Her smile....
Aaron sitting opposite to Arthur asked ' You filthy man, you own such a place? What else do you do to smuggle drugs?'
Arthur didn't say anything, just sat there and then looked at Aaron…
Arthur said ' I want to know everything about
Matthew Long, Everything…'
Hearing it Aaron's face changed, he was a bit tense, why is he asking about Mathew? Did he come to know about it? No, how will he know??
Seeing his changed expression and silence Arthur frowned and asked ' What happened? You don't wanna tell me? If I wanna know I will get everything out but it will take time so, I am asking you'
Aaron hearing it thought it's better he tells him rather than him knocking it and he can drop the topic of Mathew and Maria….
Aaron said ' No it's just why suddenly Mathew Long?'
Arthur said ' I want to know, and you say him long? Not uncle? looks like someone has enmity '
Aaron nodded and said ' Well after Mathew's father passed away my dad expected he will have the reins of Long's group in his hand but it went to Mathew Long even being so young he was sharp and turned around a bad situation of the group to a great, but My Father was not happy about it so he always stayed close to him and one day he found an opportunity in the name of July '
Arthur hearing it understood it's gonna be interesting…..
Aaron then went on to tell him everything about how Francis seduced July into being his puppet and throwing her into Mathew's bed and making her pregnant with his child…
Arthur was overwhelmed with all the cunning things Francis has done and thought what an asshle he is. You do something bad so easily without even hesitating a bit….
But he was now more interested as he heard about the child of Mathew, Aaron was drinking water even though he felt filthy saying all these bad things done by his father but to hide something he had to give something and he is doing that….
He continued the story and it finally ended…
Arthur hummed and asked ' So even after seeing Francis have sex with his wife in front of him and knowing she betrayed him, he didn't divorce her?'
Aaron nodded and said ' He loved her that much plus she was bearing his child'
Arthur was baffled hearing it, he interpreted Mathew as a good man hearing it…
Arthur asked ' About the child what happened to him? Were they normal?'
Aaron said ' Though he never divorced her but after that incident, they weren't the same, both lived in the same house but were far apart and constant ignorance and Mathew didn't care for his son well and seeing his parents such he didn't take it well and left both of them a long back and settled in England somewhere'
Arthur hummed in confusion and said ' So he just left them?'
Aaron nodded ' He just went breaking all ties with them, not wanting them in his life'
Arthur asked ' So they are still living together? Still the same or got feelings?'
Aaron hearing it thought they got feelings back but the hard way, sacrificed Maria for it…
Seeing him thinking something Arthur asked ' What are you thinking?'
Aaron gave an awkward laugh and said' they might have reconciled as I heard they were seen together smiling and all'
Arthur thought seeing him so awkward thought he was hiding something but he didn't care as he got his answers….
Stuart is indeed Mathew's son and Francis is approaching him but why? Was the question…
Aaron asked ' Why are you suddenly so interested in Mathew Long's life?' He wanted to know what he came to know…
Arthur said ' Your father didn't just go to control the game from there he is after Stuart Long'
Aaron hearing it was shocked ' What is this old man planning he thought'
Aaron said ' What can he do meeting him?'
Arthur said ' That's what I am confused about, what is he planning, he joined hands with Rachel and she tried to take on Maria by entering the home but was thrown out and so she tried to blackmail her with her past making Maria desperate '
Hearing past Aaron was stunned she knew he thought…
Aaron closed his fists tightly and said ' How dare she'
Arthur seeing him angry said ' Ya Maria was so upset and was trying to tell me everything about her past'
Aaron felt as if he was being killed slowly. Why doesn't he say everything in a go he thought…
Aaron was a bit afraid and with hesitation, he asked ' so you let her say?'
Arthur replied ' No, I stopped her she was feeling so painful going through the past and I don't care about her past'
Aaron was relieved to hear that she didn't tell him but also he thought she should have told him?
Arthur then said ' Okay that's all I wanted to know, let's see what happens '
Saying he was about to get up and Aaron said ' What if ' and he trailed off…
Arthur looked at him confusingly and asked ' What, what if?'
Aaron looked at him and said ' What if one day Maria's past is out and it ain't good and everyone is against you, even your mom?'
Arthur hearing it was stunned but soon he was normal and with a smile, he said ' She is my woman and will always be my woman, If I say nothing can take her away from me then nothing'
Aaron nodded and said ' Remember it'
Arthur felt as if Aaron knew something that he didn't know but he didn't care and got up and walked out and as he went out Arthur said…
THIS IS WHERE I MET MARIA FOR THE FIRST TIME……
Saying he left….
Aaron was stunned hearing it? This place? He thought…
This is why he owns it….
Aaron just sighed and hoped everything would go alright….
………….
In Marcello Palace,
Maria woke up and saw Arthur wasn't on the bed and she touched his side of the bed and feeling it cold she knew he had gotten up a long ago….
She sat up and stretched herself making a moaning noise and a smile appeared on her face….
She was happy and alive the past 2 days were killing her but now she is happy…
She looked for her phone and was not able to find it. She groaned a bit and got down from the bed and made her hair in a bun and looked around and finally saw it on the sofa…
She smiled and picked it up and saw there were texts from Arthur ' I will be back in some time baby girl, you take rest I Love You '
She smiled brightly and did a little dance and then sitting on the sofa she called Mishka.
The call connected and Maria said ' Good morning gg bestieeee'
Hearing her so excited and happy, Mishka for a second was stunned. She was so sad last night and now this? This girl's mood swings and she laughed….
Mishka said ' Good afternoon it is madam, but someone looks happy'
Maria nodded and said ' Yes I am happy no no not just happy very very happy'
Mishka hearing her sweet voice could imagine her smile through the phone and she smiled too. Finally, she was also very scared for her.
They both started talking…
Arthur finally reached the Palace and seeing no one he went up and as he opened the door he heard the beautiful laugh of Maria…
His face lit up with a smile, he looked at her, who was sitting on the sofa with her back towards him and talking so sweetly and happily on the phone…
He closed the door and hearing the clicking noise Maria turned and seeing Arthur come she smiled happily, Arthur was overwhelmed…
Maria disconnected the call saying she will call back and got up and went towards Arthur and tip-toed herself and kissed him on his cheek…
Arthur chuckled looking at her childish acts...
He pulled her cheek and asked 'You good?'
Maria nodded and said ' Never felt this good'
Arthur kissed her cheek and he held her waist and pulled her closer and she placed her hands on his chest.
Arthur slowly took his right hand towards her bun and opened it making her hair fall…
He smiled and said ' You look more beautiful when they are open'
Maria blushed and hid her face in his chest making him laugh and he hugged her tightly…
Both wanted time to freeze there….
After some time, Arthur rubbing her back said ' Get ready let's go out and have fun'
Maria immediately nodded and went to change and Arthur said to be fast…
Arthur smiled and sat on the bed holding a pillow, his face was full of smiles he wanted every day to be like this….
And to keep it like that he will try his best and won't leave her no matter what he thought and thinking he took out his phone and messaged something to someone…
After 20 minutes finally, Maria came out wearing a beautiful dark blue sundress and her hair open. She looked stunning…
Arthur felt lucky to have her, he got up and after complimenting her and said something in her ear making her face all red she shyly bowed her head and he chuckled and held her hand they went out…
After they got into the car, Maria asked where we were going first?
Arthur said ' First let's get you some breakfast, you didn't have it'
Maria in all the excitement forgot that she didn't even have food, she smiled and said ' Okay, I will have a burger'
Arthur said ' It's not healthy to eat first thing burger'
Maria said ' What, you said we will have fun and now you say this, you do what you want' saying she turned her head looking outside the window…
Arthur shook his head seeing her and he looked at the driver and nodded.
After a few minutes the car entered a subway and seeing it Maria smiled but was still looking out.
Arthur asked what should he order and Maria teased him by saying ' It ain't good for health na, leave it'
Arthur chuckled and told the driver to go and Maria stopped him immediately and ordered 2 burgers…
After they got the order she passed the one to Arthur and said to have it…
Arthur denied but she kept on insisting on him and he shook his head and she was looking at him taking the bite with a weird face and she laughed…
Arthur didn't like it much but ate it in a few large bites and saw Maria having it slowly. He smiled seeing her small mouth struggling to open as wide as it could to bite it…
After finally finishing, Arthur helped her wipe her mouth and hands. The driver looked at his master taking care of her with so much love he smiled and wished they could always be together…
Then after that, they went shopping and he took her to the best designer and seeing the prices Maria was hesitant and Arthur smiled and in an instant selected many dresses and gave them to the saleswoman and told Maria to try them…
Maria looked at the stack and asked ' All this?'
Arthur nodded and Maria nodded and went with the woman and Arthur sat down on the sofa and waited for her…
Maria would change into a dress and come out and Arthur would either reject or select and it went for long even Maria was a bit tired now of changing n all seeing Arthur bought all…
Though She stopped him, he bought all the dresses and told the saleswoman to deliver them to their Palace…
Then they went to other shops…..
On another side,
In Louis Palace,
Ava was standing in front of her father and Chris Jacob was behind him….
Ava opened her mouth to say something but her father shouted ' You still dare to say something? You ungrateful girl'
Chris smiled and Ava had tears in her eyes….
