Immediately Aiden answered the call he heard his mother's energetic voice" Hello Aiden, how are you and how's your sister doing? It's been long, you don't even call to check up on your mother and I am definitely not happy with you".
Aiden chuckled" please mom forgive your son this last time, I was really busy with work but I was planning on calling you today, he said sounding apologetic"Alright son I have forgiven you, go and sin no more, she said and both of them burst into laughter.After they were done laughing, Maria spoke from the other side of the phone" son it's been two years and I haven't seen neither you nor Emily am missing you both I want to come to Guildford, she said with a bit of sadness in her voice ".Aiden sighed and responded " I know Mom but I need little time to be stable enough. You know I applied for a job in Vuporental Company. It's a very big company here and if I get the Job which I believe I will get, I will definitely bring you here, just have a little patient mom".And another thing the company is rumored to be owned by one of Ares Council Executives. Immediately the name Ares was mentioned and there was silence on the other end of the phone. Mom are you still there hello '' Aiden called out.Am still here Aiden please be safe I don't want anyone to take you away from me please" she said '' . Aiden was confused for a moment what she mean by that. The way she sounded looks like she's afraid of losing him to someone else.He just waved the thought away and thought that she must be worried about his safety" don't worry mom I will take care of myself and Emily as well.Maria sent her regards to Ethan and ended the call.After the call ended Aiden made a phone call to make arrangements for the place his planning to propose to Stacy, since she decided to not celebrate her birthday although Aiden was surprised though but that's her decision. Her plan is for Aiden to come to pick her up at her house in the evening after work to a restaurant to cut her cake and have a nice dinner and also spend the evening together.But Aiden wants to surprise her. His planning on visiting her in the afternoon to pick her up and take her to the nice place he has decorated for her, and for them to have a nice meal and propose to her.It will really cost him alot but it's all worth it. Thinking about his baby growing inside of Stacy brought a huge smile to his face. After he has made the arrangements he went back to work.Whereas in Ares Empire Mansion he and his Council were having a meeting.Ares I have information for you " said Robert, one of Ares executives.Ares looked at him" What information do you have Robert speak to us". Robert continued " It's about George. I just found out that he does really have a son who is his successor. The interesting part is that his son has been living here in Guildford but not one has ever seen him or even know anything about him. Well no one was surprised to hear that George has a child who is his successor, but what amazed them was the fact that his son has been in Guildford all this year and they could not discover who he is.Unlike Ares who is married and have a family George never got married even now that he is in his fifties almost the same age with Ares.The woman that George ever loved and still loves was Deris, who eventually got married to his nemesis Ares.Ares and George loved the same woman but unfortunately for George, Deris loved Ares. The love triangle then was a complicated one. Both of them really fought hard for the woman they loved but eventually only one person won the fight.I can't believe that George Really raised his son here in Guildford, " Lyter said, smiling like someone who is about to win a war.A smile appeared on Ares face and he faced his Council " with this information that we have concerning George son we can figure out who he is, He can be anybody. James nodded his head and gave his opinion" if the media hears about his identity it will definitely be a blow to George”.But there is a problem, Armstrong said, suddenly drawing everyone's attention.Armstrong is actually the youngest male executive in Ares Council, about the same age as Aiden and Ethan, his the son of James .Go on Armstrong what's the problem ? " Ares asked.Armstrong sighed and continued " what if George finds out that the real heir of this empire is not within our reach.We don't even know where he is, including your son Robert. After the Chaos that happened Ten years ago between us and George empire, you gave them away Ares so they won't be killed.“Now we don't even know where they are but we have been hoping that they will return but it's been Ten years now, they are my best friends will they ever return " he asked with so much sadness in his face.The atmosphere suddenly changed and Deris' face turned pale. It's been Ten years and she has not seen or heard anything about her son.Ares sighed and responded " Armstrong we all know about that and there is no way George is going to find out because very soon we will have them here I promise. I can feel that my son is here in Guildford I know".Deris looked at him dumbfounded" what are you talking about Ares. You promised Dibu and Don that you will never try to find out where they are for the sake of their families safety. so that George won't find out anything suspicious and locate them. And they said when the time is right they will send them back to where they belong, I was there Ares.Ares smiled and stood up from his seat and placed his hands on the giant table " you are right Deris but there is something I didn't tell you all.Deris my dear we both made a deal, i will never look for them and my part of the deal was that if our son crosses twenty four years he must return to Guildford we're he belonged then Rafael, Roberts son will handle the rest, because our son is not aware of who he is anymore, " Ares said the last part with a little bit of sadness on his voice". Wait a minute Ares, Aria interrupted drawing everyone's attention. Aria is the third female member in Ares council, outside Deris, and Sienna who is currently absent, Aria, Sienna and Armstrong are the youngest members in Ares executives. Aria continued " Ares since I just became twenty four and since his a few years older than me, that means that he has already passed twenty four and if he has already passed twenty four, according to what you've just said, that means that they are already in Guildford now". immediately Aria finished saying her observation, everyone else thought what she said made sense. you are right Aria," Deris said hoping
It was finally Stacy's birthday and Aiden was really happy thinking about his proposal to Stacy. He has already dressed up Putting on a blue suit with a white shirt looking really handsome. He was lost in thought thinking about what Stacy's reaction would be , though she would be surprised to see him because he promised to come in the evening and not in the morning. Ethan's voice pulled him out of his thoughts" look man am not really happy with the fact that you forced me to take a day off to accompany you to propose to Stacy". "Me too Aiden, why should we accompany you when you are the only one proposing?"Emily asked feeling slightly annoyed. Aiden sighed and looked at her" Emily you guys need to be there for me. I have never proposed to a girl before. Please, I need all your support. Look at my suit. I spent a lot of money on it, even the preparation. "Fine, Aiden am going with you if that is what you want" Emily agreed. Aiden smiled and faced Ethan waiting for his response.
"what are you talking about Stacy?, you were the one who told me that you were pregnant with our baby" Aiden questioned her. Stacy's mind was in choas. She looked at Jaden for help but it's seems even him was waiting for her explanation. She knew that at this point she had to lie to save her chances of been with Jaden. She faked a cry" what are you saying Aiden when did i ever say that ?, Jaden is the only man in my life. Why are you trying to ruin my life?", she asked. I know you told me that you love me the day you brought a package for me but I clearly told you that I don't like you and I have a boyfriend. Aiden was dumbfounded. What did Stacy just say, why is she lying?. He has never pressured Stacy to do anything against her will, she accepted to date him willingly. Wait what if what Gary told him about Stacy was actually true. Has Stacy been playing him all this while?. Jaden yell! brought him out of his thoughts. Throw this people out of here I don't want to see any of the
Aiden was drinking his last bottle of alcohol. Since he arrived at this bar he has received numerous messages from Emily and Ethan showing how worried they are, he had to message them back to assure them that's his okay and that he will be fine. He just finished the last bottle and was about to stand up when something hit his head and he started feeling dizzy. He could feel that he was being carried by someone but he was too drunk to do anything. Slowly his sight became blurry then everything went blank. Piston smiled facing seeing the drunk man in front of him.’’ Good job ‘Mark’ I will take it from here now, you can leave’’ he said, giving him a bundle of cash. Mark happily accepted the money’’ if you encounter any problem just call me , he said and left’’ Piston carried Aiden and sat him down on a chair and quickly injected something into his body. After he was done injecting him he carried him and Stephanie's room and threw him on the floor , he opened the door with the spare k
Stephanie was so frightened. Never in her life has she seen her Grandfather looked at her with so much anger and disappointment” Grandfather I can explain it's not what you think”, she said trying to explain. Lawrence stared at his Granddaughter with disappointment. When it was time for the Business meeting he was surprised when he saw that she had not arrived because he knows that she does not joke with anything concerning the company. She has been planning for this Deal for a long time so he knows that there is no way she's going to blow it away. Luckily Piston came back on time from the trip he took to Italy to handle the deal, if not they would have lost the deal. When she didn't return yesterday he was so scared that something had happened to her, even her parents were worried. No one knew the Hotel she was in and she was not picking her calls. When he finally got the name of the Hotel she lodged at, He immediately called and was informed that Stephanie has not stepped out of h
After Stephanie got home she was scolded by her mom and Dad, they were very disappointed with her especially her mom” What have you done Stephanie! ?”, Gorgina asked, shouting. Stephanie started crying” Am sorry Mom, i don't know how it happened, she responded while crying. She faced her Dad '' please dad believe me, i don't know how it happened. I will never do something like that, she said to her dad”. Tears continued to run down her cheeks when her father gave her a look that shows that he was very disappointed in her. Jeffery looked at his daughter with disappointment. He could not believe it when Piston told him what happened, he has always known Stephanie to be dedicated to the business so missing the meeting for a very important project was just unbelievable. Piston was just watching everything that was happening. He felt delighted that his plan was working, though he felt a little bit guilty that Stephanie had a one night stand with a stranger but that did not stop him from
Aiden was flabbergasted to hear what the man had just said” What did you just say?”, he asked. Maria sighed and looked at him” Aiden there is something you need to know, she said in a low voice while avoiding his eyes. Aiden was getting inpatient” What is going on Mom and who is this man? he asked, looking at the man. His Ethan’s father, she responded. “What are you talking about? Ethan's father is dead,” he explained. What's going on? I don't…. He could not finish his statement because Maria interrupted him. I and Don are not your biological parents Aiden, she said in a low voice with moist eyes. Aiden felt weak in the knees, this was too much for him to handle. Ethan patted his shoulder” It's true man you are Ares's son, the heir of his empire”, he said. Aiden faced him” You were aware of my real identity all this while and you didn't tell me!” he yelled while clenching his fist. Ethan sighed” am sorry bro, we did that to protect you from George, “he said in a low voice. “
Aiden was seated in the car lost in thought. He was thinking of the new life he was about to face, he just can’t believe that the Almighty Ares was his father. He thought of his Biological Mother and had a mixed feeling, some part of him was excited to meet her while another part of him was feeling strange. He has always known Maria to be his Mother, though he can not remember the early stage of his life but he wishes that he still shares a bond with her. Aiden was still lost in thought when the Car’s engine ignition stopped, signifying that they had gotten to their destination. Ethan came back from the Car and went to open the Door for Aiden. It was after the door was open that he came back to his senses. Ethan smiled when Aiden came down from the Car” Welcome home Boss”, he said and bowed his head. “Boss' ' Aiden repeated the word and it sounded strange to his hearing. He has never been someone's Boss before for as long as he can remember, and now his best friend is calling
