Livid Guardian's Endless Coddling

Eva almost punched Isla in rage but Aria stopped her and took her away passively. "Ignore."

Eva cursed them but Aria didn't say a word...

Alan picked her and dropped her both days.

Friday they got to know, Elite won the soccer semifinals and they would return by night.

Aria helped Jade with his mathematics problem which both failed to solve even after trying to solve a few times.

Alan called her waiting outside hence they stopped and went downstairs. She bid Jade and was leaving, he held her hand.

Aria turned to him in confusion and heard his unemotional tone, "Do you want me to help you with chemistry? I heard you are a little weak in that subject."

Alan who noticed them had alighted and reached them to hear Aria, "Nope. Thank you."

Alan identified the man. He held Aria's hand and released from Jade's hand.

Jade froze for less than a second before greeting him, "Alan." He also heard Aria greeting him and looked at her. "Alan!"

Jade saw her alluring smile at Alan and his bag slipped from his hand. Her pink glow seeing Alan left his heartbeats to speed up.

Alan rubbed her head lovingly and didn't miss the small changes of Jade. He asked dotingly, "Is Jade Reed your temporary mathematics teacher you are helping?"

Aria hummed, "But we couldn't solve one problem even after many tries. By the way, do you guys know each other?" She heard Jade taking Alan's first name instead of a formal greeting.

Alan nodded and asked, "Schoolmate. Do you want to solve that question? Need my help?"

Aria's smile was wider as she hummed, "Otherwise I will get mathematics problems in my dream."

Alan smiled seeing her cheeky smile. Aria took him to a classroom and asked Jade to follow who had very complex thoughts.

Jade could easily say Alan and Aria were very close by their interaction. He thought by helping her they might get close to each other but he was rejected.

Jade heard Aria explaining the methods they used to solve the problem. He silently leaned on the desk seeing two solving as they discussed.

At first try, the duo solved filling three big boards. Aria exclaimed looking at the solution, "I have a smarty fiance."

One froze. Another one smiled as he complimented back, "My genius fiancee, Shall we leave now?" It had taken them half an hour to solve it.

Aria nodded and smiled looking at Alan who took her bag, he wasn't any mighty president with her. Alan just nodded at Jade when Aria bid him.

Jade knew Alan was Aria's guardian but he didn't expect him to be her fiance. He didn't lose his hope. He thought they were together due to family.

He saw from the window when Alan kissing Aria's cheek after making her sit in the car. Her smile again made his heart skip a beat. He felt like somebody taking away what he was treasuring.

He wanted to think they were together because of the family but seeing Alan's completely different side, Seeing their affectionate frisky interaction, he was losing hope.

He took pictures of the solution written on the board before leaving feeling defeated.

Everyone had finished dinner and packed for the vacation. They were sitting in the living room when Rian entered, he wanted to announce his win but it stuck in his throat seeing Aria.

Rian's clothes were packed by Amelia hence he just had to get fresh and leave.

Amelia and Rowan looked at Rian's back and turned to Aria, "Arrie, did you guys fight? Why did he ignore us?"

Aria shook her head, "We didn't fight. He must be tired."

Yes! They didn't fight. He hit her and left without explanation.

If she goes to him doesn't that mean she was trying to be the goddess of mercy to herself and goddess of Pretention to him?

Alan raised his head from the laptop to see her pursed lips. He knew what exactly happened with Mian and why Rian was paranoid but he didn't want to increase her worry.

The five left the Morgan mansion in two cars towards the airport. Noah was dropped by his driver. Eva's Dad dropped her and left after talking with Rowan.

Isaac reached soon chatted with Amelia ignoring everyone. Alan expressionlessly sat in the lounge with his laptop. Rian was silent. Noah vividly explained about the match to Aria and Eva.

Soon it was nearing time to board, Mian, entered the lounge leaving Aria's face turn poker. Eva shot up from her seat seeing who followed Mian.

Alan who had closed his laptop noticed Eva and Aria before turning towards the two new arrivals. He got up, took his and Aria's luggage and led Aria who pulled Eva with her.

Rian's face darkened seeing the trio leave. He didn't know Isla was coming but he didn't like how Aria reacted and took Eva away.

Noah glared at Rian, "Why is Isla Turner coming? I hope you don't regret." He pulled his luggage ignoring them.

Amelia and Rowan never saw Isla and never met the two new girls hence they didn't react.

Isaac who noticed Isla wanted to puke. He was about to comment, Aria held his ear pulling him away, "How dare you ignore your investor?"

Isaac chuckled, "Wow! My investor is jealous." He coughed lightly and greeted Eva, "Hello Ms.Miller"

Eva vaguely responded as her mind was still around Mian and Isla.

Mian immediately apologized to Rian, "Rian, I'm sorry I couldn't inform you beforehand. My parents weren't agreeing with me to go alone after that incident on Wednesday hence I had to bring Isla. I hope it isn't a problem."

Amelia and Rowan heard her, "No problem. You girls can join us."

Mian sweetly smiled, "Hello Auntie! Hello Uncle. I'm Mian Walker. Rian's friend. She is Isla Turner."

Isla greeted, "Madam Morgan! Chairman Morgan!"

Amelia smiled back so as Rowan. "Let's go! It's time to board."

Both girls nodded like obedient fellas and followed them with Rian. The latter spoke, "Don't worry. We will talk with Arrie and clear her misunderstanding."

His emotionless voice and hearing Aria's name, both slightly panicked but managed to smile at Rian, "You are so kind."

Aria, Noah, and Eva were in the four-seater table facing a seat each. Alan and Isaac settled on the other two seats facing each other.

If it was an earlier time, Rian would sit with them but he didn't...

Amelia and Rowan were on the two-seater and heard Aria, "Mum, you two should rest in the room."

Isaac poked Alan hearing how Aria addressed Amelia and he whispered in low voice, "You guys are at a fast pace." Alan ignored.

Amelia pinched Aria's cheek who was kneeling on seat. "We will go when we are sleepy."

Aria hummed and smiled at Rowan who rubbed her head dotingly.

Isla and Mian clearly heard her, "White Lotus b*tch!" Mian muttered.

Isla was fuming.
