Aria’s POV

I sat in my childhood bedroom, the same room I shared with Alina for years. The pink curtains, the twin beds, the small study table. Everything looked the same, but I felt nothing like the little girl who used to live here. I was full of anger. It sat in my chest like a heavy stone.

It had been more than a week since I went to the Vale mansion to switch back with Alina. More than a week since she humiliated me. She stood there with that stupid soft look in her eyes and told me she wa

    Aria's Pov. I left Alina's place, grateful I was there. She really made me feel what having a sister felt like. But the moment I stepped out of their fashion house, the strong winds of reality hit me. I sat behind the wheels and side eyed the files that were kept neatly on the passengers seat. The divorce papers. Edrick really wanted a divorce. I was still in denial. I could not believe it. I thought he was finally getting over Alina and was ready to fix us? He had promised to give us another chance. What changed? Was he just overwhelmed? Or was it another woman. I picked up the papers and went through it again. My lawyer had confirmed the terms favoured me. I will get a house, cars, and also money. But nothing beats being married to Edrick. The power that came with the name and the money I spend from his card in a week was way more than what I will be receiving in a month. Worse of it all, the mockery I will have to endure from the social gatherings. Those fancy asses have alw

    Alina'S POV"Afternoon," Hannah smiled at me. I smiled back. She was busy on her newest bag design. Pearls over leather. The design is to die for."We are running out of those exclusive dresses. People are asking.." She added, her eye still in the bag she was now placing pretty white pearls on. "Oh," I halted. "We will get to production by tomorrow I guess." She gave me a nod. Deep down, I felt she was tired of me, I have been so absent and unproductive these past days, especially since I lost my father. Hannah is a sweet soul and will never complain, but I could feel the frustration. Fuck, I need to get my shit together ASAP!I went upstairs and straight to my favourite designing spot. The balcony. But instead of making new sketches, I worked on other things, ordered materials from our source, chose colours for the exclusive line and more. When I was done, I leaned back and started going through my messages. bUt my mind kept drifting to the meeting today. To their teacher spotti

    Edrick's POVLiana stifled a laugh at how fast I pushed her chair back before the door flew open."Mommy!""Daddy."The little girl ran to Liana while Jaime ran to me for a hug."Sorry for keeping you waiting," the headteacher walked in.Oh, I wish he stayed longer.Behind him, their class teacher also stepped in."We are really sorry for all the inconvenience this has caused you." She apologized mainly to Liana.Then she turned to face the kids."Okay, both of you, come here."They ran to her and she made them hold each other's hands."From today, Jaime, you will be nice to Clover, and always have her back."Jaime gave her a nod."Good, and Clover, you will also be kind to Jaime."Clover also gave a nod in agreement."Great. Now both of you, a friendship hug."They hugged, and just like that, the enmity between them dissolved. Both kids were smiling from chin to chin. I caught Liana's smile from the corner of my eyes. She looked glad; she really just wanted to fight for her daughter.

    Alina's POVI got home quite late.As expected, Clover was asleep and so was Grace.I slouched on the couch and popped a drink, drowning myself, hoping I would forget tonight.“Did he moan Alina mid-kiss?”It was loud and clear, but I can't help but try to convince myself I heard wrong. 'Cause why would he call Alina's name? Why?..After that hot night, my plan was to avoid Edrick for as long as I could. That was what we agreed on that night, right?But my little plan failed only two days later.I went to Clover's school for the meeting with Jaime's parents.Honestly, after finding out that Jaime was Aria's son, I wanted to cancel the meeting. But I had to remind myself that I won't keep being a spineless bitch, especially when it comes to Clover.I came early, dropped Clover in class, and went to the office to wait. I was expecting to see Aria walk through that door; we haven't met since after Dad's funeral. But instead, it was Edrick, striding in with his hands tucked in his pocke

    Edrick's POVShe flinched, almost jumped as she turned to face me. Her eyes darted from one corner of the living room to another, while she avoided my gaze. "Ed... Edrick," she stuttered, ending the call. "What are you doing? Who are you talking to?" I asked. "Oh, it's nothing, no one," she straightened her back. But I was pretty sure I heard the name, "Jason." I know that name, but I cannot remember from where. And what was she talking about blackmailing? Before I could open my mouth to ask all these questions, Aria's face twisted from fear and shock to anger. "Where have you been, Edrick? You ditched me and could not even say a word?" She fumed. Ditched her? I raised a brow. Then it hit me. My eyes widened in realization. Fuck. We were supposed to have dinner together tonight. But it completely slipped my mind. I had completely forgotten. "I'm sorry..." I started. "Where were you? Huh? Why didn't you call?" She fired. Where was I? At Clover Designs, making out with her fr

    Aria's POV. I had this deep red dress made by Clover designs. As I looked at my reflection in the mirror, I knew I had no choice but to make Liana my permanent designer, because what is this perfect fitting. The only person who had ever gotten my dresses so perfect was that self made slut Alina. If she had just calmed down, switched when I asked her to, I would have made her my personal designer. But no. She chose to cross me and she got what she deserved. The thought of her alone ruined my mood. Fuck it Aria. Alina's ashes don't even exist on this earth anymore, why is she ruining my mood when Edrick and I are having our first dinner date in a long time tonight.I sprayed my perfume, put on my tennis bracelet and was about to leave the room when someone clung to the edge of my dress. "mommy!" Jaime called. "Where are you going to?" He asked, still holding my dress. I was about to start explaining when my eyes caught his hands. "Fuck! Jaime!" I yelled. "You ruined my dress.!" T
