It took time for everyone to get along with Lucas Cooper who was modest to all accurately knowing all love Aria and he had hurt her. The judging eyes left him edgy throughout the time and watched the three friends fight and Curtis win every time.

The repenting days had started a long back which still continued thinking how he would be living if he hadn't desired more wealth and money. Despite arranging everything for him in the villa, Alan had given him the bank card but he was afraid to use it that might divert his mind to other things again.

​​

Aria probably never can be close to Lucas as she is with Curtis but she didn't keep any hostility either. As days passed, she started to have normal conversations about health and general things. Roxy never had met him so she took the time to accept him as her grandfather and even notified Scarlett Cooper about him.

Curtis finally agreed to Amelia, Aria's pester to leave his manor in the country Y and settle in Morgan mansion which wouldn't only let them look after him but also spend his prime old age with family.

This gave ample time and reason for the three old friends to frequently hangout, brag, and curse each other.

A week later, Aria and Eva met in the Imperial hospital with their husband. Their Gynec was the same doctor so Eva pestered the doctor to give them the same day appointment every month until the doctor helplessly accepted.

Both of their health and fetus health was fine, yet the Doctor especially told Eva to control her excitement and be careful during the sensitive first trimester. Alan and Isaac personally took care of their diet without letting them wolf down oily or unhealthy foods.

Coming to Aria's work, nobody felt she had any changes in her working style. Levi and her secretaries just took extra care of her.

At Isaac's end, he was overwhelmed by the wishes and blessing from the entertainment industry fellows, his fans, and netizens. He had expected his demand might lower down as he was married but it wasn't. He started receiving more mature roles of Male lead and undoubtedly Aria kept track of movies for him like every time.

Due to all the positive development, Eva was happy she wasn't a hindrance to him in any way and started teasing Noah proudly saying she was going to steal the Goddess and Prince's baby.

Noah and Norah weren't planning a baby so their life was calm supporting Moran for his passion in the dance competition while Zara and Ceon worked when resting and roamed the country visiting numerous places and enjoying life in their own way.

--- Week 12 pregnancy of Aria ---

It was Sunday and Aria was pouting her lips cupping her face watching outside the car, "I want Ice cream." She repeated the fifth time asking Alan who turned her down again, "Nope."

"Why? You should feed me what I crave." Aria tried to coax taking the pregnancy as a reason.

Alan glanced at her and turned down again, "Nope, you are gaining weight more than usual."

Aria burst out without believing him, "Liar... I still fit in my clothes."

Alan stopped at the red light of the traffic junction and cupped her face, "You look chubby and cute."

Her anger dissipated right away smiling at him, "What will you do if I become Little Bunny again? Fluffy and round."

Alan pinched her rosy plump cheeks responding to her, "Then I will have a perfect snuggly doll."

Aria was smiling but it changed to surprise and pointed outside, "Look... Look..." Alan turned to see Levi's furrowed brows crossing the road at the zebra cross with his mother and a girl by his mother's side brightly smiling.

"Ookay..." He turned back to see her pushing her head out of the window and shout, "Levi..."

Alan: "..." 'You could have just dialed his number.' His wife started to behave like an excited kid for every little thing.

Levi's face turned blank controlling himself from cursing the situation and glared at the lady who waved at Aria excitedly. He wanted to avoid but Aria pointed to the cafe asking them to go there and she would join.

Levi's mother was a fan of Aria. She readily nodded and crossed the road to go to the cafe with Levi and his prospective girlfriend.

Alan understood without a word what he has to do when she turned to him, "Half an hour maximum. We have to visit the doctor and have a scanning appointment."

Aria was already used to naggy husband, "Alright Alright... We will talk only a little time."

Alan shook his head in resignation and took a left turn and parked to go to a cafe. His wife either will be extremely obedient or extremely cute to melt him for her work. "Who is she by the way?" He asked remembering how excited she was looking at Aria.

"Chairman Hanes's Secretary. When I and Levi had barged into Hanes Industries, Levi had met her asking about Moran. She was a kind of fangirl admiring Levi every time we went to Hanes Industries but didn't expect to see this."

Alan wrapped his hand around her shoulder taking her inside the cafe guessing what will happen next, "So storytime."

Aria nodded vigorously and added, "If there is any, then yes. Seeing Chelsea Baker excited, I am expecting at least a short story."

"President Cooper, President Morgan." Levi greeted them and sat after two. Chelsea greeted them too, "President Cooper, a long time. President Morgan."

"Aunty Brown." Aria greeted the elder lady and cued the waiter to take their orders. Mother Brown patted Aria's hand, "You look bright and pretty. Are you pregnant?"

Aria really appreciates how Levi never discloses anything to anyone, "Yes Aunty. How did you find out?"

"Really? Congratulations." Chelsea wished the couple and Mother Brown smiled looking at Aria, "Looking at you so happy, I feel you will definitely have a baby boy."

Aria only chuckled hearing her, "But I am happy seeing Chelsea with you two." She turned to Levi and stuffed his brain, "You shouldn't say no to a pregnant woman so quickly tell me the backstory."

Levi never sees her nosy for anything other than a love story and to bring a couple together so he quickly cleared the wrong air in an irritated tone, "President Cooper, she is a stranger and there is no back story."

Aria hmphed loudly and complained, "Aunty Brown if Chelsea is a stranger, wouldn't Levi mention her as Ms. Baker instead of She? He lied to me on my face."

Levi: "..."

Mother Brown chuckled hearing her and seeing Levi wordless. Chelsea who was grimly looking at Levi spoke, "President Cooper, I will tell."

Aria became all ears with Mother Brown to hear about the encounters of Levi and Chelsea.
