."What did you plan on doing to the Pedros for all the wrongs they've done to you and your family?" She asked and Aidan's expression darkened."I'm sorry for asking such a personal question but...""Nothing." He muttered. "What? What did you just say?" She asked, surprise evident in her voice. "I don't want to do anything to them again, Chyna." He replied, dropping her hand and stood up. Chyna's eye nearly Pope out of their socket, did she just hear him right, maybe she didn't get the answer or he didn't get the question she'd asked.... or... or, he's just joking but when she looked up to see his facial expression, there was nothing that gives any sense of humor. She stood up, shock rocketing through her body, how can he say he'd not make them pay for what they did to him. Those assholes killed his parents in an accident that was also supposed to claim his life but he survived and that took him from life of riches to that of a miserable pathetic one, he'd been orphaned by those
The night was a long one as Aidan had predicted, he was on conference calls that lasted all night, he loves his work because there's always something to do. The empire is so big to an extent that there's always work pending to do. He'd absorbed himself so much that he doesn't think of anything else aside from Cora of course, she'd become a significant part of him that he can't sum his life up without including her. Her and her babies would live a great peaceful life and he'll make sure of that. "It's past five in the morning boss, you should rest." Eva's voice filled the room and Aidan rolled his eyes and returned his concentration back on the tablet he was holding. "I'll go to bed once I finish reading this deal and sign it, don't worry about me, I'll be fine." He replied and returned all his focus back on the device but Eva wasn't the type to give up especially when it comes to her boss health, the man had become stubborn and careless when it comes to his health and the bot would
.Cora was busy chattering away while Chyna ate her food quietly, nodding and contributing to Cora's gist when she's needed. She couldn't sleep early last night due to different thoughts whirling in her head, when she managed to fall asleep, it was almost morning and when she woke up past nine in the morning, she dreaded coming out of her room because of the little tiff she had with Aidan. She hadn't meant to get so provoked by his utterances, it's his life and he has the right to decide what he wants and what he doesn't want. Why the fuck was she so provoked because Aidan doesn't wish to take vengeance on the Pedros? Why did she have to shout at him and even ousted him from her room in his own house indirectly. Oh, Chyna, you've taken things too far. And so what if he doesn't want to take vengeance, that's what he wants and what he considers right to do, she has no right and would never have the right to interfere in his decision or decision making. She let out a sigh unknowin
"What the hell did you just say?" She asked with a deep frown, her eyes shimmering with anger."I didn't know you two didn't discuss it. I'm so sorry, just calm down and please, don't get hyper." Chyna muttered, trying to calm the angry looking woman whose eyes seemed to burn. Ok. She's in trouble! How could she discuss something like that with Cora? Cora's anger is terrible and Aidan doesn't like anything that would make her angry. When she wasn't pregnant, she had anger issues and it seems like her pregnancy worsened her case. In a real sense it complicated her hormones, any little things that don't go along with her thinking gets her so angry to such an extent that it stresses her. Chyna could vividly remember the day she got so angry that she passed out, Aiden nearly lost his senses that very day and now this. Telling her this is like inviting trouble and looking at the way she's looking now, Chyna might enter Aidan black book of records. Oh God! Wasn't her life already a com
Chapter 153."And I didn't forgive them, Cora. I'll never make the mistake of forgiving them, Cara Mia." He said, his Greek accent coming into play and one could sense the deadly venom in his voice.Aidan helped her sit comfortably on her seat,"Stop crying, I'm sure you don't wanna birth crying babies." He teased the crying woman who pouted her mouth."I'm not giving birth to cry babies, I don't wanna cry. You know how much I hate crying but little things keep getting me so emotional that I do not have a choice but to cry. I used to be so strong emotionally but look at me..." She complained, putting to herself while Aidan took a seat next to her. "I've become such a cry baby and I hate it! I never seem to run out of tears. I prefer to get angry, I look fierce and fiery when I'm angry but compared to crying, I look pathetic with red swollen eyes." She murmured in self pity and Aidan shook his head, trying his possible best not to laugh."You look pretty always and I love it when you c
"What are you scared of because I'm in so much confusion now and if you don't clear the fog soon, I'll just die due to it." Cora exclaimed, her voice high pitched.She's truly in a fog of confusion and if not for the looks on his face, she'd have started laughing thinking it was a joke. What the hell is he scared of? What's he so scared of that he chooses to forfeit his revenge? "The Pedros have become very influential and extremely powerful Cora, they have gone deep in wealth and power, they have so many allies and going against them is gonna be disastrous." He stated and Cora frown deepened."Aidan, that's not enough reason for you to forget your vengeance, you've taken down men more powerful than Mr. Pedro, you made them bite dust, they cowered in fear whenever they heard your name. Why are you afraid all of a sudden?" She asked, rubbing her temple to calm herself down, she didn't wish to burst now and complicate the whole situation.Aidan looked at her, a sad smile covering his
155Cora's eyes were still fixed or Aidan, her whole body warm, her heart beating calmly, hearing Aidan's words had made her emotional, even if she hasn't been pregnant with all those terrible mood swings and hormones on the high, she'd have still felt the emotions she's feeling now, though it might not be as high as this. "Aidan? Are you crazy!? How could you come to such a conclusion? Do you have any idea of what you're talking about?" Cora asked, surprise clouding her voice, she can't even think straight. Aidan smiled, his eyes fixed on Cora, "You know I never make hasty decisions, I've thought this through and I've come to the conclusion that it's the best for my family. You don't understand my dear honey, I don't fear going against them, I fear what would be the outcome. I have you and the kids to worry about. I'm not alone anymore. I have a family now and I don't want anything to happen to any of you. I'll never put any of you in harm's way." He answered, his voice call and co
Aidan was engrossed in his work as usual when his phone began to ring, he tapped the button and Joy's voice rang in the air. "Yes, Joy?" He replied, still scribbling on the pad on his table."Good afternoon sir." She greeted."Afternoon Joy, what's wrong?"He asked."Nothing sir." She replied quickly and hung up. Aidan cocked his eyebrow, shrugged and returned his complete focus on his work. He needs to finish the documenting about his new business plan soon, the business would have to kick off soon, there's no time to waste."Joy's here to see you, should I let her in." Eva announced and Aidan looked towards the door and saw her, standing and fidgeting with her fingers by the door.Why's she looking so nervous?"Let her in." He replied, dropping the pen he was holding. The door slid open and Joy entered, her eyes locking with Aidan's but she was quick to look away. Aidan creased his face, something is wrong with her secretary. Joy is a very confident woman with self composure and
