Twenty-two-year-old Athena Paulsen's life is a never-ending tragedy, but on the surface everything seems fine. A fine daughter, dependable sister, successful entrepreneur and renowned doctor. She is the envy of the town. But if you pull the curtain...
Finally!! I sighed in relief. Finally i am done with my cooking. The food looks presentable and delicious. I just hope that he likes it.
Anyway even if he doesn't like it's not my problem. I was sweating and smelly so i decided to take a shower and get ready for dinner. I have already spent 2 hours in cooking so i don't have much time to get ready.
I quickly took a shower and walked inside the closet to wear something appropriate cloth for dinner. I decided to wear a one shoulder baby pink dress. It reached till my knees and i looked pretty in it.
I have no interest in impressing anyone. I just need to look presentable. I did a simple makeup and paired my outfit with pink heels.

When i was satisfied by my look I walked downstairs and arranged the table. I kept all the food items on the table with cutlery. I even brought a expensive red wine from my cellar.
At sharp 8'o clock i heard the bell ring st that time i knew that Aiden has arrived. After few minutes he walked inside the dinning room. For the first time i realized that how tired he looked. There are dark circles under his eyes. He has taken off the blazer. First two buttons of shirt were opened and his sleeves he rolled till elbow.
He looked tired but handsome. He looks he is a model who walked out of some magazines. "Good evening Athena " he greeted "Evening, let's have dinner " i said.
I took my seat and signaled the maid to serve us the dinner. After serving us the maid walked out of the room giving us some privacy.
I took the first bite of the food and i can't help but ask him "How's the food?" "It's tasty but a bit spicy " he said while drinking some water. "You don't like spicy food " i asked. He shook his head in no. Which reminds me of someone who...Wait today i am not going to think about him at all. He is closed chapter of my life.
We ate our dinner in silence. I actually liked this silence until Aiden decided to open his mouth. "What do you want?" He asks "What are you talking about?" I asked "Why did you called me to have dinner with you?" He asks
"My brother found out about what happened in the morning so he kind of forced to invite you on dinner " i replied. "Is that the truth or as usual playing some kind of prank on me" he said with a chuckle.
I took a deep breath and decided to be honest with him "Look i don't have any person enmity from you. I just hate when people disturb my privacy " i said. He didn't said anything. "I am not used to have a personal bodyguard. Infact i don't want a personal bodyguard. I like a freedom a lot." I said
"So from past couple of days what you are doing is to actually punish me for been your personal bodyguard " he asked "Yea but i am not punishing you. I just want to resign from the post of my personal bodyguard" i said. I just hope he understands.
