A few more people had turned toward us and I could still feel his gaze on me. I turned to Aaron, dropping my voice, “Don’t worry. You don’t have to pay for that” I shook my head. “There’s no need-”

“Where do I pay” his hands were already reaching for his pants pocket.

Somehow I managed to keep my gasp of shock down. Suddenly,I regretted showing my discomfort because it didn’t look feel like it was worth that much money at all. “Aaron, seriously”

He turned away from the older man who was staring

    Emma’s POV My phone rang where it sat on the table. Marie’s name flashed on the screen and I wasted no time to pick it up. “You know I was going to call you today, see if you were free for lunch” I closed the documents in front of me. Her soft laughter rang on the phone. “I called you for exactly that. I wanted to have lunch with you so will you come to our usual in an hour?” “Of course, I’ll be there as soon as possible” An hour later the car pulled up into the almost empty parking mini lot of the small restaurant. Although it had excellent food and varieties, it wasn’t the most popular. There weren't many people there who wanted clout so the media was hardly ever present, it made it easier to ,meet with Marie. She was the first person I saw as soon as I walked into the restaurant. She had taken the usual seat by the window. She waved a hand when she saw me, her voice reaching me as I walked towards her, “I thought you were about to call and cancel” she said when I had sat down

    Aaron’s POV When the knock landed on my office door, I knew who it was before I asked to come in. Emma wore a tank top that tightened on her, showing off the curves a part of me ached to palm. Her shorts were short enough so that I could spare a full glance at her thighs. For a split second I could see them wrapped around my waist. “I need to tell you something” she said when she reached when the table, her voice brought me out of my trance. I nodded, “Definitely, whatever you need to” suddenly, the weight of the evening came back especially the question. “I’m listening” She pulled the chair out and sat down, I managed to keep my eyes on her, preventing myself from glancing at the cleavage staring at me. A sigh slipped from her lips and I found myself sitting up. It seemed the situation was serious. “Something happened tonight” I opened my mouth to speak but she wasn’t done. “Nothing to do with Alex. It happened when I left for the bathrooms at the gala” I felt myself sag agains

    Aaron’s question reached me in the wave of relief of Alex’s absence. I looked away for a moment, still unsure why I wasn’t telling him about Isabella and her threat. “It’snothung. He probably had his pride broken due to our presence today” I forced a smile, “Don’t worry about it” He raised his brows but continued to walk on, allowing a smile to linger on his features, “If you say so” The act had begun again for the media that wasn’t done taking pictures. Questions reached us from all sides of the carpet. “Mr. Blake could you tell us where this relationship is leading to?” “Ms. Carter, does this mean your company will now be owned by him?” “Is this relationship an act for the media?” The question sent shock through my veins and I knew Aaron had felt it as well when his steps slowed down a tinge. His hands around my waist tightened slightly.my mouth fell open as I glanced over to the reporter who had asked the question but it was to see his back as he was already leaving. The car

    My eyes widened with both shock and a tingle of fear. I looked around, wondering if this was some sort of prank but we were all alone. “And who exactly are you to tell me this? Isn't Alex all yours now?” She smacked on her teeth, the sound reaching me, “Oh, this message isn't all mine. There are people who know you’re wrong for him and if you don’t want to regret this then you’d better leave him when you can” The fear became worse, my chest tightening in my chest, “What do you mean? Who is threatening me?” “Why would I tell you that. All you need to listen for the first time in your life. Aaron isn’t yours, stop reaching for dreams that are out of your reach” she stepped closer to me, her unnecessarily high heels adding to her height, “If you don’t want everything you’ve ever loved destroyed, including that pathetic dying company of yours” Her words sent a sharp pain down my chest. I managed to push away any tears that had been building, “I think it’s better to face your own

I don’t want to seat at that table either” he glanced over at it. “Doesn’t seem fitting”That was how it went. He paid and we were led to another table almost on the opposite side of the original one. From where we sat, I could see both of them but not as clearly and I managed to breathe freely since he wasn’t looking at me.Underneath the table, my legs began to bounce nervously. I felt a warm hand land on my thighs

    Inside the car, Aaron turned to look at me. His long legs pressed against mine, distracting me a little, “Do you have any questions about tonight? What we have to do?”I shook my head, “I don’t think so” I raised my brows, “Is there anything I should know? Or isn't it just being a picture perfect in front of the world?”He nodded, stretching his trousers so they didn’t crease, “That’s all there is to tonight. The host wants me to make a short speech and if any questions are directed at us then let me do the answering, is that okay?”It didn’t seem like a real question but I answered anyway, “Alright”Just then the car slowed to a stop on the driveway. It was right in front of the red carpet where the media waited in packs. “Let’s do this” Aaron said just as his door opened. “Wait here” he told me and I watched as he went around the car carefully and stopped at my door.He opened it and extended his hand. I took it, smiling at him, it was supposed to be fake but I knew it wasn’t. I lov
