Mr Ford, I'm not sure we have an appointment so what brings you to my house?" Mr Hawthorne asked, his eyes darting to the direction of Jayden's study room every now and then as he tried to remain cautious in whatever he said to me Ford. "Of course, we don't have an appointment but coming to see was more impromptu and very essential." Mr. Ford stated, his anger rising the more he thought about how everyone had awakened because of Jayden. "Well then—" Mr Hawthorne started but Mr Ford was irritated by the very presence of any Hawthornes and just wanted to state his deal and leave so he acutely cut him off abruptly. "Allow me to finish. This isn't a contracted marriage affair that we are talking about so why don't you listen to me first before trying to jerk in your suggestions which won't be needed because I didn't come here to listen to your jamboree." Mr Ford stated, his eyes red with anger as he halted at Mr Hawthorne who had no other option but to shut his mouth up. Something was
"Mum, we've been walking past these aisles more than three times now and you've not yet settled on anything that you like. How much longer are we going to do this? And can you please tell me exactly what we're looking for?" Marina complained as she dragged her feet lazily following her mum who was scouting for some dresses."Are you already tired? Because we are not even close to being done. We still need to get some groceries after grabbing these clothes and quit asking me what we're looking for. I don't even know what we're looking for but we would know it once we set our eyes on it." Marina's mum repeated the phrase that she had said over and over again and at this point, Marina was already tired of hearing it."Can't we just get any clothes?" Marina begged."Anything I wear would suit me." Marina pleaded, her legs were worn out and the thought that they would still get groceries only made the energy that she had been conserving vanish into thin air and he no es felt weak at all a
Marina emerged from the dressing room, her mother's eyes widening in awe as she took in the sight of her daughter in the stunning white gown. The delicate lace and intricate details sparkled in the light, accentuating Marina's curves in all the right places. Her hair was styled perfectly, and her makeup enhanced her natural beauty."Aiden, come see!" Mrs. Ford exclaimed, beckoning him over. "Marina, you look absolutely breathtaking!"Aiden's eyes widened as he took in the sight of his wife, his face filled with admiration and adoration. "Wow, Marina... you look incredible," he whispered, his voice full of emotion.Marina blushed, her eyes shining with happiness as she twirled around, showing off the dress from every angle. "Do you like it, Aiden? I feel like a princess!"Aiden nodded, his eyes never leaving hers. "You are a princess, Marina. My princess. And you look perfect in that dress."As they shared a tender moment, Francesca's eyes narrowed from across the room, her face twiste
As Aiden and Marina drove back home, they were both still basking in the warmth of their wonderful day together. They had just turned onto the main road when suddenly, a car swerved into their lane, blocking their path.Aiden slammed on the brakes, and Marina let out a little gasp as they came to a stop just inches from the other car's bumper. They both sat there for a moment, shaken but unharmed."What was that guy thinking?" Aiden muttered, shaking his head.Marina leaned forward, peering out the windshield. "I don't know, but he's not even stopping to see if we're okay!"Aiden's eyes narrowed as he watched the car speed away. "That's weird. You'd think he'd at least check to see if we're all right."But as they sat there, Aiden's gaze lingered on the departing car, and suddenly, his heart skipped a beat. There was something familiar about that car... and the license plate..."Marina, I think I know who that was," Aiden said slowly, his mind racing.Marina turned to him, concerned.
"I don't understand why you would allow yourself to be so worked up about your elder brother, I know he's dangerous and stuff but is he worth all this stress?" Mark questioned as she woke up in the middle night not finding Aiden by her side. She walked to the living room only to see him sipping on a glass of whiskey, the bottle was already half gone. "You can't be serious, you're even drinking. Something you rarely do because of a threat from your brother." Marina scolded as she snatched the glass of alcohol from his hands. "That's not what's on my mind, I have no business with that but can't you see that everything is just too connected to be a coincidence? I'm still dealing with Claw and Francesca just shows up as a receptionist in my company." Aiden muttered as he rolled his eyes and rubbed the center of his forehead. "We said if she causes you any trouble, you'd just fire her right? Is she giving you any trouble at work?" Marina questioned staring at her husband's worried face,
I don't know what you're talking about, ex-boss." Amira stated trying to pretend that she didn't really know what Aiden was insinuating. "That's what you should know by me by now. You shouldn't try online with them so if he contacts you again, I want you to let him know that know about your little plans. Tell him that I'm fed up with it, do out understand?" Aiden whispered into her ears and hot into his car, driving to work. Today, he wasn't going to go to his company. He had been overlooking Claw but it turned out that Claw really wanted attention and that was exactly what he was going to give him. He had rang up some of his old business partners who were in possession of the 'B' file that Claw was trying to get from Aiden. As he drove, his mind wandered to his wife and he wondered what she must be doing. Were the guards doing a good job of keeping her safe? Was she safe? She was on his mind and at the forefront for all he acted as he got to the company of his associate. "Good m
"Please, don't tell me you rented out the entire restaurant for just the both of us to eat." Marina gasped as she walked into the restaurant he had passed the location for her and saw that no one except him was there.From the door down to where he sat, it was a dramatic and romantic entry and view. The red roses that were all over the place were a plus to the beauty."What did you say?" He asked as she had said what she said but he was too far away to hear her."I said, don't tell me you rented this whole place out for the both of us to eat." She stated and he shrugged his shoulders."Okay." He said lowly and signaled for the waiter to bring the menu so they could pick out what they wanted to eat."Aiden!" She called staring intently at him."Yes." He answered looking up from the menu that had been handed over to him."Did you?" She asked and he stared at her for a few seconds before lowering his gaze."I did." He simply replied and she glared at him like her eyes as going to burn hi
"Why shouldn't it?" Aiden stated, pouting his lips and Marina almost asked if he was sulking but decided against it."I don't know. Why should it?" She bantered and he eyed her before taking a deep breath and placing his hands on the top of the table."No one should be seeing you with that cute expression if it isn't me. It's specifically for me." He stated and Marina chuckled a bit."Alright, enough of the talk. Start eating." He said returning his phone to his pocket and Marina stated what the waiters would lay out on her table for her.After they finished the meal, they both returned to their different workplaces though Aiden had dropped Marina off at her company.Getting to his company, Aiden glared at Francesca as she flashed him from the receptionist's desk.It was even more annoying that he had to see her first once he walked into his company and it aggrieved him all the more."Liam?" Aiden called one of the heads of departments as he walked to his office."Yes sir," Liam answe
