Aden Bruce POV
In the evening I called Mel and she wasn't sounding good. Although she was saying that she was alright but she wasn't.
Mel "Why did you call? Is everything alright?"
Aden "I want to talk to you. Its really urgent."
Mel "Okay then come home I will make dinner for us."
Aden" Okay I will be there soon."
I immediately got up and got ready. I went to meet Dad. Xavier was there too and I didn't say anything to him and entered in the room to see Dad. He was talking with Mom and Jason. He was looking alright.
I was happy seeing him like that. After staying there for sometime I went out and was about to leave when Xavier stopped me.
Xavier "Going to meet your girlfriend? i don't think you will be with her for long!"
I was trying to remain calm. I knew what he was trying to do. But at that moment. I had much more important thing to do. I didn't reply him and went out.
My heart was beating fast as I was
Aden Bruce POVI took her to the hospital and thankfully Xavier wasn't there. I didn't want to spoil my mood. I went in and Jason was there. He was looking at both of us. He then got up and was looking surprised.Jason "So You are the one who have taken his heart away? I never imagined that you two could be in relationship."Jason knew Mel but not that much. He had met her only for once. He didn't like her because of her arrogant attitude. Clearly he never expected His brother who he thought was gay and the arrogant CEO in a serious relationship.He was widening his gaze as we were taking steps near Dad's bed. Mel said hello to him and to Dad. She started talking to Dad when Jason asked.Jason "I still can't figure this out . You too together? How?"I wrapped my arm around his neck and pressed it with a bit of force and started moving outside the room.Aden "Let me tell you everything. I will be back in few minutes Mel."Jason
Aden Bruce POVI noticed the spark of her eyes fading after listening to me. I held her hands. Although she didn't say anything about her feelings.Mel "So You are really gonna be the next CEO of the company?"Aden "Yeah. I have no other choice."Mel "Okay then best of luck. I am getting late. I think I should leave now."Before she got up I held her arm and dragged her near me. She was sitting besides me. She was trying to hide her feelings but I love her and I knew her very well.I kissed her hands and hugged her gently. She wrapped her arms around me.Aden "I will call you my love. And If got free early I will pick you up."She said goodbye and left then. I was still sitting on couch and was thinking about her when I heard Dad clearing his throat.Dad"So when are you gonna propose her for marriage. "Aden "Hopefully soon. But I wanna fix these company issues before that."Dad "It will take ti
Aden Bruce POVI was happy because she was taking me seriously. I also wanted to make her happy..I wanted to make her feel special. I was thinking of arranging a romantic date. But I was so stuck in my office work.I knew I won't get free till Weekend. The next day as I got up,I was smiling looking at the way she was sleeping with me. She was wrapping her arm around my stomach and her leg was on me too. She was placing her head on my heart. She was sleeping like a baby.I was caressing her hair and was admiring her beauty when she started moving. She was awakening and I immediately closed my eyes. I was pretending to be in sleep.But the first thing she did was hilarious. When she realized her posture of sleeping she immediately lifted her leg and moved a bit away. She lifted her head and placed it on the pillow.Maybe she was staring at me. I still didn't react. After sometime she dragged herself near me and Kissed my cheek. She
Aden Bruce POVDad "Do you think she will say Yes?"Aden "I don't know Dad. She is focused on her career but I will convince her."After staying with him for some time I got up and went to the office. As expected it was a hectic day. I was exhausted. I knew I won't be able to go home early so I called Mel and asked her to have dinner without me.I was really late and it was almost 10pm. I went home and I parked my car and was about to enter my home when I noticed a car standing outside Mel's house.I was curious and I started moving towards her home. As I reached near it Someone immediately drove away the car. I noticed the number and immediately opened her house. She had given me another key of her house.I stepped in and was stunned seeing her sleeping on the couch in the living room. It was really cold out there. I was thinking why did she sleep there? Was she waiting for me?I went to her room and after setting the roo

She was out and was infront of her dressing table.I didn't make any eye contact with her. I placed the food on table and went near her. I bow down on my knees infront of her. She was looking at me as if asking what happened!.I held her hands.Aden "I am sorry petal. I didn't know what happened. I lost control on myself. I didn't want to take your advantage or something like that. Please don't misunderstand me. I was just trying to calm you down but I didn't realize that I was crossing my limits."I wanted to say a lot more but she stopped me.Mel "Ssshhh. Don't talk too much. I am not a child.

Aden Bruce POVI was kissing her hands and was behaving like a crazy one. I never imagined that she would say yes. I was expecting that she would take time or would say No. Anything else but I never expected that she would say Yes instantly.After controlling my emotions and calming down my heart beat I sat with her near bonfire. I wrapped us in a comforter and she was placing her head on my shoulder. With a romantic music in the background I was enjoying my every second with love of my life.She hadn't said that she love me but I know she would say one day. I was waiting for that day. I was holding her hand and she was closing her eyes.Aden "Are you feeling tired?"Mel "No. I am enjoying this. Its so peaceful here. No noise nothing disturbing."Aden "Just You and Me alone and away from the city noise. By the way petal What if I had planned something else? what if I was planning something else?"Mel "Shut up.

Aden Bruce POVOn that Evening We got ready and went home. Everyone was waiting for us. They welcomed Mel and after sometime she was like a family member.She was adored by everyone. Jason was teasing me and I wasn't scolding him for that. Mom was happy for me. While having dinner, Mom was trying to start our marriage topic but I knew Mel was feeling uncomfortable on that so I didn't let Mom drag that topic.I was driving carefully while heading back and he was silent.
