No. No. No. No Everything about this sounded wrong. It sounded like it was going to cause even more trouble than expected. Getting married to Katherine was huge. It was going to thwart his plans with his mystery woman, Hope was literally going to hate him. And not to forget that Melissa had previously asked him to marry her and he said no. How would she feel hearing that he got married to another woman? Melissa helped him and she was nothing but nice to him. And she really seemed desperate to marry him — she really needed it. Katherine just wanted to marry him for selfish reasons. He didn't know the exact selfish reason but he knew that it couldn't be compared to whatever it was that Melissa wanted desperately. Was he simply going to give in to Katherine? Aiden furrowed his brow, "Marry her? Are you serious, Gabriel?"Gabriel leaned forward, a serious look in his eyes. "Aiden, think about it. She's rich, influential, and this could work to your advantage. We make it a high-prof

Later that day, Mr. Buckley, one of Aiden's drivers, entered Aiden's office with a customary greeting. "Good afternoon, sir. I'm ready to pick up Miss Hope."Aiden looked up from his desk, a thoughtful expression on his face. "Actually, Mr. Buckley, I appreciate it, but I'll be picking up Hope myself today. You can take a break."Mr. Buckley nodded, understanding the change of plans. "Of course, sir. If you need anything else, just let me know."Aiden offered a grateful smile. "Thank you, Mr. Buckley. I'll reach out if I need anything. Enjoy your break." With that, Aiden prepared to leave his office, eager to spend some quality time with his daughter.-:-In about thirty minutes, Aiden pulled up in front of Hope's school, waiting in his car as he glanced at his watch. The school bell rang, signaling the end of the day. Soon, Hope emerged from the school gates, a radiant smile on her face. However, to Aiden's surprise, a group of her classmates followed closely behind her.As Hope app

Kierra's eyes widened. "A date?" she questioned, momentarily forgetting the performance. Aiden's grin widened as he nodded, his eyes locked onto hers. "Yeah, I've been thinking about it. I really want to take you on a date."Her cheeks flushed with a subtle blush as a genuine smile graced her lips. "That's sweet, Aiden, but my boss will get mad if I leave early."Aiden's expression shifted, a hint of amusement in his eyes. "Don't worry about your boss. I'll take care of it," he reassured, a subtle scoff accompanying his words.She chuckled nervously, "I appreciate the offer, but it's not that simple. My boss doesn't just let people leave early."Aiden, undeterred, offered a more convincing suggestion. "Tell you what, I'll make it worth your boss's while. I'll pay off any inconvenience caused. Consider it an early evening for a good cause."Her eyebrows arched, "You'd do that?"His smile held a promise as he nodded. "Absolutely. What do you say?"Kierra, caught in the unexpected propos

The sleek black car pulled up gracefully in front of the restaurant. Aiden stepped out first, extending his hand to assist Kierra as she gracefully exited the car. As they entered, a well-dressed maître d' welcomed them with a polite smile. "Good evening, sir, madam. Welcome to Le Luxe Exclant. May I inquire under whose name the reservation is?"Aiden responded smoothly, "It's under Aiden Parker."The maître d' checked his reservation list, confirming their booking. "Ah, Mr. Parker. Right this way, please." He led them through the elegant dining area, guiding them to a secluded table adorned with fine linen and delicate silverware.The ambiance was sophisticated, with soft lighting and a live piano melody playing in the background. Aiden graciously pulled out the chair for Kierra, ensuring she was comfortably seated before taking his own place.

CHAPTER FIFTY–FIVEThe next day, Melissa went to the cafe Nathan had suggested for their meeting. As she entered, she quickly spotted him already seated, a smug smile playing on his lips. She approached and took a seat across from him, "Good day." She greeted. Nathan's eyes lingered on her, and he couldn't help but comment, "Good day." His smirk broadened, "You look beautiful, Melissa. Although, I had hoped for something a bit more revealing."Her eyebrow arched in annoyance. "You're a sick perv, Nathan. Cut to the chase. Why did you call me here?"Nathan chuckled, brushing off her comment. "Always direct, Melissa. I like that about you."He leaned back, a smug grin on his face, and casually remarked, "You know, Melissa, today was supposed to be the day you provided a husband to collect your father's inheritance."Melissa's eyes narrowed at his nonchalant attitude. "Nicholas is missing, and you're here acting so casual and relaxed about it. He's your brother!"He chuckled, swirling

Aiden stood outside Katherine's office, taking a moment to compose himself. He was about to take a risky decision he might regret or appreciate later on. Inhaling deeply, he knocked on the door, the sound echoing in the corridor.It was now or never. "Come in," Katherine's voice invited him in, and he entered, greeted by the sight of her behind the desk with a warm smile."Hi." He simply greeted. "Hello, Aiden," She replied, rising from her chair to welcome him. He nodded and moved to one of the visitor's chairs, settling in. Aiden took a deep breath as Katherine rose gracefully from behind her desk, acknowledging him with a welcoming smile. "Thank you for coming, Aiden," she expressed. Aiden, however, seemed determined to cut through the pleasantries. "Let's get straight to the point. I've thought about your marriage contract and I have decided to accept it, and get married to you," he declared. Katherine's eyebrows raised in surprise.Everything was going just according to he

Katherine found herself chuckling, "Damn Melissa, coming in without knocking," she remarked, a playful glint in her eyes. "Now she's got her heart broken. I wonder what she came here for. Anyways, it doesn't matter."With a dismissive shrug, Katherine redirected her attention to Aiden. She moved closer, a sly smile playing on her lips, and without further ado, she initiated a kiss with Aiden.He gently pushed Katherine away, creating a bit of distance between them. Katherine, caught off guard, looked at him with surprise evident in her eyes."What's the meaning of that?" she questioned.Aiden sighed and with that, he swiftly exited and pursued Melissa down the corridor. "Melissa!" He called out, "Melisa please wait up! Let me explain.""Leave me alone, Aiden," she retorted. She continued walking briskly, not wanting to engage in what seemed like an inevitable confrontation."No, Melissa, please. Let me explain," Aiden implored, catching up with her. "What could you possibly explain,

Aiden let out a sigh, his brow furrowing in frustration. "No, Katherine. Melissa isn't my ex. We were never in a relationship. I've known her for a while, but it's nothing romantic."Katherine raised a skeptical eyebrow, her lips curving into a smirk. "Oh, come on, Aiden. I'm not naive. The way she barged in here, the look on her face... That's not just a casual acquaintance's reaction to your impending marriage. Spill it. What's the real story between you two?"What? Why was Katherine probing him for answers like this? Was it that she knew something already? Whatever the case may be, there was no way that he would admit it. Aiden ran a hand through his hair, a hint of exasperation in his eyes. "There's no hidden story. We're friends, and that's it. Melissa was upset because she misunderstood the situation. She thought I was marrying you for some ulterior motive."Katherine brow's arched,. "Ulterior motive? What does she think this marriage is about?"Aiden chuckled, trying to downpl
