The Woman From His PastAn hour later, Aria arrived at AVELON Group. The moment she stepped into her own world and space, she felt herself breathe easier; this was the only place she could be her real self.Kelvin was already waiting inside the conference room. He looked up in surprise when he saw her."Why did you come early?" looking at his wristwatch.“I didn't want to stay home.” Aria forced a smile.His expression softened immediately. He immediately noticed she was not in her best mood.Aria spent the rest of the morning inside her office trying to focus on work.Unfortunately, her mind refused to listen. That name kept repeating in her head.She hated herself for allowing it to affect her this much. It had been two years. But the mention of Bella was enough to shake the little confidence she had built. Maybe because a part of her is still strapped in the secret hallway in college with the echoes of those unforgettable promises Bella and Dave made to each other, which she was

The Distance Between ThemAria quickly bent down, picked up the file, and left the office before Dave saw her.“Give this file to your boss,” Aria handed the file to Dave's assistant, her hands trembling. “But, ma’ma.” Before the assistant could finish her sentence, Aria had already reached the exit door.“I shouldn’t have come in the first place.” Those words constantly echo in her thoughts.Dave's eyes still fixed on the door, he felt that someone was standing there. He quickly recovers and untangles himself from Bella’s hug. “I’m sorry, I'm really sorry.” Bella immediately stepped away from Dave and adjusted her dress. A satisfying smile appeared on her lipsAria did not return home immediately after leaving Liam Group.She walked aimlessly through the street. The scene she saw in that office refused to leave her mind. “Bella had only stumbled, and Dave acted out of humanity, nothing else.” Aria was lost in her thoughts, her hands clutching tightly to her bag, but for a brief mom

QUESTIONS HE NEVER ASKEDDave got into the back seat beside Ethan.“Did you find what you were looking for?” Ethan asked.“No.”Dave's answer was brief, but Ethan observed him for a while and decided not to push. Their driver drove off from the exhibition center.Ethan opened the file he had been carrying. “About Leon.” He said. “Go on.” Dave immediately focused on him, “Damien Rothe has placed him in charge of business development. They're preparing a new luxury collection, and they've already started approaching some companies we work with.”“Any direct move against us?”“Nothing serious yet,” Ethan responded“Then find out what they're planning; we shouldn’t wait for them to make a move”Ethan nodded.Dave looked through the window. The incident at the exhibition came flashing back, but he pushed it aside. Leon was the problem he needed to deal with now.Aria left the exhibition hall through another entrance.She didn’t notice Dave.The young lady who had dropped the sample boxes

THE QUESTIONS BEHIND CLOSED DOORSAt 6 a.m., Aria tiptoed downstairs. The house was so quiet.She had barely slept after hearing Lilly talk about Bella the previous evening. What bothered her most was not Lilly's words. It was Dave's hesitation to give a reply to Lilly.Just a few days ago, he had been keeping tabs on her activities. "When she would be back home, if she had eaten.” Even though she couldn’t tell where all those questions were coming from, Aria had almost believed, for a moment, that he cared; she thought their relationship had changed a little.She immediately pushed the thought away. “It was better not to misunderstand him.” She picked up her bag and headed toward the door.The old housemaid, Mrs. Rose, walked out from the kitchen and stopped when she saw her."Madam Aria?"Aria turned."You're leaving already? It's early.”“I have some work to take care of."Mrs. Rose glanced at the clock. "It's just 6 a.m.”Aria gave a small smile. “I know.”The older woman studied

THE VOICE HE knowsHer mouth fell open, but she couldn't speak. She had expected Dave to ask her many things, but not this one."I'm a creative professional." She finally said.Dave's eyebrows drew together. "A creative professional?""Yes. I do creative work." Her grip tightened hard on the jug. She couldn't tell him about AVELON now. If he cared, he would have found out a long time ago.Dave gaze stayed on her; he wanted more answers: what type of creative professional? Where exactly do you work? But he held back. He didn't want to come on too hard on he "Okay." He said as he turned and walked downstairs.Aria remained on that spot, watching him disappear. She released a slow breath she didn’t realize she was holding in. Tonight she thought her secret was going to be exposed. Bella waited outside Aria’s company so early in the morning. She looked up at the massive building from her car’s front glass, her eyes moving across the name displayed prominently at the entrance (AVELON GROU
