"I do not think anything that Hailey would say or do now, would actually have an effect on Dalton or change his perspective towards Aria. I can say that, hmnnn……" Emma sucked in her breath in an attempt to mull over her next word, so as to use the right word for it, "Maybe he is love?" "Hunh hunh. Isn't that too much of a word to use? Especially when their marriage is ending in a few months. Love is a big word I tell you," Ellen said and stood up immediately to grab her MacBook from where she put it. She had made an order for event planners at a well known agency for her birthday party, and she wanted to check if the progress of her plans were going smoothly. For the makeup artist and hairdresser, she had made a reservation at the best place in the city. "It doesn't even matter to me. I am just happy in my heart, at the fact that Dalton actually has some warm place in his heart, and the capability to fall in love. It is so surreal that I thought I'd never see it," Emma smiled. "

"Make the invitations slots for top A-list celebrities and socialites," Ellen ordered the head maid and planner, as she walked around every corner of the house in a confused manner, "I do not want elites that are thirty five years and above. Minimize the numbers accordingly," she continued. "I think you might want to invite some people from your high school, and even the elite clubs that you have joined in the past," Emma reminded from the dining room where she sat, to apply glitter nail polish over her newly fixed nails, "Also, remind mum not to invite her clumsy club circle of friends. She has been out of the house since morning.""I certainly do not want to invite all of them, and that is why there is going to be an online entry where they know their fates," Ellen stated, and stormed out of the dining room again to check how the entire food preparations with the chefs were going, "Yeah. I have repeated it to her a thousand times.""Your socialism sucks. You literally have no real

Few hours into the party, the gorgeously dressed celebrant was panicking inwardly, even with everything already perfectly set. The invitees were confirmed through their online entry slot and the situation of things looked perfect, with no form of disappointment from anyone. However, the only thing that made Ellen so sad and stressed out, was the fact that her brother was not yet back from his so-called traveling for almost three days. His phone number had been unreachable for too long, and his assistant who later picked their mother's call after so long, said everything was okay. Ellen had tried to remain fine during the course of finalizing everything for the party, but she was really scared that her brother would end up not attending. If anything, Dalton's presence was the most important for her, because it would add much value and respect to her grand party. "Has Dalton picked his calls? Is he coming?" Emma asked as soon as she entered the dressing room to see her sister

"So you do remember that you have some wife somewhere after so long right?" Aria, who was feeling elated when he took her out of the shameful ladies' midst, before she ended up smashing bottles against their heads in anger, asked him. He came at the perfect time just to whisk her away for himself, and she couldn't be more than proud that he knew the perfect timing to arrive. However, her capricious mood had to kick in again, so that he wouldn't just have his way that easily with her, after he had gone without calling even once. "And why do I feel like this dear wife of mine is angry about something, that I should know," he said amusingly again, staring at her beautiful face and how her expression had quickly switched from happy to pissed. He sure missed that look. "I am not angry. All I am saying is that...... Why did you even come to take me away from that place? I was about to teach those ladies some lessons that they would never forget in a hurry," she diverted her anger toward

"Why are you not asking about anything?" Aria asked immediately Dalton ignited the car and zoomed off, after he had tucked her in the seat beside him. "We would talk about that later," he answered her question without looking into her face, and drove on a high speed into the city with the nearest place that they could go to in mind."Just why are you........""The air is cold, so change the cold dress that you are wearing. Take a shirt from the backpack on the car seat," Dalton said to her instead without looking at her still, and focused more on his driving, pressing harder on the accelerator. Aria just pulled off her dress gently in the car without minding him, and changed to one amongst the huge shirts that she found in there. Since he had seen her in that manner several times, she didn't mind and just did her thing with so many things in her mind. She couldn't keep her mouth even if she tried. "I think there is something wrong with that water. If it is possible for Alex to

"The cameras were faulty at the moment?!" Dalton half-yelled in exasperation, and quickly minded the way he reacted when he turned to his back and realized that Aria was still sleeping. He immediately walked away from the bedroom where they slept through the night, to the living room where he could hear what Alex had to say. "Yes sir. The cameras were surprisingly faulty again at that hour, and we were not able to sue anyone because the cameras could not capture them. No news was published and everything here is fine. They ran a test on the water, and apparently it was mixing with some kind of gas already. There was some kind of gas release beneath the pool, and it had not totally disseminated into the water before you were able to bring Mrs. Miller out. We are investigating everything," Alex reported consistently in words to Dalton on the phone, taking no space like he was reading it from somewhere. He had done a good job and it was commendable. "That is a good one. You can t

Dalton's expression became stiff to shock when he watched the video that was played before him, when he and Alex met later that afternoon at the company. He had dropped Aria off for her therapy which was at the second floor to the last of the hospital, while he rushed back immediately when he heard that Alex was able to get his hands on the footage. However, the video that he was watching before him was so terrifying, that never in his life would he have thought something of such happened. It was quite too much for him to handle when he saw the evil that had happened against her, that it broke his heart so much to stir tears out of already stinging eyes. The camera captured the moment that Aria dropped to the ground from the elevated spot, after someone pushed her from behind which the camera also captured. Though the view of the person dressed in all black was too dark to witness and see, it was evident that she had fallen to the ground after she was unknowingly pushed."Wh

Aria didn't go home that night and just slept on the couch throughout the night, after she turned off all the lights in her office at the shopping mall. It was a lonely and sad night alone for her as she was unable to sleep, coupled with the hunger that was biting on her tummy. There was no coffee maker in her office to even prepare coffee that could suppress her hunger, and the waffles that always accompanied the packs of coffee were at departmental offices. It was hard to keep the hunger that she was feeling in her till around 2:00 am at night, as Aria's eyes flashed open away from forcing herself to sleep futilely. She opened the door to her office and came out to the hallway with barely visible lights, as she crept towards the stairs down to the next floor so as not to cause too many problems by using the elevator. Having memorized every floor and room directions in the mall, Aria was able to locate the doors even without bright lights and also found their inner room.
