Masuk"But I still want to run my own company. I want to prove to them that my company can get back on its feet thanks to my hard work," Aria said firmly. Seeing Aria's serious expression actually made Hans laugh. She was so adorable, he couldn't help but ruffle Aria's hair, which was still damp from washing it earlier. "I'm happy to see you so excited, Aria," Hans chuckled. With a shy smile and a slight blush on her cheeks, Aria said, "This is all thanks to your help." "Okay. I can't wait to see the company return to its former glory. Because then I can quickly marry you." Such straightforward words came out of Hans's mouth. Aria could only widen her eyes in shock. Oh my, Hans. He's always like that when it comes to expressing his unchanging feelings for Aria. But what Aria said next surprised Hans as well. "Maybe it's time for me to open my heart to you," Aria said quietly. Not only Hans, Anne and Tara were also shocked and happy to hear this. Yes. It was indeed time for Aria to cr
"Mrs. Aria!" Jonatan called. But Aria ignored him. Jonatan could understand how Aria felt right now. Even though it was her first day, Aria had already experienced such unpleasant treatment from her own clients. Jonatan didn't know what to do because he basically knew nothing about Mr. Andrew's family's personal matters. However, he had heard that Aria divorced Jayden because she was having an affair with Hans. Whether that was true or not, Jonatan didn't want to interfere. His job was simply to help Aria with her work. Aria quickened her pace as the elevator reached the tenth floor. She headed towards her father's office, which was now her own. Rubbing her tears roughly, Aria stared out the window. Does everyone in this world always act like that? When they're in front of us, they compliment us and smile sweetly, as if they truly like us. But behind our backs, they insult us, curse us, and even judge us without knowing the truth. If so, Aria didn't want to trust anyone anymore. H
Jayden was always curious about what Aria was doing. He even had his assistant spy on her. Crazy! This is absolutely crazy! What have you done to me, Aria? Why is breaking up with you so hard? Aria should be the one feeling that way, not the other way around. Damn it! The kiss—only Elena enjoying it, Jayden was busy thinking about Aria—lasted for quite a while before they pulled away. Elena smiled meaningfully. She stroked Jayden's cheek gently. He only smiled faintly, not taking his blank gaze away from Elena, but he still wore a faint smile. "I hope you're right. Everything that happened was because you were too focused on Alatha Center... not because of Aria," Elena said. Jayden's body immediately tensed. And then he finally realized what a jerk he had been. *** Aria was overcome with nervousness, making her palms sweat. Today was her first day meeting the clients who would help her rebuild her father's company. Even though she had studied business and loved eve
Drrtttt... Drrttt... The phone on Jayden's desk vibrated, drawing his attention to it. Elena's name appeared on the screen. Jayden took a deep breath, trying to calm himself before placing the flat object to his ear. He waved his index finger to signal Roy to leave. For now, the information he had provided was enough. Yes, it was enough to frustrate Jayden, and he wondered why he was so angry. Was he jealous, or was there some other, more difficult-to-define feeling? I didn't know. "What's wrong, Elena?" Jayden asked, staring out his office window. He was still trying to calm his breathing. "Did you forget that we're having a wedding dress fitting today?" Elena asked from the other end. Ah, damn! Jayden had forgotten, and if he told the truth, Elena would be furious. "I couldn't have forgotten," he replied. Jayden had no choice but to lie. "Then I'll go to your office," Elena offered. "No need. Let's just meet at the boutique," Jayden declined. Elena was silent for a moment.
Hans took Aria to tour the house. He was delighted because Aria seemed to love the house she had chosen herself. From the interior to the exterior, Aria loved it. Just as Aria had said before, the house was very comfortable. "Jayden's asking price is quite substantial. So not only are you getting this house, but you're also getting your father's company back. All the property is in your name and unrelated to your father's estate, so Jayden can't take it," Hans said, handing Aria a credit card containing all of her money. The man had been preparing for all this for a long time. He had only been waiting for the right time to give Aria back all her rights, and now was the time. Now they were sitting in the living room after almost thirty minutes of exploring the house. Only a few important rooms were left. Aria would see the rest when she and her family moved in. "Thank you again, Hans." Aria was so happy, she could only say thank you. "Anything for you," Hans said, making them
Upon arriving home, Aria was greeted enthusiastically by Anne and Andrew, who had been waiting for her. Hans had already excused himself without stopping by, saying he had urgent business to attend to. "Hey, where's Hans going? Why didn't he come inside first?" Anne asked, confused, still watching Hans's car leave their driveway. "Yes, Mom, because Hans said he had something very important to do. He wanted to apologize to Mom and Dad for not being able to stop by earlier," Aria said. "I see," Anne said, nodding in understanding. "Where's Juan?" Aria asked, looking around the house. "He's sleeping with Tara," Anne replied. Aria simply nodded slowly. She took over Andrew's wheelchair and pushed it into the living room. "How did your divorce from Jayden go, Aria?" Anne asked impatiently. Seeing Aria's beaming face, Anne and Andrew could guess that their daughter had good news. However, that didn't stop Anne from finding out directly from Aria. "Everything went smoothly..." Aria s
"Nobody," Hans denied, then put his phone in his pocket, as otherwise the woman might snatch it by force. Viona was indeed a bit aggressive when she was curious."From your girlfriend, huh?" Viona guessed excitedly, her characteristic teasing tone."If so, why?" Hans asked back. Unexpectedly, this
Viona followed behind the man. "Something like what?" she asked, teasingly. "Come on, Hans! What kind of thing?" The woman clung to Hans until he finally grew tired of Viona's annoying behavior. Hans turned to look at Viona, who was still grinning. 'Looks like it'll be fun to play a little prank
The guests had arrived, and it was time for the event to begin. Jayden was called onto the stage to officially unveil the design ceremony for the luxury apartment building that will be built in downtown Alatha. Applause and praise poured out for Jayden. Elvis and Jane looked proudly at their son, a
The atmosphere that morning was so beautiful. Accompanied by a cup of warm tea and the blowing wind brings a cool feeling. Elena closed her eyes for a moment to enjoy the view of the small garden behind the house. "You don't want to go home?" Jayden asked after his hands were perfectly wrapped ar
