The Millionaire´s Enigma Breathe In... Breathe Out...
The child fell asleep in Arya's arms that night. She didn't have to tell him a bedtime story, but instead, she shared the story of her life. Ayden had told him that he had hurt his mommy, and that's why she left. He never told him the why, the how, or the when. Those were things that they, as adults, would resolve in due time."You need to rest," Ayden comments, noticing her discomfort. "Let me help you settle him, and you also need to talk to Robín.""You're right..." she gets up slowly and leaves the bed as Ayden tucks in their son and covers him.Arya walks to the exit and takes her phone out of her bag. She finds Robín's number on the back of her email and calls him."Hey, are you still alive?" she asks when he answers."Still kicking! Are you coming to sleep tonight or has that millionaire of yours kidnapped you?" he jokes. In the background, the sound of a movie can be heard."I'll tell you tomorrow. I just called to let you know I'll pick you up at nine, okay?" she explains."A

The Millionaire´s Enigma Warnings
Doctor Evans, known as Robin to Arya, approaches to inform them that their little son is now stable. Just hearing it, the doctor embraces Ayden again and breaks into tears. She feels her soul returning to her body and the fear dissipating."Soon, you'll be able to see him," she assures, still wearing her civilian clothes under an improvised surgical gown."Thank you, Robin!" Arya expresses and hugs him warmly before letting go. "Aryehn's teacher said he had ice cream and was running around afterward.""Uh... precisely the recommendations you asked him not to follow," he comments. "I think you should talk to the school or have a shadow teacher assigned just to watch over him.""We'll see," Ayden informs. "It's too early to draw conclusions.""I'm sorry, you're right," Robin says."Doctor Evans, it's ready now," a nurse announces."Let's go," he invites the Emorys and Arya.As they walk in, the young doctor can see how the other physicians regard them as intruders, even Evans' reaction
The Millionaire´s Enigma Insults
All the Emory’s, along with the additions - Arya, Robin, Sebas, and Bea - sit at the table. It's an unusual event, so to speak.Aryehn ate a little and then fell asleep in Arya's arms. She didn't want to let him go for a single moment; every moment with her son was precious. Even if her arms and back hurt from the weight, it was worth every minute.The conversation was fairly trivial until Ayden received a call that took him away from the table."I didn't know your return was so formal," Mark sneers with annoyance. "Look at you, all motherly... just be careful not to seem too...," he pauses, searching for the right word, "...needy for money. You know, the press can make it look like you're only here for my brother's millions."Silence falls in the room; Arya feels offended due to her background.Gerard Emory is about to speak when Arya interrupts him."Just because you've always depended on your father, even to get a spot in a hospital, doesn't mean that's my case," Arya clarifies wit
The Millionaire´s Enigma Sneaking Around
The kiss grows deeper as they progress. Ayden's hands travel down Arya's back. He knows he desires her, but he doesn't know how to handle that desire.

He's afraid of doing or saying something he shouldn't.However, Arya has waited for this moment for a long time. She wants him, she desires him. Holding his face, she pulls him closer, hoping he will kiss her more, kiss her neck and body. But then the ringtone of a call interrupts them.Ayden feels relief, and Arya is annoyed. It's clear that she's always the one who wants more, and he's the one who hesitates.He gets up and answers the call. When he realizes who it is, his displeasure is evident. He hangs up and turns his attention back to Arya, who is already getting ready to sleep. As she does every night, she arranges the pillows in between them to make Ayden feel safe.She trusts him, believes that little by little, she wi

Four and a half years earlier"I don't want anyone near my son," Ayden tells his father."If you had listened to me, none of this would be happening," Gerard scolds his son. "If you and Arya were married now, she might not have left.""But understand that it's not your decision who comes or goes from my life!" he asserts with a frustrated look.Gerard had cornered him at a moment of weakness."My grandson needs a mother. The warmth of a woman is always good for a man," he resolves aloud.Ayden, who had once been affected by his father's mantra, doesn't want the same to happen to him."I don't care what you think. You wanted descendants, now you have them," objects Ayden Emory, the millionaire who, unable to contradict his father, has acquiesced to his wishes.Gerard bursts into a self-satisfied laugh. He enjoys feeling that he has power over his children. Ayden, noticing his father's arrogance, leaves his office angrily.All day he had meditated on what the Emory patriarch had propose

The Millionaire´s Enigma Forgiveness
Present TimeAyden Emory watched Arya attentively. He knew he had messed up since he left home in the middle of the night without giving any further explanations.Arya stood before him, looking at him expectantly, waiting for a logical explanation for his erratic behavior. After a few minutes passed without him saying anything, Arya started to worry."Fine, you can't be reasoned with, I see you're still the same," she declared and walked away.Ayden stood up with the clear intention of going after her, but the ringing of his office phone stopped him. His assistant knew not to interrupt him unless it was important. Which meant it was.He picked up the phone."Mr. Emory, your father is calling on line four, he says it's urgent," Katty informed him."Okay, thank you. Please call John and ask him to stop Arya," he explained and then hung up to take his father's call. "What's going on?""Bob called me very angry," his father informed him.
