Aria really felt bad for Rose who was abandoned by her parents just because she chose to walk away from her first relationship after knowing her boyfriend was cheating on her when she was a freshman in college 

Her boyfriend wasn't particularly rich, his family had a small business and they were Rose's family friend. When she broke up with him, he had lied to both families as Rose likes somebody else and broke up with him so that his parents don't blame him. His parents believed him and what worse was that her parents believed him too just by seeing his fake sorrowful face.

​​

They forced her to apologize to him but she turned down trying to make them understand he was the one who cheated but the argument rose and they threw her out of the house.

Rose stayed at her friend's place thinking her parents were just angry but her parents badmouthed about her to her friend's parents. That way Rose was homeless and roofless again. She rented a room for a month eating cup noodles only twice a day, working multiple part-time jobs but her parents didn't let her live in peace.

Without being able to handle it, she changed her name and shooed her parents away stating she doesn't have any relationship with them. Then she moved to university dorms, cut off many friends who were related to her ex-boyfriend, and lived like an orphan.

Her first company was Skyline, Aria knew her complete background and how she had struggled to complete her education before Aria hired her. Now Rose had Aria as her sister figure, elders as other colleagues who looked after her well. However, nobody can fulfill the place of family.

Aria many times had thought how it would be if Rose had a family who could look after her just like she had Morgan's family in her tough period. 

Aria knew that different people have different life and life stories which they have to walk by themselves passing each hurdle. 

Helping Rose to settle down on the shotgun seat, Aria firmly instructed, "Sleep, don't move a lot."

Rose promptly nodded and closed her eyes shut like an obedient daughter. Aria whispered, "Good night." She was expecting a response but the girl dozed off just like that causing her to chuckle.

If she had a brother or if there was another Morgan brother, she would really ship him with Rose. She sighed to herself and took Rose to the apartment owned by Skyline, reserved for Skyline employees.

Stumbling, swaying, mumbling Rose finally reached her bedroom, Aria was ready to leave tucking her in, Rose held her hand and suddenly started crying, "President Cooper, I don't want to be alone. Could you please be with me today?"

Rose was feeling lonely and lost so she didn't want to stay alone. If she was sober, she might not have asked Aria even if she might cry all night sitting in a corner but her drunken state let out the word she probably didn't want to say.

Aria now doubted if she fell for heartless Finn and hiding it from her or Rose might not know herself. "Alright Alright, don't cry. Look I am here... Rose, see, I am sitting right here..."

Aria wiped her face sitting next to her but Rose wasn't at the state to listen to her and cried. Probably she might have buried her feelings for a long time, she finally let it out so she was unable to stop.

Aria hugged her trying to calm her down thinking about how her parents could abandon their daughter. It was about fifteen minutes Rose was able to control herself. Aria asked, caressing her head, "Do you love Finn?"

Rose sniffled hard and responded, "I don't know."

"Then why are you crying?" Aria again asked for which Rose's response was the same, "I don't know." Aria didn't ask anything again and coaxed her to sleep gently talking to her.

...

Aria's mobile rang displaying Alan's name hence the latter tried to leave but Rose tightened her hold on her hand. Having no choice, Aria answered the call next to Rose and whispered, "Hello!"

The tone of the opposite side turned to panic, [Why are you whispering Where are you? Are you in trouble?]

Her husband wants nothing other than seeing her safe and sound, it wasn't new to her, "Honey, relax. I am in Rose's condo. She was very down and cried until now... I am thinking to stay over for tonight."

The line was silent for a few seconds. He also knew Rose's background, how alone and independently she looked after herself for so many years. He might have called her dumb or stupid to Rose but he knew she was very brave in the evil world. He reluctantly agreed to her having no heart to turn down, "Take care..."

The hesitancy, worry, disappointment in the tone were very obvious for Aria, "Love, tomorrow is weekend, I will be with you all.....ll day so be good and go to bed. Don't work overnight." She knows well he will work unnecessarily for a long time without being around her.

Alan scoffed right after her, "Blame yourself for that." Then he hung up the call leaving her all baffled. She loves his silly tantrums, no doubt in it but she wasn't with him to coax. She dropped him a message to remind him to sleep leaving his work aside.

She was tired due to the last weekday at work, so when Rose fell into a deep slumber and her clutch on her hand loosened, she badly wanted a hot shower before bed. Even though it was her first time in Rose's condo, it wasn't difficult for her to get a new set of toiletries.

After a round of calming tea, she returned to the room to be with Rose if in case she woke up in the middle of the night. Tossing and turning for half an hour more, she pinged her husband, [Are you sleeping?]

[Yeah! In the middle of dreams.]

Aria: "..." The message wasn't only instant but she felt her husband angry instead of funny. She started typing, [What are you dreaming?] Before she could click on the send button on her mobile screen, the doorbell rang.

Getting off the bed, she went to the living room thinking who could visit Rose at that time. Edgar had tried to impress her by sending expensive gifts, flowers to Rose so Aria was mentally prepared to break his head if he was standing at the door or sent something again even after hearing Rose's rejection.
