Rian and Roxy were on the lawn with their painting supplies. They were laughing when they got a glimpse of Aria running behind Alan to placate and pamper him.

Whereas the cold livid prince was haughty to get her more attention.

​​

Roxy was awestruck at the couple when Aria was pinned on the bay window.

Rian later noticed her and turned to see them as he heard. "Rian... Do we also look so pleasing?"

Rian wanted to smack her head looking at her drooling on the couple kissing but he again heard, "I feel like kissing looking at them."

Rian: "..."

He decided to have a good talk with his brother to be careful and smacked Roxy's head, "Don't even dream that I will carry an elephant baby to kiss. You better concentrate on the painting."

Roxy's lips twitched and glared at Rian.

She wanted to say that she lost nearly eight pounds as she had to avoid all junk food staying with Aria. With that Aria wakes her up at least on alternate days to send her on a jog for a total five miles.

But comparatively, Aria was fit and petite. Even though their heights were the same, she was dainty and prettier pleasing to the eyes calming the nerves.

Roxy lost her mood to paint after seeing the attractive couple kissing, she dragged Rian towards their room but had to stop hearing Ford's voice.

"Rian... "

Roxy instantly behaved like a well-bred lady and went towards Amelia while Rian went towards his grandfather.

"Hello grandfather Gray, Uncle Grayson." Roxy greeted and smiled at Amelia pointing upstairs to her.

Amelia raised her brows curiously seeing the mischievous smile.

While Rian greeted the guests, she whispered, "Brother-in-law and Arrie looked very enticing while they were kissing."

Amelia's eyes lit up but were again disappointed, "I never got a chance to see them. Rowan always took me away."

Roxy was extremely influenced by Amelia, she giggled and waited for Rian and took him away.

Rian could have stopped her but he let her have her way before they went down to their pants in broad daylight without caring they were in the Morgan mansion.

Alan reluctantly broke the kiss longing for more. He didn't let her down and sat on the daybed as they spoke.

Aria gently effaced her lipstick marks from his lips as she heard, "Was there any attack on your network yesterday?"

Aria hummed, "I guess three tried to enter the network. If one, then our network will fall anytime soon." But both had no time to upgrade it.

Alan hummed, "It's not one. Three are behind it and the chances our mobile numbers tapped are high. Don't talk important things over the calls."

Due to that they both rarely spoke on phones so Alan informed her so that other important stuff could be avoided.

Aria hummed going to his embrace.

He really wished they could live a worry-free life looking at her smile wrapping her hands around him even though she knew what situation they were in.

He kissed her crown, "Do you know Xoan West?"

Aria felt like she knew the name, "I don't know him. I must have read or heard his name somewhere."

Alan knew she wouldn't care about people who weren't concerned, "What about CEO West and President West?"

Aria many times heard about them, "That father and son of Focus International." It confirmed to Alan that her brain was still intact.

"They want you." He bluntly revealed.

Aria smiled, rubbing her forehead on his chest, "I feel sorry for them."

Alan chuckled understanding her and made her sit to face him, "One of the hackers is from Focus International..."

Aria's expression changed and cut in as her determined tone sounded, "Then I will make them regret tonight."

He loved her villainous side sounding inimical.

He pecked on her lips pinning her down. "You attack, I will keep track. We will finish smoothly and quickly."

Alan and Aria were quite the same in some of their nature. They wouldn't unnecessarily go and create fuss but they would let the opposition have the taste of their own plan landing them in a brutal situation.

They play healthy. If others were provoking them to be wicked, they were ready to show who could be the real evil.

If both really wanted to ruin each other's company after their wedding fiasco, it was a piece of cake from them but they just hurt externally so nobody knew how well Alan and Aria could play other than each other.

Aria smiled back like a little girl hearing him and pulled his cheeks, "We will do it."

She wasn't alone to protect, she had Alan supporting her endlessly.

Alan straightened his clothes and unwillingly left after planning out how they were going to handle the Focus international.

Curtis, Amelia, Rowan, Ford, and Jeremy saw Alan striding out without having any expression or a word with them.

Aria went downstairs after a minute. She bid everyone and left but she couldn't understand why Jeremy and Ford were looking happy.

She dispersed her thoughts and soon reached her office. She had lots of work to finish which she continued till the sun went down to let the moonshine in the dark sky and the lights twinkle on the streets

...

Alan too finished his work quicker and reached a high-end club which wasn't much far. He took a private room for himself, ordered drinks, and required food making himself comfortable.

...

Aria checked time and soon got ready in the bedroom of the office. After making sure how she looked, she exited and heard a confused tone.

"You... President Cooper?"

If Levi didn't know nobody entered her office, he never could have identified her as Aria. She was perfectly looking like a country bumpkin.

A naive white-collar employee.

An employee from the village side who didn't have much idea about fashion.

Her make up was so perfect that it was impossible to say her as Aria. Her natural baby pink soft lips were nude and chapped, her glossy bright skin looked dry and dull. There were freckles on her flawless smooth skin.

She was wearing framed reading glasses and formal clothes that complemented well with her disguise. Her silky long hair was just a shoulder-length and curly looking little unkempt.

One thing that looked the same was her bright mischievous eyes.

Levi desperately wanted to ask, 'Did you cut your hair?' Instead of 'Why are you disguised?'

"How do I look?" The same playful tone sounded.

Levi replied very promptly, "Hideous."

Then he was speechless seeing her smile happily.

Aria was leaving but Levi panicked and went behind her, "President Cooper, why are you leaving like this? What are you going to do?"

Aria whispered the reason to relax him but Levi wasn't convinced, "What if somebody attacks you? I'll come with you."

"Do you think anybody will identify me like this? Relax, if I need your help, I'll ping you... You should leave soon and rest too."

Levi nodded unwillingly looking at the general employee elevator door closing.

He was still worried so he quickly arranged two men to keep her safe as he couldn't go because his presence would be an indication that she was Aria Cooper.

Her presence was ignored by everyone in the elevator and public transport which Aria perfectly achieved. Five more minutes walk she reached a club.

A bodyguard stopped her at the private room and she was about to speak, a girl's voice sounded behind her.

"You... Countrywoman, why are you entering this private room?"

Aria turned to see Monroe Grayson in a beautiful bodycon multicolored sequin dress sneering at her.

Monroe had seen Alan's car near the club so she had quickly bought a dress in a nearby shopping complex and got ready before going there.

"I am here to meet President Morgan."

Monroe didn't know she was Aria and laughed scornfully, "Do you think President Morgan will like to meet people like you? Get out of here."

Then Monroe pushed her aside and entered inside. The bodyguards knew Monroe so they didn't stop.

Aria looked at bodyguards, "Are you guys sure about stopping me and getting fired?"

'That tone?'

"Young madam?"

Aria hummed but they were still hesitant. She pulled out her mobile which was on flight mode and showed the marriage certificate picture.

"We are sorry young madam." They quickly bowed in respect and apology

Aria nodded and entered inside when they opened the door for her.

Monroe had coquettishly complained to Alan saying unnecessary people were entering inside hence she stopped them.

Alan didn't bother about Monroe and saw the door open again. When his eyes met the girl's eyes, he stood up elegantly and went to her.

Monroe started blushing by thinking Alan was going near her seeing his enticing face getting nearer but he passed by her and embraced Aria lovingly before pulling her in.

Monroe: "..."

Bumpkin?

She couldn't believe Alan's taste was lowered so much after Aria.

"President Morgan, you could get a better woman for a one night stand."

She could only think of that and she felt it was reasonable for a grown-up man to have one night stands for physical desires without a girlfriend or wife.
