Aria was called for the interview in the 'Ari hotels', as the assistant to the big boss. The Human Resources chief, Mr. Winston was the one who took over the hiring process.
As the position is for the Assistant of the big boss, he decided to look over the process himself. He didn't want to disappoint his boss.
He looked over at all the applicant's resumes himself and selected 27 applicants, who are experienced and eligible to work as their Boss's Assistant.
He dismissed Aria's application as well, as she is a fresher without experience.
His assistant Avery saw Aria's application in the trash bin.
'Mr. Winston discarded this application? Didn't he know she was recommended by one of their employees?' She thought.
She picked up the application from the trash can and took it to her immediate Boss.
"May income in a boss?" She knocked on his door.
All the human resources and other departments like housekeeping, kitchen department, and
Aria celebrated her new job with Adam and Claire. She tried calling Liam, but he didn't answer her call. So left a text message for him about her new job.But he neither called her back nor replied to her texts. So she decided not to go on any more dates with Liam.He is trying to build his career and it's his priority. He is just 25 years old and has a lot of time for love and marriage ahead of him. So does she.So she decided to concentrate on her career instead. After her 2 week notice period in the preschool is finished, she said her goodbyes to the kids and her colleagues.They said they would miss her. She too will miss them a lot. She promised to come and meet them all whenever she is free.She was supposed to report to her new job on Monday. She took Claire with her and went shopping for formal clothes.If she bought a few skirts, pants and shirts, she could wear them in different combinations, she decided.Aria never liked to waste
"I am sorry sweetheart. I am sorry. Please, please forgive me" he begged her.That made Aria cry harder.Her mind is mixed with different emotions. First Anger took over and tried to push him away.But he didn't let her. That made her even angrier.She started hitting him where ever she could on his torso with her small fists."Why? Why did you do that? Why?" She was crying, hitting him, and accusing him at the same time.Her anger is hurting him more than her fists. He deserves that. So he stood there and let her vent out her anger I him.After ten minutes of this, slowly her anger exhausted, and sadness took over.She let her fists hang loosely on her sides.She is still crying looking at his chest."Why did you do that? Why?" She is now whispering sadly.Aiden is regretting everything more than he regretted these two years."I know what I did is the wrong sweetheart. No matter whatever I say will not make it
"Am I clear?" he whispered, his lips just a breath away from hers.He is supporting his weight on his forearm, which is placed on the door above her head.His nearness is making Aria's mind foggy. It's making her difficult to think with him so near her.But the thought of Claire losing her job brought the anger back and she concentrated on it more.She looked at him square in the eyes. Her head is leaning on the door as well as her body. She can feel his weight on her and it's making her feel things to her, that she should not be feeling for him.Aria didn't dare to move an inch. If she did, she would kiss him accidentally again. She knows he is doing it on purpose. But she refused to give in this time."You cannot do that" she whispered.Aiden smiled at the anger in her eyes."Oh sweetheart, I can do that and even more. I can sue her for the property damage after firing her. And most importantly, you signed a contract with us for 3 ye
Aria is in a confused state of mind. She doesn't want to go back to work for Aiden and at the same time, the termination letter of Claire is mocking her.'She tried to get you a job and you are trying to make her jobless' her subconscious is taunting her.Aiden's text message is teasing her with dark promises, which she doesn't want any part of. She refused to become his plaything again.'You used your body' his words a painful reminder of their past.Aria couldn't go through that kind of trauma again. It's too much to bear on her mental health.'But if I refused to go and work for him, then he would terminate Claire. The termination letter sitting in her mailbox is the proof. He would definitely fire Claire' Aria worried.'What should I do?' Aria thought.She is restless and confused.'What if I confess everything to Adam and Claire?' Aria thought.But she soon ruled it out.'I can't do that. If I do, then Claire wil
"You are late for 5 minutes, so kiss me 5 times. One kiss for one minute" Aiden said smugly.Aria blinked at him with shock."What? Do I need to kiss you for 5 times? What kind of punishment is that? I don't agree with that. I won't kiss you" Aria announced angrily.Aidan anticipated her rejection. He planned his next move as well."Very well. You can go. I am not planning to force you" Aiden said with a mysterious smile.Aria can feel something is not right with his immediate agreement. She knows he is not like that. He won't agree so easily.'What is the planning?' She thought with confusion.She turned away from him and was about to turn the doorknob when he stopped her."Aria" Aiden called her.Aria just turned her head towards him, with her palm still around the knob.'Here it comes' she thought with trepidation."Yes?" She asked hesitantly.Aiden gave her a charming smile."Can you tell Claire to com
"Will you go out like that?" Aiden asked her in amusement.That's when Aria noticed her appearance. Her blouse is untucked and her hair and face will explain what must have happened in his office.His shirt is half-buttoned, but he still managed to look hot.'Aria? Snap out of it' she scolded herself.Aiden is amused at her speechlessness.He caught her by her elbow and led her to the right. There is a door there, which opens into a private bathroom."Wash up and come out. I have work for you" he winked at her, before turning away.He buttoned his shirt back before sitting behind his desk again.Their hotel is new to the hospitality field. But they managed to have a good client base and their banquet halls are usually full of weddings, birthday parties, company parties, meetings, etc.Their prices are fair and they will not charge too harshly on food and drinks either. So, usually, they are the most preferred hotel for high-end e
Claire looked at Aria, who is standing in front of the boss's office in a daze.'What happened to her?' she thought.She exused from her station and slowly approached her friend."Earth to Aria" Claire snapped her fingers in front of Aria's face.Aria was startled and looked at Claire with wide eyes."You scared me" Aria accused Claire, patting her chest.Claire rolled her eyes at her."You are always like this. Anyone can scare you earily" Claire teased Aria."No, not anyone. Only you and Adam" Aria pointed out defensively.Claire sighed. She know Aria is soft hearted and is scared of rain, thunderstorms and darkness. According to Adam, she was not like this in the beggining. This started after she came from Green bay. He feels like, something must have happened there to make her so jumpy. Claire thinks so too. But Aria barely opens up about everything that happened there. Not even the name of her stepbrother."What
Bob is impressed with Aria. He thought he would get a mouthy annoying young lady, but to his surprise, Aria is talented and hard-working.She is hesitating or making a face when he asked for her help to seek out the flowers for the decoration.They received a fresh batch of Tulips that afternoon and Bob wants to decorate Tulips first, where ever they are needed, and then go after purple orchids the next day.As Tulips will stay fresh for longer and Orchids might look dull if they are arranged the previous day of the event.Aria agreed to his idea and they both started to help his decoration crew with the flowers and then with the lights.Tomorrow they would be busy with food preparation and the Orchid arrangements. They should get the decoration done by 3 the next day afternoon.The event will start at 7 sharp, but there will be a photoshoot with the bride and groom with their families starting at 4. After that, they can start working
