Livid Guardian's Endless Coddling

Chapter 69: I don't go with a rogue



Eva's face was bright red by the time she stopped. "Arrie! If he again kisses like that, let me know I will give you a verbal explanation and you can try on him. Still, I don't think Prince can be that dumb not to know how to kiss, he must have thought you will get scared of him."

Aria couldn't take it anymore and smacked her head, "Are you really my friend? For god's sake, can you concentrate on the important thing? He is my guardian and he forced it on me."

She quickly added, "If you laugh again, I'm leaving."

Eva sighed and spoke, "He is your legal guardian for just three more months. Why are you making it sound like he is your father?" Eva bopped her head to hear her say, "I know that."

Eva was happy Aria understood Alan could have other relationships with her. "He forced on you because he didn't want you to think of him as a brother. Haven't I told you Prince likes you hence he treats you well? You were the one who wasn't ready to believe me."

Until yesterday, Yes! she didn't believe what Eva had told her. "Then why does he go on date with so many girls? Why didn't he tell me?"

Eva smiled, "Wifey! Improve your EQ too. Let me check your IQ. Consider Prince liked you all along and remember whatever happened till now and tell me."

Aria was quick at analyzing that way. "So he was actually on dates with me making me reject all the girls by me. It was just a reason for him to spend time with me."

Eva dramatically laughed, "Less than five seconds you got to know. My goddess didn't lose her brain." She kissed her head imagining she was kissing Aria's brain.

Aria thought, 'Is he going to tell me today that he likes me? Or are we overthinking things?'

Eva looked at her complex thoughts, "What's wrong?"

Aria leaned on her, "What if he is pitying me? What if he did for Skyline even though chances about this is less, I feel like, he is pitying me. And he never mingled much with females, what if... I don't know... Leave, I don't want to think. Let him confess then I will think. Ahhh My head is throbbing."

Eva just smiled, "Take it slowly. Don't think too much."

Aria hummed and Eva was back on teasing mode, "By the way, when you were leaning on Prince, how did you feel?" She moved her hand around Aria's waist, "How did he feel wrapping his muscular arm here?..."

She continued on until Aria forgot about her confusion and turned scarlet by hearing her...

Classes ended and she was on the way out with Eva and Noah, Jake went behind her and made her turn to face him, "Arrie! You did it on purpose, didn't you? You avenged my father through me... I know whatever my father did was wrong, but why did you use me? Aria Cooper! You are heartless."

Aria went behind Jake as she tried to talk, "Jake! Jake... I'm sorry! My intention wasn't to hurt you. Jake..." She couldn't take it and pulled his hand to face her, "I'm really sorry. I mean it. If your father is angry with you, I will talk to him."

Jake released his hand from her clutch and took a few seconds before nodding and looking at her, "Do you know? I would have still helped you if you told me the truth. Anyway, I hope you had reason to do this, let me hear it."

Aria bit her lip. What he said created a lump in her throat making her difficult to speak. If Jake got angry, she wouldn't have minded. She didn't expect him to feel so bad.

It took her time to react but before that, a voice sounded behind her, "Your father took the case of Lucas Cooper for her custody. Do you know that man almost killed her? Your father completely knows about it, still, he is supporting that man and called her mentally challenged just to win the case and maintain his winning streak. Do you think anybody could still manage to come to school after hearing such news all over?..." Noah hugged Aria who had turned to him as he continued to speak to Jake.

"...Go and ask your father, what else he is planned to hurt Arrie. She just tried to teach him a small lesson and you are calling her heartless. What should we call your father who is helping a man who is ready to kill Arrie?"

Jake just got to know his father's reputation dropped to a certain level because he called mentally ill and he proved Aria was better than the good. He didn't know his father was fighting against Aria till he spoke to Carter Davis.

Jake felt bad for Aria after hearing Noah, "I'm sorry..."

Arria released herself and cut him, "You don't have to apologize. It wasn't your mistake. I'm sorry. I will help you back when you need it... Shall I talk to your father? He must be angry with you. Blame everything on me. I am ok with that."

Jake shook his head, "My account or somebody's account, the effect would be the same. My father should learn his lesson too."

Aria nodded, "If you don't mind, pass on a message to your father from me, 'A wise man changes his mind sometimes, a fool never.' Thank you."

Jake nodded and left. Aria turned to Eva who was patting her back, "I have turned heartless."

Eva sighed and rubbed her back hugging her.

Rian who exited saw them and ran towards them in panic. He peeled two girls and checked on Aria, "Little Devil! Did anybody say something?"

Before Aria, Eva spoke pulling Aria back to her, "How dare you take my wife away?... Baby! I need a hug."

Aria hit her forehead and ran away for some distance, "Eva! Stop flirting with me. People will think about us as something else."

Eva pointed her chin behind Aria but she didn't understand her sign and Aria heard a voice, "Oh! I never thought like that."

Aria who heard the voice next to her ear jerked aside to see Alan and ran away to Eva. "I will give your hug, I don't want to go with him." She whispered to Eva standing next to her.

Noah and Rian repeated their act, "We are not here to steal Goddess from President Morgan. Bye"

Aria gritted her teeth, "How dare you guys abandon me?"

Both turned around made a heart shape with their palm at Aria and ran away.

Eva turned to Aria and patted her cheek, "I love you! You know it right? But my love for you shouldn't stop you from getting a man for yourself." She quickly gave a hug and ran away making her tongue out.

Aria kept her poker face and started walking towards the exit. Alan pursed his lips and saw her passing by him without talking or looking at him.

He followed her and saw her walking away from the car. He took long strides and held her hand before pulling her to him. "Where are you going?"

"None of your business." She tried to move away, he pulled her back, "I will take you somewhere, let's go."

Aria raised her head and glared at him, "I don't go with a rogue."

Aria shrugged her hands and walked ahead.
