Chapter 16: The worst livid guardian (1)
Noah laughed awkwardly scratching his head sensing Aria's mood change, "Teacher Reed, let's not talk about it."
Aria continued, "Teacher Reed, Is there anything else?"
Noah squeezed her hand to indicate her to remain calm.
Jade noticed the changes but didn't say anything as he already knew what happened. He thought it was normal for Aria to react that way. "Aria! you have to help me when I'm wrong or stuck. I may disturb you to teach me if I don't know."
Aria's expression relaxed a little, "Teacher Reed, you are thinking too highly about me. I'm just a student. If nothing, you should have your lunch."
Jade knew she was being reserved hence he didn't say anything else, "Alright! Tomorrow I'll give a unit test on the topics which Aria taught to students. Inform it in the class. You two can leave now."
Jade looked at Aria who smiled sweetly greeting Ms.Emma Hudson and the latter rubbed her head fondly when she was leaving the office room.
Jade went near Emma holding his bento box. He leaned on her desk as he ate and asked. "Ms. Hudson, you are the home teacher of Section two science. How is Aria Cooper? She seemed to be too reserved with me."
Emma faintly smiled, "Mr.Reed, you must be knowing what happened with her. Give her time, she will be fine with you if you are a good teacher."
He just nodded as his eyes fell on score sheets of students. He leisurely took Aria's sheets. "Your student seems to be talented... Why is her chemistry score low as other subject scores are perfect?"
Emma who was eating glanced at him once before speaking, "Arrie is weak in chemistry."
Jade faintly smiled before going to his desk.
'Arrie!' He shook his head to disperse his thoughts. Her smiles at others and her pretty face seemed to affect him.

While having lunch with the whole class, Jake showed up near Aria and kept Tiramisu next to her plate giving a subtle smile at her.
Her classmates 'Oh' loudly which got everyone's attention. She shot daggers at Jake who waved his hand from his seat.
His smile made her fume but she suddenly smiled giving creeps to Noah. "Arrie! What's cooking in your head?"
"Elita! Can you help me write a few words by seeing handwriting?" Aria asked her classmate who was good at forging handwriting.
Hearing yes, she borrowed another classmate's book who had brought a book to the canteen and handed it to Elita. She quickly opened a picture on her mobile from the history of sent pictures to her Dad's number and passed it to Elita.
"Please write, 'Dessert for my sweet baby Laila. From your Jake. XOXO'"
Other classmates laughed hearing her. Laila was Jake's classmate who follows Jake like a crazy one-sided lover.
Elita analyzed the handwriting and quickly wrote it as asked by Aria. The latter instructed the little boy after giving him chocolate and sent him to the table where Laila was sitting.
The little boy pointed towards Aria when he was asked who sent but that time, Aria looked at Jake who smiled sweetly at Aria but Laila saw Jake smiling towards her as Aria's back was facing her.
The little boy left soon. Laila skipped towards Jake and sat next to Jake holding the tiramisu and flirted with him without letting him leave.
Aria's classmates burst into laughter looking at Laila wrapping her hands around Jake's shoulder.
Aria went to them after her lunch, "I'm sorry Laila that I had to divert the dessert to you which was from the Vice president, Please teach your boyfriend to stay away from me. And yeah! You guys make a great couple."
Laila smiled sweetly and Jake understood who sent the tiramisu to Laila. "Arrie! You can't do this to me."
He shouted in vain as all laughed seeing Laila hugging his arm and following him.
Rian was having lunch with Mian Walker, understood from afar, and smiled to himself. 'Little Devil'
The classes continued, Aria taught three subjects before leaving school. Rian had left as he knew those topics.
Aria tried to flag a taxi but she couldn't get one. She walked towards the bus stop when Jade stopped his car next to her. Aria's face turned blank seeing him approach her.
"Aria! What are you doing this late here? Shall I drop you somewhere?"
Alan was on his way to the villa passing by the school identified her instantly. He couldn't understand why she was still at school at this late hour.
Aria replied as she looked ahead for a taxi. "Teacher Reed! I was helping a few students hence got late and..."
Alan didn't see any students around either. He hopped off to cross the road to reach Aria but...
She raised her hand and stopped a taxi, "I got a taxi. Thank you." Without waiting for Jade's reply, she left.
Jade looked at the taxi speeding off and sighed. He got into his car and left.
Alan gritted his teeth and got back in his car before following the taxi and successfully stopped it after three junctions.
Aria who was looking at her mobile thought it was a traffic signal but hearing Driver curse another driver, she raised her head to see Alan in a crisp white shirt and grey pants wearing dress shoes alighting from his black Lamborghini sports car.
She couldn't understand why he always stays grim.
Alan opened the back door and pulled her out forcefully and kept a few bills on the front seat which shut the driver.
Aria frowned harder as his clutch on her arm was very tight and she was holding her blazer in hand which made no layer of cloth under his clutch.
Alan didn't notice her and opened the shotgun seat door before forcing her to sit inside. He went around and sat on the driver seat before speeding towards the Morgan mansion.
Aria glared at Alan for a few seconds before turning towards the road rubbing her arm. She wanted to shout in frustration.
Alan sped crazily on the road. He didn't know whether he should appreciate her boldness to hail a taxi at the late time alone or scold her for being off guard all the time ignoring her identity.
One was fuming, another one was annoyed thinking she got the worst livid guardian.
Twenty minutes of silence was weird in the car. Alan always stayed silent hence he didn't feel anything but Aria who always engaged in light talk if the person was known felt like torture to sit with him.
As soon as Alan stopped the car, she bolted inside the mansion after getting down. She greeted Rowan and Amelia before going upstairs but Alan held her hand and dragged her to face his parents, making her lose her patience completely.
