Chapter 137: Stubborn and strong-headed
Since the investigation of Roxy Stephen included some information rted to Aria, Nathan asked their men to be extra careful which took little more time.

However, Aria asked Eva, she didn''t say anything about what had happened. On the surface, she was back to the flirty tongued god of the goddess.
Eva thought Aria would feel bad for her and might rebuke Isaac hence she decided to keep the things to herself.

Aria got to know there was a conference by the Orion who was the youngest phnthropist and an investor. He was called as a Golden mind in the stock market. He never got poached by anybody and donates all his ie from investment in the stock market for the good cause.
The conference was in a different country and n had already stopped her thrice from attending others'' conference but she wanted to attend this one.
While having lunch on Sunday, Aria asked Rowan, "Pop, please convince n to let me attend the conference this time."
Rowan forced a smile, "Arrie, if you can''t convince, it''s impossible for us."
Seeing Rowan finish lunch, Aria went around him, "You are his father. Order him. It''s that simple."
Amelia chuckled. "Arrie, do you know n''s reaction if Rowan orders?"
Aria never heard Rowan order so she curiously shook her head, "Other than me nobody orders him. So I don''t know."
Rian patted her back, "That''s my Little devil. Admonish him daily. He cut off my monthly expenses for not painting."
"Check your ount, I sent your allowance many days back." Aria ran next to Amelia waiting for her reply.
Rian saw the amount of transfer from n''s ount. If it was from Aria ount, he would cent percent return hence she had transferred from n''s ount threatening n if he cancels, she would send to his ount from her ount and from his ount to Rian.
Amelia acted, "He will look at Rowan like this," Amelia made a straight face seeing Rowan, "Oh"
Aria rolled on the couch when she finished. "Mum, you look funny acting like n. He looks captivating."
The trio looked at her in amusement seeing her openly praise her fiance.
Aria realized what she just did and tried to sneak away but mother and son caught her and teased her endlessly asking her to praise him then listed all adjectives like, <em>''Is he bewitching?''</em>
<em>''Is he entrancing?''</em>
<em>''Is he charming?''</em>
<em>''Is he mesmerizing?''</em>
... and so on until she looked like a delish tomato.
Aria whined, "I will start crying if you two continue."
The duoughed while Rowan was smiling.
Aria calmed down brought up the topic again, "Pop, help me out... How about I sneak off without telling n?"
"No!" The trio said in unison. Amelia continued, "Arrie, he will dump us to the bin if you go alone and something happens."
Aria pouted, "He will not agree to send me. Pop and Dad always took me with them. Your son is so annoying. He sweet talks me out making me agree before I could even realize. I couldn''t even get angry atst."
Amelia asked her curiously, "How does he sweet-talk?"
Aria was staggard, "I''m going."
Rian wasughing when Amelia tried to stop her to ask about her son. She really wanted to know if n could sweet talk.
Rowan realized Aria was really annoyed this time. She never brought anything to them asking them to help her out and he also knew she was always interested in the conferences rted to the stock market and investments.
Seeing the duo making fun of Aria, he didn''t tell them anything and went to Aria''s room who was frustrated and was clicking on herptop buttons hard.
"Aria"
Aria kept herptop away and adjusted her mood quickly, "Pop"
Rowan sat on her study chair making her sit back on the bed, "I know you wanted to learn for Oliver and wanted to do your best. But n doesn''t want you to worry about this earning, business and stuff."
"I know, Pop." Aria pouted as she responded.
"Why don''t you live worry-free now? you can always learn itter" Rowan didn''t want Aria and n to fight over it and tried to convince her knowing why n was stopping her.
"Pop, I know I can learn itter. But I''m quite free now. n is very busy with twopanies. I want to finish the basic learning process quicker before I take over thepany. Hence when I start working, I will not have extra workload and n will not have twopany workloads either so it will let us spend quality time too. If I start learning that time, the current situation will reverse. I will be busy and he will be free. So why not both work hard now and manage easilyter."
Rowan needed time to digest what she said. He really doubted if she was eighteen.
Aria saw Rowan emotionless and motionless, "Pop, what happened? Did I say wrong?"
Rowan shook his head as he sighed, "No, I''m doubting if you are a little school girl or some well-experienceddy. Arrie, you aren''t wrong and n isn''t wrong too. Importantly you two are too stubborn and strong-headed for me to convince."
Aria smiled to make him rx, "It''s alright Pop, don''t worry. I will talk to n once. Let''s me see how it goes."
Rowan nodded and got up. He adoringly rubbed her head before leaving. He was actually scared Aria and n might start to fight this time seeing her headstrong.
Rowan decided to try to talk to n. He got ready quickly and went to the Morgan industries giving some sense to Amelia and Rian to be careful about Aria''s mood and stop making fun each time.
Seeing Aria''s awful mood, Rian took her out with Noah and Eva while n was irritated knowing Aria didn''t talk to him directly.
"... n, you are thinking about only Aria whereas she thinking about both of you. How long has it been that you spent rxing and quality time with her without bothering about work? Aria is very understanding never demanded anything thinking you have to work hard because of her. Do you think she will not wish to spend time with you like a normal girl? It''s just a conference for one day and a day to travel, let her go... I will not disturb you anymore."
Rowan didn''t wait and left his office seeing his cold indifferent face.
Nathan who entered inside to keep a file on desk gulped seeing n livid before running out.
