Her Secret, His Obsession のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 61 - チャプター 70

Aria's POV "You cameee!" Mia screams as soon as she sees me. She runs right out of the bar and jumps into my arms. I had to listen to Mama and step out of the house. I had nowhere else to go. I was a little tempted to go to Ronan's hotel, but that would have been an act of foolishness on my part, so I just opted for the only place I knew I would be welcomed—Luna. I let out a startled laugh. "I missed you too, baby," I say while returning her hug. I missed her a lot. If she weren't so busy, we would have spent the entire week together throwing a pity party for me but she was so busy (which is largely my fault), I had to throw my party alone. "I'm so sorry I couldn't stay with you all week. There is just so much to do here, and there are so few staff members. I have started bartending, can you believe that?" She says after pulling back from the hug. "It's a good thing, right? You are not mad at me or anything?" I ask her. She cups my cheeks between her hands and squeezes them. "Yo

Aria's POV "What do you want Adrian?" I ask, the malice dripping from my eyes would be enough to make a normal person freeze and back off but not my psychotic brother, it feels like he feeds on it, feeds on my anger. "I have been trying to reach you for a while now, Juliette..." I smack the towel in my hand on the counter, drawing the attention of everyone around us. I shoot them a small smile. " Don't Juliette me, Adrian." We are currently in Luna. I started working here a little over a week ago. It took a lot of convincing to let Mia let me do this. I convinced her that I needed to get busy until I can figure out what to do next. I didn't tell her the real reason why I needed to keep my mind busy. I have replayed the scene from that night, I have his words imprinted on my heart, everything he said to me, every single word cuts deep in my heart. It's even more complicated because some part of me completely understands him, a part of me gets it, and can't even blame him for the th

Aria's POV "Excuse me, am I interrupting something?" A voice snaps me out of my thoughts. "No, no. You are not interrupting anything." I answer and stand up as fast as I can and look up at the person who spoke. I try to school my expression and try not to show my emotions on my face. The first thought that runs through my mind is how good he looks. He is one hell of a man. He is gorgeous. Dressed in an expensive suit— I know it's probably expensive because I have been seeing a lot of expensive suits on Ronan, I can recognize one when I see it now. He appears well groomed, a neat low cut hair with waves, well defined hairlines and even in the dim light of the club, his skin looks evenly toned. Unlike Ronan's stiff and stoic demeanor, he is relaxed with a strong jawline and a smile that makes him look more approachable and charming.My cheeks stain when I realize that I have been staring at him the entire time without asking what he would like to drink. "I'm so sorry." I apologize

Aria’s POV I stand outside the management agency building, craning my neck to look up at the beautiful and tall building. I blink, suddenly aware of how fast my heart is beating. I called Sebastian last night. More like Mia snatched my phone and called him against my will— maybe it wasn’t completely against my will. As I mentioned earlier, I am curious to know what this is all about. So yeah, this is it. My curiosity and a little hint of desperation have led me here. With me here is Amelia’s lawyer, Mr Brown. He appears so calm and put together, unlike me. I have been jittery, nervous, and sweaty too, which is weird because the weather is definitely not hot. This is the exact reason why I begged him to come with me. Naturally, I need a lawyer with me but I also need someone with a clear head and someone who is composed and impartial— Unlike my best friend who is very partial to Sebastian. “Are we going in or what?” Mr Brown asks. He is finally over my bullshit. We have been stand

Aria’s POV“If this is the kind of treatment we will be getting every time, then I think you made the right decision, my friend,” Mia says. We just checked into the suite that Sebastian had booked for me to get ready for the Aurora awards ceremony tonight. I got Mia to come with and help me get ready, of course. She didn’t need much combining though. The first thing I noticed when we stepped into the suite was how amazing it smells. It literally smells like vanilla and every single good edible you can think of. I stand in the middle of the room, barefoot on the fur carpet, in a red silk robe, and I stare at my reflection in the mirror. The mirror shows my reflection, the same Aria that I have always known - the same old me, only everything has changed for me. Or everything js even about to change even more than before. My eyes are shining brightly with fear and apprehension. Tonight is not just any night. I am not just going there to sip champagne. Tonight is just an award cerem
