Livid Guardian's Endless Coddling

Chapter 75: Beloved!

The first reason was looking at Alan in a maroon color pullover, trendy jacket, and jeans. The second was seeing his smile. The third was seeing his various expressions. The fourth was Alan's wounded hand around Aria's shoulder. The fifth was Aria hitting Alan and the latter didn't even get angry. They could sit and list more all day.

They doubted if the entered man was President Morgan or his replica.

Aria was welcomed by Isaac who was waiting for them. "Hey Superstar!" She went towards the couch where Isaac threw the magazine and Alan went towards his desk.

"Hey, Beautiful! How about lunch today? I really want to steal you away." Isaac glared at Alan for stealing his cutie Goddess, "Is he again going on date with somebody?"

Aria realized Alan hadn't told him about them. She hummed. "Isn't my fate cruel? (sigh)"

Isaac hummed feeling bad for her, "Shall I take you out somewhere? Let him go alone and meet the girl."

Aria nodded, "Ask him."

Alan who heard them, saw Isaac going to him in the grim face, "Alan, stop torturing Aria. If you want, you go on date. I will take Aria out."

Alan glanced at Aria who was controlling her smile. "Ask your Investor who is my date."

Isaac was vexed, "How does that matter?" He turned to Aria, "Aria, Who is she?"

Aria nonchalantly replied, "Your investor."

He nodded and turned back to Alan, "I asked. Now I will... My investor?... Aria is your date?" Nobody they mention as his investor other than Aria.

Alan didn't respond. Aria who had reached them patted on his shoulder, "Not bad. You are sharp."

Isaac digested what he got to know before he could open his mouth, "Alan, you said you will confess Aria after her birthday."

It was Aria's turn to be stunned.

She didn't expect Amelia and Rowan to plan about dates. She didn't expect Rian to be so very chilled about them. She never thought Isaac knew about Alan and what he had planned.

Alan moved her chin up to close her mouth. Aria moved his hand away seeing him purse his lips to control laughing at her.

"President Morgan, Go and complete your meeting. I'm not coming with you."

She abandoned him to know about him.

She held Isaac's jacket and pulled him towards the couch. Isaac wasn't sure what was going on. He followed her in perplex and sat down.

"Isaac, now tell me from beginning to end what you know about. Miss a single detail, I will sell you off."

Isaac was in dilemma and asked cautiously, "Why are you on a date with him?"

Aria said straightaway, "He confessed me."

Isaac breathed a sigh of relief. He almost thought he let out Alan's secret. Later Isaac told her everything he knew about Alan related to her.

Aria heard everything intently from the beginning to the end which also made her understand Alan rather better.

Alan went alone to the meeting and finished. When he returned, Isaac was telling Aria about Alan's school stories.

"... Everyone thought he would say yes seeing her announce in front of everyone but he had just walked away throwing the banquet to bin wiping his hand with a tissue. He didn't even turn when she was crying."

"Such a heartless man." Aria said and glanced at Alan who was going towards them.

"Ms. Heartless, let's go for lunch." He pulled her up keeping the cushion aside from her lap.

"Come on" Aria called Isaac as she went with Alan.

In the elevator, Aria saw Isaac angrily staring at Alan who didn't care to ask him for lunch.

A mischievous glint flashed in her eyes. She patted his arm, "Don't worry! I will not take your wifey away. We can share him happily..."

Alan's lips twitched and he remembered what he had told Eva.

Isaac was baffled before composing hearing her chuckle looking at both men's faces. "Sure! My wife's half salary belongs to me. You can keep him all days, I will not disturb you guys..."

He continued to offer as they went to the nearest restaurant by walk.

Aria was laughing at his dramatics and spoke to him during lunch. Isaac also wished to join in their weekend trip which Aria agreed instantly.

After lunch, Isaac left and Alan finished some work before taking Aria out.

They just walked around before going for dinner near the riverside restaurant. Later both watched the musical water fountain till dark.

Aria was sitting on the car bonnet eating her icecream when Alan asked, "Did My little President like our first date?"

Aria bobbed her head and gave a sweet smile before continuing to eat.

Alan's lips tilted up knowing she liked and took her ice cream before feeding her as they spoke...

Aria was asleep in the car by the time they reached the Morgan mansion around half-past twelve. Alan didn't know whether her smile was because of their day or she was dreaming, still, his lips curled up looking at her.

He carried her to her room asking her to sleep when she woke up. After tucking her in and making sure she was sleeping, he went to his room.

He never thought just talking and strolling could also make one happy.

One who always went to bed tiring himself at work had a smile going to bed from the previous day. He didn't miss to notice those changes either.

----

The next day was Sunday ditch, Aria informed the maid that she won't be going down for breakfast and she was sleeping a little longer.

Rian did the same but Aria was woken up by Alan after his breakfast.

She wasn't woken up by kisses or compliments or concerned filled words or coax.

He chided her. "I didn't know you are so lazy and dirty. Do you remember when you took a bath? Do you remember brushing your teeth yesterday night? Ms.President, for your kind information, you didn't bathe or brush yesterday night. Will you wake up or shall I throw you in the bathtub?"

Aria's eyes were wide open leaning on the headrest. "Do I have to teach you how to wake me up? Who wakes up their... ..."

Alan saw her darting eyes and poked in to know whether she would say ward or girlfriend or something else, "Their...?"

"Beloved!" She stuck her tongue out and giggled.

Alan was greatly impressed by her choice of the word. He pulled her and kissed her on the cheek making her go pink, "I will wake you up like this."

Aria wasn't sure what to tell and escaped to the bathroom. She wasn't expecting a kiss, she thought to teach him how to coax.

Amelia who was eavesdropping from the beginning coughed lightly near the door to get Alan's attention.

Alan glanced at her with an indifferent face and made Aria's bed as he heard Amelia.

"I thought you don't know anything but it seems like you are better than your father. Awww it was so cute... If you want tips, come to me. Now I have to teach your father first."

She left adoring what she saw just now.
