Chapter 136 - She Will Be A Good Mother To Eleanor (2/2)

”What!? How did that happen!?” Regan was equally surprised.

He didn't expect Aiden would know about this thing. And what was more interesting… people were sending him congratulatory wishes!? This was insane!

Taking his phone out… he called Stephen. ”Hello,” he said.

”Sir,” Stephen responded.

”Come inside,” he said.

Stephen came in a few minutes along with Eric. Their faces were flushed. Both Aiden and Stphen understood they were drunk. But still they were steady.

”Did you tell anybody that I want Cedric and Eleanor to get married this friday?” Regan asked.

”Sir Emerson, Congratulations for it. I didn't know you both already discussed the marriage and you are meeting now just for formality,” Eric interceded in the middle, unknowingly selling out his friend Stephen.

”How did you know this?” Regan asked, feeling annoyed.

”Oh… that… Stephen said.” Eric said, successfully selling his friend out.

”Does anybody know about it apart from you?” Regan asked, throwing daggers.

”Alaric knows,” Eric said. Successfully selling Stephen's soul too in his drunken state.

”How did he know?” he asked.

”I wanted to have dinner with Eric, after our plan was successful. Our plan brought Miss. Eleanor to lunch and it led us here to lunch. If not for Eric, we couldn't have succeeded in this plan.

”So… I called him for lunch with me. But he said cooking would be better. So… we both went shopping to buy groceries. Alaric is having leisure time, when he got to know that we are having a meal together, he wanted to join too. So… when we are having food. I said… if everything is good this friday Miss would get married to Emerson family,” Stephen said as he tried to boast his achievements.

If not! This man was answering all his questions. He played a big part in Cedric's marriage. He should get the credit for his achievements! Hmph! He gave a proud smirk to Eric, not knowing that a big storm was awaiting for him!

”STEPHEN! WHAT THE HELL DID YOU DO!?” Regan burst out.

Regan couldn't understand that why the hell Stephen did so stupid thing. And Alaric is Aria's Butler! He felt reasonable if Aria knew something, she would take the mic into her hands and would announce it to the whole world for the sake of gossip. That gossip eater… smh. He felt a headache was on his way.

”Wait! Isn't Alaric Aria's butler?” Aiden suddenly felt enlightened.

”Yeah!” Regan said.

”What the..” Aiden was tongue tied. He realized… it wasn't Regan's fault but his ex-girlfriend's gossipy nature. Like a Master Like a Servant. Both love gossip. A small smile formed on his lips. She still didn't change. She was the same gossipy lover.

”Why are you smiling creepily? Huh? I am sure… the news reached the media already!” Regan said, holding his head.

”Stephen, what did you do? I don't want to scare the little girl! See what happened because of your loose tongue!” Regan said feeling frustrated.

”Regan… first… we are not sure that the news reached the media. We have to control the media first. Then… we will have to see what to do next,” Aiden said.

”Yeah… That's the only way we have now,” he said.

Eric and Stephen felt like a bucket of cold water poured on their heads. His drunken stupor shook hard, he suddenly woke up from his stupor. Dammit! That Alaric sold them out again. It happened yesterday and even now it happened again. He should stay away from him.

”Sir, I guess Mrs. Parkinson is trying to steal Miss. Eleanor. Maybe that is the reason I am finding Alaric everywhere we are going. I think we are getting stalked,” Stephen said.

”She was capable of doing that, that gossip hungry woman!” Regan said, running his fingers through his hair, making it messy.

”Even if there is an afterlife, she would become a gossip monger. By mistake she stepped her foot into the business, if not she would have become a paparazzo,” Regan muttered.

”Stephen, from now on… keep an eye on this Alaric,” Regan said feeling frustrated.

Stephen patted himself for being smart and turning the storm to the other side.

Aiden smiled when he heard Stephen's words. Maybe he was right. A smile formed on his lips when he heard about her.

'She still loves you,' Valene's words rang in his ears. Maybe he should give it a chance after all. And he was divorced.

'I never experienced mother's love,' Eleanor's words rang in his ears.

Aria would be a great mother.
