Adam and Aiden remain quiet for some time.
"So this Noah is the one who killed your father?" Adam asked.
Aiden nodded.
"How did you know for sure? Do you have anything against him to prove that he is the one?" Adam asked.
"No, he confessed it himself. It's around the same time when I hurt Aria. I was shocked, confused, and angry. I didn't know how to deal with that kind of revelation at that time. I confronted him, and he agreed that it's him who is behind all this" Aiden revealed.
"If it's him, then why don't you complain against him?" Adam asked.
"It's not that easy. He comes from old money. His father was a very reputed and powerful man. Noah used his father's contacts to erase every little detail that proves him as the culprit. But if I still complain, Martin is the one who would be behind the bars as soon as the investigation starts. Noah made sure that the Accident video popped up whenever someone started investigating my father's death" Aid
After Adam's revelation, both Aria and Claire are stunned with surprise."Did I hear wrong, or did he said what I think he did?" Aria asked looking at Claire.Claire too is shocked by Adam's change in behavior."Yes, he said what we heard" Claire confirmed.'One meeting with Mr. Knight and Adam changed his tune to a 180. Is Mr. Knight a magician?' Claire thought."What made you change your mind?" Aria asked Adam.Adam chewed the food in his mouth slowly, before he answered Aria."Mr. Knight explained what kind of a person Noah is. I understood why he thinks Noah is dangerous. I agree with him. It would be better if you could stay safe and away from trouble" Adam advised Aria.Aria nodded her head with her mouth agape.'Is it true or am I dreaming?' Aria thought.Claire too is in a state of shock.'Last night we both tried to make him understand. But he didn't listen to either one of us. But now he listened to Mr. Knig
Aria rushed to 5th floor and found the work is already under progress. She greeted Bob with a broad smile."Great Aria, come I need your help with the decorations. Help me arrange this flowers" Bob is flustered, as he has to make everything ready with in a few hours.Aria didn't waste any time. She immediately got to work. She started arranging flowers in the way Bob wanted them.After that, the bunched flowers would go to the decorations. The banquet hall looked like, it just saw a hurricane.The floor is littered with the reminants of the decoration pieces and stems of the flowers, a few leaves, ballons which are blown and a few which are ruined.It's dosen't look like, there would be a party going on there, in just a few hours time. Aria can understand why Bob is flustered.The flower delivery was delayed a couple of hours than they were supposed to arrive. That delayed everything, pushing everyone to rush untill the very last momen
Aria decided to stay untill Bob could come back. She made sure that everything is where it should be and nothing is out of place.Finally Bob came back, after washing the sweat off his face."I will take care from here. You go check with our chef, if everything is going on as it should be" Bob told Aria."Ok" Aria smiled and slipped off the 5 th floor.She went in to the huge kitchen, towards the side where the food for the event is being prepared."Hey Chef" Aria greeted the chef and asked him about the food."It's going smooth and good. Tell Bob not to worry. Everything will be ready on time" the chef assured Aria.After getting the assurance from the Chef, Aria went to report everything to Aiden.She knocked on his door and entered when she heard his 'Come in'.By now, it's 4.30 and she already saw the Bride and the groom going upstairs to the 5th floor."Good evening Sir" Aria greeted Aiden to get his attent
Someone delivered Aria's dress to the Salon. After hearing that Aria is Aiden's fiancee from Claire, the employees in the salon began to take extra care of Aria.Aria didn't understand what the fuss is all about, but she kept it to herself. But the permanent Smirk on Claire's face is making Aria nervous.'What did she do? I am sure she must have done something.' Aria thought.Aria raised a questioning eyebrow towards Claire, but she just shrugged as if she knows nothing.After she is done, Aria changed into her dress, and when she came out, Claire squealed loudly."My God Aria. You look hot" Claire said.Aria blushed and looked at herself in the mirror. Indeed she looks beautiful.Her waist-length dark brown hair cascading down her back in soft waves. Her makeup is minimal. Just a little mascara and a dash of eye shadow.Her lips are painted red and are attracting attention. Her heels are red as well. And with a clutch, her look is don
Slowly Aria began to relax at the party. She smiled and nodded politely, whenever someone started showing interest in talking with her, she started to nod and engage in small talk.Aiden would always be somewhere close by. After half an hour into the party, Aria was talking to a kind old lady, who was telling her about her engagement days."My fiance was so attentive and charming, I fell in love with him even before our marriage. He was a good man. He was a good husband and a good father. So sad, I lost him sooner than I thought" she said sadly."Oh, I am sorry Mrs. Simmons. It's really sad to hear that" Aria said sympathetically.Mrs. Simmons smiled at Aria."It was a long time ago. Did you see that groom over there?" the kind old lady pointed towards the Dias.Aria followed her gaze and noticed the groom clearly for the first time.That man is smiling and seems to be jovial. He looks handsome in a boy next door kind of away.
After he snapped at Natasha, Aiden turned in the direction where he saw Aria fit the last time.When he saw her a couple of minutes ago, she was talking with a kind old lady. But now, the old lady is standing there alone, and there is no sign of Aria.The old lady pointed towards the exit door helpfully. Aiden nodded his head in thanks.He walked out of the party, leaving a red-faced Natasha in the middle of the mess she started."Natasha" her father slapped her on her face with anger."Dad" she cried with pain embarrassment."I told you time and again not to embarrass me like this. But you are shameless and an idiot. Why did you decide that it's a good plan to make a scene in the middle of my friend's Son's engagement party?" Natasha's father snapped at her angrily and pulled her out of the party with an apologetic look towards his friend's family.After they left, the party resumed again.On the other hand, Aria changed i
Aria sat in one chair and Aiden occupied the other.He served food on two plates.Aria's mouth watered at the smell of food."Where is Natasha?" Did she blurt out without thinking?Aiden looked at her with confusion."How would I know?" Aiden answered with a frown.'Ha? I thought he must have accepted her proposal and they would have been dancing happily by now. The way she proposed in front of everyone is so.. Bold and reckless. I thought he would be impressed by that kind of behavior. Then what happened?' she thought with confusion.Aria looked at him with a confused frown."I mean, she was proposing you so openly in front of so many people. I thought you must have accepted her proposal. So, I thought this is all for her" Aria pointed out at the food in front of them.Aiden snorted sarcastically."If you would have stayed there a little while longer, then you would have known that's not the case. It's far from it. I hate
'You should know the full truth before concluding that' Aiden's words kept repeating even after a long time.They both retired into their rooms, but Aria couldn't sleep. She kept remembering the time she spent with her father, their happy moments.And the sad ones, where she couldn't forget about their sad times, where she and her mother cried for the loss of him."Why did you do that dad? Why did you leave us?" She thought out loud.She got up and rummaged her closet for the old photo album, she always prefers to keep with herself.She opened the pages and remembered the time and the moments they were taken when they were still with their father.In a few, he was carrying her on his shoulders, when she was just a little girl. In one picture, he was swinging her and she was laughing.As time passed by, their happiness too increased. But then again, he decided to leave them suddenly.She sighed and touched his face with her finger
