"Asher" That voice which he last heard three years ago made Asher freeze. There was a time when he used to feel good when he heard that voice. But now, he felt nothing. Not even the familiarity of their past two years relationship. Slowly he lifted his head and looked at Chloe Collins. Standing in front of him is not his ex, it's a famous super model. Chloe used to look fragile and gentle back then. But he noticed her arrogance almost two and half years ago during one of her interviews. It's as if that fragile and innocent girl never existed. Now, the same arrogant super model who thinks the world dances around her is standing in his cabin. His gaze lost the warmth from earlier. What surprised him was, he felt nothing for Chole. Not even the anger which he used to feel in the beginning after she left. With that thought came a realisation, that Chloe means nothing to him. "I hate people who enter without knocking. I think Ms. Collins forgot her manners" he commented in a blan

The next morning, Asher was not pleased to see Chloe bossing around Aria. "Hey, go and get me a cup of coffee" Chloe snapped at Aria after she woke up from her sleep. She was still wearing the same dress from last night, and she was acting as if she is the mistress of the house. She thought Aria is the house keeper, as Chloe heard that Asher lives alone. Aria was calm despite how rude Chloe was. "Ms. Collins, the house keeper will help you with your breakfast. I have to go now" with that said, Aria left to work without informing Asher about early departure. Chloe glared at Aria, but before she could say anything, she saw Asher coming down the stairs. Asher was looking at Aria's disappearing figure with displeasure. This is the first time she left without him. And he didn't like it, not even a little bit. He wanted to go after her, but he had to deal with Chloe as well. "Asher, thank you so much for taking me home last night" Chloe rushed towards him and thanked him sweetly.

"Ash" she whispered with horror as her tears started to roll down her cheeks. "Hmm" he hummed in reply. As his adrenaline started to wear off, he started to feel the pain behind his back. Aria immediately leaned down and saw the broken glass pieces piercing his back over his suit jacket. "Ash" she cried with fear and worry over him. He lifted his head to look at her tear stained cheeks. "What happened? Are you hurt some where?" he Inquired worriedly, ignoring the stabbing pain behind his back. His clothes are drenched with his blood, but he is more concerned about her rather than him. Aria forgot that they have audience. She slapped his chest lightly. "Idiot, you are hurt. But still you are inquiring about my non existent injuries? Some one call an ambulance" she cried out the last part with fear over his safety. She is holding him tightly with both hands, worried that he might fall. Her alarmed cry pushed everyone into action, and someone called for an ambulance. But every

"She is nothing special like you imagine her to be. I slept with her once when I was drunk. So that's why I proposed marriage to her. I don't think I ever had deeper feelings for her. It was just a sense of responsibility. Now she is responsible for her own life. It's no longer my responsibility. Please Aria, let's not talk about her. Last night I brought her home because she passed out and i couldn't leave her on the streets. If something happens to a woman because of me, any woman, let alone Chloe, i will feel guilty for the rest of my life. That's the only reason I brought her home last night. Nothing else" he finally got a chance to explain, leaving her surprised. This is the first time Asher spoke about his past relationship with Chloe. And when he made sure that he was no longer interested in her, Aria couldn't explain the relief she felt at that moment. It was hard not to smile happily. It might be wrong, but she was damn happy to hear his confession. And looking into his eyes

Two days later, both Asher and Aria were back to work. Aria wanted him to rest for a few more days, but he insisted that he was bored without her at home. These two days, their relationship took a turn in the direction which she never thought possible. He was always touching her, and he kept sneaking kisses as well. She was blushing the whole time. And to her amusement, he kissed her just before they got out of their car in front of the Morrison group. "Ash" she complained, mostly because she is worried that someone might see them. He grinned wofishly, without caring about anyone. But as soon as he got of his car, all the playfulness vanished as he happened to get face to face with Chloe who was just being escorted out of her car. Aria looked at Asher, who all but ignored her and started to walk inside like he always does. Aria quickly followed after him. Soon the marketing department director and the director of the photo shoot joined Asher and Aria. "Mr. Morrison, Ms. White,
