Lahat ng Kabanata ng Too Late, Mr. White! I'm Married To Your Rival Now: Kabanata 121 - Kabanata 130

Aria's POVThe passive-aggressive barbs made me glance up sharply. Two women I'd never seen before stood nearby, champagne flutes clutched in their perfectly manicured hands, their expressions dripping with manufactured concern.Since I didn't know them from Adam, I saw no reason for false politeness. "Not nearly as dedicated as you two, putting on this little comedy show at such a distinguished event," I replied coolly, my voice cutting through their pretense like a blade."You—!" One woman immediately bristled, her carefully constructed mask slipping at my swift retort.The other maintained her composure, though her smile grew increasingly strained. "Miss Jones, my third-grade niece happens to need a piano instructor. You must have plenty of free time these days, right? I mean, your skill level seems perfectly suited for teaching elementary students."She paused with theatrical flair, placing a hand over her heart. "I mean absolutely no offense, of course. I simply admire your... ta

Aiden's POVAs soon as I pulled into the garage, I cut the engine and turned to study Aria. Her cheeks were flushed a deep crimson, her breathing shallow and rapid."We're home," I said simply.She blinked, seeming to emerge from a daze. "Oh... right."She fumbled with her seatbelt, practically stumbling out of the car. I watched carefully as she swayed slightly on her feet."You okay?" I asked, moving to her side."Just dizzy," she admitted, pressing her hand against her flushed cheek. "And so hot. Do I have a fever?""You're drunk," I said bluntly.Her eyes widened in genuine surprise. "That's impossible. I only had juice with Claire, and then that fruit drink while I was waiting for you.""Fruit wine," I corrected her."Really?" She looked genuinely shocked, and I felt a surge of protectiveness wash over me.Before I could say anything else, Aria's lips crashed into mine, catching me completely off guard.Her small hands fisted in my shirt, pulling me closer with surprising strengt

Aria's POVMy consciousness began to blur as waves of intense dizziness crashed over me.I could only remember that the afterglow of my climax hadn't yet faded, but suddenly my entire body felt like it was on fire, burning from the inside out."Aria?"I heard Aiden calling my name, his voice seeming to drift from somewhere far away. I wanted to respond, but found I could barely keep my eyes open, my throat parched and aching."So hot... Aiden... I feel awful..." I managed to whisper, my voice so hoarse it startled even me.I felt Aiden withdraw from inside me, then carefully gather me into his arms. The cool touch of his palm against my forehead provided a moment's relief from the burning sensation."Hold on, I'm taking you to the hospital."He quickly pulled clothes from the closet, dressing me in an oversized T-shirt and sweatpants. I tried to dress myself, but my arms felt like limp noodles, completely useless.I hooked my arms around Aiden's neck, pressing my cheek against his sol

Aria's POV"Now," he commanded, staring into my eyes with fierce concentration. "Come for me now."My body obeyed instantly, clenching around him as waves of pleasure crashed over me. I screamed his name, not caring if the entire building heard me.Aiden followed seconds later, his rhythm faltering as he released inside me with a hoarse groan.……I woke up close to eleven the next morning, my body feeling heavy and thoroughly spent. Rubbing my face with one hand, my stomach growled loudly, reminding me I hadn't eaten since yesterday. Every muscle protested as I tried to get out of bed, memories of the previous night flooding back.It had been absolutely wild.After we left the gala, first in the car, then later when we got home. Following our hospital visit, I'd given him oral in the car... The most intense part had been in his penthouse office. We'd gone from the floor-to-ceiling windows to his desk. At one point, I'd climaxed while sitting on his keyboard...Oh god... his office des

Aria's POVAiden tore open the wrapper and popped the candy into his mouth.He turned to look at me sitting beside him. "Not sweet enough. Bit sour.""Oh?" I was caught off guard. "But it's clearly very sweet."He didn't respond, instead fixing his gaze on the wine glass in my hand. "Not drinking?"Following his line of sight, I realized I had only taken a small sip—the glass was still mostly full. His expression clearly conveyed the message: "If you don't drink it, I will."I glanced at the two empty bottles beside him and quickly shook my head. "I am drinking." Without hesitation, I raised the glass and drained all the wine in one gulp.After finishing, I couldn't help but let out a small hiccup. The rich aroma confirmed this was premium wine—such a waste to drink it so carelessly.I turned the empty glass upside down. "All gone. Not a drop left."Aiden looked away, swallowed the last bit of candy, then closed his eyes and leaned back against the wine rack in silence.I sighed, conv
