CHAPTER 161
ADAM’S POVI hope it's not who I'm thinking! Aria going missing isn't unusual—she has many enemies, mostly because of me. Neal has been right all along; every time something happens to Aria, I’m to blame.Aria has never been safe. She's always been a target. Even after Eva was jailed, my mother has been bitter and silent. I doubt she has abandoned any cruel plans that may have crept into her mind. I'm certain she has something to do with Aria's disappearance.I rush home to confront her. There's no time to waste, and I swear, if she has anything to do with any illegal activities, I'll send her to join her daughter in jail. Every time I try to mend my ties with Aria, they have to mess it up.My mother is in the living room, watching her favorite shows when I grab the remote from the table angrily and shut down the television.“Adam! What has gotten into you?!”My mother springs to her feet from the couch and stares at me furiously.“What has gotten into YOU!”I throw the question back

REGIS’ POVAfter Neal's messages, I immediately called Aria to check on her whereabouts, but her phone went unanswered. It's incredibly unusual for Aria not to respond to our calls.I can't shake the worry that something might be wrong. What if Aria went to Adam? He's been trying his hardest to reconcile with her. I pray Aria isn't hurt or in danger. If anything has happened to her this time, I won't hesitate to take action against whoever is responsible.I'm anxiously waiting for Neal's text to shed some light on the situation when I receive a call from Adam. As soon as I pick up, Adam starts bombarding me with questions. He sounds extremely worried, and his voice trembles slightly. However, he immediately asks about Tanya. This strikes me as odd.“Uncle… Has Tanya contacted you?”“Contacted me? Why would she contact me?”Adam gets straight to the point and tells me that Aria is missing, suspecting Tanya's involvement in her kidnapping. I'm left wondering why Tanya would do such a th

ADAM’S POVI believe Tanya will surely contact my uncle. Women like her, manipulative and cunning, often resort to such tactics. She knows how to exploit vulnerabilities, and she will likely use Aria as bait to lure him to her lair, knowing his protective instincts will compel him to act.Tanya's scheming mind is always a step ahead, calculating every move to ensure she gets what she wants. This makes her incredibly dangerous, and I'm certain she has already devised a plan to trap my uncle using Aria as the perfect pawn.Therefore, I drive straight to my uncle’s house, determined to speak to him directly about Aria and Tanya. I know that together, we can come up with a plan to save her.However, just as I arrive, I see my uncle rushing out of his house, his face pale with urgency. He quickly gets into his car and speeds off alone, the tires screeching as he pulls away.The sight of him driving off so fast fills me with a sense of foreboding. What could have happened to make him leave

REGIS’ POVAs soon as I brief Neal on the next steps and precautionary measures we need to take to ensure Aria's safety, I rush out of my house towards the location I've been instructed to go. I can’t stop thinking about Adam’s findings about Tanya. It's baffling to witness such immaturity, driven by an inability to accept rejection. Dealing with someone so unpredictable and irrational is truly exasperating.What a psycho!I just hope she's not harming Aria. If I find out Aria's been hurt, I swear, I won't hold back.Why can't we just breathe and live peacefully? Another Sophia has to appear and complicate everything!As I speed towards the location, my phone rings—it's Adam. I recall all the times he's risked his life for Aria, getting wounded in the process. I can't risk putting him in danger by answering the call now. Adam is reckless and might mess up the entire operation with his impulsive actions, and I can't afford to put Aria's life at risk. I need to see the situation for myse

ARIA’S POVThis crazy woman has been bragging about her master plan all along, but it only makes her look more like a psycho. She’s been reveling in her twisted scheme, detailing every step with maniacal glee, convinced it showcases her brilliance. To me, it only highlights how deranged she really is.“Instead of them thinking you’ve been kidnapped, they’ll now believe you’re the villain!”What? What is she even talking about? Kidnap? Villain? This is insane. She’s been spouting off about her master plan, throwing around words like "kidnap" and "villain" as if we're in some kind of crime fiction. Her wild eyes and manic grin make her look even more unhinged. My mind races, trying to make sense of her madness. Why is she doing this? What does she want from me?Tanya snickers as she delivers her lines, her eyes gleaming with twisted satisfaction. Then she lets out a screeching laugh, the sound so piercing it feels like it might burst my eardrums. The malevolent joy in her voice chills m

ARIA’S POVAs soon as I hear Regis choose Tanya over me, the words echo in my mind, a wave of disbelief and betrayal washing over me. Before I can even begin to process the gravity of his decision, the rope holding me off the cliff is suddenly cut.I feel a sharp jolt as the tension releases, and I plummet towards the ocean below, my heart pounding in my chest. The wind rushes past me, and all I can think about is the cold, unforgiving water waiting below.How can Regis choose to harm me? How can he choose Tanya to live and me to die? The questions swirl in my mind, intensifying my fear and confusion. I trusted him, believed he would save me. How could he betray me like this?I hurtle through the air, the wind whipping around me, a mixture of fear, disbelief, and desperation consuming my thoughts. The sensation of free-falling into the unknown abyss below fills me with a gut-wrenching dread, every second stretching out into an eternity as I brace for the impact that awaits in abyss.A

ARIA’S POVOn my way to the hospital, I can't stop thinking about Regis. How could he choose Tanya over me? Moreover, he never came back for me. What kind of game is this? Did he actually believe that I would kidnap Tanya and stage everything, trapping him in this twisted plot?Doubts and questions swirl in my mind, and I struggle to understand how everything could have gone so wrong.Those thoughts make my heart grow cold.I am still wondering how Adam reached the place to save me. All these questions are bugging my mind so much. How did he know where to find me? Why was he there? The confusion and uncertainty gnaw at me, adding to the turmoil already brewing within.“How did Adam reach there on time to save me?”I finally ask Neal and all he says is that I should take rest and not to think about all these things for now.“But, tell me, how did you track me?”“Regis informed me.”“What? Regis?”I can't believe my ears when Neal tells me it was Regis who discovered my whereabouts from

ARIA’S POVJust then, I hear Adam’s voice.“I’m fine, Aria… Thanks for asking about me.”I blush, unsure of why, feeling the weight of everyone's eyes on me. Neal remains silent, his expression unreadable, though it seems he isn't pleased either with Adam’s presence or maybe because of some other issue.If Adam hadn’t reached me in time, I might have ended up in the ICU. However, when I opened my eyes and saw him performing artificial respiration, I felt a strange mix of emotions.We hadn’t been this close in a very long time. As he worked to save my life, I couldn’t help but wonder if he felt a certain satisfaction in that moment, a rekindling of something from our past. The intimacy of the situation, despite its urgency, brought back a flood of memories and complicated feelings.At that same time, Regis barges in, looking panicked.“Aria! Oh, thank God you’re alright. I got so scared!”Without giving me a chance to speak, Regis rushes to explain himself. His words tumble out in a mi

ARIA’S POVAfter I shouted at Adam and Regis, even Neal exited the room. I think I must have been too irritated and loud for them to handle, prompting them to leave me alone. But their behavior was too much. I can't believe they would argue like children in a hospital room.I expected more from Regis, at least. His composure and maturity usually set him apart, but today he was just as heated and impulsive as Adam. The scene left me feeling exasperated and disappointed. I needed peace and support, not bickering and drama.As the silence settles around me, I feel a mix of relief and exhaustion. Maybe now I can gather my thoughts and find some clarity amidst the chaos they've left behind. I ask myself where Tanya is. This kind of woman shouldn’t escape, because based on past experience, she'll surely try another stunt.I don't have the energy for all this drama anymore. Tanya's manipulative schemes have put me through enough, and I can’t afford to let her continue wreaking havoc in my li

ARIA’S POVI sigh, relieved that this episode is finally over. However, I have another issue now.“Neal, I don’t want to stay here. Can you take me home?”I ask, my voice weary but determined. Since I am alright now, there’s no use for me to sleep in the hospital when I can enjoy the comfort of my home and be with my family. The sterile environment of the hospital only reminds me of the ordeal I've been through, and I long for the warmth and familiarity of home.“I’ll make the arrangements right away.”“Thanks.”Neal kisses me on the forehead and hugs me tightly, his relief palpable, as he whispers, his voice filled with emotion."I'm so glad you're safe and sound."As we prepare to leave, I feel a sense of calm wash over me, ready to go home and leave this harrowing experience behind.As we exit the hospital and settle into the car, I find it strange that neither Adam nor Regis are around. Their absence feels oddly conspicuous, given the intensity of the events that just unfolded. A
