Chapter 572: The truth

Alan gently patted Arna's head and changed the topic, "What are you planning about your career?"

Arna suddenly sat up. She was thinking the same while showering. She wanted to ask their opinion, "Okay, I need your opinion. I am planning to terminate my contract from the company by paying the contract termination fee." A few million wasn't important to her but staying with her family.

Aria and Alan hadn't expected her to be so quick with her decision. They had thought she would take time but looks like she was more than eager to settle back with them.

"I was thinking of making use of my identity to get into Morgan entertainment." She slowly sat back in case her father smacks her head for thinking of taking advantage of being a Morgan.

But they were cool.

Aria giggled seeing her in disbelief, "Snow, don't forget who you are. You are not just Morgan, a supermodel."

Arna smiled seeing her mother proud. Since her modeling career is set, she went to her designing studio, "I am planning to shift my studio headquarters under Skyline."

Now the father and daughter eyed Aria who never gives lenience when it comes to business. Just as they guessed, Aria sounded nonchalant, however she didn't give any leeway, "Send the business proposal to the company. As Skyline never ventured on High fashion line, you have a chance."

Arna awkwardly smiled and shifted close to her father, "Your wife is still sexy and bossy." She muttered.

Alan shrugged, "I know."

Arna wanted to add, 'And you are the wife's slave.' Looking at his adoring gaze on his wife.

After discussing the other related things about her careers and stuff, Alan wanted to kick her out but Arna snuggled under the duvet next to her mother, "Good night, Dad."

Alan: "..."

Alan was ready to toss her out but the daughter of his wrapped herself around Aria. If he tries to toss her away, she will pull her mother out so he left after throwing a hard glance at his wife.

He went to the couch to sleep when he saw Arsh standing by the door shaking his head looking at Arna who couldn't afford to move away from Aria.

His look said to Alan that Arna might be thinking of everything as a dream and afraid to see things change in the morning.

He turned back to the two ladies and saw Arna peeling her eyes open at Aria as if she was going to disappear, clutching her arm afraid to see her go away.

'How did she survive all these years?' Alan thought. She looked like a terrified kitten.

Arsh who was at the door was next to Alan without making even the slightest noise.

If it wasn't Alan, others would have freaked out, "Dad, if I was a girl and I would have really taken the other side of Mom." He teased his father and earned a death glare.

Just like how Arsh had entered without notice, he left making no sound.

Alan laid on the couch and dozed off finally releasing the worry he had for so many years. The first time he had a faint smile even though he felt void without his wife next to him.

Aria started patting Arna's arm just like in the past and chose a simple topic to speak to her when Arna kept staring at her.

Snow, who was thinking everything might be one of her dreams again, soon dozed off hearing Aria's mellow voice.

Aria breathed a sigh once Arna went to deep slumber.

If she had checked Naira and Arna's room in the hotel, Arna wouldn't have suffered so much. Aria too blamed herself for the events, feeling they were careless. She hoped she paid the price for it.

Getting off the bed, she saw Alan sleeping with his arms crossed, without a blanket. She fetched one from the closet thinking to cover him but paused.

She loved her daughter more than anything, Nothing could measure. He was the man who never left her side in any kind of situation. And he never shows his real feelings to anybody but her whereas Arna will have her man soon.

Aria snuggled her husband on the couch.

Alan, who woke up to the movements, wrapped her in his arms while she pulled the blanket on them.

Aria complained in a low voice, "The bed is so large, why didn't you cuddle me there?" Her voice trailed off with her yawn.

Alan brushed the hair away from her little face, pulled her closer, tightening his arm, and kissed on her forehead, "I love you, my dummy wife."

"My Love." She mumbled sleepily.

After a really long time, both slept without any tension despite knowing it was time their children would face problems to get their love.

----

In the morning, Aria and Alan woke up to see Arna sitting on the floor, resting her head on the couch.

Both had no idea when Arn had left the bed and reached there.

Alan tried to carry her to the bed but Arna woke up in a jerk saying, "Momma." The fear of not seeing her mother appeared in her eyes.

Alan suggested when Aria soothed their daughter by hugging her, "Why don't you two rest a little longer?"

Without waiting for a response, he pulled two ladies up and guided them to the bed, and sat by them until both dozed off.

----

In the woods mansion,

Naira woke up normally, completed her morning gym workout, and reached the dining hall for breakfast knowing nothing about what happened yesterday evening.

She heard Norah tell her grandparents that Arna returned to the Morgan family and apologized to everyone.

Naira was shocked. 'Will Snow tell everything to her parents?' She feared.

She heard all breathing a sigh of relief because they still think Naira was the one who supported Arna's decision without knowing Naira was the one who confused and encouraged Arna to leave the country.

If they know the truth, Naira could imagine her parents' reaction so she didn't want the Morgan family to be on good terms with her family.

Trying to think of a solution, she blurted out, "Arsh has motive against taking care of Noor."

All froze looking at her.

Naira saw her father's face turn dark, she was assuming it was going as she was thinking but the four elders lowered their head and continued to eat, completely ignoring her words, excluding Noor whose face fell.

Noor somewhat felt sad because she felt like Naira will try to take her name with Arsh to make her father angry.

Naira was utterly shocked. She didn't want to give up, so she frantically said the truth, "I am not lying, Arsh loves Noor. He is a man after all, how could you let Noor hang around him? He has no job, wastes time all day..."
