Aria’s P.o.v

Rachel’s response made me suspicious of why she was present and what exactly it was that Vaughn was all about that time around.

“I know a lot is going on and I don’t think it will be of any importance for me to know anyway.” I tried to pretend to Rachel so she wouldn’t know that I was aware of the odd things that went on in the Slade family. I didn’t think she was any important to know much anyway.

“I’m not angry at you. You made it easier for me to give in to this decision. You can see that Liam is always going to be an asshole now too, right?” I smirked because I knew that the both of them were no longer together and I had not seen them talk to each other since they came.

I had not seen Rachel as calm as she was. It felt absurd that she wasn’t showing her shenanigans like she does. I knew there was something odd going on but I didn’t want to make it obvious to them. I decided I was going to find out what it must be that brought them all together.

  • SUBSTITUTE BRIDE: My Cold Billionaire Husband.   Chapter 141

    "ARIA'S POV""It's fine," I signaled to Vaughn who looked at me shockingly after what I had just said.This happened because of Sophia and I figured i should be the one answering the questions."I volunteered to marry Vaughn after my sister ran away days before their wedding day," I said."Did Mr Slade pressure you in any way or forcefully marry you against your will?" Chris asked."No, it was my decision, and getting married to him was the best decision of my life," I replied."Over to you Mr Slade, what do you have to say about these allegations?" Chris asked, looking at Vaughn."I am getting quite used to people spreading fake news about me. But as my wife just said, we are happily married, and even though our story didn't start like every other typical love story, it all worked out," Vaughn answered."Good to hear from you both; it's time to take a few calls from some of the people at home who have some questions to ask," Chris stated.He then read the calling line aloud and after

  • SUBSTITUTE BRIDE: My Cold Billionaire Husband.   Chapter 140

    "VAUGHN'S POV"There was no way I was going to just lose billions because of this scandal.It seemed to me like this was a well-calculated move from whoever had planned this. The person must have known about the project, and it got me doubting if this person was really Liam.This project with Mr Zack would make my company number one and put me ahead of all of our competitors.As Aria pulled away from the hug, she looked right at me and asked what I had in mind.The situation was not only tricky, it also happened so fast."I have a friend who works at one of the biggest press companies; I was thinking we should grant an interview and talk honestly about our love life," I said."But isn't that going to make it all more complicated? We would have to state the fact that you had to marry me after Sophia ran away," Aria asked.Her concerns were valid but that was the only chance we had at the moment.Organizing another press conference was an option, but Liam still had not been caught, and

  • SUBSTITUTE BRIDE: My Cold Billionaire Husband.   Chapter 139

    "ARIA'S POV"It had been a while now since Vaughn excused himself from the dining table. His food was starting to get cold, and it made me wonder where he went.After a few more minutes of waiting for him to return, I stood up and decided to go look for him.I then walked into the living room and was so shocked by what next I saw: my face and my sister's were on the television right next to Vaughn's face."What is going on here, Vaughn?" I asked, walking closer to him.By the look on his face, he was also clearly shocked by what was going on."It's nothing," He replied, picking up the remote to the television and switching it off."This isn't nothing, I clearly saw what was written on it," I said.It was true that I was a replacement and had to marry Vaughn but that decision had turned out to be the best one of my entire life."I'm so sorry I dragged you into this life, Aria," Vaughn said, gazing into my eyes. "Someone who is out to destroy me and my company must be behind this.""Wha

    "VAUGHN'S POV""Aria is really going to be upset," I said, while going through the results of the interview.Sophia came second and it was a really close one.I was also really hoping she was going to make it and seeing that she didn't made me a bit sad."She will get plenty more opportunities," I said to myself.A woman named Sarah came first in the interview and from what I remembered from seeing her earlier, she was really good.Her qualifications exceeded the requirements of the role and she answered all of the questions she was asked by the recruiters with confidence.She was just exactly who we needed for the role."Well deserved, Sarah," I muttered."Sophia will get over it," I added, closing the envelope and continuing with my work.After working about five hours with no break, I finished up with all my work and decided it was time to go home.I stood up from the chair and put on my suit, which I had earlier removed, but right after I buttoned up, I heard a knock on the door t

    "AUTHOR'S POV"Aria slept in the guest room that night as she was just too angry at Vaughn, too angry to look into his eyes.She had been trying to keep it in but was just tired of Vaughn letting his mother disrespect her.He hated that he was always there and only watched in silence.All she wanted was to be respected by Vaughn's family and also to be accepted.The next morning, Aria walked out of the guest room after making sure Vaughn had left for work but ran into Sophia who was also walking out of her room."Aria," Sophia muttered, walking closer to her.She noticed her eyes was a bit swollen and it was as if she had been crying all night."Are you okay?" Sophia asked, staring into her eyes."Yes, i just had a little fight with Vaughn yesterday evening and had to sleep in the guest room," Aria replied.Sophia didn't know if she should ask her sister about the cause of the fight and just pulled her in for a hug."I am here it you want to talk about it," Sophia said, but Aria assur

  • SUBSTITUTE BRIDE: My Cold Billionaire Husband.   Chapter 136

    "VAUGHN'S POV"I understood perfectly well that Aria loves her sister and only meant well but to me, it was all just going too fast.I also felt like Aria only talks me once she makes the decision and I hated it.Sophia had only being here for just a month and now she was about to apply for a job in my company.That meant I would have to work with her and see her every single day.Aria had been so happy with her at the house and since keeping her happy was my only priority, I decided to go with it even though I was skeptical about it.I liked to work with strangers since it was easier but decided this might be a chance to try working with family."The interview is in the next two days, tell her to get ready," I said. "I am going to forward a list of requirements she needs to meet to get the position to your phone now.""Thank you babe, I am sure she would be even more excited than she was earlier when I told her," She replied, rushing out of the room.As I watched the door close, I su
