Chapter 237: Loves to spend time

They made fun of Noah for sometime before Isaac spoke, "That's enough. Let him off."

Rian and Aria thought to stop the game and nodded at each other. The former spoke, "Bro, take care of your wife."

Aria: "..."

Noah spoke, "There are only two bedrooms inside, so arranged a canopy under that tree, no worries, it's safe and one on the terrace."

All first looked at Alan unknowingly to let him choose first.

Alan raised his brows at Aria to ask but she mouthed at Alan, 'Your choice.'

"Terrace."

Eva jumped, "I want white canopy, It looks romantic."

"Need a bedroom." Rian said and left with Roxy.

Noah went to his room wishing them night.

Aria and Eva stood up to leave but blocked by their men.

"Who does Noah like? You?"

Eva poked his head, "Nope stupid."

Aria understood without asking, "My love, he sees us as sisters. Let's go."

Isaac's lips twitched, "Stupid and My love." He gave thumbs up at Alan and took his girlfriend.

Alan was still in a dilemma, "Are you sure?"

"Shall we take a small walk? I ate too much."

Alan nodded.

Aria hugged his arm as she walked with him, "Even though I don't think about what others feel for me, I am always attentive about these three so I can say Noah likes us as a friend, loves to spend time with us as a friend. Sister Zara found him lost in thoughts and speaking on mobile to some girl saying he will take care of her asking her to trust him. Sister Zara had called me and asked about it. Since I didn't know, I spoke to Rian who also didn't know so we were trying if he could say it. And you petty man, stop overthinking."

Alan finally let his heart at rest.

After a good walk, both reached the terrace.

Aria looked at the arrangements and gasped. It was romantic and beautiful. A bed had been arranged with soft tiny lights around.

Alan was impressed by the arrangement looking at her happy. 'Simpleton' He thought he picked the right choice by choosing the terrace.

Both cuddled as they spoke before falling asleep.

Noah had taken the unfinished vodka bottle and drank till the bottoms empty before sleeping.

He was tired of assuring the girl that he would take care of her, her family, and her problems. He had two choices, either he could try more or give up. He didn't want to give up but he wasn't ready to lower himself again and again for her.

He hadn't told anybody and he knew his friends would anyway get to know sooner or later. Due to his action, he was sure they would sit on his head from the upcoming days.

Rian spooned Roxy as they spoke. "Rian, were you guys teasing Noah? Or is he really into guys?"

"Just teased..." Rian's groggy voice sounded in the room.

"Then why didn't he tell the name of the girl?"

"I'm trying to know it but he isn't telling me. There must be a problem, you don't worry, we three will help him out."

Roxy started speculating what could be a problem but Rian had dozed off hearing her soft tone. Roxy just smiled and went to deep slumber.

Inside the white canopy, Isaac thought for a few minutes before asking, "Do you love me?"

Eva who was checking out the surroundings paused and teased, "No. I'm just having fun with a sexist man."

Isaac frowned and didn't speak again. Thinking about themselves, they actually never confessed to each other. Whenever he took the marriage topic, Eva always brushed it off.

While concentrating on their own career, they took care of each other, worried about each other, got to know about each other well but at some point, he started to feel like they were just friends with benefits.

Leaving the marriage topic, whenever he tries to talk about their relationship, Eva always brushes it off or makes fun of themselves.

'What the hell are we?' This question started haunting him.

He tried again, "Eva, shall we get engaged?"

Eva who pulled the blanket on them pinched his cheek, "Aren't we good now? Sleep, it's late."

Isaac's frowns got deepened and closed his eyes to sleep. Eva caressed his face and flipped around.

Both didn't talk but both didn't sleep struggling in their own world.

Xoan received the news saying they didn't find any such girl but there was one with Alan but they lost the track.

As soon as he heard it, he broke the mobile crashing aside, scaring the girl next to him who left the private room instantly.

One who could calm him was Xin but he didn't want to disturb Xin. He planned a few things out, fulfilled his physical urges, and went back to his home.

--

The next day all got back to work. Alan warned Aria to be careful about her security before letting her go.

While entering her office Aria noticed Ceon Davies in the waiting area but she wasn't sure who he was waiting for so she just minded her business.

Ceon was waiting for Aria but he didn't identify Aria due to her attire and face mask.

When Levi went inside the office, Ceon identified him. "Assistant Levi?"

Levi faced him and remembered he was Finn's friend, "Yes? How may I help you?"

Ceon directly went to the point, "I want to meet Aria Cooper."

Levi didn't show any emotions on his face, "President Cooper's schedule is full this week. I can give you an appointment in the next but for that may I know the reason?"

Ceon didn't know Levi knew about Finn, "I just need a minute or two. Let me meet her."

"Sorry Sir, That's not possible. Excuse me." Levi responded and was ready to leave Ceon interrupted.

"President Cooper and I have met. She knows me. Why don't you ask her once?"

Even though what he said was the truth, there were many like that trying to reach her so Levi wasn't convinced whether as her assistant or personal bodyguard.

"Sorry Sir, I can't help you with this. If you know President Cooper, you can take her appointment directly. Have a good day." Levi didn't leave any room for further argument and left.

Ceon cursed under breath walking back and forth until a girl identified him and tried to strike a conversation. He felt annoyed and left Skyline Industries.

He thought his father might help him reach Aria or get her personal number so he got into another mission.
