Aaron continued to drink uncontrollably, but still refused to get drunk. While sitting on the chair, his eyes were glued on the door. He still won't stop expecting her. He misses Shelby. But he never knew the woman situation, thinking she had abandoned him just like the way Charlotte did. "All women are the same," he muttered to himself. Shelby had been trying him for a long time and he had been avoiding her, paying her up, because of his weak trust in women. And as days passes, he never payed her up anymore, he continued staying with her, thinking she was serious with him. For a while, he couldn't believe he liked a single mother whose husband abandoned. At least that's what she told him. Aaron sighed softly, now thinking maybe her husband came back home. Maybe that was the reason she never came to him. For a while, a bolt of jealously struck him. He wanted to know who that animal was, and how dare he?! He went away from her life and came back? A least that's what he can believe.

"I should...?" She nervously flickered her eyes, pushing him aback angrily. "What are you doing, you..."she wanted to curse, bit held back her tongue, pointing directly at his face. "You can curse me if you want but you aren't leaving here without helping me with my bath. You just said something shamelessly without filtering the words and you think you can escape that easily, Paige?" He asked, smirking at the girl. Paige moved to the back, trying to leave the room and embarrassing situation she puts herself into. Turning around, she suddenly felt a pull, which almost got her slipping off her feet, but was saved by the arms that took her closer to himself. "Ugh!" She groaned softly. He was holding her arms, while her hands were on his chest. Ryan didn't realize when his back moved the button, that made the water shower on the both of them. Paige lifts up her head, to see the water dropping slowly on them both. "Hey, what are you doing trying to escape from me?" She heard his hoar

*8 pm* 'knock, knock, knock,' someone knocked on Paige's room. The girl was wearing her pyjamas, when she heard the knock on her door. She wondered who is behind the door. She walked towards it and suddenly stopped. "It must be Ryan," she muttered to herself, as a frown crept up her face. That man! She walked up to the door and opened it widely. It was really him. He was standing behind the door, smiling creepily at her. "What?!" She questioned, feeling irritated already. Ryan frowned at her expression. Why is she looking like she doesn't care he came to call her. "Are you kidding right now Paige? What's with that expression you got over there?" He points to her face. "Non of your business. Why are you even here in the first place?" She questioned, frowning at the man standing by the door. "Do you really want the meal getting cold? Come have your dinner," "My dinner?" She raises up her brows. He looked at her from her head to her toe. Seeing that she was fully clad with the

The two servants bowed at Nancy, who eyed the people present, then at Paige who was standing straight, not bowing to her, like everyone else. Well that's not what she is here for. She is here for Ryan. She doesn't have time to start scolding a petty maid. She thinks to herself, before walking further. "Where is Ryan?" She questioned. "Sir is out ma'am," the maid answered and she nods her head in reply."At the company?" She questioned, staring at them, including Paige, who was obviously avoiding them. "Yes ma'am," "Okay," She walked towards the elevator, leading to Ryan's room. After seeing her out of sight, the two servants made a sigh of relief, before turning to look at Paige. 'she should just have used the stairs. She is so arrogant," Paige muttered to herself. "You should have welcome her like we both did. Why are you just arrogant. Don't you like your job?" The woman scolded her and Paige scoffed. "You call me whatever you want. I already told you, I work for Ryan only

"why are you laughing?" Paige raised her brows, questioning her friend who was busy laughing. After laughing for a little while, she stopped slowly, giving out a chortle. "Paige, are you jealous of Nancy?" She asked still chortling. Paige's face darkened, and she hit her friend's shoulders. "Stop teasing me Shelby. What are you saying now. Why should I be jealous of that rich pampered bitch. It's like you are making me too small. So common ," she folds her hand, having a glum face. "So you are not jealous of Nancy?" "Yes I am not. She is not worth it. She is just a pampered brat of a rich family who thinks she can get everything for herself," she grumbled grumpily, and Shelby laughed again, frustrating the girl, who almost bleed to death. "Stop it!" ***Later in the evening...Ryan came back home being accompanied by his PA. She was holding a document with her, saying the contents in it to her boss. "Mrs August, I want you to sign it yourself and handle the matter," he said, t
