Daughter-in-law strikes harder Confession and a surprise
In the huge suite space was a man sitting on one of the comfortable leather chairs, which directly faced the walls of glass that reflected his image exactly the way he sat. As if it was different having to look at himself while sitting, he conceitedly stared at the reflective glass till his assistant had to wait extra more minutes while standing. Realizing that Alex was present in the room already, Dalton stood up and ambled around the large space, with so many thoughts running through his head. He had always been so keen about tremendous success and he was achieving it, but the feelings that he knew about and had not constantly occurred to him so much in the past, were resurfacing and disturbing him greatly. His wealth and power kept him going so that he didn't have time to think much about those things, but it seemed like some kind of therapy was going on in his body even without seeing a doctor. Like some kind of eye opener. He was beginning to notice the things he usu

"Why is Dalton's wife in your pool?!" Hailey demanded shockingly from the half-naked man in the pool, who was directly in front of another person's wife. Aria was still wondering how on earth Hailey was able to enter into a house that was locked, and how closely she knew Collin to talk to him like that. She had never heard him talk about Hailey to her ever, and it was quite a shock. "What are you doing here, Hailey? After all this while?" Collin shot a cold look at the lady ranting before them, and it was quite a side of Collin that Aria had never seen before. She speculated immediately that there must be some bad blood between them, because Collin was not the kind of guy to give such cold welcomes. "Does Dalton know about this? That you are cheating on him?" She asked Aria who was stepping out of the pool in a very disregarding tone with a smirk, and turned to Collin, "You are messing with Dalton's property? Are you ready to give up your life?!" She yelled at him. Aria just

"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
