Chapter 112: Hide and seek
Aria merrily entered her mansion to see the cooper mansion housekeeper tearing up. "Aunty Sophia, if you cry, I will go back." Aria hugged her.
Aria many times spoke with her on phone and called her to Morgan mansion but to look after Cooper villa and mansion, she hadn't gone to the Morgan mansion.
Sophia smiled seeing Aria pout, "I missed you."
Alan was amused to see every Cooper mansion and villa maids talking to her jovially. Isaac who waited for her to speak gave up and took Alan upstairs to show his room.
"Don't you think Aria is loved by each one?" Isaac commented seeing all maids laugh with Aria.
Alan smiled seeing her happy.
Isaac generally teased, "This room is Aria's room. Too bad you can't share since your paren..."
Isaac's mouth was wide open in shock seeing him enter and close the door. Amelia who had heard his comment while passing by patted on Isaac's back.
Isaac quickly made up an excuse, "Alan wanted to check the arrangements."
Amelia burst into laughter seeing him defend his friend. "Do you think he is scared of us? He always abducted my weeny daughter in law to his room." She sighed in dismay, "Disappointing is that I always saw him working and Aria resting. Your dumb friend doesn't even cuddle my little girl to sleep."
Isaac smiled awkwardly. 'Aunty Amelia, why will he do that in front of you?'
"Aunty Amelia, how about you leaving your muddled son and adopting me as your son? I will follow you around." Isaac loved Amelia who was outgoing and full of fun.
Amelia nodded in approval, "Then let's change your surname tomorrow and kick him out."
The duo continued to joke around until Rowan took his wife to get ready.
Isaac sent Alan's cloth to Aria's room and was leaving, he saw Eva entering Aria's room without knock so he quickly stopped, "Eva... Alan is in the room."
Eva saw his tensed face and sounded normal trying her best "This is Arrie's room."
"The duo shares bedroom whenever they are together." He was nonchalant.
Eva was surprised forgetting about their awkwardness between them, "Wow! My wife is on fast forward."
Aria who had met all and checked luxurious arrangements reached her room but got pinned on the wall.
Isaac looked at two girls in astonishment.
"My goddess! Why don't I know you share the bedroom with my love rival? Didn't you abandon me too soon?"
Aria glanced at Isaac and glared at Eva. Isaac spilled the beans, "Aunty Amelia told me."
Aria was shocked, "Mum knows?"
Isaac chuckled as he left towards his room.
Eva controlled laughing at her face and leaned on the wall to whisper, "So?"
"So?"
Eva hugged the suit bag which she had in her hands and teased, "My wife lost her chastity so soon. My love rival must be in love with you tasting yummy meat."
Aria's neck twitched when Eva traced her neckline. Aria snatched the suit bag, "Dirty-minded God."
Eva made a pitiful face, "Why are you conservative? You are soo orthodox." Eva knew well that her friend was old fashioned.
Eva continued seeing her blush, "Don't make prince sleep on the couch. If you can't..."
Both heard hum followed by, "Listen to my love rival. She is smarter than you."
Eva left chuckling seeing Aria glaring at Alan. "Go to your room and sleep on the bed. What are you doing here?"
She entered inside to see a beautiful blush pink gown forgetting she was angry on Alan. She couldn't get to go near the dress because Alan pushed her to the bathroom. He got ready and saw her taking dress silently coming out wrapped in a bathrobe.
He didn't tease her.
When she changed and returned, he helped her to dry and style hair without caring for the peeking Amelia, Isaac, and Rian.
The trio near the door looked at each other seeing Alan help Aria wear her heels. They couldn't trust their own eyes seeing Alan do all that.
After getting ready, Aria chased after Alan to change his black blazer to bright red one which she had designed. The trio lips twitched looking at them behave like kids.
Aria had enough and looked grim, "Fine, don't wear it. I will give it to Isaac. Hmph."
Isaac's lips twitched uncontrollably.
Rian opened the door as he reprimanded, "Little devil! Did you forget me?"
Amelia and Isaac were too late to hide and smiled awkwardly at them. Rian snatched the blazer which was taken by Alan eventually.
Aria tried to take back but Alan grimly spoke, "I will wear."
He had heard her saying she prepared long back for him and asked Morgan mansion driver to deliver after knowing they were celebrating her birthday. So he wasn't ready to let anybody else wear it.
Rian snorted, "Hey! Little Devil, did you forget me as soon as you got my brother?"
Every year Aria designed his and Noah's birthday outfit, "Why? Don't you want your birthday outfit?"
"But you designed so many things for him." Rian was grim...
Aria and he continued to banter leaving Isaac and Amelia speechless. At last, Rian made her say, "Fine, I will enjoy with you guys. Happy?"
Rian internally celebrated and saw his brother who had changed to the red blazer. Aria who saw Amelia, Isaac and Rian's expression turned around to see Alan who was chic.
Alan smiled looking at her smile ignoring the rest. Aria changed his hairstyle before complimenting cheekily, "Sassy!"
The trio coughed lightly to get their attention, "Fine! We are leaving. Finish being affectionate and come downstairs."
Aria was perplexed, 'I just did his hairstyle. Mum, what affectionate are you talking about?'
Rian snorted, "Hello! I and Noah will bring her downstairs. Bro, leave."
Seeing Alan glare, Rian stood on Aria's words, "Didn't you hear Arrie saying she will be with us? Leave ... leave."
Alan left with his mother and Isaac.
All guests were already present who was in shock looking at Alan who looked very young and snazzy. Aria's classmate cheered. Eva ignored Isaac's gaze.
After two minutes, Aria went downstairs holding Noah and Rian's arms who were enjoying everyone's attention.
Aria was wearing a high-low blush-colored gown. Her dress trail swept the floor showing off her slender flawless legs that were delectable. A delicate smile added a perfect touch to her attractive dainty face.
She looked beyond beautiful as her eyes twinkled with the diamonds on her neck.
Isaac was complimenting Alan for having Aria as he drank but he froze when he saw Aria's smile at Alan who was looking at her. He saw a pleasing and ecstatic smile on Alan's face seeing her smile.
He nudged Alan after recovering, "You guys... are so much in love with each other." He had spent a good quality of time with Aria and too large time with Alan so he understood those smiles were only for each other.
Alan glanced at Isaac before commenting, "How long are you two going to play hide and seek?"
Isaac started his award-winning acting, "What hide and seek?"
"Oscar-winning expression." He left towards his parents and Aria to greet some guests so that Aria doesn't have to drink with them.
