Her Stepbrother’s Desire, Her husband’s Obsession Chapter 65
Aria stepped into Hartie's office and immediately knew she was walking onto a stage as she came face to face with her sister.Hartie sat behind her polished mahogany desk, wearing an expression of pure, tragic grief. It was the face she always wore right before driving a knife between her ribs, her eyes glistening with her mouth turned down in delicate misery.Then Aria noticed the door on the adjoining wall.Usually it was sealed, but now the heavy double doors were pulled completely back, opening directly into the executive boardroom. The perks of being the big boss.Inside sat a dozen directors in dark, tailored suits, along with senior executives and legal counsel. At the far end of the long glass table, Valerie stood beside an empty chair, arms crossed, her eyes tracking Aria with sharp, venomous contempt.The stage was set, the audience was seated, and Hartie had made sure her acting was flawless."You summoned me," Aria said, stopping in the center of the office.Hartie bowed

A certain confidence Aria had been lacking for a while radiated around her as she walked into the Rothschild conglomerate the next day.The confidence one tended to have whenever they suddenly added €20 million to their bank account.Yes.Aston had actually paid her.She power walked straight to the elevator, ignoring the people in the reception who looked like they weren't staring, even though the weight of their eyes on her made her almost trip.Her counterpost had blown up wildly, everyone oscillating between wondering who the new man was, and clamoring to see his face, Liam entirely forgotten. In the process, she had also blown up. “All publicity is good publicity”, Liam always said.Now she had garnered a bit of a fan base, disloyal still, but at least for the first time in these wars, they were a bit on her side, which would be useful in her establishing Rishers fully, both home and away.But first, she had a plan to enact.Aston was moving terrifyingly fast with his plan to ov

The kiss didn't last long enough to give her any answers, just long enough to send her mind spiraling and her heart pounding again.When he finally pulled back, the brutal chill was back on his face, putting psychological distance between them like a wall. He didn't say another word. He climbed fully into the Mercedes beside her, pulled the door shut with a solid, heavy thud, and tapped the front glass.The privacy partition rolled up immediately, sealing them off from the driver into thick, suffocating isolation, just like when he had facilitated her escape from the press and they’d made the deal with the Dobres. The engine hummed to life, and the car slid smoothly into the dark city streets.Inside, the silence was stilted, thick, and horribly awkward.Aston had a small first-aid kit cracked open on the leather between them. His movements were smooth and mechanical, his face looking severe like it was carved out of stone. He cleaned the blood from her skin, every dab of antisepti

Searing white-hot pain lanced through Aria's arm as she slapped her other palm against her shoulder, the shoulder where Aston's bullet just grazed.“What in the ever living FUCK are you doing here?”, Aston asked, manic with adrenaline. His eyes were wide enough that the white showed all the way around the irises. The barrel of his gun still smoked, locked in his white-knuckled grip that trembled with sheer fury.He looked like he had just survived a bomb. Technically, he had, but the bomber was currently kneeling on the ground because her husband had shot her.“Why did you shoot?”, Aria asked, wincing in pain as she stood up. It wasn't the worst pain in the world, she’d only fallen because of the shock of being shot at, but bullet wounds still hurt badly.A hand clamped beneath her good arm just as she lifted herself fully. The brown-haired guard hauled her upward, intending to drag her out backward through the threshold.Aria brought her heel down hard on his boot. He grunted, his g

“You are actually insane”, Aria whispered incredulously. “Didn't I say I didn't want to pay for my painting?”“I’m the one paying for your painting,” he whispered back, his breath hot on her ears and sending electricity through her spine. “You know the painting would be in our hands no matter what, right?”, she asked, raising an eyebrow and trying not to be too affected by her husband’s overwhelming aura.He’d silenced a full room of powerful people and basically stolen away all their rights to bid, all without losing his suaveness for a single second. He was what she imagined her grandfather would be like in his early days.Aston gave her a little quirk of his lips. “That’s still our son, and I wouldn't let anyone get even minute bragging rights to the painting of my son when I'm sitting right here, lady Beaumont,” he absently played with her hair. “What kind of father would that make me?” Aria rolled her eyes.“You keep saying 'our.' I’m half convinced you were there when I gave

Lot one. Lot two. Lot three. Lot four, five, all down to Lot ten.They were all treated like counterfeit trash by Aston. He held no regard for the organizers, the spectators and the very painters themselves, reducing every painting in the building to a fakeAria hadn’t known that her little “itch” as he called it would have such consequences. The whole room was silent and somber. She didn't know what the masters who painted these paintings would feel if they knew that their paintings were being reduced to spare change, loose change that her son would use to buy a stray piece of candy he saw on a streetstall in France. The auctioneer looked like he was a ghost, the previous proud, arrogant sheen in his complexion utterly removed.“L-Lot twelve here, we have the Murrelet”, the auctioneer spoke, but he subtly paused, fully expecting Aston to butt in and offer a stupid rebuttal like two euros like he’d done so far. But Aston let him finish.The man sighed, a burst of air that echoed ar

Aria startled at the sudden white flash and immediately swiveled her head to look in the direction it came from. That was a bad idea. There were four men with cameras and flashing lights, running over from the other side of the street. Hartie must have called them in, possibly to have them as

The floor thudded dully with every step Aria took towards the villa library, echoing with a grave silence that threatened to make her crash out. She had always been an arsonist, right from when she was ten and discovered that curtains burned pretty. Arthur had corrected it to no avail, and when

Aria was panicking. Sure she listened raptly to all Asher had to say about his spy mission, sure she hugged him tight and warned him to always call her before he “followed daddy”, sure she had coaxed him to sleep. That didn’t mean she wouldn’t panic. Especially since Aston hadn’t gotten out y

Aria’s lips pressed into a thin line. The sharp sting of her mother’s words could have been paralyzing, if she let it. But she refused. She had spent years clawing herself out of ruin, out of the reputations others tried to suffocate her with. She would not let Camille’s venom touch her tonight.Ha
