Livid Guardian's Endless Coddling

Aria got busy with filtering the employees out as Levi tightened the security and reported to her some employees who need to be reviewed.

Within two weeks, Skyline Industries headquarters took a whole new look with Levi's and his hired teammates' teamwork.

---

Alan just cared about her safety and her healthy lifestyle.

So Aria was dropped and picked up daily by him and they were having lunch in the nearest restaurants if both were free at lunchtime.

Since Skyline and the Morgan Industries headquarters distance was less than a half-mile, he was reaching her office finishing his work quickly.

"Honey, don't you think you are quite too free?" Aria asked seeing him adoring her.

"Sweetheart, you took half of the load. I have no work other than coddling my little wife. Let's go and try on our wedding outfit."

Aria was surprised, "They came?"

Alan carried her out taking her laptop.

Aria's secretaries and Levi were used to seeing Alan carrying her so their reaction wasn't special. They would be shocked if she walks on her feet instead.

Aria instructed, "Levi, I'm leaving for the day. Give me a call if anything urgent."

"You have an appointment with the VP."

Aria replied, "Reschedule."

Levi signaled with his fingers indicating 'Alright' when the elevator doors were closing. He informed the VP's secretary and continued his work for another hour.

Soon Aria and Alan reached the Bridal shop.

Alan went to change into his tux and Aria snuck in the wedding gown which Alan had ordered from an international top designer paying huge just because she had said his creations were beautiful.

All helpers looked at Aria in amusement. "President Cooper, you are so beautiful."

"President Cooper, anybody would love to marry you seeing you like this." Another helper said.

Alan entered wearing his tux to see her in a white bridal gown that had a beautiful trail but for him, nothing looked more beautiful than her smile.

All the helpers left them in privacy.

"Alan..." Aria called twirling in front of him showing the perfectly accentuated dress on her.

Alan didn't bother to respond and pulled the curtain tie-down before reaching her and pulling her to kiss.

Aria was surprised and gave it to him who passionately kissed without care of the world.

When Alan broke the kiss, Aria was flushed red. He cupped her face caressing her cheeks, "You better say 'I do' at the wedding."

Aria smiled, "Do I have any other option?"

"No, and never. You are just mine and nobody can take you away from me."

"Possessive husband." She pecked on his lips before going to change.

Looking at her back entering the changing room, 'We will be together and we must be together at any cost.' And he didn't care about anything when it comes to Aria.

Alan informed his mother to send out the wedding invitation to all guests. He wanted to let the whole world know he was with his love.

Both had dinner outside and Aria was exiting the restroom but somebody bumped into her. Aria excused before her apology and was moving ahead, that lady held her hand.

"Aria Cooper, right?"

Aria didn't give much of a reaction because she was a public figure.

That girl continued, "Are you together with President Morgan?"

"Excuse me?" Aria tried to remember her but she couldn't.

"Oh, don't tell me President Morgan didn't confess to you? I was asked to leave the date so that you could spend time with President Morgan..."

Seeing Aria's unemotional face, she spoke again, "Do you remember I had said I have a boyfriend and my family forced me..."

Aria nodded remembering it. "You lied?"

That lady hummed nonchalantly and asked again, "Are you guys together?"

Aria hummed with a smile and excused herself, 'Dumb husband, you had done too much for me.'

Alan was surprised by the sudden hug but he made use of it to take advantage of her before taking back her home.

Aria's first new venture after becoming CEO and President was to enter fashion industries. Initially, they had only retail fashion but they hadn't entered high fashion industries.

An international supermodel who was under Morgan Entertainment was signed as the brand ambassador who agreed to sign knowing the Designer Alia would be working.

Aria's other identity was Alia, a young fashion designer who had won an award at the international stage. Designer Alia's image was secret so nobody knew Aria was Designer Alia. Only those who were close to her knew her identity.

Alia had worked under a famous designer as an assistant before she made herself to the international stage under his guidance who pushed her ahead to that stage.

Alan warned her not to overwork but he didn't say anything about Skyline which was growing well.

When Alan took over Morgan Industries, in a year he had surpassed Skyline Industries. After Aria took over, other business companies started to know how they would compete with each other.

But both were in completely different fields but supporting each other.

Alan didn't attend the opening ceremony of 'Starlight Company'.

Aria was well acquainted with Finn and his family so she was a must to the ceremony. Starlight Entertainment and Morgan entertainment were competitors so others didn't join her.

Most of Finn's old acquaintances, his old flings, his friend's girlfriends, and friends were celebrities and B to C list artists who were all poached to his company. In them, five were under Morgan entertainment

When it's about business, Aria didn't care if they played well. She just didn't like underhand and dirty things against companies.

Skyline didn't have an entertainment sector and investment didn't object to the boundaries. So practically, Skyline Industries wasn't against either Morgan Industries or Starlight.

Aria was exiting the Starlight company when she went face to face with the Miley company marketing manager. Janet Miley harmlessly smiled at her.

"President Cooper... Sorry, I didn't know you were the heiress of Skyline back then. I'm sorry I was very rude to you."

Aria furrowed her brows thinking why she was meeting those date girls out of blue but she didn't give away any emotion other than nodding.

She was moving away Janet stopped irritating Aria and Levi who was giving death glare at Janet.

"At last Morgan and Skyline Industries became a business deal marriage to raise your stock price. President Cooper, you are shrewd."

Aria knew she was mocking but she smiled sweetly, "Thank you, Manager Miley. Why don't you go for touch up? I can see your wrinkles."

Levi avoided fuming Janet from rebuffing and escorted Aria safe to the car.

Levi contemplated before speaking as he drove, "President Cooper, I had received a few investigation reports of your father's accident."

Aria had diverted her investigation team to Levi so hearing 'I had' she turned livid, "Levi, when were you planning to tell me that?"

Seeing Levi hesitant who was always direct to her made her realize something's off.
