《When Mr.Arrogant Marries Ms.Stubborn》Chapter-17
Advertisement
I reached my cabin with a smile after Austin dropped me.
He is really a funny guy. He was constantly joking or imitating like his brother. Like how he would look at when someone don't obey him. Like someone pissed him.
I was laughing my ass off.
"Mam. Mr. Adrian is here", Stella informed me.
My face instantly glowed up in joy.
"Hey Choco", Adrian came inside the cabin waving at me.
"Hello Mr. Jelly Beans", I smiled.
Adrian is the guy I met during my first year college.
We instantly clicked. He was really a sweet guy.
Later we found that his father is working as our attorney.
After his father retirement he took his father's position.
He is a great lawyer. The way he pose himself in court is something else.
He is confident,daring, calculative. He knows his steps.
He can be manipulative sometimes. He was working at our foreign branch for two years as we faced a crisis over there.
He returned just today.
"How are you doing? You look extremely beautiful and dashing", he commented hugging me.
"I'm doing fine Adrian. I'll get straight to the point. I want Collins 75 percent of assets to be transferred to Collins first daughter Mia Collins", returning his hug I informed him.
Taking my seat I turned on my system to start working.
"That's surprising. Is something going on?", He asked catching my eyes to read me.
"Nothing is going on. I want you to do it asap. Maybe in two or three days", I said looking at him with my hands folded at table.
"I will work on it", he said sighing.
"You can work here. It will be easy for us to communicate. I'll let you know which properties should stand back", I informed him searching the file in my computer.

"That would be a beautiful sight Choco", he joked.
"I'm taken", I smirked showing my ring to him.
"What the hell?", He looked shocked, hurt and surprised.
"Later. Now get back to work", I made him work.
I didn't know the time was already past six. It's six thirty now.
We both were immersed in work.
Aaron must be pissed at me. He probably thought I ditched him.
I hurriedly asked Stella to bring some outfit to me.
After changing in bathroom I asked Adrian to drive to me to destination.
I don't want to park in light post at last minute driving.
I'm a civilized citizen. I do know my driving limits.
Mr.President should award me "the best citizen of country".
Driving to the place I saw Aaron waiting for me with a pissed look.
I don't know why Adrian hugged me.
I said bye to him and walked to Aaron.
"You must have the guts to come late babe", he hissed pulling me towards him.
It caught me surprise. My hands as a reflex moved to his chest.
I sense his heart beat thumping fast as hell like mine.
Mine because of the close proximity while him because of anger I guess.
"I'm sorry babe. I caught up with work", I whispered in his ears adjusting his tie.
How I wish to strangle him with this tie?
"Caught up with work or with your boyfriend", his sentence made me glare at him.
Ignoring my glare he smirked. I have to hold back my tongue to not to cause any scene in the party.
Does he think I'm cheating on him? Where did he get this ridiculous thought? Does he have any girlfriend outside to think like that about me?
I was totally confused.
We walked inside with him holding my waist tighter.

I wanted to scream at him. I wanted him little away from me.
His scent is making me weirder yet calming me at the same time.
"Hello Mr.Aaron", a couple in early forties came be our side greeting him.
"Hello Mr. John and Mrs. John", he greeted them back.
I don't like to come to parties. I will only attend the parties which is celebrated by my company. I will leave immediately after my speech. My father would take care of everything after that.
"And who is this lovely lady?", Mrs. John smiled at me. I smiled back.
Before I could answer myself the jerk answered me making me upset.
"She is my friend Isabella", he smiled at me face.
He is mocking me. Is he embarrassed of me to be introduced as I'm his wife?
I forced my smile at him and at the couples.
"I have to talk to you Aaron", I said after the couples left.
He nodded at me while we walked out for air.
"Why am I your friend? Are you embarrassed of me calling your wife? If you brought me here as your freaking friend then you should have brought someone else", I shouted at him.
I felt humiliated. I don't know why but it's pissing me more. I do not let anyone walk over me. I'm his wife. If he brought his wife for some party he should give me the title I have. Of course I know that we just married in name.
I do promised him we will go on our separate ways when we are alone. But outside the world he should treat me with respect.
"Why? Are you upset?", He smirked.
"Of course I am, you jerk", I hissed at him.
His face turned even redder.
"When you brought your boyfriend to the party and you hugging him wouldn't make me upset", he hissed back.
"For god sake Aaron, he is my friend. He is my legal advisor too. I was caught up with my work. I was running late. So I asked him to drive me here", I said pulling my hair out in frustration.
"Oh..", that's what his answer. But his eyes showed happiness.
That's when it clicked me.
"Are you jealous babe?", My question made his face turned red.
"What the hell? Me? Jealous? For you? No way", he shrieked like he stepped on cow dung.
"Admit babe. You are jealous. Say you are jealous", I whispered in his ears while he gripped .y waist.
"Maybe", his answer made my heart skyrocket to Mars.
We both stared at each other. Me immersing in his deep blue orbs.Then later we started laughing our ass off for no reason.
I oddly like this possessive side of him.
This jerk making me feel sweet and sour at same time.
But the voice that I least expected to hear out of all humans living in the world made me fear.
"Sir", and the last thing I expected is to Aaron acknowledge the person.
"Ms. Davis", I stood there behind Aaron trying to hide.
Don't hide yourself. For god sake you are grown up.
My hands shivered.
"Baby you are shivering", Aaron turned to my side looking worried.
"Aaron take me inside", I whispered back hiding my face in his chest.
Taking his coat he put it on me.
He dismisses Catherine takings me inside.
I badly wanted to cry.
I'm still a coward.
