CHAPTER 151

ARIA’S POVAfter signing the contract with Tanya’s company, Clark included her in one of his projects with Nathan and me. I really don't understand why Clark keeps bringing people who have issues with me into our projects. However, I do my best to focus all my attention on the work rather than on my personal relationships with them.If Tanya falls head over heels for Adam again, she'll undoubtedly see me as competition, even though I'm no longer part of this love triangle. I can't go around shouting to everyone entering my life that Adam and I are no longer together, nor is there any future possibility of us being together.One thing I've noticed is that Tanya has a penchant for older men, typically those at least ten years her senior. It frustrates me that she might see me as a rival, especially when Regis is merely a good friend and mentor to me; there's nothing romantic between us. Tanya has a clear path, but she needs to use her head. If a man isn’t interested in her, she should b

ARIA’S POVI accompany Regis to the art exhibition with mixed feelings. Regis has been telling me that this exhibition is one of a kind, featuring renowned artists from around the world showcasing their latest creations. The excitement of seeing such incredible art mingles with a bittersweet longing for the dreams I once had.“You’ll love it, Aria. I’m sure.”Yet, I am a bit nervous about meeting Julien. I wonder why am I even getting so worked up. Even if I do meet him, what can even happen? I had heard that he moved back to France years later after I graduated.For an artist like Julien, city life doesn't suit him much; he's always been captivated by Moret-sur-Loing, a quaint village near Paris. I can't wait to see what he's painted this time.The best part is that Julien is Regis' favorite painter. He constantly praises Julien's work, and hearing such wonderful words about my mentor from another mentor fills me with elation. It’s a rare and special feeling, knowing that someone I a

CHAPTER 153

ARIA’S POV“Julien!”The word slips out easily from my mouth, causing others to turn their gaze towards me, curious about how casually I refer to Julien by his first name.“Hi, Aria. Good to see you after so long.”As soon as Julien mentions my name and speaks to me only, everyone around me gasps. His alluring French accent adds to the moment, and I realize how much I've missed hearing it. Julien hasn’t changed at all.He remains as captivating as ever, his presence as magnetic as his art. His charm and elegance are just as I remember, and the way he engages with everyone around him is truly enchanting. It's clear that his charisma extends beyond his paintings, making him a fascinating individual both on and off the canvas.“How do you know each other?”Regis is pleasantly surprised and he questions, while I notice Adam and Tanya eagerly awaiting our response. Their expressions betray a mix of curiosity and anticipation.“I’m happy that you haven’t lost touch on art and glad that you’

His sharp wit and unapologetic nature often catch people off guard, especially in situations like this.Tanya's expression shifts to one of embarrassment as Julien retorts sharply at her. It's clear she's taken aback by his unexpected response, her confidence momentarily shaken. All she was trying to do was impress the Millers, but it ends up backfiring badly and I wonder what she’ll do next.The anger is evident on her face—her eyes narrow, her lips press into a tight line, and her cheeks flush with frustration. She struggles to maintain her composure, but the embarrassment and fury simmer just beneath the surface, making her look even more agitated.Just as Julien is trying to ignore Tanya and talking to Regis and me, we hear her lashing out.“How dare you! Do you even know who I’m? I can buy anything and anyone I want!”There sh

All these men are vying for my attention, eager for even a glance from me, and here he is, turning me down. For whom?!
