All Chapters of Too Late, Mr. White! I'm Married To Your Rival Now: Chapter 101 - Chapter 110

Aria's POVI felt my cheeks burning hotter than the surface of the sun. Was he... flirting with me? The way his lips curled into that devilish smile made him look like some kind of male enchanter, designed specifically to tempt women into sin."I-I..." My words failed me as I stared into those dark, hypnotic eyes.Something shifted between us in that moment - the air became charged with electricity, making it hard to breathe. Without conscious thought, my hand moved forward, fingers trembling slightly as they made contact with his exposed abs beneath the loosened bathrobe.God, his skin was hot to the touch, firm muscle tensing beneath my fingertips."Aria..." Aiden's voice had dropped an octave, husky and raw.Instead of pulling away, he caught my wrist, but not to stop me. He guided my palm to press flat against his stomach, letting me feel the hard ridges of muscle."What are you doing to me?" he growled.Before I could respond, he pulled me against him, one strong arm wrapping aro

Author's POVAiden's sudden appearance had clearly shattered Liam's little fantasy.It also delivered a stinging slap to both Anne and Madison's faces. Madison had been annoyed that Aria insisted on staying, but she'd thought Aria was just bluffing about her husband coming. She figured they could watch Aria make a fool of herself when no one showed up.But within minutes, there was Aiden Carter in the flesh!While Aiden and Aria leaved,the three stood there with their own complicated emotions, Lillian was practically glowing with satisfaction.She was just about to throw out another cutting remark when a young man in a well-tailored suit approached them with an umbrella. "Excuse me, are you Miss Lillian, Mrs. Carter's friend?"Lillian was momentarily thrown off, staring at the man for two seconds before nodding. "Yes, that's me. What is it?""I'm Lucas Grant, Mr. Carter's executive assistant. Mr. Carter asked me to ensure you get home safely in this downpour. Taxis are quite difficult

Aiden's POVI dropped my smile and strode over to her in three quick steps, crouching down beside her. "Did you hurt yourself?"Aria didn't answer, just stayed curled up in that vulnerable position on the stairs.Her silence made my blood run cold. My mind immediately went to her right leg—the one that had barely healed from her previous injury. If she'd damaged it again, the consequences could be permanent."We're going to the hospital," I said firmly, reaching to scoop her up.The doctors had warned me her bones hadn't fully healed. Another injury could mean she'd walk with a limp for the rest of her life—something I wouldn't allow to happen on my watch.With the awkward way she was huddled on the stairs, lifting her would be tricky. One wrong move and we'd both tumble down. I frowned, gently trying to pry her arms from around herself."Let's get you checked out. Be good now."She finally lifted her head, those expressive eyes meeting mine. "I'm so embarrassed!"Relief washed throug

Aria's POVJulian's questions left me slightly puzzled, but I didn't dwell on them; I just wanted to get away as fast as I could.I pulled my phone out of my pocket, feeling Julian's eyes on me as I waved it slightly. "Yeah, we're close. I need to go now. Message me if you have any questions!"I quickly pushed through the half-height barriers surrounding our booth and made my exit. Knowing Aiden was waiting in the parking lot made me hurry—a man who makes millions of dollars per second isn't someone I could keep waiting!Contract signed, I practically sprinted toward the parking garage, my sandals slapping against the polished floor. My mind was fixed on one goal: don't waste Aiden's precious time.I was so focused on rushing that I didn't notice someone approaching until a strong arm caught me around the waist. That familiar woody cologne hit my senses, and I stopped dead in my tracks. Looking up in surprise, I found Aiden standing there."What are you doing here?" I blurted out.The

Aria's POVI woke to the warmth of his lips on mine, soft at first, then insistent. The sensation pulled me from sleep before I was ready, my lashes fluttering open to find Aiden hovering over me.A laugh bubbled up inside me despite the heat curling low in my belly. Is he really waking me up like this?"You're not dreaming," Aiden's deep voice challenged me, his eyes dark with desire."I'm not sure I want to be awake," I answered by pulling him closer, fingers tangling in his thick hair as I guided his mouth back to mine.Our kiss was nothing like before - hungry, desperate, primal. His taste was intoxicating, making me crave more.My hand slid down his hard chest, feeling the ridges of muscle beneath his shirt.Desire clouded my thoughts as my fingers continued their journey downward until I felt the unmistakable hardness straining against his pants. I cupped him boldly, squeezing gently."Fuck," Aiden hissed, breaking our kiss. His eyes were nearly black now. "What are you doing to
