Aria's POV

The atmosphere in the car became strange and tense after Aiden's words.

I noticed the subtle smile at the corner of his lips, knowing I had fallen into his trap. During the twenty-minute drive home, I pretended to sleep while he pretended not to see through my little act.

I could feel his gaze occasionally sweeping over from the driver's seat, wrapping around me like tentacles. The temperature inside the car seemed higher than usual - perhaps just my imagination, but enough to make my heart race.

When the car finally pulled into the garage, Aiden didn't immediately wake me. I heard him unbuckle his seatbelt, followed by the rustling of fabric. Through my slightly opened eyes, I saw him leisurely remove his jacket and unbutton the top two buttons of his shirt, his Adam's apple sliding in the dim light.

Damn, he was doing this on purpose.

Soon, he came to the passenger door and unbuckled my seatbelt. I felt his strong arms slip unde

  • Too Late, Mr. White! I'm Married To Your Rival Now   Chapter 219 Trouble at work?

    Aria's POVMy thoughts were a complete mess as I sat on the bed. First, I'd had another woman between Aiden and me, and now that we'd just confessed our feelings for each other, suddenly this "dream girl" appears out of nowhere? Talk about history repeating itself.Once bitten, twice shy. I felt myself slipping back into that painful, insecure place I'd been before.But I wasn't the same naive, brave girl anymore. If Aiden truly had feelings for this dream girl, I'd divorce him immediately and let them be together.After all, our marriage wasn't exactly conventional from the start.Yeah, divorce. That's the solution. I took a deep breath, trying to convince myself I was fine with this possibility.The bathroom door suddenly swung open, and Aiden walked out, freshly showered. My heart clenched with both heartache and guilt. I instinctively turned away, then immediately regretted it.Aiden was too perceptive. Turning away would only mak

  • Too Late, Mr. White! I'm Married To Your Rival Now   Chapter 218 Want me to help with your tie?

    Aria's POVI blinked, jogging over to where Aiden stood.My eyes fell to his collar before traveling downward. "Want me to help with your tie?"Aiden arched an eyebrow, lifting the hand that held his tie. "Thank you, Mrs. Carter," he said with that smile that still made my stomach flutter.I felt my cheeks warm as I took the tie from his hand.I'd always known Aiden was tall, but standing directly in front of him like this really drove the point home. At 5'6", I wasn't short by any means, but I still had to rise on my tiptoes to properly adjust his tie around his neck.This was the second time I'd done this for him. The first time, my nerves had gotten the better of me—my hands had trembled so much that the knot ended up loose and crooked. I'd wanted to fix it, but the warmth of his cedar cologne had made my fingers uncooperative, and I'd given up in embarrassment.Now, though we were much more comfortable with each other, I sti

  • Too Late, Mr. White! I'm Married To Your Rival Now   Chapter 217 All done with work?

    Aria's POVI woke up completely exhausted after our intense lovemaking.The bedroom was dimly lit when I opened my eyes, and Aiden was no longer beside me.I reached out to touch his side of the bed—still warm.He must have gotten up just moments ago.I smiled to myself, sat up slowly, and took a moment to gather my strength before grabbing my phone and heading downstairs.The housekeeper had prepared afternoon tea and smiled when she saw me coming down the stairs. "Would you like something to eat, Mrs. Carter?"It was already past three, and the pasta we'd eaten more than two hours ago had long been digested."Yes, please," I nodded."I'll serve you right away, ma'am.""No rush," I assured her.I'd barely taken a sip of water when Nanny returned with a slice of cake and a cup of tea."Thank you."I didn't start eating immediately. Despite being awake for nearly ten minutes, there

  • Too Late, Mr. White! I'm Married To Your Rival Now   Chapter 216 God, I've missed you

    Aria's POVMy fingers instinctively reached for the hem of Aiden's shirt, tugging at the soft fabric. His intense gaze dropped to where I touched him, those dark eyes turning into bottomless whirlpools of desire."Yes," he breathed, his Adam's apple bobbing with restraint.Despite the heat flooding my cheeks, the hunger deep within me couldn't be denied. I tentatively slid my hand across his shirt, then wrapped my arms around his taut waist, pulling myself into his chest. His familiar cologne enveloped me—richer, more intoxicating than usual from our proximity. The longing I'd been suppressing surged forward, pulled by that masculine scent."God, I've missed you, Aiden," I murmured, nuzzling against him.He chuckled softly, one large hand cradling the back of my neck as he drew me closer. "What a coincidence. I've missed Mrs. Carter just as much."Without hesitation, I pushed him backward onto the bed, my confidence surging as I stradd

  • Too Late, Mr. White! I'm Married To Your Rival Now   Chapter 215 How could I not?

    Aria's POVI gazed at the bracelet on my wrist, unable to hide my curiosity. There was something distinctly unique about it compared to mainstream designs."Don't you like it?" Aiden asked, his voice dropping to that low timbre that always made my skin tingle."No, I do!" I protested quickly. How could I not? It was just so different from anything else I'd seen before, which made me examine it more carefully."Let me put it on for you," he offered, his eyes never leaving mine.I extended my wrist toward him, feeling the warmth of his fingers against my skin. "What made you suddenly buy me a bracelet?"I rarely wore bracelets or rings when playing piano, preferring to keep my hands unadorned, though my jewelry box certainly didn't lack for options.Aiden took the delicate chain, his strong fingers working the clasp with surprising dexterity. "I thought it suited Mrs. Carter perfectly," he said, his voice carrying that hint of possessiv

  • Too Late, Mr. White! I'm Married To Your Rival Now   Chapter 214 You came back so quickly

    Aria's POVMy body still trembled with aftershocks from our lovemaking as Aiden withdrew from me.The sharp ring of a phone shattered our intimate moment, and he growled in annoyance. Before pulling away completely, he caught my lower lip between his teeth—not hard enough to hurt, but enough to send shivers down my spine.Gazing into those deep dark eyes, my cheeks immediately flushed."My phone," I whispered, suddenly aware of how breathless I sounded.At this hour, it was likely work-related. "Probably Summer," I said, glancing at my phone.Aiden finally released me, leaning back against the couch cushions. I quickly climbed off his lap and walked to the kitchen island to answer the call.It wasn't Summer after all, but another work matter."Could we discuss this over text instead?" I suggested."Of course, of course," the caller replied hastily, clearly realizing they had interrupted something, and quickly hung
