Chapter 223: Monroe Grayson is fired


    Noah''s n was sessful. He was provoking Monroe to provoke Aria to know whether she ignores it or prove it.


    "I''ll give a demo, you can try outter. I wish you in advance, all the best." Aria gave her a faint smile but Monroe got goosebumps from it.


    She suddenly felt like she might be hurt if Aria proves her theory.


    Aria walked straight up to n who was leaning on a table checking office emails in his mobile bored from the party without Aria next to him.


    He was surprised thinking why Aria went to him but Aria faced him with a faint smile. She didn''t speak a word and fell back.


    Whoever saw her felt their heart in their throat.


    Noah regretted provoking her.


    If Aria wanted to prove, shouldn''t she fall front so that n could hold her?


    He knew n wouldn''t touch or save anybody even if they towards on him.


    Noah freaked out seeing her fall back. "Arrie"


    He instinctively called in loud pitch running towards her but he was very far to reach and hold her.


    Everyone''s attention turned to Aria unsure how she fell back or what had happened that caused Aria to fall back. but it was no doubt a suicidal fall that would hurt her severely.


    n''s eyes widened as soon as Aria tilted back. He took action swiftly and held her in his arms before she could even touch the ground.


    Aria apologized right away looking at his concerned face, "Sorry."


    n chided her understanding she did it on purpose, "You fool, how many times do I have to tell you not to think about hurting yourself?"


    Aria responded as she stood up with his help. "I trust you stupid."


    n knew she trusts him to the extent she would do anything but he hated how she keeps herself in danger by trusting him.


    He controlled himself from embracing her to calm himself and sighed internally seeing his woman safe and sound.


    Anyhow he couldn''t help himself and pinched her cheeks hard as punishment.


    Noah who went to them, knocked on her head, "Are you freaking nuts? I almost had a heart attack."


    Aria knew she scared most of them. She rubbed her head and nced at the paling Monroe Grayson.


    If nobody understood what she was doing, Monroe knew it. She even felt like Aria was telling her to give up before it''s toote.


    But it was already toote.


    Jeremy took Monroe to the center of the stage to get everyone''s attention.


    "Dad, are you sure n agreed for engagement?"


    n hadn''t epted but nobody even asked him to hear the rejection.


    Jeremy had decided himself that n had agreed because n didn''t react to anything about people talking and rumors in the media.


    Jeremy shushed her. "Shh, just focus on the engagement. I''m fulfilling your dream."


    Her dream? No, he wanted her to marry n so that he could use him for Grayson''s family business.


    Until Monroe gets engaged, he couldn''t p Aria for whatever she was doing so he wanted toplete the engagement ceremony.


    It was his n to celebrate O''s birthday with Curtis. He purposefully talked out with Ford and O for celebrating that Sunday so that they could celebrate grandly.


    As soon as Curtis''s birthday topic raised, he pushed his main intention to Ford''s head.


    Even though his n was sessful, he hated how Aria included everywhere, and also he didn''t like how Amelia reacted when he spoke about engagement, when she saw the arrangements, how Amelia was ignoring his business friends and associates.


    Anyway, his main aim for the day was n and Monroe''s engagement.


    Ford who passed by Aria, "Disgusting."


    Aria ignored what he said and saw him taking n to the center which gave time for Rian to twist her hand to back while Eva twisted her ear.


    Eva said through clenched teeth, "You got the guts."


    "Little devil, if you want to crack open your head, I can help you with that."


    They wouldn''t dare to free fall backside. Leave about back, they wouldn''t try front either.


    Noah didn''t add because she did it because of him.


    Levi had to pull Aria away from the group to save his President whose face had turned red from the pain and gave her water to drink, "Daring."


    Aria grinned at him but made a pitiful face at the other three to let her off and she still has to cate n.


    Eva and Noah noticed n and Monroe standing together. Amelia and Rowan were panicked but nothing much showed on their faces.


    They knew they should trust him unquestioningly.


    The wealthy families thought Aria was scheming to get n back but failed miserably seeing n standing next to Monroe Grayson.


    But n was standing there because Ford took him. He was really impressed by the guts of the Grayson family who were doing everything as they wished without asking him.


    Eva strode front pulling Aria ahead standing in akimbo. If Aria wasn''t holding her, she would have jumped on Monroe for trying to covet her goddess''s husband.


    Panicked Roxy, stood by Aria, "Arrie, I thought I am bold but I''m nothing in front of you. Why did you fall back? What if brother-inw waste to hold you? By the way, why is he getting engaged? What is going on here? I''m not getting anything. Is this engagement required for your act? I think you shouldn''t allow..."


    Aria gulped seeing her continue hence she held her to rx her first.


    Aria wasn''t sure what was going on in n''s mind either but she knew he wouldn''t wear the ring or put on the ring to Monroe and most importantly, he was still wearing the ring from their church wedding.


    Amelia and Rian''s n wasn''t that. They couldn''t understand what was going on.


    Suddenly there was amotion near the entrance of the hall to see the media rushing inside while the security failed to stop.


    Jeremy wickedly smiled thinking reporters were smart and reached at the right time.


    n signaled to let them be at the corner when the mor was too much.


    "President Morgan is really marrying his secretary."


    "If I knew he wanted a simple girl, I would have sent my daughter to work under him."


    "Even though President Cooper has a brain, looks, and money, at the end of the day, she is all alone."


    "Do you think President Cooper will dare to create a scene in front of the media?"


    The gossip was nonstop.


    O was very happy to know Morgan and Grayson were having a close rtionship.


    She knew Aria and she didn''t hate her. So she called her near.


    Aria was perplexed but she still went to her, "Mrs.Gray?"


    She lightly rubbed Aria''s head, "Child, It''s always destiny. Probably you will get a better man who will take care of you well. Don''t be sad."


    Aria smiled amiably, "I already have that man who is better than best. Rest assured."


    O thought Aria loves somebody. "That''s great then."


    Aria smiled and walked back to Eva.


    Isaac, Noah, Eva, Aria, Roxy, and Rian had no idea what was going on.


    Aria raised her brows at Nathan but he just gave a faint smile at her. Only Nathan knew how happy he was when he got to know n and Aria were still together.


    Jeremy started speaking in excitement, "Thank you all foring here to share our happiness. Let''s start the engagement ceremony..."


    n''s confused yet piercingly cold domineering tone sounded, "Who is getting engaged tonight?"


    His voice wasn''t high but clear and audible to maximum people.


    The Gray family members froze but Jeremy turned out to be shameless. He spoke awkwardly but his voice had cracked and trembled under his gaze.


    "Hahaha...n, it isn''t a joking time. Complete the ceremony."


    n saw a Grayson family member holding a Couple rings from the Skyline Jewelry''s new collection at him to take thedy''s ring.


    n looked at Nathan who went ahead and handed an envelope to Monroe Grayson.


    "Secretary Grayson, you are fired."


    Aria''s lips tilted up with the other few. The rest were in shock.


    After a few seconds, Jeremy''s shamelessness reached a little above than the previous time, "n, Moon would have resigned tomorrow if you don''t want her to work."


    n didn''t bother to speak.


    Nathan''s tone was loud, clear, and crisp. "Monroe Grayson is fired for misleading her rtionship with President Morgan without rifying it."


    "President Grayson, Morgan Industry is pulling back our support from yourpany. This the official agreement for ending our contract. You will receive the Lawyer notice tomorrow which will have detailed information about the total fine you will be paying for misusing Morgan Industries resources."


    Nathan had to stuff another envelope to Jeremy who was frozen.


    There was pin-drop silence seeing how things had developed.


    The reporters continuously captured pictures and recorded videos in satisfaction for getting something juicy to write.


    n''s eyes moved towards Aria to see her winking, sending a flying kiss.


    His lips subconsciously tilted up looking at her making adorable faces until Noah smacked her head to stop before anybody sees them.


    Ford stuttered, "Aren''t... Aren''t you getting... engaged?"
