Chapter 81: Scarlett Smith

Aria looked at the scene in front of her with wide eyes. “Uh—I’m s—sorry for intruding,” she stuttered before leaving the room. She let out a deep breath as soon as she was out of the room. “Fuck,” she muttered under her breath before walking away from the conference room. So, that’s the reason why he’s never crossed the line with her, huh? Adriel excitedly waited for Aria in the lounge room, ready to congratulate her on their newfound love. However, when Aria came to the room, she could tell that something was wrong. She immediately rushed to where Aria was. “What happened?” Adriel asked. Aria merely shook her head with a sad smile. Adriel knew that she wasn’t alright, so she captured her in a warm hug. The two of them didn’t speak. Aria, despite not knowing the history between the unknown woman and Cedric, already knew that there was something there—and it feels as if she had already lost, without even having the chance to enter the fight. *** One hour ago “So, are you in

Chapter 82: First Love

Adriel came back to the house with a sad look on her face. “Angel,” Zeth warmly welcomed Adriel as she entered their house. He placed a kiss on her cheeks, but Adriel remained aloof. He immediately detected that something was wrong. “What’s wrong, angel?” he asked, tucking her hair behind her ears. Adriel looked down at the ground and sighed. “It’s not about me,” she said. “It’s about Aria.” “Do you want to talk about it?” he gently asked. “How about Zenon?” she asked. “Don’t worry, angel. He’s already asleep. Come,” he led her to the couch. “Tell me about it,” he said. Adriel leaned back on the couch and released a heavy breath. “It’s Aria. I don’t know how to comfort her.” “Did something happen to her?” “Yeah,” she said. “She was about to confess her feelings today.” “To Cedric? That’s rough,” he muttered under his breath. Adriel sharply glanced at him. “What’d you say?” Zeth scratched the back of his head. “Nothing. Nothing,” he shook her off. She held tightly onto his

Chapter 83: Talk To Me

“Are you alright?” Aria asked Adriel, who was currently fuming in her seat.After Kian said those words, he bolted out of the cafe and left the two ladies alone. He knew that his words would bear some consequences, so he opted to leave before that could happen.“First love?” Adriel muttered under her breath. “He told me that I was his first and only love.”Aria stroked Adriel’s back. “You probably are. Kian never said that Scarlett and Zeth got together. It must have been some kind of young infatuation.”Adriel snapped out of her annoyance. “Sorry,” she looked down on her lap. “I’m acting too hot-headed.” She felt bad that she didn’t even realize that Aria was probably hurting more than her.“I should be the one asking you that,” she guiltily said. “Are you okay?”Aria tried her hardest to smile brightly. “Of course,” she said, although her voice shook. “Why wouldn’t I be?”Aria already had a hunch that something was going on between Cedric and Scarlett. However, hearing it from Kian

Chapter 84: Back in the Game

"No," Aria stubbornly said. "Open the door," she said, trying to get out of the car once more. Cedric sighed. "Aria, please. Just—just let me explain, please. I don't like how awkward we are these days." "There's nothing to explain," Aria muttered under her breath. "It's not like there's something wrong if you have a girlfriend. We're not together anyways," she whispered the last statement, so Cedric wasn't able to hear it. "We're not together," Cedric revealed. "Huh?" Aria lifted her head to look at him, a light of hope sparking in her heart. "We're not together," he repeated. "Scarlett isn't my girlfriend." Aria kept silent. However, she pursed her lips together to hide the smile forming on her face. She hates how she instantly feels happy after hearing that Cedric and Scarlett are really not together. However, she can't help it. She already likes him too much to be able to let go of her feelings. And now, hearing that he is indeed not in a relationship, she feels like s

Chapter 85: Cat Fight

"Adriel," Zeth tugged on her wrist and captured her into a hug. "Let go," Adriel said, trying to break away from his hold. Zeth shook his head and held on. "No, please. Let me explain before anything else. I don't like fighting with you, Adriel," he sniffed. Adriel froze on her spot and glanced at Zeth with wide eyes. "Are you crying?" He looked up from her shoulder, and Adriel saw how teary and red his eyes are. More tears fell from his eyes, making Adriel's heart melt. She softly bit her lip and hugged Zeth back. "Don't cry," she whispered. "I don't like seeing you cry." With Adriel's comforting words, Zeth could only cry harder. "I can't help it, angel. I thought that I hate interacting with new people the most in the entire world, but turns out, I hate fighting with you the most," he cried into her shoulder. Adriel let out a deep breath and placed her hand over his har, stroking it gently to give him comfort. "I know. I know. Me too." The two of them stayed in that pos

Chapter 86: False Accusation

"What is going on here?" Aria glanced at the person just right outside the door. Her breath got caught in the back of her throat when she saw that it was Cedric who came in. "Cedric," Scarlett said in a pitiful voice. Aria snapped her gaze toward Scarlett and frowned with the sudden change of tone in her voice. It seems as if she changed into a completely different person. Aria's eyes widened in surprise when she saw tears brimming in Scarlett's eyes. Cedric worriedly looked at her. He walked up to her and gently held onto her wrist. "What happened? Are you alright?" he asked. Scarlett sniffed before shaking her head. "It hurts," she said. "It feels like my skin is going to fall off." Aria internally scoffed. She was fine moments ago! Why the fuck is she acting like she isn't now? Cedric clicked his tongue and observed her red skin. He then sharply glanced at Aria. "What happened?" he asked. "She—" Aria was about to explain that Scarlett had spilled coffee on her own arm

Chapter 87: New Project

The chosen models were gathered in the conference room waiting for Miss Faustine. They had been chosen for the new project, and although Aria's mood had been down since yesterday, she felt a slight joy when she found out that she has a new modeling project once again. Adriel came into the room and sat down next to Aria. "Do you know what this project is about?" Aria asked. Adriel pursed her lips together and shook her head. "Not yet," she lied. In reality, she already has an idea of what the project is going to be like. She found out that Cedric and Scarlett would be the main leads of the project when she visited Miss Faustine's office. However, she doesn't have the heart to tell Aria about the information. Cedric came into the room, making Aria's face light up. However, her expression dimmed down when Scarlett came after him. She looked at Cedric and waved her hands, but Cedric merely looked at her and ignored her presence. Adriel watched as the situation panned out. She gently

Chapter 88: Lunch?

“You’re really just going to let Scarlett get away with this?” Adriel’s words continuously rang in the back of Aria’s mind. She had thought about telling Cedric that she doesn’t have anything to do with Scarlett’s injury, of course. But she doesn’t know how to ultimately prove her innocence. If she just approaches Cedric and verbally tell him about what had happened, there’s no guarantee that he’s going to believe her. Moreover, it seems like he already believes Scarlett’s story—probably because they have more history with each other. Then yet again, she doesn’t want to stop right here. If she lets herself be intimidated by this situation, then why the hell did she go to such lengths just to tell Cedric about her feelings? She shook her head and stood up from her seat. This can’t be. “I need to talk to him,” she muttered under her breath. She wandered around the office in hopes of finding Cedric. Fortunately for her, Cedric was hanging around one of the conference rooms, and he

Chapter 89: Strawberries

The three of them were already seated at the restaurant. Scarlett opted to sit next to Cedric, so Aria had no other choice but to sit across from him. She was all alone on one side of the table, and she was contemplating whether she should just leave the restaurant. It seems like Scarlett had made it a pact to annoy the shit out of her ever since they arrived at the restaurant. Cedric has been oblivious to this growing tension, though, and it seems like he has no clue about the hostile atmosphere around the table. For starters, she spilled some water on Aria's shirt the second that they sat down at the table. It backfired on her, though, since Cedric helped Aria wipe the wet area. Then, when they started ordering, Scarlett corrected Aria's pronunciation of the word "Boeuf Bourguignon" and proceeded to tattle that she's great at French cuisine and was very fast to learn the French language. In the end, their conversation was filled with nothing but Scarlett's bragging. "Thank go

Chapter 90: Pause

Today marks the start of the Ideal Management Agency’s photoshoot in collaboration with Bellador. The models are all in a studio, getting their hair and make-up done. “I’m so glad that we’re together for this shoot,” Adriel excitedly said. “I heard we also have one set together.” “Yeah, that’s great,” Aria smiled, but in reality, her focus was on something else—or rather, somebody else. It was Scarlett’s and Cedric’s turn to be photographed, and they were accompanied by a cute little boy with an autism spectrum disorder. Bellador wanted to portray various types of families, and normalizing autism was one of their good causes. Cedric and Scarlett smiled widely as they held onto the little boy’s hand. The little boy laughed, showing off a beautiful picture of a family. Aria smiled since they looked so peaceful—so happy. She felt a burst of joy in her heart, but along with that was a dull feeling of pain. They looked really good with each other—like a real family. Ever since they
