Two days passed by quickly and it was already Friday. Noah was listening to the details of the new software that would be launched the next week. All the preparations had been done and the managers of each department were giving him a follow-up.

It took three hours for the meeting to end. By then it was past lunchtime.

"You are all dismissed," Noah said. The managers stood up and approached him for a handshake.

When everybody had finished their small talk with their Boss, it was the turn of the manager from the public relations department at the last.

"Sir, today is Friday." She spoke up. Everybody tensed up at once.

"So?"

"Sir, we have organized a party. We told you about it." Noah remembered after she mentioned it. He had completely forgotten about it.

"Yes."

"Sir, are you going to come?" She asked slowly boldly. All the people were shocked by her courage.

Noah raised his eyebrows. His employees were becoming daring. They were questioning him directly. He had to give it to her boldness.

"I think my employees have lost their manners." He said in a cold voice. All the people in the room trembled. They realized that they had angered their Boss. And angry Boss is a devil Boss. Before the matter could go out of hand, the manager apologized immediately.

"Boss, I am sorry. I spoke out of line. I am sorry."

"I am leaving you with a warning this time. If this repeats, you will be fired." Noah looked at all of them, while they didn't even lift their heads. He gave them a cold look and walked away, followed by his assistant.

He went inside his cabin and thought about the party. He could invite Aria to accompany him. It had been two days since he last met her. Although they had talked to each other on the phone every night, he still missed her. And two days was too long for him to bear. He gave her a call the next moment. She didn't pick it up. He tried again only to face the same result.

Next, Noah tried Kaito's number. He knew Kaito would know about Aria's schedule. Though he was only a driver, he was also looking out for Aria in secret. He was in charge of her safety in Noah's absence.

"Boss." Kaito picked the call on the first ring.

"Kaito, what is Aria doing?"

"Boss, madam is talking to some doctors."

"Doctors?"

"Yes. They are in the organizing committee."

"Oh. Is it?"

"Yes, Boss."

"When will the conference end today?" Noah asked.

"Boss, the official event ended just now. In the evening there is an unofficial party, just for the sake of fun."

"Party?" Noah asked surprised.

"Yes, some young, local doctors have organized it and they have only invited people who are of the same age. They are going to the club."

"Club? Which club?"

"The London Nights."

"Oh. Is Aria going?"

"Sir, Madam did receive an invitation. However, I am not sure if she is going."

"Hmm. Do you have something else to say?"

Kaito racked his brain on hearing his words. Did he miss something he was supposed to tell his Boss? He thought for a while before it struck him.

"Boss, I made sure no cockroaches could approach Madam, although I could not avoid her colleague," Kaito said in all honesty.

"I understand. I'll take care of him once I return to our country. Until then keep a look at him. I don't want him to hurt Aria."

"Yes Boss."

Noah cut the call and dialed Aria's number again. This time too it was not picked up. He sighed. He was losing his mind thinking about her.

Although he had been in a relationship before, nobody had affected him the way Aria had. He was very surprised by this. He had known Aria just for a few days and he was already infatuated with her. How powerful was she to make the devil king fall for her? And moreover, their relationship had just begun and it had become complicated with her being Oliver's daughter. He did not want to lose her after he realized how strong his feelings were.

Noah's phone rang, disrupting his thoughts.

"Hey. Did you call?" Aria said with a cheerful voice.

"Why? Can't I call you?" Noah spoke with grievance on purpose.

"No. No. No. I didn't mean that. I am sorry." Aria apologized at once.

"Relax, I was only joking." Noah laughed out loud.

"You idiot." Aria scolded him.

"So, were you busy?"

"Yeah. I was talking to some senior doctors."

"Is it?"

"Yes. Thank God, the conference ended. I am a little homesick." Aria sighed.

"So, what are you doing tonight?"

"I have been invited to go to a club to chill out."

"Are you going?" Noah asked. He was hoping that she would say no.

"I am not sure. Everybody wants me to come and I was thinking about it. I have never been to a club before."

"Is it?"

"Yes. But I am a little scared."

"Why?'

"I don't know. Maybe I don't find it safe. Yeah, if there is someone, whom I can trust, accompanying me, then I wouldn't mind. " Aria said reluctantly.

"Like who?"

"You," Aria answered without thinking. It took her a few seconds to realize what she had said. She coughed to cover her embarrassment.

Aria's answer brought a smile on Noah's face. It was like spring had arrived and flowers were blossoming in a cold desert.

"I have an idea. I have an official party to attend. You come with me and later I'll accompany you to the club. This way I'll be with you all the time." Noah suggested and he was hoping for her to accept.

"That's a good idea. I could do it." Aria said, giving it a serious thought.

"Okay then. I'll pick you up at 7 Is it fine?"

"Sure."

Aria smiled after ending her call.

"Hey. What are you smiling at?" Stuart teased from beside her.

"Hey, it's bad to listen to other people's talk." Aria chided him. She was a little flustered. How much did Stuart hear? Did he find out about Noah?

"I didn't listen to anything. I came just now." He defended himself.

Aria furrowed her eyebrows.

"What? I am saying the truth."

"Okay." Aria huffed, while Stuart chortled.

"So, are you coming to the club?"

"Yes."

"Great. Be ready at 7."

"Um. Stuart, I'll be joining you guys later. I have to meet a friend before that. He is coming to pick me at 7."

"Who is that 'he'?" Stuart started. He had a wicked glint in his eyes. "Was he the one you were talking to?"

"Yes."

"He is your boyfriend right?"

Aria's face became red at once. Stuart got his answer just by looking at her.

"My. My. Look at you blushing like a newlywed wife."

Aria punched in the chest lightly.

"Calm down lady," Stuart said, in his perfect British accent.

Aria chuckled. "Come let's go eat something. I am starving."

"You will always be hungry, although you eat like a pig every time."

"Did you just call me a pig?" Aria stopped on her heels and put her hands on her hips. She was glaring at him.

"Did I? Then I must have gone mad. I told you that you eat very little, you must eat more."

Aria stared at him for a while and eventually gave up.

"So, do you want to tell me who your man is?"

"I think you would have heard about him. His name is Noah Allen Carter."

This time Stuart stooped in his heels.

"No way. You and Noah."

Aria nodded. He came to her and hugged her at once. "I am so happy for you. He is the best person for you. Don't ever leave him."

"Wait a minute. Do you know him?"

"Yes."

"How?"

"Let's just say he helped me once indirectly when I was in danger."

Aria could not understand Stuart's vague answer. So, she did not give a second thought to it.

What she did not know was Kaito had seen Stuart hugging Aria and had sent the picture to Noah.
