She couldn't believe that the fool even dared to call and chat her up after everything that happened. Yet, he did because he was that shameless.
There was no conscience in him. He was a complete asshole!
In Anger, Aria threw her phone on her desk and reclined her back into her comfortable chair. She had a lot of work to do that and thinking about that cheat was not going to help her out in any way.
A large pile of files was waiting for her to start working on but Aria was tired. Her mind was weak. She has gone through major heartbreak and still suffered the aftermath effect of a reckless night at the Vouge Bar.
Just then, thoughts of the unknown man she had slept with flooded her mind. She remembered the way his tongue had tasted every portion of her body like she was the sweetest meal ever. Her core tightened, as her wild thoughts started to drive her crazy just like they had done last night when she was still at the mercy of that strange man.
Her phone rang and she jolted out of her sinful thoughts, fearing it might be her boss, she picked it up without checking the caller.
"Hello, Aria?"
Aria's eyes went wide in shock as the brain recognized the voice. A wave of maddening anger boiled from deep within her core as she put a face to the voice.
How dare the bastard call her after everything that happened? Why was he intent on breaking her into pieces?
Not wanting to speak with him, Aria ended the call and tossed the phone back on the desk with a click of her tongue.
He must be insane!
He had been cheating on her throughout their relationship and she had been stupid enough to hope he will change. But he never did! It only got worst and she couldn't take it anymore. The last one was the final stroke, she was done with him!
He was her first love and she loved him unconditionally. She gave him her all and she promised to make him her first and her last.
She never cared about his money. She truly loved him for who he was, but he broke her heart over and over again.
He was from a very rich background but that never showed in his personality. He was caring and very humble, those were the qualities she thought she'd die for.
They had been together since high school and because of his understanding and lovable personally, most girls could jump off a cliff to gain his attention but he had chosen her back then. A simple girl who didn't care about material things. A girl who only wanted to know what true love really felt like.
Having been together for that long, Aria knew he was cheating on her with other girls but this time around he went too far. He slept with her best friend!
Fucking bastard!
She closed her eyes again and tried to ease out her mind from the guy who was supposed to love her like no other, but as she did, a different man came into her mind again.
The unknown man.
She could not understand why her head kept bringing him up. His words, his touches, his kisses, and best of all the lovemaking. It was all so tempting her mind refused to let it go. It became more like a coping mechanism. Each time she got stressed and closed her eyes, he was there, showing her things she never thought she could feel.
"Focus, Aria! Get it out of your head!" She snapped at herself. "Men are nothing but assholes! All of them!"
She forces her mind on the long pile of files on her desk and started sorting them out. She summarised the ones that needed summarising and took note of those that didn't.
She had to find a way to distract her mind from that strange man. If she continued thinking about him, it would become too risky, even dangerous depending on the case. She didn't know anything about him nor was she planning to go back to that bar ever again. That was a mistake too costly to repeat.
As she focuses on her workload, her phone rings again, and checks the caller. It's her ex-fiancé once again.
Aria wished she could strangle him to death! Why was he disturbing her life?
She would just have to tell him off, refusing his calls wouldn't stop him. She pressed the accept key and held the phone to her ear.
"Baby, please do not hang up!" He rushed as fast as he could.
"I am listening, speak!" Aria said in a cold voice.
"Ah, thank you so much for hearing me out. Baby, I am sorry. Please forgive me, I don't know what came over me! Please we can still sort this out. You and I are meant to be!" He begged but Aria only felt hatred for him at this point.
She had been nothing but the best of partner to him and how did he pay her back? He cheated.
"Baby, I know you're angry but I need you Aria. Please, you are everything to me-"
"But you have Sofia..." Aria trailed reminding him of her supposed best friend.
"Aria she is just like the rest. There is nothing special about her. There is no spark. You are my spark, Aria. You are the only thing I want."
There was a time when these words melted her heart and she found herself in his arms again. But not anymore. She wasn't going back to that life.
"Baby, please when do you close from work? I'll come to pick you up," he says.
"I don't need a private taxi, Ethan. I can get a regular cab, thank you, "
Aria answered rejecting his offer.
"Baby, I will be anything you want me to be. Just tell me when you finish work, I will take you to the best restaurant in town and we can talk over dinner, please!"
"Ethan, there is nothing to talk about. Whatever you think we still have, is over. It has been over since the day you decided to sleep with Sofia a few days after proposing to me!" Aria snapped.
"And now you have the guts to call me? Do you think I am stupid or what? Look, if you don't want me to call the police on you, stay away from me. Do not call me and stay out of my life!"
"Aria, you don't mean that. That's not you. You are a very sweet girl." He tried to convince her but Aria's mind was made up.
"You made that sweet girl cruel Ethan, and I hope your reasons were worth it!" Not wanting to hear him anymore, Aria ended the conversation and switched off her phone. Her boss could call bet through the office landline.
Ethan was sick if he thought he could get me back into his filthy life! I'll rather die single than allow such a man close to me anymore. She hadn't even realized her best friend, Sofia was one of his girlfriends.
Ethan was a sick man! He thought he could keep playing her, well, the jokes on him, because he thought wrong!
Ethan was a cheap and malevolent man! Imagine the guts he had to even call her and request for a chance. What a pig!She couldn't even imagine how she missed the signs between Ethan and Sofia. When had they started sleeping with each other?How did she even become friends with such a backstabber?Aria flashed back to their days in high school. Everyone wanted to get close to her because she was dating the hottest guy in school not only hot but handsome and also filthy rich. Her boyfriend was the talk of the school. The most popular and smartest, it was only natural that everyone Wanted to be close to her.Aria had a lot of friends, most of whom only came to her so they could be noticed as well. Aria was living behind the shadows until the school's golden boy showed up and stole her heart.Ethan was a people's person and he enjoyed showing her off to his friends and everyone else around him. He wanted to show the world his gorgeous girlfriend. He di
"Do you want to feel my wet pussy, babe?" Sofia said trying to sound sexy but her voice only came out like the squeaks of a mouse. Ethan chuckled at her question, had she forgotten the contract she signed with him was just a one-night stand and nothing more?Sofia ran her fingers along his shoulders, caressing them gently as her fingers moved in a wavy motion. Ethan quietly turned his gaze at her wondering what she was up to because none of the things she did move his body.He knew clearly she was a friend to Ariana and of course a best friend but since she had been playing all sorts of games to get his attention, he had decided to return the energy by playing along just to teach her a lesson and that lesson was that no woman would take his heart except for Aria. He had played and now she thought he loved her."Baby," she cooed in his ears.Ethan smiled loving the result of the game he was playing. He was at the top and Sofia was at his me
Who could have thought she would be treated like that after the amazing sex and connection she thought they had?Sofia was a crying mess as she remained frozen in her car. Kevin had helped her settle into her car, saying something about his boss not wanting to see her around his premises.As she thought about it, another fit of tears came bubbling out of her. "Ethan why?" She squeaked hitting the steering wheel.She had really thought the breathtaking intimacy they had was the seal she needed. The way he had held her, kissed her. "Ethan!" She screamed as more tears fell down her flushed tears.She did everything she could, yet he threw her away like a used toy. Her heart was hurting. It was hurting so bad she didn't think she would survive. How was she to survive this pain?"Ethan, you brat!" She sobbed. She couldn't believe he was just fooling her. He didn't love her. He only wanted to sleep with her like some cheap slut!
In a fabulous compound occupied with trees and flowers. The size of the compound could be that of a little town if measured. It wasn't the size that made it captivating but the buildings inside and the perfectly cleaned compound.A black luxurious car drove inside the compound through its steel big gate made of gold. Speaking of waging wealth. The car is parked in the garage where other cars are parked.A man in black stepped out to open the passenger's door. The man breathed wealth. First, his black leather shoe that could buy half the compound itself. His clothes could only be compared to a diamond as the amount was too absurd to mention in dollars. The man was irresistible. His charming face could deceive any woman to fall for him and he didn't even have to say a word.He started walking towards the house. His steps spoke of power and status. He was like an outer human creature. He was from another dimension. His conf
"Where are the maids?!" Grandfather asked looking extremely happy. It was like a Christmas day for him."Why is grandpa over rejoicing about the arrival of Calhoun? He's not the only grandson here," Matt whispered to the ears of his brother Noah."He's like a god in this family. I remember the last time I came back from Italy. No one organized a party for me but now when it comes to that bastard everyone treats him like a King. He's not the only one who owns a company." Noah whispered back to his brother, feeling so irritated over the situation."Why do they care so much about him anyway?" Matt asked in a low voice.Rosa, who was the only child of Bianca overheard the brothers whispering and said in a loud voice, "I think, we care so much about him because he works hard for it. He deserves every love and care we give to him. He isn't someone who sits around doing nothing, claiming to have a growing company. He is simply the best, don
As the entire Lawson Family was wondering where their golden boy was and if he was even going to come back kike he had promised, the front doors finally flew open.Calhoun knew exactly how to make an entrance as if he had been waiting behind the door for them to stop talking. His god-like body strode in confidently, a large smirk playing on his handsome face like something was amusing him.Home sweet home!" Calhoun's voice filled the room and like some true god, the whole place went even more silent than his presence had caused. Everyone turned their gaze to him. Some were happy, some were shocked, and some hated the fact that he had come back, to begin with.Why couldn't he just stay wherever he was forever? —they wondered. But they were too late, the golden boy was truly home."Oh, my sweet boy," Grandmother said, jumping to her feet to pull him into her warm embrace. She was so happy tears of joy fell from her face. Sh
Should he wait for her? Or just go on with the rest of the family?Calhoun didn't have to think for too long as the dining doors opened and the bitch he had been searching for waltzed in. "Hello, family!"As his eyes settled on her, his devilish chuckle escaped from his lips, catching her attention."Oh my gosh! If it isn't my favorite nephew, who am I seeing? Calhoun!" She screeched running to where he was. She bend down and placed kisses all over his cheeks. "Calhoun! How nice of you to be here!" "Hey move!" She snapped at Rosa who was sitting closer to Calhoun. Nothing wanting her crazy aunt's wrath, Rosa moved away from the sit, letting her aunt take it.This earned her a glare from her mother but Elsie paid no attention to it. Her mother had been on her neck to get married and she wasn't interested in such things. She completely refused marriage proposals from every man that was bold enough to even try. T
The dining hall went as silent as a graveyard and cold air seeped between the Lawson's family as a ghost had visited them.The news caught everyone by surprise. It was utterly unexpected. Nobody could remark, everyone just stared at each other, waiting for the first to comment on the news Calhoun gave to them.Lily and her husband exchanged looks, deep down they dreaded this day. They had been punishing for any of their sons to get married since Calhoun seemed to hate the mere mention of the word. That would have been their only grace in the eyes of their grandparents but those two boys were stupid. They were too slow and completely irresponsible. Now, Calhoun had gone and made the major move before them.Thomas, his youngest uncle, and his wife were indifferent. They didn't care what Calhoun said or did. They had practically had enough of the boy's pride and ego.Aunt Bianca on the other hand was elated. Her only fear was that Calhoun cou
