Aidenâs pov âJust give me her address as soon as possible. âI told Johnny, my private investigator.
Johnny promised to get me Sophieâs address within the hour and when that hour did come, Sophieâs address was written down on a piece of paper in my handwriting.
I placed the pen down on the paper smirking in triumph.
Sophieâs address.
Maybe when I get there Iâd spank her ass for even thinking she could just leave like that.
I shake my head.
What the hell was wrong with me? Iâm supposed to be angry at her, not turned on by her defiance.
I picked up the paper and took my jacket.
Iâm going there right away.
I donât even care if sheâs home or not.
Iâll wait for her if I have to I was in the midst of fixing my jacket when a knock sounds at my door.
âSir?â Noelâs tiny voice flutters through the door.
I groan lowly and rolled my eyes.
âCome in,â I said loud enough for her to hear She opens the door slowly, probably still threatened when I flung the files at her earlier.
It was her dang fault for not cleaning up the mess fast enough.
I know I was being extreme today and that was all because of that pretty fucking woman that was still messing with my head even though I am supposed to hate her with my entire being.
âOh youâre all ready Mr.
Xavier.
Good.â She nods.â Theyâre already waiting for you in the meeting room.â
I froze.
Who the hell was she talking about? âWhoâs waiting for me?â I asked, already getting irritated that Sophie consumed my mind so much that I perhaps had forgotten about a meeting I was supposed to be having today.
âThe Groupon Tech Ceo and his men.â Noel said while jotting down something on a notepad.
âReschedule,â I said tightly.
I was going to Sophieâs apartment, I donât have time to sit around and listen to men talk for more than half the day.
âI canât sir.
We rescheduled last week and theyâve come all the way from Taiwan.
If you miss this one, the chairman will not be as forgiving and happy.â
gritted my teeth.
Great, fucking great.
It looks like I would have to wait to go over to Sophieâs.
I nodded stiffly and for more than five hours listened to business ideas and how Harrington.co would benefit from collaborating with Groupon Tech.
I admit, most of the time I was up in my head, thinking about Sophie and how I was going to drag her back to Harrington.co even though by the time I get there, office hours might be closed.
Sophieâs pov âWeâre home!â Mila sang and I peeled my eyes open, groaning as I wiped off the drool trailing down the corner of my mouth.
I stretched, muting the movie that probably had replayed more than five times.
If Mila was here then that meant it was already three in the afternoon.
I slept long.
I turn around in the chair, beaming as my eyes fell on Ashtonâs cute little face.
He notices me right away and his tiny lips split into a cute smile.
My heart squeezes as he looks so much like Aiden while smiling.
âMama!â He squealed.
âAsh bug,â I said fondly, getting off the sofa.
âAsh down.â He told Mila so that sheâd place him down on his feet.
He quickly runs over to me, giggling with his arms open.
âCareful Ash,â Mila shout as he nearly trips over the rug.
My heart jumps and I quickly meet him halfway before he manages to trip again.
When heâs in my arms, I hold him close and buried my nose in his hair.
He smells so good.
He smells like coconut.
SILI âI love you bug,â I whispered kissing his hair.
He giggles, throwing his arms around my neck.
He may be the exact replica of his father, but Ash was going to be better than Aiden.
And I was going to make sure of it.
âWoah.
What happened to you? You look like poop?â Mila asked, removing the scrunchie in her hair.
âBad day.â I sighed heavily while picking up Ash even though he protested.
He was still my baby whether he liked it or not.
Mila winced.
âDidnât go well?â
I shook my head no.
âBernard didnât accept the resignation letter.â
Mila looks confused.
âWhat? Why? Did you not tell him why you wanted to quit?â
I shook my head, hugging Ash to me.
God, I love my little bug.
âNo.
I couldnât exactly tell him my kidâs father was his boss and I was uncomfortable with working in the same building with him.
Besides, it wouldnât matter, I donât think heâd accept it anyway.â I sighed, rubbing my palm on Ashtonâs back.
âAnd why the hell not? If you want to quit, then he should let you.
Itâs absurd that heâs not accepting the resignation letter.â Mila flung her hands out comically.
I tear my gaze away from her and wince.â Itâs not exactly him whoâs not accepting the resignation letter.
Itâs Aiden.â
Milaâs eyes widen.
âAiden!? I thought he didnât remember you?â I gave out a little snort.
âThatâs what I thought until I went to his office with the intent of shoving the letter down his throat.â
Mila looked at me in amusement and snorted.
âWhat?â I asked her.
âOh nothing.
But shoving a letter down his throat? Where is my best friend that condemns these kinds of things?â She asked in blatant amusement.
I rolled my eyes and smiled.
âWell did you shove it down his throat? Or at least tell him a piece of your mind?â She asked.
I cringe.
âNo I didnât shove it down his throat, but I did try to give him a piece of my mind,â I admitted.
I did try, until Aiden kissed me and everything just flew out of the window.
Mila looks at me fixedly, searching my eyes for answers.
âSo, then, what happened when you did?â I rip my gaze from hers and settle them on the white wall.
It looks like it needs a fresh coat of paint.
I can feel the heat of a blush crawling up my neck to settle in my cheeks and knew I must look as bright as a fire truck right now.
âOh, you didnât...
did you....â Mila trailed off in confusion before her tone turned into accusation.
âOh my God! You did!â She blasted loudly.
I wince, covering Ashâs ears at her loud tone.
âMila, too loud!â I hissed.
She cringed but approaches me and Ash with wide confused and questioning gaze.
âYou naughty girl.
You slept with him?â I winced, still covering Ashâs ears.
He didnât need to hear about his mommy sleeping with his daddy.
âWell?â Mila asked impatiently.
I nodded while wincing.
âYes.â
Mila looks stunned.
âWell, I knew this would happen eventually but not so soon!â She giggles but when she sees that I hadnât joined her, her brows furrowed.
The Girl He Craves novel (Sophie and Aiden)
ï¤Chapter 54 âBut why arenât you happy about it? I mean Iâm not a fan of Aiden, especially with all the crap he put you through in high school, but now you three can be a family I snorted, my voice sad as I cut her off.
âWhen we were done, he told me I was a mistake.
Also said I was still easy.â Milaâs face switched to anger and hatred.
âThat asshole.â I gave her a pointed look and she cringed while murmuring an apology.
âBut seriously what a D.I.C.
K.
âShe spelled out the word in hopes that it would pass my scrutiny.
I rolled my eyes yet nodded in agreement.
Aiden was after all, the biggest dick.
I mean his dick was big but did his personality have to be such a huge one? Perhaps, I should probably stop thinking about his dick The door handle suddenly shifts and both Mila and I turn our heads to face it.
Must be Ria back from her photoshoot.
The door swings open and my heart drops in my stomach painfully.
Because behind Ria, stood a very tall and powerful Aiden.
âThereâs a hot guy here for you Sophie!â She chirped, swinging the door even wider so heâd enter, while she moves the keys out of the keyhole in the door.
My tongue gets tied and Iâm rooted right where I stood with fear in my soul.
Because as soon as Ria said those words, Aidenâs gaze automatically fell on me and then on Ashton.
