Aria walked out of the mansion even before Dalton stepped out and entered into the vehicle, with assurance in her heart that Dalton would end up doing what she wanted. If he wanted to curry his grandfather's favor for the very last time and achieve his goal, he had to sign the ownership of the company that he had promised her and told the press about, right before they would even go to the banquet. In the letter that his grandfather sent to him through his assistant, there were phrases that wrote that Dalton had to try to win Aria's heart, to give him a child before the end of their marriage finally came. And for ending their marriage too which was as written in the contract, was a decision that would actually be based on Aria's opinion at the end. Mark Miller made it that way without telling Dalton, because he believed that if the marriage still continued after they reached the end of three years, then it meant that his grandson had actually succeeded in winning his wife's h
"What happened with stealing the invitation card and all. Is this how the whole thing finally goes?" Ellen, who made sure to stop by her mother's room after watching Dalton leave in the limousine, jeered at her mother's failure to do what she had promised heavens and earth to do. "Who would have known that the sneaky old man was bringing an invitation card, for a party that was to be held in two days time?" Eleanor clenched her teeth in anger, as she picked a sachet of supplement from the numerous ones in the packaged box and sipped one. "When someone is all talk, Dalton wouldn't just fail to disappoint them," Ellen said with a really mean look in her eyes, that had her mother wondering if that was still her daughter who was always supporting most of her plans fully. Especially the ones that came to separating Dalton and Aria."Are you even supporting your friend in this whole thing anymore? Do you even want her to still be officially part of this family? This isn't like you," Elean
Aria sat up on her bed extremely suffocated, with her lungs refusing to let easy passage of air through her nostrils or mouth. She could have never imagined. She would never have wanted something of such to ever happen, between her and Dalton till they got divorced. 'Kissing him was even more reasonable but making love to him? How did it happen? How did this happen to you? How could you let your guards down?!' Aria scolded herself so badly in her head, unable to let her tears out even if her heart was feeling so bad. Her body shuddered at the faint memories of how her nails dug into Dalton's back, and of how she let out amorous moans in his ears in response to the pleasure she was feeling. How his hands worked magic on her necks down to her breast, and how hot his tongue heated her body in the right places. It was hard to not remember how she let herself lose control to her husband, and how she had never really put mind to whom she would allow to get that close to her first. The
The air in the house was awkward, and everyone could feel that it began after the banquet. They all wondered what was going on with the couple, that seemed like they were on non-talking terms or more like an inarticulate situation. It was more different than how the past had been between them, and how it usually was like if their cloudy space was as a result of a grudge or fight. More like Aria didn't want to ever be in the same space with Dalton. And he knew it. He noticed that she had been avoiding him so effectively ever since, and didn't even really open the door to anyone who came knocking. She was either out of the mansion once it was dawn, or in her room doing something no one knew about. Dalton had really been so frustrated because of her behavior, and thought it would be the best to just act normally like nothing ever happened. But she was not ready to give a chance to meet, which was aided by his constant travelling throughout the week. It was during one of their
With the perfect plan that Eleanor had in mind to execute once and for all, morning at Millers was busier than expected with numerous legs walking back and forth, with assigned tasks being put into action Eleanor had instructed the head servants, to get every servant extremely busy with extensive cleaning and replacing of old things in the house. From kitchen equipment to sets of porcelain plates, utensils, flower vases, interior designs and so many other things that would not obstruct Dalton's choice. That same morning too, they had the measurements of the servants that retained their jobs after the search, for a change of their uniform's colour and styling. Despite the rowdiness and sounds of objects rather than people, everything was still neatly organized in the right and perfect manner. Aria had woken up later than she usually did in her peach night dress, which she had woken up at night to change into, and had hours of restlessness before she could sleep again. She rar
Everyone had lost their state of rest since Dalton arrived back at the mansion, as they all moved in confusion because they didn't even know what to do. Hailey remained in Eleanor's room when Alex came to call on them, to avoid facing the direct wrath of the man she was doing everything she could to win over. Ellen took the advantage of the situation to chide her mother's attitude, while Emma continued to panic as she remained in her room still. They all knew in their hearts that the only person who could do the perfect job of tracking her down, was the IT personnels that worked as the heart of both the family and company. Her phone numbers were not going through no matter how they tried to call her, and it was more difficult to track her because her phone was off. But it was still a fact that Dalton would end throwing everyone out of the house, if they didn't do anything to aid the situation. However, they didn't even know what to do."Fucking idiots! They couldn't even make a
A meeting was taking place in a conference room of the board of directors and a CEO, and were talking about innovative plans to improve the effective output of their resort inorder to aid much productivity. They already had made available golf courses for elites who loved the sport as a recreation, but needed more exclusive improvement to bring better ratings to the economic center. The executives were brainstorming and thinking as required of their CEO, who just watched everyone silently in their own mulling state. Quickly, an agitated but comported assistant entered into the meeting room and ambled quickly over to his boss's side, to inform him of the development that was taking place outside the company's walls. Collin, who had returned back to work after his quite stressful journey, was sitting back on the luxurious chair, unfazed about what he had just been told by his assistant. He decided to end the meeting which was in favor of most of them who were unable to think of
The fire had begun to spread rapidly to every part of the house, and the ceiling made of high quality wood had started to burn its hot ashes to the floor. Aria was not finally unconscious yet, by her eyelids had begun to slide close, to the shutting down of her body system. The glass door began to bang so loudly as it threatened to break from its hinges, because of the strong force that was hitting on it from outside the door. The force soon changed its direction, to the other side of the house on the glass wall which would be much easier. As the bangs increased and became much harder, the fire spread more to every part of the house, which unfortunately had its sprinklers malfunctioning at that point in time. By the last final blow that collided against the glass that had been hit so many times, it shattered to a large size and the stuffed heat that ejected out of it instantly was intense. Trying every of his best and using the most of his strength, Dalton anxiously hit the
