Aidan's POV
I would have gone back to the bar I was at last night if only I wasn't this tired and hungry. I remember I ate nothing last night and this morning too, I only ate a few snacks as lunch and the sex with that blonde was something else.
She reminded me of Tessa, she was wild in bed, just like Tessa. She wouldn't let me be. But this morning when she requested money, I remembered her instantly. She was the whore I brought into this same house months ago before Anna and I got married.
I gave her some money and told her never to come back. I was glad I used protection, I wouldn't have brought her in if only I knew she was a slut. I don't like girls like that. Knowing who they are turns me off.
I swing my briefcase tiredly and drag my feet to the door, the moment I came out of the car. I am pretty tired and I want to go to bed after having dinner. I just hope Anna isn't waitin
Aidan's POVMother's scolding bruised my ego and the fact that she is asking me to apologize to Anna. I have no idea how to do that.Thinking about it is making me annoyed and I wish there is an alternative. I know there is not and I just need to do what my mother has requested of me. I made a vow to myself when I was little that I was going to make her happy by doing whatever she wants.That is why I still haven't got her out of the house. She can be stubborn at times. She doesn't want to leave the house and I have decided to let her be if that will make her happy.I take a deep breath and get up. I sat still for a while after she left, thinking about what she said to me. I am not doing all of this because I want to be a replica of my father, I am doing this because this was what Anna signed up for with her mother.They are the ones making me do this. I see no reason
Anna's POV I don't know what to think of Aidan and his behavior last night but I know of the obvious fact that Aidan can never change, no matter how hard he tries. I wanted to see him from a different angle, imagining he is being like this because of what he must have gone through in the past but as much as I tried, I kept seeing his faults in everything happening. I can't believe he is going back on his words about me dating someone. Why will he date other girls and I am not allowed to date a man too? Does he even know what he is saying? Saying my baby is still little and I should wait till she is five years old sounds silly.
Damien's POVI guess this is what it takes to be a family man, I muse to myself as I watch Aidan's company. I am here early to see him briefly but I am surprised to hear that Aidan isn't in yet. Aidan is a punctual person and I wonder why he isn't at work at half past 8 am already.I want to make my presence in New York known to him, which is why I have come to visit him. After I was told of his absence, I came back to the car and sat waiting for him. If he doesn't show up in the next one hour, I will have no choice but to leave and come back some other day.I came to New York two days ago and I plan to go see my father tomorrow. I know I will see him at home tomorrow being Sunday, he doesn't work on Sundays.I don't know i
Aidan's POV"Why didn't you call me? What if he was here to kill me?" I bark at Tristan. I no longer know the essence of having him around me when he isn't doing his work.He was supposed to inform me about Damien's presence in the company. He knew Damien was around but he chose to watch from afar without doing anything.What if Damien had shot me? I will be long dead before the police catch up with him.I am tense about Damien's arrival back in New York. I know he is here now for the worst.He meant what he said to me. I am not scared of facing him man to man but I am damn scared for my family, my mother, and Lily, even Anna. I don't want to lose any of them."I just thought it wasn't necessary since I didn't see him with any weapon", Tristan tells me."You think he was going to put the weapon on the car so the world will know he is
Aidan's POVI bumped into a familiar man at the entrance of the hospital. He apologized calmly with a smile before I could say anything.He walked past me and I keep trying to remember where I know him from until I get to the ward where Anna is. I see Tania in the corridor and she leads me in, taking the package in my hand. She had called to tell me to get food on my way here for Anna and I went to the nearest restaurant to the hospital.When I get into the ward and see the guilty look on Anna's face and how she looked away, I figure out who the man is. I remember the picture Tessa gave me and I realize he is the man Anna kissed In the picture.Why didn't he look like he knows me if he is the one?Could it be that he doesn't know me? If he doesn't know me, then it means he is not aware that Anna is married.I am sure Anna asked him to go before I
Aidan's POVI don't know why I can't hide my emotions.As much as I was trying to hide my irritation when she insisted that I go back to work, I couldn't. I showed her that I was upset and she did not even call me back to apologize.I instructed the maids to let her sleep and take care of my baby before heading back to work. I had the intention of staying with her, till she fall asleep before going to my room to call Chloe to bring me some files home so I can work from home. But since she wants me to go, I will.Tristan gave me information about Evelyn's restaurant. I didn't let him stop from monitoring her movement and what she does. He said the construction has stopped for more than a week now. At first, I was glad because that was how I intended to punish Evelyn but now I am thinking from a different light, as a changed man.I no longer want to be bad, I no longer want to punish
Anna's POVI stand up from the chair facing my mirror after a satisfying makeup. I look beautiful tonight, I know. I haven't been paying attention to making up and getting dressed ever since I got married to Aidan.I began to dress up when Tony came back to me and whenever I go out to meet him, without Aidan knowing. By the time he is back, my make-up is gone and my clothes off.I feel I need to look good now more than ever. I don't need to be scared of Aidan or what he will say.I don't know what Tony will think if I tell him to wait for me in a particular place while I go meet him there. I know it will sound suspicious and silly so I ask him to come to the mansion.
Aidan's POVI pack my things, close the laptop, and put the important files inside the drawer before locking it. When I am done, I pick up the briefcase and go out."Good night, sir", Chloe greets me."Goodnight, Chloe", I say in response before walking to the elevator.Changing is much easier for me than I expected it will be even though some things are quite difficult for me. I have been worried about Anna since noon and I am closing early just to go check up on her.By the time I was home yesterday, she was already asleep again and I asked Tania about her health. Tania says she is fine but I still don't feel ok with it.This morning, when I was coming to work, I went into her bedroom to see her sleeping too. I was worried that she was sleeping too much so I went back to Tania and asked her to dish out her food and wake her up to eat
