Livid Guardian's Endless Coddling

Chapter 55: Don't touch me

Alan dropped Aria to school and picked from school on Monday.

Noah and Rian returned to B city in the early morning of Tuesday winning the quarterfinals and semi-finals was after two weeks.

Rowan and Amelia informed them that they would decide after a week about whether to stay with Old master Morgan or return. Until they return, Alan stayed in the Morgan mansion and there was no date arranged until Amelia would return.

Their days were passing joyfully but ruined on Friday.

Aria was in the classroom when she was called to the Principal office.

She thought that Isla turner shouldn't be there to cling on to her apologizing for offending Alan who canceled all her advertisements and replaced her in all her coming movies making her drop down below to B grade actress.

Her manager was trying her best to get some work to Isla but nothing worked out. Isla hadn't attended school after that day taking sick leave.

Aria passed by the corridor to see two muscular middle-aged men having belly and looked too rough and the cigarette smell made her frown.

She couldn't understand why such people were present outside the Principal office. She entered inside after a knock to see a grey-haired man sitting opposite to the Principal facing his back against the door.

Her breath twitched hoping he shouldn't be the one who she was thinking. She clenched her fist tight and greeted the Principal, "Principal"

The principal looked at Aria with a smile which she couldn't understand why he was happy. "Aria, get in. Mr.Cooper! Here is your granddaughter."

Aria's breath turned shallow and retracted back hearing 'Mr. Cooper' and 'Granddaughter'

The Principal seemed not to notice her changes.

Old master Cooper turned around to see Aria and smiled sweetly, "My lovely granddaughter! Look at you all grown up... I'm sorry I couldn't be there for you when you lost your father."

He stood up to go near her but Aria retracted back trembling, her teeth started to chatter and eyes filled up seeing him walking towards her.

The principal thought she was too emotional to see her only family and started to praise Old master Cooper. "Aria, your grandfather is sponsoring all students excursion this year. You have a very kind-hearted Grandfather. He missed you all... these... years"

The Principal's eyes became wide open looking at Aria holding a vase to stop her grandfather from going near her. He could see her trembling hands and pouring tears. He instantly felt something amiss and called security on the landline.

Aria tried to say, 'Stay away' but the words didn't come out. She took the glass vase in both hands pointing at the man and retreating back to the exit.

Old master Cooper smirked and continued his sweet talk, "I know my darling, you missed me and you are angry on me. See, I'm here for you. I will never leave you again so stop crying. Come to me, be good, come here..."

Aria who reached the door was about to run away, Old master Cooper shouted hoarsely, "Stop her."

The two men who were outside held her arms harshly which made Aria start to yell, "Leave me... leave me... I don't want to go with you. Leave me... Let me go, I will not come with you..."

She tried her all to escape but two men held her in the air making her cry louder and helpless.

Her grandfather was alive or not was unknown to her. Even if he was the only one left in her whole family excluding relatives, the least she wanted in her life was her grandfather.

Her past with him was worse than a nightmare to her.

Six years back, her father had told her that Old master Cooper wouldn't meet her anymore but...

After that experience, she had no confidence and was fear-filled. Her father took a long time to make her trust people. That's when he introduced Aerial Hammock to her to divert her mind and learn it.

How much ever it gave her confidence, Her past started to flash again making her lose all the hopes by looking at her grandfather.

Old master Cooper wasn't there to meet his granddaughter because he wasn't missing her or cared for her. He was a man who didn't care that she was his own granddaughter who was a very young and guileless girl when he cruelly used his evil mind to get what he wanted.

She numerous times got her past events to repeat in her dreams but she never thought he would actually return at a time when she didn't have her father.

Just anybody couldn't enter the school but he used Skyline Industries and Cooper as his identity and got all the information. After he impressed the school principal with a big cheque he easily got her to his hands.

Old master Cooper had tried to get hold of her from a few days but she never exited the school main gates on feet. She was picked and dropped in cars.

The last time when he saw her, she was a chubby, short, cute little girl who always believed him whatever he was saying anything and blindly followed him. But she had changed to a beautiful young lady which made him surprised and he didn't expect her to remember the past and start crying.

Given her state of being alone, he thought she would go to him, forgetting the past as he was the only one she had as a family.

He knew if he misses this chance, then it would become difficult to even reach her. So he tried to coax her.

"Arrie! why are you running away from your grandfather? You know I don't have anybody other than you. Don't you know how much your grandfather loves you? How can you run away from me? Come, we will sit and talk. These will not do anything to you if you are obedient. Come to me, come... come..."

Aria saw two security coming and thought she could go and lowered her cries. But it didn't go as she wanted.

Those two muscular men kicked the security who held their stomach groaning on the floor.

She started sobbing, 'Find a way out of the problem instead of getting worked up.' She remembered her father say it when she was learning about computers and software.

She stopped struggling which made the two men slowly release her and her grandfather pointed her inside the principal office where the principal's back was wet looking at what was happening.

The principal had called Emma and instructed her to call Alan in a very low voice for not to offend three men.

Aria avoided her grandfather's touch and hold as she entered the office room. She was trembling very badly and tripped at the edge of the couch and fell down.

When her grandfather tried to hold her, she cried loudly and crawled away, "Don't touch me... stay away... Don't come to me..."

"Okay okay... Look at your clumsiness, you are still the same. Get up from the floor."
