Chapter 146: Permission to bully my wife
Alan didn't send Aria back with Rian and tagged her along for a few more days.
...
After knowing Isaac was back in country A and was at Morgan Entertainment, Aria went to pick him letting Alan attend the meeting in the Skyline Industries.
She entered in a low profile in her simple formal dress and ballerina when she entered the company. She had just asked the reception about Isaac but somebody sneered behind her.
"These little girls... They just think they can get Senior Ross just because they are young."
Aria turned to see the celebrity who was raised to fame after Isla Turner reached the bottomless pit. Aria felt like success gets inside the head for the celebrities after small-term fame.
Hearing that, the receptionist didn't tell which was Isaac's manager's office either.
"Call the security and send her out." That celebrity named Ava ordered and went inside haughtily.
The security quickly reached near Aria and was about to ask her to leave, he identified her immediately, "President Cooper?"
Aria merely nodded and spoke when call connected, "Isaac, I'm at the reception."
The security asked her to have a seat and brought her water which obviously caught the eye of Ava from the first floor.
Her agent took the cue and howled, "Security, don't you know, fans aren't allowed inside."
Why they are getting offended?
Because that actress Ava was in love with Isaac. She had purposefully postponed her shoot and reached the company to meet Isaac.
Seeing Aria beautiful and elegant, importantly very young, they thought Ava might lose the chance to be with Isaac who might like to meet his pretty fan. But however it might be, Isaac wasn't least bit interested in anybody.
Aria saw the troubled face of security and asked him to go back to work without worrying.
Isaac happened to reach the same floor and waved his hand at her actioning 'I'm coming.'
Aria nodded with a smile back as greeting. The actress who noticed him quickly followed Isaac to the elevator.
"Senior Ross!"
Isaac nodded as acknowledgment.
That actress continued like a demure lady, "Senior Ross, I got a good script. I heard you haven't taken any drama yet. I think you should go through it once. You will definitely like it."
Isaac rejected with a straight face and walked towards Aria, "No thanks."
That actress knew other than acting together, getting Isaac's time was next to impossible. "Senior Ross, why don't go through it once? You will really like it. How about I narrate you the story tonight after your work?"
She quickly signaled her agent to send Aria aside to make space for Isaac.
"You... Didn't we ask you to leave? Go..."
Isaac acted quicker before that agent's hand reached Aria who was ready to snap the agent's fingers if he dared to touch her.
Ava and her agent froze. They heard Isaac's oppressing tone and his cold eyes made them shiver. "Don't you dare touch her."
Aria chuckled returned his friendly hug, "Isaac, the role I chose you will cent percent suits you. Except for Skyline, I'm going to invest too."
Aria had seen a script of a military officer. When she had heard about the story from a writer and director in a meeting where she was actually time passing, half a way through the story, before the manager, she had agreed to invest seventy percent from her and Skyline Industries suggesting Isaac for the role.
Isaac showed a displeased look, "It's just a cold and emotionless character. Why are you so excited about it?"
Aria pouted, "Fine don't act. You looked so cool just now. Why do you want to be a man for the girls who just want to have one nightstand? I want to change it to 'Dream husband' or 'Dream man to marry'."
Isaac walked out with her laughing at her exaggeration. He hadn't experimented much with roles because he wanted a strong footing in the Entertainment. Now he has it, his agent and he was searching for a challenging role and Aria sent him the perfect script which he liked.
Both exited ignoring staggered people around them. It was the first time many of them had seen him laughing.
The security didn't want to offend the agent and the actress Ava hence he apologized to them for not following the order. He also informed them why he didn't follow their order making the actress stumble and stutter scaring that she couldn't be like Isla Turner.
But to Aria, she was just an insignificant person and even forgot about her. After reaching the restaurant, the duo ordered and they were served by the time Alan reached.
Half a way through lunch, Aria received a call from Eva. Aria excused herself out so that Isaac shouldn't feel awkward.
"Eva"
"Arrie, come and pick me."
Aria furrowed her brows hearing Eva's hoarse voice. "Stop crying. I'm coming."
Aria hung up hearing her response. She went inside and informed, "Sorry, It's urgent and I need to go. My friend needs me."
Only Alan understood 'My friend' was Eva whereas Isaac thought must be some friend. Isaac nodded in understanding, "Don't drive fast."
Aria hummed, "I will give you permission to bully your wife today."
Alan was speechless.
Isaac chuckled hearing her and saw her hurriedly leave. "Did anybody tried to harm Aria again?"
Alan unhurriedly briefed.
"What about her defense skills?"
"Green belt but.."
"Wow! That..."
"... Two days her limbs swollen after the test." Alan finished before Isaac could appreciate Aria.
Isaac burst into laughter. "Why didn't you stop her when she couldn't? That poor little thing. Stop torturing her."
Alan didn't respond. If he knew she was in pain, he wouldn't have let her complete the test. But his little fool didn't flinch and gave her all before crying in his arms saying it was so painful.
Hence he stopped pressuring her to learn too.
--
Aria picked Eva whose eyes were swollen. "Where do you want to go?"
"Far away. I don't want to come back."
Aria sighed and handed her water to drink. She drove straight to the Cooper mansion confirming the housekeeper Sophia was present.
Aria consoled Eva without knowing the reason.
