Chapter 11: Her guardian


    nid on his bed as he thought about his conversation with Rian


    <em>''Why should I have a girlfriend to know how to take care of girls? It''s justmon sense Bro."</em>


    <em>''Which dumb said I hate that little Devil? Bro! You can not understand us with your philomath''s brain.''</em>


    <em>''Fine! We kind of have a care-hate friendship. She or I may say hundreds of thousands screwing up words to each other but she always cared about me. Never mind, it''s not your cup of coffee''</em>


    <em>...</em>


    He flipped on the bed for sometime before falling asleep.


    ---


    Next day


    n saw Rian in uniform and Aria in casuals sitting at the dining table when he went down after getting ready. He didn''t speak and started to eat hearing Rian chatter and Aria''s hums.


    When he heard Rian ask, "Aren''t youing to school? Go and change." He raised his head to see Aria shaking her head.


    Rian was going on about how she wouldn''t be rusticated but n held her hand and walked towards the exit. Aria looked at n as she jogged. She couldn''t understand what''s wrong with n or his misogyny was too serious.


    Rian thought that they might have other work hence she wasn''ting. "Bro! Do you think Little Devil has long legs like you to take long strides?"


    Aria helplessly turned to Rian but n suddenly stopped and turned to her which made her bump into him.


    Rianughed at them, "Bro, you will die single." he held Aria''s shoulder and took her out as n followed them. Thetter thought his younger brother was a womanizer hence he was good with girls which he never cared about.


    Nathan drove them to school. Aria was sitting in the car when n opened the door and took her to the teacher''s office room holding a book.


    Aria felt her head throb seeing n doing things without telling her anything and dragging her all the time.


    Rian noticed it and paused to go with them. "Bro! What''s going on?"


    n didn''t speak and he kicked open the office room door before entering. Rian instantly enraged seeing Teacher Bell and charged towards him but n held his cor, "You will get that chance. Have patience."


    Rian''s lips tilted up hearing n''s sinister tone.


    Nathan brought the principal to the office room while all the teachers greeted n. Teacher Bell was shivering at his ce.


    n went ahead holding Aria''s wrist and spoke, "Mr.Bell! I heard you asked Ms.Cooper to get her parents. I''m her guardian. So speak the reason. Let me know."


    Rian was enjoying n''s domination. Aria looked at n nkly. She didn''t know n was her guardian. She thought Rowan was the one


    n looked at her and his hand subconsciously rubbed her head. He was actually proud to call himself her guardian.


    Teacher Bell stuttered but he couldn''t make himself say anything.


    n called, "Ms. Hudson"


    Aria''s home teacher went ahead as she heard n, "I''m sure, this man doesn''t have any proof of his fake allegation. If I prove, Aria didn''t copy, will that satisfy all the teachers?"


    The principal stuttered, "President Morgan! That''s not required. Let''s leave this. I have already reprimanded the teacher."


    n red at the principal before handing the advanced university mathematical book to Mr.Bell. "Choose a question." He ordered.


    Aria looked at n again. She had solved that book a year back and only Oliver knew about it. She understood n had checked her study in the vi.


    n pulled a chair for Aria and made her sit.


    Teacher Bell didn''t dare to dy. He randomly opened the book and kept it on the table. n quickly scribbled the same question on two papers and handed one to Aria with a pen and stuffed another one to the Teacher Bell telling him, "Solve! Now."


    Nobody dared to speak in the oppressing atmosphere excluding Rian. He tugged n, "How can Arrie solve it?"


    n didn''t respond anything to Rian. He handed the pen to Aria who was looking at him in perplex. She started to solve but Teacher Bell nkly looked at the beautiful handwriting on the paper as he didn''t understand the question itself.


    His mouth was wide open in shock seeing Aria Cooper solving effortlessly. It wasn''t only him, all had simr expressions excluding n. Nathan remembered n checking worksheets hence his doubt was solved instantly.


    Less than five minutes, Aria finished and looked at n. Thetter was surprised by her speed. He took the paper and book before cing it in the principal''s hand, "Check!"


    By their confidence, the Principal was sure Aria''s answer was correct but he couldn''t help but follow n''s order. Then he said loudly, "It''s perfect."


    Rian was praising Aira while n continued his business.


    n nodded at the principal. "So how are we handling this? False usation, hitting a student, defaming President Cooper. Nathan, if wein, Won''t he be imprisoned for a few years with a huge fine?"


    Nathan responded as he added one more, "Yes President Morgan. It will also unveil the poor education quality of the school and its reputation will be tarnished."


    The principal panicked, "No, No President Morgan, let this be under wrap. I" The principal knew he had to solve it without enraging n hence he decided to give up the teacher, "I will fire and cklist this teacher. He won''t be able to continue his career. No need to involve cops and the media. You studied here, how"


    While the principal continued, Teacher Bell was enraged hearing the principal and lunged on Aria, "You! Bitch, this all because of you."


    "Ahh..." Aria screamed trying to back off but a big palm pulled her around.


    Her heartbeats were quickened afraid of being hit but she realized she was in somebody''s embrace who held her close as if they were protecting her from everything.


    Rian mercilessly beat the teacher, "You still dare to touch Arrie. I haven''t paid back for yesterday yet."


    n held Aria who had started trembling. He rubbed her back head as he said in a gentle voice, "I''m here for you."


    Aria froze realizing it was n. She clutched her skirt and raised her head to see his face. His line made her feel warm from which her lips were slightly up.


    Infectiously his lips tilted up seeing her. Both were in the same position for quite a few seconds until the Home teacher shouted, "Rian! Stop."


    Aria turned around and went towards Rian releasing herself from n. Nathan was trying to stop Rian but thetter didn''t stop.


    All were thinking Rian would push Aria away too hence they anxiously looked at them.
