florist was full with customer's orders and Aria was there on her desk, making some flower bouquets according to their orders.

“It's beautiful, thank you, darling.”

"We are waiting for your next order, Mam. Thank you so much.” Conni served their customers who came to pick up their bouquets.

It almost noon, and some orders were still coming in. Most of them will be picked up on the same day.

“Aria?” Conni called the girl who was focused on the flowers she had arranged on the table.

“Yeah?” Aria answered without taking her eyes off the flower in her hand.

“Are you okay if I leave for a while? I want to buy our lunch. There's a small restaurant that just opened and I heard their fried rice is very delicious. You want some?" Conni untied the apron from her waist.

"Okay, be careful..."

Aria wrapped the flower carefully and beautifully, she was very focused so that everything was finished quickly and they could be picked up by their happy customer.

She smiled looking at thes

    “I won’t go home and stay at the hospital with Grandma. The doctor said Grandma was still in a weak condition after the chemo. It is also because of her age, it will take a longer time for her to recover and return home.”As usual in the car, Aria was the one who was talking, and Alex was the one who was responsible for listening and focusing on driving. They had bought some cupcakes for her and dinner for Grandma and were on their way to the hospital.Aria ate her cupcake, trying to make the rest of her day more cheerful. She was with Alex and her cupcakes, she wasn't going to waste this moment.But apparently, she was still thinking about things she didn't want to think about right now. She took a deep breath and dropped her shoulders.“Something's wrong?” Alex asked her. His eyes didn't leave the road.“I didn't think I would get married so soon.” She answered slowly."You don't want to get married?" Alex asked again.Aria turned to look at him, she stared at the side profile of th

    Aria looked at the mirror in front of her and she didn't know whether she should smile happily or sadly when she saw herself.The stylists and make-up artists had just finished polishing her and left her in front of this large mirror to see their final work.Aria could barely recognize herself. The soft makeup that polishes her face is not too thick and looks very natural and flawless. The scars on her forehead and the wound on her cheeks were completely covered.Not only that, it was her dress that impressed her the most. This dress was almost exactly the same as the one she had drawn in her little book. It's a beautiful A-line dress. With beautiful embroidery from diamonds, embedded neatly and with great care. Aria looked at it carefully and realized that all her favorite beautiful flowers were there.She turned slightly left and right. This dress really made her feel like a princess. The sparkling light of the diamonds in the embroidery makes it look even more beautiful and charmin

    Aria held back her tears. They are liars. They never considered her as a family."I don't know, I just used what was given to me." She answered. She hoped they would be satisfied with her answer and leave from here quickly. However, it turned out that this only piqued Jasmine's curiosity."Impossible! Look at all this." Jasmine pointed around her, she whined at her mother who was also amazed at the flower-filled decorations in the bridal room.“Mom! There's no way Dad would want to spend a lot of money on this bum?!" Jasmine didn't even bother to lower her voice.Meanwhile, Susan Wellbert gulped as she became nervous. She glared at Jasmine. There was another person here and it was clear that this young woman was Mr. Grissham’s subordinate. They must not speak carelessly. They also have to maintain their image as the mayor's family who are loving and gentle."And who are you?" Jasmine lifted her chin when she saw Zia."I am Miss Aria's assistant, Zia." She answered shortly."You are he

    The expression on Alexander's face didn't change even though he really wanted to pinch her adorable cheeks. He could see behind her transparent veil. Her face was so sad and resigned to everything that happened around her right now.But when she heard his voice, Alex could see her sparkling eyes. Of course, she looked confused, in disbelief, her lips parted but she didn't say anything more.“Hm.” He nodded to her.Oh, how he knew, she must have lots of questions that of course he was willing to answer.But not now, they will have plenty of time later.How Alex actually blew the trumpet of victory in his mind. He had been thinking hard for the past few weeks, trying to trap the little rabbit in front of him, but it turned out that the trap had been prepared by fate itself.That day, when Kiel told him such a ridiculous question on how to kill him, he realized that Aria was the person he was going to marry. He immediately read all the files that Kiel gave him. And he had to admit that a

    Aria did not expect that this building would be filled with so many people. She thought, even no one would attend this business wedding. Her expectation was, that she came to say vows with the man that supposed to be her husband and be done. The wedding was only a formality of their agreement, and then she could go home, and then they could mind their own business.But the reality was beyond her expectations. The people, this building, and her husband…As now she was more aware of her surroundings, she could see that this building was spacious and magnificent, the ceilings were high and most of the walls were made of glass that curved outwards. Some pillars form like ribs from the bottom to the roof. She felt like she was in a capsized, transparent, giant ship. It’s beautiful. The rustic decoration also caught her eye. So many flowers, she felt like they were in the Blooms Garden.When they picked her up from the hospital, Aria was asleep and she didn’t know where they taking her. She

    Alexander looked at her but didn’t say anything as he studied her face while she was busy munching her cupcakes. Now, he understands how Aria's true feelings about this marriage. He remembered her telling him that she didn’t want to marry this fast and all, but he wouldn't have thought that she would think this marriage would ruin her life.Alex was a human who no longer has sympathy. Since his mother died, Alex's sense of humanity and sympathy was buried along with her body mother to the grave.But now, when he was with Aria, he felt an overwhelming feeling of wanting to protect this fragile girl. He never cared about anyone. But anyone who dares to touch his wife will receive something more painful than death.From the guests' point of view, the newlyweds looked intimate and loving. The guests, apart from Aria’s so-called family, were Alex's men.

    Aria's eyes widened but Alex didn't seem to care to explain any longer because the meaning of his words was obvious.“Aria!” Someone interrupted her thoughts and stopped her steps.Alex's cold gaze fixed on the top five candidates of the most hated human list in his dictionary.Aria looked wary as her not-so-friendly step-sister walked closer, along with Susan and her father.They looked weird. Because they smiled at her.“Hi, Alexander, my name is Jasmine, I'm Aria's older sister, though we're just a year apart…” She giggled.Aria rolled her eyes almost to the back of her head. What is she trying to do now? Didn't she just giggle and act like a cheap woman in front of her husband?“Mr. Grissham.”Alexander's deep voice could be heard and he said it coldly. His grip on Aria's hand tightened but it didn't hurt her a bit.“Excuse me?” Jasmine didn't quite catch that. Or she did. It's just she's so stupid that she didn't realize the other party was clearly upset."My name is Mr. Grissham

    Meanwhile, Aria was laughing and swinging her legs in Alex's arms.“Am I heavy?” She asked him, who walked casually as if he didn’t carry a thing. His strong grip on her waist and under her thighs didn’t hurt her.“No.” He answered. His eyes focused on his way ahead. They started going down the stairs leading to the parking lot."Then, you will carry me forever!" Aria laughed. Her hands wrapped around Alex's neck as a support. Of course, she was very nervous right now. She tried to relax so it wouldn’t turn into an awkward silence. Besides, Aria’s job was being noisy every time he was around her.So, she'd say something she thought was silly or funny and laugh. She’s that weird, maybe Alex thought so, but it seemed that he didn’t care if she talked too much.Make her like him even more.Their scene burned Jasmine's eyes as she looked at it. She had left the hall and saw Aria laughing and hugging the man who was supposed to be her husband.“Ari!” She called again, louder this time. She

    “Himaa!!!” Saoirse screamed in excitement when she saw her beloved pet sitting casually under the stairs.“Himaa!! I miss you, Mommy and Daddy said you could come with us wherever we go now!.” She hugged the big cat's neck tightly.Aria's attention was now diverted to her daughter who was hugging a large, white-striped tiger, that sat lazily on the floor. Saoirse looked so small compared to her pet.Alex found the tiger roaming alone in the forest just behind the mansion when she was only as size as a regular cat. Baby Hima was lost and parted from her family. Turned out that her mother died from a gunshot wound. Alex guessed that they were running from illegal hunters and ended up on his property.He took her home and immediately became the star of their attention. After just hours Alex brought her home, and Aria gave birth to Saoirse.Noah named her Hima, and she became more like a sister to them than a pet. Saoirse often did her makeup and put some cute ribbon on her, and Hima woul

    “Why don’t we go back to the mansion and live there? We can play with Nana and I miss Hima...”A five-year-old girl, with chubby, blushing cheeks, said with a pout while folding her arms across her chest. Her eyes were squinted because of the glare of the hot sun shining on the seawater, her small red lips pouted making her even more adorable. Her older brother, who was five years older than her, pinched her cheeks.“Don’t you like the beach?” He asked his little sis who suddenly sat down beside him after playing sandcastle not far from the sunbed where her big brother was.“Hmp! I like it! But I miss Nana and Hima…” She started to sound like she was about to cry. Her brother tried to comfort him, even though it was the hardest thing for him to do because Noah wasn’t an expressive person, just like his father.“Saoirse, you know Nana is very old and it is impossible for her to travel far.” He said softly while stroking his sister’s long, soft hair, “How about I tell Mom to bring Hima

    When they reached the third floor of the building, the first thing Aria saw was a hallway with purplish lighting that seemed to be dimmed. This floor was much quieter although she could still hear the sound of music from the rooms that lined each side of the hallway.She and Alex entered one of the rooms. Inside, Aria was thankful that the music wasn't deafening. Instead, it was just the soft strains of the instruments that made her quite relieved.The room was bright and quite spacious. Soft velvet sofas surrounded the sides of the room and teak tables were in front of them. From the design, this was clearly for special guests because all the furniture was luxurious and expensive.“Master Grissham! My Lady!”A man with a beautiful woman quickly stood up and bowed to them. Aria rolled her eyes when she saw how messed up the woman’s dress was. She could almost see her nipples behind that dress. It seemed that they just did naughty things before she and Alex came in.Aria looked at Alex

    Alexander wrapped his hands around his wife's waist and gently rubbed her. He sat her down on his lap, facing him, with both of her legs beside his. He licked and sucked her lips, domineering her in this kiss. Telling her how much he wanted her now.Aria, being so little in his arms, felt breathless. She tried to push him away but she was nothing compared to his strength.“Alex…hmmpph!” Aria hit his chest lightly, telling the big, burly man to let go, she couldn’t breathe anymore.When Alex finally parted their lips, he didn’t completely let her go. His lips moved to her chin and neck, kissing her soft skin, repeatedly squeezing her buttocks gently, caressing every inch of her he could reach.“Hh.. Alex… not here…” Aria held back his naughty muscular hand, but her husband’s strength was beyond her control.Alex seemed not to hear her, he remained like a hungry beast. When his hand had reached the inside of her thighs and was stroking what was between them, Aria firmly pushed his hand

    “I thought he was just…sick…” Aria whispered to her husband beside her. They had now arrived at a mental hospital in the city. Aria stared at the man sitting across them with frown eyebrows. He seemed to be sorting and checking imaginary documents in front of him.“Hmm… this is okay, it could be our project for next year…” He muttered seriously, opening the invisible pages in his hands.“This is also good, but it needs improvement. I also need to know how much the budget is…” He continued, still with a serious expression.Giovanni sat like he was working like usual, wearing a patient's uniform and a pair of toy glasses that a nurse had given him. He asked her for a pair of glasses and said he couldn't work without them.Apparently, Giovanni thought the nurse was his personal assistant.“Sir, Madam, he is not communicative. He will continue to be like this until it is his time to sleep,” said a nurse who accompanied them in the visiting room.Aria looks at Giovanni Wellbert, the former

    Aria, Alexander, and Grandma sat at the dining table in the main dining room of the Grissham Mansion. Even though there were only the three of them, but the room was full of warmth. Alex's cold and intimidating aura was defeated by the warmth that Aria brought to the house. He is a man with an intimidating aura, his tall figure, and bulky, tatted body could make anyone scared. But when it comes to his wife, he could only obey her.Like right now. He had to be home in time because Aria had already cooked for dinner.Alexander certainly didn't want to miss out on his wife's cooking.“Here, eat it, I planted it, especially for your herbal medicine.” Grandma took a single, green leaf from a bowl that Aria had noticed since earlier. She was confused earlier because she didn’t cook that one. Aria immediately frowned when she recognized it.“Grandma….” She immediately complained.“It’s been boiled and given a little spice, it won’t be too bitter.”Aria doubted which papaya leaves were not bi

    With his head leaning on the couch, Alexander stared at the high ceiling. In his mind, he saw his mother's sunken face, she looked exhausted and weak. Even though on her body there were no more bruises and wounds like back then, but her weak and sad gaze made him worried. She was sick. And he had to take her away from there.He took a deep breath before continuing, “Those missions, all my work facing the dangerous and tricky situation made me stronger. One day I completed a dangerous mission and the reward was a big deal. After almost seven years I became a slave for my father and tried to get the old Grissham's recognition so that they would treat me and my mother well. I finally gave up. I returned with victory and hoped that my mother and I could go far away from that hell. Starting a new life, a normal one….”But Aria could already guess that what Alex had planned at that time did not go as expected. And she was hardly ready to hear the rest.“I came home after almost three weeks

    This time, Aria was silent and Alexander was the one who spoke. Although sometimes there was a pause for a few seconds, Aria patiently waited for her husband to tell the story of his past and family. She understood that Alexander was not as fluent as she was when telling a story. It's just the way he is, Aria thought. Because Alex was a man with a few words and now tried to tell and explain to her about the wounds that he actually wanted to keep hidden forever.They were still in the VVIP room in the hospital. Aria had changed her clothes, she was wearing a short, peach skirt and a simple oversized shirt with the same color as her white shoes. She liked her outfit today and people wouldn't believe her if she said that Alex was the one who chose it for her.Meanwhile, her husband was wearing his signature black t-shirt and trousers. She sat sideways on Alex's thighs, and his husband's hand kept stroking hers. He looked troubled in the first minutes. He opened his mouth but then closed
