Noah was sitting on the sofa, working on his tab. After he had made sure that Aria had safely reached the hotel, he had driven to his mansion in Kensington Palace Gardens. He had a mansion in London which he used every time he visited London. Though he was reluctant, he had decided to stay at his mansion. He did not want to stay in the same hotel where Aria was staying to avoid being called a stalker.

The mansion was imposing and elegant following classic Arts and Crafts design incorporating the most up-to-date construction materials and technology. It had four floors, the lower ground floor featuring an outstanding indoor pool complex, spa area, treatment room, gymnasium and cinema.

On the ground floor there was a grand hallway that featured an impressive curving staircase, which led onto a spacious and contemporary kitchen, 3 reception rooms and a dining room, all of which had doors leading onto the stunning garden. There were three bedrooms on the first floor. The master bedroom on the second floor had two private dressing rooms and two luxuriously fitted bathrooms, as well as a private terrace and balcony.

Since the mansion was huge, Noah's secretary and his assistant were also staying with him along with his guards.

"Boss, he has come." One of the guards spoke up, making Noah divert his attention from his work for a while.

"Bring him in."

A short, slim Japanese man entered the hall and gave Noah a bow.

"What do you have for me, Kaito?"

"Boss, Madam and her friends have checked into the hotel. She has also had her dinner and now she is resting in her room. This is her itinerary for tomorrow." Kaito handed Noah a sheet.

Kaito was Noah's man. He had been working for him for three years and had good connections in London. When Noah learned that Aria was going to London, he had made Kaito a member of the committee using his connections. That way he could keep Aria safe in a foreign land. If it was in his hands, he would have been the one to take care of Aria. But he knew, he had to take it slow. He was still not sure of his feelings for Aria.

"So, Aria is going sightseeing tomorrow."

"Yes Boss," Kaito replied at once.

"Hmm. Let's see. What are our plans for tomorrow, Shane?" Noah looked at his assistant, Shane, who was sitting right in front of him.

"Nothing Boss. Your schedule is clear." He squeaked out the words. How could he say he had a meeting with the shareholders at eleven in the morning? His Boss clearly had other plans in mind. If he says a thing about the meeting, that would mean angering the dragon. So, now he had to postpone the meet for another day.

"Good. You have become quite efficient. You can take a holiday along with a bonus when we return."

Noah's words immediately lifted his assistant's mood. He felt that spring had made an entry in this frosty weather. He secretly thanked Aria for coming into his Boss's life.

"Kaito, you can leave now. Remember to take care of Aria. If anything happens to her" Noah did not continue his words, but the threat was clear.

Kaito gulped hearing his words. He realized Aria was important to his Boss. So he had to make no mistakes or else his life was as good as dead.

"Yes Boss."

"Everybody be ready on time," Noah ordered and got up. He climbed the staircase to the second floor. He plopped on the bed and opened Aria's photos he had received on his phone from Ronnie. He stared at the photographs for a long while before sighing, "Wait for me Aria."

Meanwhile Aria had returned to her room after dinner. It was past ten.

'It is past ten in London. So, that means it's past midnight back home. Should I make a call or not?' Aria contemplated. She had promised to make a call to Ian, Daniel and Ivy as soon as she reached London. However, it was too late to make a call.

"But they will be worried. Let's take the risk."

She dialed Ivy's number first and as expected from the night owl, she picked it on the first ring.

"Hey Ari, have you reached London?"

"Yes Ivy. But why haven't you slept yet?"

"Ari I have a new case at hand. So, I was searching for some things about it. Anyway, how is London? Did you find any good looking men? I heard that the British are sexy."

If Noah had heard Ivy's words at that time, he would have immediately set out a revenge plan on her. Since Ivy was Aria's sister, definitely the revenge would be mild.

Aria rolled her eyes at Ivy's absurd words. "Goodnight Ivy. Take care. Don't be awake for long."

"Goodnight Ari. I hope you find a cool, good looking guy."

Aria then gave a call to Daniel which he immediately disconnected.

'Maybe he is busy. He will give me a call when he sees my missed call' She thought.

Next she gave a call to Ian.

"Hello, Aria. Have you reached London?" Ian greeted her.

"Hey Ian. Yes, I have reached safely. Are you on night duty?"

"Yes. For two days straight."

"Oh. How's everything at the hospital?"

"Everything is fine Aria. How is it in London?"

"It is good here. I haven't had the chance to explore the city yet. I'll get you something as a souvenir."

"I'll look forward to it. I hope it will be something good."

"Definitely. Goodnight Ian. I'll give you a call later." Aria responded.

"Goodnight Aria. Take care."

Aria lied on the soft bed and sighed in bliss. It was very comfortable and she felt like she was in heaven. Maybe due to the long flight or maybe the softness of the bed, Aria fell into a deep slumber at once without any care in the world. She had no idea what was waiting for her the next day and that she would have one of the most interesting days of her life.
