Relationship and marriage

Alan was leaning on his car looking at Aria who was learning to shoot the basketball to the basket as a few were trying to give her tips. His lips tilted up seeing her jumping on her toes happily celebrating for the first basket after three tries.

But that smile didn't last long because somebody called coquettishly, "President Morgan"

He turned to see the girl who looked elder to be studying in the school. Her make-up face made him feel disgusted. Since he didn't know her and seeing her swoon on his face blushing heavily, he sat in his car and drove off to his private villa.

Isla Turner gritted her teeth and diverted her rage looking towards Aria.

As soon as she got to know, Alan was present on the school campus, she went to the administrative block to meet Alan. She saw him rubbing Aria's head and the latter following him out. She couldn't hear them as she was far.

Later she saw Alan smiling which made her heart skip a beat as she never saw him smiling in pictures either but seeing his line of sight, she interrupted him but she didn't expect Alan to give her indifferent face and leave without responding.

She stomped her foot towards Aria but the bell rang and all dispersed to leave to their home. Her vicious eye traced Aria until she was out of her sight. 'You! Bitch. You are no match for me. Be it looks or family.'

She called her manager and instructed hearing the response, "I want every detail about Aria Cooper."

Her face was ugly responding to the question, "A student in Elite school. Senior high, science class two."

She hung up and she had to give a smile when few student fans waved their hands at her. 'You stupid brainless fans.' she cursed under her smile.

Her one classmate brought her bag to her and she went towards the gate to hop on her car. She saw Rian and Aria taking the same car and an evil smirk appeared on her face.

She got into her car and left.

Aria and Rian left as Noah was in the student committee office discussing few things. Eva had left a very long back with her father.

As planned before a week, all packed to go to the resort which was under Wood's company. Due to Noah, Rian and Aria, Resort was restricted to limited the visitor.

Eva's father was a government employee at higher-level management. Her identity wasn't sensitive as the trio's identity. Aria's identity was always secret but after her father, her name came up as heiress hence she had to be cautious too which she didn't like yet she had no other option.

Four reached the resort at nine at night with the security Wood's and Morgan's arranged for them. Four went to their rooms and got fresh before enjoying the night with beers in the sky lounge.

...

Alan received a call from Amelia and Rowan to visit them. The former gave in to their request and went on Sunday morning knowing Aria and Rian were out.

During breakfast, Amelia brought a topic with lots of difficulties, "Alan! What are your plans for relationship and marriage? Why are you letting media and netizens continue their speculation about your interest in men?"

Alan Morgan's secretaries and assistant, executives of every department were men. Nobody ever saw him interacting with women excluding the interviewers. So the media started to hype that news from the past a few months.

Alan never answered those rumors hence it would be brought up every now and then. Especially with Isaac and Nathan. Whenever Morgan Entertainment's female celebrities get questions about Alan, they would give ambiguous replies to the question which Alan didn't care.

"Mom! It's been just a year I took over the position. I'm not interested in any relationship."

Rowan continued, "What about the rumors?"

Alan took his time to respond, "It isn't affecting the company."

Rowan knew that but he thought it would affect Alan's image. Seeing his nonchalance, he gave up about it.

After finishing the breakfast, the trio was sitting in the living hall when Amelia brought up Aria's topic, "Alan! Don't mind about what Arrie told you last week..."

Alan cut in saying plainly, "I already met her. Don't worry."

Amelia and Rowan didn't know that. The latter still continued, "Treat Aria like stranger or friend which she wouldn't mind. Don't treat her as both. We know you but she doesn't."

Alan just hummed so that they could stop talking about Aria. He spent time with them till lunch and returned to his villa.

He never talked much hence his short reply didn't affect his parents but he had complex thoughts in his mind.

He didn't know how to solve his thoughts, he didn't know how to alleviate Aria's insecurity.

The more if he tries to disperse his thoughts about her, it increased more even though he didn't contact her, see her or chat with her.

...

After eating, playing and enjoying at the resort till evening, four were dead tired. After dinner, they slept in the car on the way home. They dropped Eva first before Noah, Rian and Aria reached their place at half-past ten.

They didn't stay long with Amelia and Rowan as they were tired and had school the next day.

When Aria and Rian reached school and walked towards the classroom, they were getting weird glances from students. Initially, Rian roared at them to keep their eyes check but when it continued, Aria felt something was off.

Eva and Noah ran towards them and pulled them to the classroom before breaking the news. "Somebody called FairyPrincess user named student wrote a post about you two in the school forum yesterday."

Aria and Rian looked at each other before opening the school forum on their mobile. The previous day, they didn't even think about mobile whole day hence they had no idea about anything or what's going on in the school forum.

Aria who used mobile as she went to her desk, froze. She bit her lip, what her father didn't want to happen was happening. She sat down and threw the mobile in the bag without checking any comments.

She looked outside and took a few deep breaths before calming herself and seeing Rian's darkened face as he went through the comments.
