Livid Guardian's Endless Coddling

Chapter 60: I will sell you off



There wasn't much going on for more than a week at Aria's end. But Alan still couldn't get hold of any information about what Lucas Cooper did and where he was in the past six-year.

He didn't know whether Lucas Cooper was powerful or powerless. He didn't know what was his plans. He didn't know whether he would try to kidnap or meet Aria but nothing seemed to sink.

But Alan didn't let his guard down. He kept people around Aria whenever she went out to eat and play.

He was tortured by his mother again to go on date with a girl on the weekend and passed the message through Aria at last when he rejected it. He asked Nathan to send a name to his mother and went on date with Aria.

Aria wanted to eat barbecue hence he had booked a private room in a Barbecue restaurant for dinner. She wanted to call the trio friends but Alan had given her brooding look as a response.

Both entered inside to see a girl in a white floral knee-length dress looking outside. Aria thought like she would be a graceful, mature, beautiful woman. She knocked on the door as she entered to get the attention of the girl.

They were greeted with an enchanting smile and face but Aria felt like the earth rotated around once in a second making her root in her place.

The look in the girl's eyes changed ever so slightly and greeted them, "President Morgan! Aria Cooper!"

Aria turned to Alan who was next to her. She badly wanted to knock him down but she knew it was impossible.

Alan's brows twitched looking at the girl too. His first reaction was to look at Aria who was already looking at him and ready to beat him if she could.

Alan didn't know the girl's name and entered thinking Aria would anyway reject after talking with pretending haughty socialites. But after seeing the girl, he felt like Aria was going to flee or put him in difficulty.

Yes! he was right, Aria actually thought to put him in difficulty by fleeing away.

Aria suddenly smiled sweetly at Alan and looked Isla turner. "Ms.Turner, I had already told President Morgan that you love him with all your heart. You guys enjoy the dinner with pleasant talk. I will be off."

She turned to Alan whose face was dark and she was ultra sweet him, "President Morgan! I am just a call away. Call me if you need anything."

Then she walked towards the private room exit as she easily escaped his hand and asked the manager, "Is there another private room?"

The manager glanced at the cold face of Alan before speaking, "This way, Miss."

Only one was glee about the whole situation but it didn't stay long. "President Morgan! Please have a seat."

Her mother had told her that she got a call from Madam Morgan's housekeeper saying about the date. Her mom had sent the proposal to the Morgan family when she had got to know quite a few families were already trying to set the relationship.

But after she fell from her title of National Goddess, she never thought she would get a call but it surprised her and thought she was thinking too much about Aria. She even started to assume, Alan might like her too hence he asked to cancel her movies and ads so that she could be with him or he might don't like her to be in the showbiz.

Hearing Aria had already told about her love, she was kind of looking forward to having a talk with him.

Alan was initially angered thinking Nathan was a fool. After hearing Aria, he understood she purposefully made him look like a man who was there to hear Isla Turner confess to him directly.

Alan's eyes narrowed at Isla and smirked, "It's good that I'm meeting you personally. Keep your dirty mind and hands away from Aria if you and your family want to continue living in B city in elegance and smoothness."

He turned around to leave, Isla felt like somebody poured a bucket of icy cold water on her and she cried, "President Morgan! You were the one who called me for a date. How can you leave me alone here?"

Alan leisurely turned around to face her. "Since you love me... No! you love my looks and my status, let me tell you a secret. The one I love and came on a date is Aria. The one who picked your profile was my assistant, you can go to him. I have no objection."

Isla froze.

She couldn't believe her own ears. "You... you..." She wanted to say 'you are her guardian' but knew it doesn't really make sense as he wasn't a natural guardian.

Alan left the private and asked the restaurant manager who was near the reception before going to Aria's room where she had ordered and was ready to start dinner.

He wanted to reproach her for leaving but didn't after seeing another set of cutlery and she was pouring the wine for a glass gracefully and attentively.

Aria knew he would come sooner or later hence she was prepared. Hearing the door open and closing, she spoke without raising her head, "President Morgan! It's a pleasure meeting you. Have a seat. I hope you like the menu I have ordered for you."

Even though her hospitality was high class, he knew it was a sarcastic remark. "Aria! You..."

He didn't find the right word and Aria spoke leaning on the table, "I'm glad you are speechless. How dare you tag me along to have dinner with that actress? Be happy with the fact that I can't beat you up. Eat now, I'm hungry."

Alan was amused and delighted to hear her. Aria heard him chuckle when she was going to her chair. "I will sell you off one day to a random girl to save myself."

Pfft-

Alan who had just taken a sip of the wine choked on it and glared at Aria who was chuckling.

'Dumb girl! Little longer! you will know who will be sold to whom.'

They had dinner before going to the Morgan mansion.

----

Isla's hatred towards Aria increased significantly. She broke a few things in the room before leaving for her home fuming in rage.

She swore to herself not to let Aria off the hook for playing with her feelings. She thought Aria purposefully created their encounter to show off her relationship.

She racked her brain for days until she got a way to keep Alan Morgan away from Aria Cooper.

----

Since there was no move from Lucas Cooper, Alan returned back to his villa and didn't let Aria and Rian drive the car without a driver when they requested.

Four friends had applied and learned driving right after Noah, the youngest one in the group had celebrated his sixteenth birthday.

Rian was always restricted by his parents saying he was allowed after school. Aria was cycling as school was near to her villa, now she couldn't hence she asked but Alan flatly refused.

Eva's parents didn't allow her and her father dropped her daily if not, his government vehicle would be there for her requirements.

Noah's parents didn't want him to worry about driving. They looked after him like a delicate doll who would break if he carries even a little weight on his hands. He was getting spoiled to that extent.
