More Than I Needed
Ayden returns home furious, feeling the adrenaline and anger coursing through his body. As soon as he arrives at his apartment, he locks himself in his room and starts throwing everything in his path. Breaking lamps, paintings, trivial decorations - nothing significant enough to weigh him down.
"You're so empty, Ayden Emory... so empty that you ruin the only good thing in your life!" he screams in agony.He enters the bathroom and furiously smashes the mirror in front of him."You can't even control yourself, let alone your actions," he says to the shattered reflection. "You're a dirty, repulsive scum who tries to deceive others with pretty clothes... you're nothing, Ayden. You're nothing that matters."Enraged with himself and feeling miserable, he continues to break the mirror with his fists. The old self-destructive reactions resurface, the desire to injure or hit himself not even necessary. However, frustrated with himself, he ends up punching the wall, damagRelated chapters
The Millionaire´s Enigma Rest
Ayden had sent Bea to keep Arya company. She had become a careful employee and close to the young pregnant woman, so she was the right person to stay by her side. "You should go home and rest," murmurs Bea, noticing that the young future doctor has not slept as she should have. "Mr. Ayden won't mind if he doesn't see you," she says, concerned about Arya's health. "I'm fine like this," Arya assures her, but Bea doesn't believe her. "I already slept very little in the afternoon." "As you wish, but I see a tired look on your face that you can't hide," Bea remarks. Arya tightens her lips in a straight line, knowing that she is right. "I can rest in the employee break rooms here at the hospital," she finally says. "Can you stay with my mother for a couple of hours?" she asks out of courtesy, even though she knows Bea is there for that. "Of course, anything, just call me if you need anything," Bea comments to make her feel at ease. "Go rest peacefully." "Thank you, Bea," says Arya, st
The Millionaire´s Enigma Among your dreams
Ayden had never been more worried in his life than he was now. Thinking about all the wrong actions he had taken against the young woman, whether voluntary or involuntary, made him feel bad. That's why he ordered the move to be made immediately, but unfortunately the service had not been confirmed, so they would have to wait. Angry with Daniel for not confirming the service, he convinces himself that it was a good choice to have fired him."Don't you think you're being a little unfair, son?" Gerard Emory inquires of his eldest son over the phone."Why would I be, father? He has not failed me once, but several times, and on top of that, he crossed the lawyer-client boundary. What he thinks of me and what I do with my money is not something that keeps me up at night, but from there to wanting to intervene in my decision-making to screw up my existence. I don't think it's right," Ayden defends his position."Well, son, the problem is that he sees you as a friend be

" I'm glad to have found you, Mr. Specter," Ayden said, convinced that he had found the ideal lawyer. "Don't worry about your commission, I'll pay you everything on time.""I know, Mr. Emory," Gabriel Specter added, one of the best lawyers in the city. "Your reputation precedes you. I've been wanting to contact you for years, but I know you had a strong alliance with the Cheng. Will that bring any future problems?""Not at all. My dissolution with them was because they crossed the lawyer-client line, which I hope won't happen here," Ayden said, looking at him firmly.Gabriel wasn't intimidated; he was also a powerful man who knew how to move the pieces in favor of his clients. "Don't worry, Emory. As long as you don't ask me to be a participant in fraud, I'll be more than happy to work with you," he said, smiling."Okay, there's something you need to know about that," Ayden said, taking a sip of his brandy before telling him about Arya.Gabriel asked a series of questions to put him i
The Millionaire´s Enigma Love as much or more than me
Ayden knew he was failing as a future father by not providing the support Arya needed. He was failing as a son by lying to his father, hiding the truth about his relationship with Arya. As a brother, he was denying Mark the opportunity to redeem himself. And with himself, he had failed by not keeping every promise he had made to himself.During the night, Arya's mother had worsened. Her heart condition, combined with the cancer spreading throughout her body, was causing her health to deteriorate rapidly."Mr. Emory, it's best to talk to the doctor," the nurse informs him. "She's not doing well... I don't think she'll make it another day."Ayden enters Mirella's bedroom and notices she is struggling to breathe even with oxygen on."Call them immediately," he nervously asks Sebas, who is standing next to him. "And have Arya's gynecologist come.""Yes, sir," he informs him, taking the phone and calling Mirella and Arya's regular doctors.Within half an hour, everyone was there. Once Arya
The Millionaire´s Enigma Confrontation
Arya is lying on Bea's bed, in a lot of pain."I think we should inform Mr. Emory," Bruno suggests."No, not today," Arya whispers with effort. "Please, not today.""Don't worry, beautiful," says Bea. "I'll take care of you. The important thing is that you rest and recover, then you can make a decision.""Will you guys keep me informed about my mother's funeral?" the young woman asks her friends.Sam and Bruno look at each other, knowing that if she is no longer at Emory's house and now that Mrs. Mirella has passed away, they will no longer be needed."Without you there, and Mrs. Mirella gone, I don't think we'll be called again," Sam informs her, stroking his friend's forehead."Sebas and I will keep you informed," assures Bea, handing her a pain and antibiotic pill given to her by the doctor. "Take it, you need to rest, it's almost dawn and you haven't slept a wink. I need to go to Mr. Emory's house, he's going to need help. By any chance, do either of you know how to take care of b
The Millionaire´s Enigma Farewell
Arya had cried for a long time, and the boys had to call the nurse to sedate her so she could rest. In the end, Ayden sent a doctor to check on her and hired a nurse to help with milk extraction. The young woman had been having fevers from not extracting milk, and her breasts hurt, as well as the surgery. Despite feeling betrayed, the millionaire continued to pay the boys for the forty days she would be on bed rest.The funeral was scheduled for fifteen days later, so Arya could get up. According to the doctor, she had been left very bruised, probably due to the urgency of the surgery. That's why it took her a while to get back on her feet. Also, Bea had been sending things over to her house, but not everything.Suddenly, one of those days, Bea and Sebas came for her. She was to be transferred to Ayden's house."He promised he wouldn't see me again," she says."He's not in that house anymore, he left it to you so you can recover," Bea warns her and looks at the boys. "This way, you ca
The Millionaire´s Enigma You look like an angel
Five years have passed since the last time Ayden Emory saw Arya Harley. He knew she was studying abroad, but never where. She had made a separate agreement to never disclose her location to the millionaire. Checking social media was useless, she wasn't on it. Searching for her was futile, as if she had vanished like foam in the sea."Miss Edwards, you have a phone call," his assistant announces at the door. "It's from Mark Emory.""Please put him through. Close the door, Dalila, please," she kindly requests."Hey Annie!" Mark greets her when she answers."Hey, Mark, how's everything going?" she inquires while pretending to brush imaginary lint off her tight skirt under her doctor's coat.Mark didn't usually often call, but when he did, she usually answered."Here, waiting for you to tell me when you'll be in New York," he comments, hoping she'll say the same day.Annie Edwards laughs shamelessly."Nice joke," she says. "You should come here for a couple of days instead. I'm free next
The Millionaire´s Enigma Annie Edwards
"Arya..." Ayden murmurs as he sees the woman standing in front of him dressed as a doctor with blonde hair.Doctor Annie Edwards entirely ignores him to take care of the child."Aryehn, I'm Dr. Annie, do you remember me?" she asks as she approaches the child and checks his pupils.Annie Edwards doesn't want to think that the person in front of her is her son. She blocks her thoughts to be able to attend to him.Ayden hears her and thinks that maybe he is mistaken. "But it's her voice," he muses as he realizes that her hair is now completely blonde. He can't see her face directly, so he doubts that he hasn't hallucinated.Annie begins to give orders to the surrounding nurses. The paramedic informs her of what they gave him and she completes the treatment. Her hands tremble a little, Ayden is a few steps away from her, trying to see her face."Take Mr. Emory out of the room," Annie demands of one of the nurses in a low voice.He leaves what he's doing and turns to Ayden. "Excuse me, you
