Chapter 28
The boardroom was blossoming with opinions as I sat in the middle with loose clothing to hide my baby bump.
“Madam, this is unbelievable!”
A file was angrily thrown on the desk.
[LEGAL NOTICE AVALON ENTERPRISES IS LEGALLY SUING BLUE STONE ENTERPRISES FOR STEALING TRADE COLLUDING WITH JULIA LEST
SECRETS AND
That was not it, along with the legal notice was an
n invitation.
[XAVIER: I want to meet you tomorrow Aria, please wear this beautiful dress and come at Marionette Hotel, the place where our differences started, I will end them there
“Madam Xavier Stone is trying to take advantage of our weakness!)
He knows that Master Killian is not present in the country and wants to make you come out and clarify your relationship while sending this notice- he is clearly threatening to frame our company if you did not act according to his wishes!” one of the investors said furiously, id not go at making the other chime in..
“He is trying to sabotage your relationship with Mr.Gray and also make our brand fall by gaining sympathy. Madam you should not all, god knows what kind of evil plot he has hatched!”
My nails topped against her glass of water as I could resonate with the anger in the boardroom.
“No
The room went quiet.
“killion is not home yet and at this time it is difficult to quash the rumors…” I said coolly. “Please listen to me and let me handle this by the time he comes home…I know Xavier well, he does not cares about morality when he is obsessed with something but I will not let him ruin my husband’s empire which he created with his sweat and blood.”
The investors looks like they wanted to refuse before sighing.
“We will follow your orders madam.”X
The very next day I returned to the place where Xavier chose Julia and his child hosting a gender reveal party. Came back to the place where our photos were burnt and Xavier did not care an ounce of my feelings but this time the hotel was only like a memory of past which did not mattered at all.
With a protective hand on my belly, I caressed my children before removing the arm and entering with a flowing dress to hide my bump. Xavier stood by the window, trying to look calm and composed yet his slightly trembling fingers gave away what he felt!!
“Arial” he was ecstatic to see me and thus quickly pulled out a chair like a love sick man, surprised to see that I would actually come.X Instead of taking the seat I pulled a chair and sut across from him making him freeze before he regained his composure. “Aria,baby there wasn’t even a single day where i had not remembered you-“}
“Let’s skip the details of how you missed me Mr.Stone. You know very well that I did not came because it was my wish but because of you threatening með
“Aria please…I am not here as Avalon’s CEO. It was my only way to get to meet you with such a tight security..” he said carefully was afraid to displease me.X
“I am here because I want to apologise, to see you and once again and beg for forgiveness, I want to atone for
“And I am here to give you this…“)
my sins…”
Xavier hesitantly he pulled out a folder filled with our reprinted photos that burned in the fire before clapping his hand twice.
y as if he
As if on cue, the entire room was lightened with fairy lights decorated on bif framed photos of our time together with the same teddy that was burned to ashes restored into its original condition.
“Come back baby”
“It is not possible. I said coldly for Xavier to interrupt me with hopeful eyes.
“I don’t expect forgiveness so soon Aria,” he said quickly. “Let us take our time to understand each other again, to meet and go on dates to love again
I laughed at the sheer audacity”
“Its impossible!”
“I know you are pregnant. The words made me clench my fists as I looked at Xavier in rage.
“What did you say?”
“I know you are pregnant with twins Aria, and believe me I will take b both children as mine. A daughter and a son that is right?” I looked at Xavier completely taken aback when he said the things only known to me and Killion.
