Chapter 454 - Marry me(3)

He had no recollection of his childhood and parents after the accident. After it, he took a lot of time to return normal. His grandparents alone took care of Sigma and had very little time to spend with him.

He didn't remember anybody being affectionate to him other than Olivia. But seeing her busy all the time, he used to stay alone and work hard not to make her worry.

When he got to know David sent Sky to the Barton family, he was happy for her. Because living with a single parent who was working on building a company won't be able to give as much love and care as a complete family could give her.

Even after knowing she was heiress of Harley, she didn't let it affect her relationship with Bartons. That showed how much she cared about relationships. Knowing she was even ready to leave everything to be with the Barton family, it showed she didn't care about social status or money.

"Ryan! What is the status of the Manor work?" Arlo asked in a low voice as possible.

"Huh?" Ryan was humming a song to himself, "Oh! Tomorrow they will complete the furnishing work."

Arlo hummed in response.

He had brought a piece of land which was around the forest. After hearing Sky saying to take her to forest on top of the hill where she can watch stars better if he kidnaps her, he had asked to build a manor right after landing in Country U.

He was planning to take her there next Saturday giving some excuse and propose her. And that day would decide what would happen between them.

If she says yes, they would be together and she would know his real identity else he would disappear from her life without any trace.

But he didn't even want to think her say no. He always worked to get what he wanted. Even though he tried to be near her ignoring many other things, he wasn't sure about what would be the result of his proposal.

After reaching the Harley mansion, He woke her up and she spoke. "Since it's late, you two should rest and leave tomorrow."

Arlo knew Sky had to drop Mia to Cox's family house the next day morning hence he agreed so that she won't be sending her alone. Ryan was dead sleepy hence he didn't even reply and walked towards the outhouse where she usually arranges for them to sleep.

"She has soo many rooms in the mansion, why does she send us to the outhouse?" Ryan muttered and yawned as he walked. Even Arlo had the same question but he didn't care about it.

--

The next day Ryan left as soon he woke up as he had lots to take care of at work. Arlo woke up at the usual time and got fresh before going to the Harley mansion.

Butler greeted him and asked him to sit in the living room. Arlo didn't know Sky wakes up late on Sunday and waited for a long time. Butler had asked him many times for breakfast.

Hearing him say, 'Later' again and again, Butler said, "Young miss wakes up late on Sunday. You should eat."

Arlo pondered for few seconds and denied, "I will wait for her."

Butler sighed and got back to work. Mia who woke up first, made Sky wake up. Both brushed and went down. Since both were hungry, they were coming down in nightdress without changing.

Sky saw Arlo and didn't expect him to be there in the mansion. She ran back to her room asking Mia to go down.

Arlo saw her coming down in her short slip nightdress and loose floor-length jacket. But after seeing him, she ran off saying something to Mia. He chuckled lightly and looked at Mia coming down. Mia excitedly spoke to him and he responded to all her questions.

Sky soon came down in leisurewear. "Mia! let's have breakfast. Arlo! did you eat?" Sky asked as she carried Mia to the dining table. Arlo followed her and sat opposite.

After breakfast, Sky helped Mia to shower and sent her to Arlo for playing. She took shower left home to Cox mansion. Arlo drove her car as Mia sat on her lap.

Arlo insisted on waiting in the car and let Sky and Mia go inside.

Sky didn't stay for long and left from there. "Shall I drop you somewhere or get a car for you?"

Arlo was driving the car, "I don't have much to do."

'Does that mean you are coming with me?' Sky thought to herself but remained silent.

After reaching the Harley mansion, Sky instructed the butler to prepare something but Arlo suggested that he would prepare.

So Sky took her laptop and went to the kitchen. He was still preparing when Ryan called him. "Hmm?" He received and hummed. Sky thought it was for her and looked at him.

She saw him drop everything from his hand and his expression was ghastly. "Arlo, what happened?"

Arlo left everything and ran out saying, "Grandmother is hospitalized."

Sky followed him out grabbing her jacket. He remembered he didn't bring the car. He turned around to ask Sky but Aston martin stopped as Sky shouted, "Hop on."

He immediately took a shotgun seat and furrowed his brows. "Let me drive"

"Wear your seat belt. Which hospital?" Sky asked as she exited Harley estate.

"Sigma" Arlo replied.

His mind was in mess. They were on the outskirts of another end of the city. By the time his chopper reach and take him back, he could go by the ring road. But remembering how Sky drove from Harley's resorts to Harley mansion at moderate speed, he wasn't sure how she would drive.

Upon that Grandmother fainted after saying chest pain and hospitalized. He was shuddering as he thought about her but nothing much showed on the exterior.

Sky entered the ring road and clicked a button on the steering wheel and spoke, "Call Sam!"

Arlo frowned then he heard ringing sound and realized she didn't tell him.

Sam's voice heard in the car, "Sky!"

"Sam! You will get a notification that I will be speeding. It's an emergency, I'm going with Arlo. Don't worry about me." Sky said at a fast pace.

There was a few seconds silence before Sam's voice heard in the car "Take care!"

As soon as the call ended, Sky slammed on the gas and the car sped off at very high speed. Sky knew it wouldn't be good to drive under pressure hence she decided to drive instead of letting Arlo.
