Bella fluttered her eyes open as she watched Aaron sleeping beside her. He looked so handsome while sleeping that she only wanted to stare at his face.She smiled, recalling how caring He was when they returned home yesterday. He didn't leave her alone for the whole day and worked from home. He called one of the chefs from his mother's house to prepare dinner for them and then Bella slept the whole night in his arms, peacefully. She stretched her hand to touch his face but gave up on the idea and moved closer to his face. "Why are you so handsome, Mr. Machine," she whispered softly so that He wouldn't wake up but unaware of the fact that it was impossible for him to not wake up even at the slightest sound. He was hearing everything she was saying, "My beautiful Machine," she chuckled at his nickname and placed a soft kiss on his cheek before getting out of the bed silently and went to shower. After showering she donned a mid-length nightie as she decided to cook breakfast, she woul

When Aaron entered De Luca's restaurant, Flavio was already sitting there with his wife and the De Luca clan. He gritted his jaws in anger, seeing his second-in-command, Flavio who should be standing beside him not sitting with De Luca. Composing himself, He moved to them. "I thought it's a business meeting, not a family dinner, De Luca," Aaron commented when He reached the table they were sitting upon. "This is a family meeting, actually, Aaron." De Luca smiled standing up. Flavio stood up when he watched Aaron standing beside De Luca.Rosalina and Cara's father, Maximus followed De Luca's lead and stood up as well. Aaron watched them as they all stood up except for one and that was Cara. Flavio noticed Aaron's gaze on his wife, he grabbed her hand and made her stand on her feet. Cara winced in pain inwardly, her body aching from the beating he gave her after their lunch with Killian. This time he beat her like a mad animal. She was wearing a full-sleeved long dress to hide her br

"Say what you want to say," Aaron asked Flavio after settling on the chair of his Cosa Nostra office. It was almost two in the night and He was having a namesake meeting with Flavio. "I hope you are not angry with me anymore…" Aaron raised a finger at him, "I don't have time to talk about stupid things, Flavio. So stop this rubbish and tell me your plan."Flavio gritted his jaws but nodded anyways. "We don't know what Killian will do in the next moment, he is pissed at us because you killed the Senator for not agreeing to our trade deals and blamed it on Killian. He suffered an FBI investigation, his whole organisation was about to come in front of the feds. His image was ruined in society. He had to pay big money to get it back and now he wants revenge on us for putting him through all this."Aaron pointed his gaze on him and leaned forward. "I don't need a revision on my history with Killian from you Flavio. I wrote this chapter of history between me and Killian Mcmanus. What I want

Bella flared her nose at his audacity of bad-mouthing Aaron. And when he stepped closer to her with the same smile, she gritted her teeth in anger and pushed Killian hard. The mocking gleam in Killian's eyes vanished and darkness took over as he stumbled back a little, more in shock rather than force. "You…""How dare you say anything against my husband," she snapped, pointing a finger at his face. "I don't need to know anything about my husband and his doings from you, I know everything about him. And a goon? That's what you are, not my husband. He treats people with respect, He has a kind heart and unlike you He doesn't harass other people's wives because He couldn't trump them in business. My husband is a respectable man and if you ever say a single word about him again I promise I will complain about you to the police and next time don't come in front of me! You Two-sided man."Killian Mcmanus would have killed the person who dared to push him like Bella did but she was still al

Aaron pulled his gun out the instant He heard the gunshots sound and slid towards the nearby wall to hide and looked around to locate the shooters. His men were shooting at the attackers in response."Russians!" Flavio shouted from the side wall where he was hiding.Aaron pinched his eyes but He forced himself to stay calm as always, an angry mind during a gunfight was an invitation to death. He could make out ten attackers in total, from the direction of the bullets He knew there they were hiding. He could make a straight shot from here to four of them but the other six had to be dealt from the other side. Two bullets were fired at him, He ducked his head and fired twice at the shooter, the bullets hit his chest and he fell down. Aaron shot at the other man hiding behind a car. Aaron fired at the fuel tank of the car and it blasted into flames taking away the man with it. Aaron looked at Flavio from his peripheral vision, he was shooting at the attackers and had taken out a few. H
