Absolutely Love.

CHAPTER 14

~~Ace~~

"And you think what he's been transiting info sense before me and Cora meet" Theo nodded at me as my father started "but you did meet 7 years ago" Theo in stands up for the table saying "wait didn't you break off your friendship with Scott 7years ago, and after that you met Cora's brother".

That son of a bitch has been using me to give Scott wren information about me and my family.

"I didn't know you put flowers in your office" Theo pointed out, I look at my desk to see white roses in a vase, I look around and notice flowers almost everywhere, "I didn't ask for them to be put there".

I noticed something different about my office, but I didn't really focus much, I hear a knock on the door interrupting my thoughts, Lola the youngest maid in my house open the door holding a spray bottle.

She lifts it up giving me a sign, she starts spraying the flowers around the room as my brother started talking, "hold on a second" I say to him, "Lola!" I call out she turns looking at me confused.

"Why is there flowers in my office?" I ask, "oh Ms. Aria told me and the rest of the maids to put them around the house, she said in quotation (the house is decorated like my husband's personality, and it needs to change) so we changed it, look now it looks like humans actually live in here, no offense", "some taken Lola" I say before Theo bursted out laughing, my dad looked at the floor a smile came on his face, my brother chuckling.

Lola is like a lil sister to me, she started working for me when she was 14, her mother Fray was like a mother to me growing up, she took care of me when my mother was off attending parties and starting her own company.

"What do you want me to do about it!!!" She said as a frowned look got on her face, "I don't know take the flowers down" I say, "umm no. She if you told any of the maids to take the flowers down she will just put new one and the maids won't listen to you because she said especially these words (I don't give a rats ass what that sad man says about my flowers they will stay and he will have to deal with it) so Acey deal with it" she said sticking her tongue out as she ran to me and sprayed water in my face.

"Hey!!" I yell, "byee" she said as she closed the door behind her, Theo was rolling on the ground at this point out of laughter, after realizing how pissed off he got settled down wiping his tears away "aww, come on Acey cheer up, look at the bright side, your house looks like an actual human lives here" I glare at him, he gave me a cheeky smile.

Motherfucker.

~~~~~

I walk into my bedroom, taking my jacket off, followed by my blazer my eyes land on Aria, her hair falling on her back, I took off my vest, button up, before my pants fell, i stood in my trucks, picking up my clothes, I enter the bathroom, throwing the dirty clothes in the laundry basket.

Then took a shower.

Setting in my bed, my eyes felt so heavy because of the exhaustion week I had.

Because of my job rest is out the picture, me and Aria slept with our back from each other, I slept on the side of the bed that was closer to the door and the gun.

~~~~~

I recognized Gia's cry's, I push myself up as I walked towards the door, I heard something loud drop in the nursery, the door wide open I see from my room, the light that I don't turn on is one, silly toy sounds comes from the nursery.

I walk slowly, a sound makes my heart race in unexpected speed, a ballet dancer box that Cora used to play with she entered the nursery, and it was the sound that played when she almost....

My legs start walking in a fast pace, and now I was running.

Gia's cry's triggered to run even faster, the image of Cora holding that knife can to my head, I stopped in front of the nursery.

My muscles relaxed my legs feel a since of relaxing, my heart beats slowly down at the sight of Aria in a rocking chair feeding Gia with a bottle of freshly made milk.

The room was filled with silence and peace, she looks up at me and smiled softly, comforting my heart and worries.

"Were you running?" She said smiling, I shake my head with ease, "I don't know what you're talking about" I reply, "oh yeah Mr. Vanderpool, you're that clueless" I laugh.

God do I love...

The sight of her.
