Falling In Love : I Love You, Today And Forever Chapter 198
Advertisement
After Joshua and Ivy left the venue, Noah got inside the car only to meet Oliver's questioning gaze. He stared at him in confusion not knowing what he had done for the man to look at this way. However, Oliver's question cleared all his doubts.
"You told Aria was going on a medical camp. Why did she go inside the military grounds?" He raised an eyebrow and Noah could clearly see the anger in his eyes on being lied to him. He was tongue-tied at the moment. No reason came to his brain that could save his ass. He stared blankly at the man who was waiting for his answer patiently. Noah tried to speak, but his mind did not co-operate with him at all.
At that moment, Ronnie suddenly started speaking much to Noah's relief. "Sir, Miss is going to a camp site which is near the military area in another city. So, they are just taking precautions for them. Don't worry Sir. Miss will be alright. The military will ensure her safety."
Ronnie's words assured Oliver a little. He had been scared thinking what-not about it. But now he calmed down a little. Even Noah was a little relieved. He secretly praised Ronnie for coming up with such an excuse. On a second thought, he was not lying and it was not an excuse. It was half-true and they had just omitted some facts.
Noah gave Ronnie an appreciative look. He had saved him and he had to give him a bonus for it. Ronnie smiled cheekily seeing Noah praising him with his eyes. Noah never hesitated to applaud his employees for their good work and this time, not only had Ronnie helped him, but he had also saved his ass from facing his future father-in-law's wrath.

"Is it? I thought she was going somewhere very dangerous and secretive. That was why she was here." Oliver looked a lot more relieved now and seeing this even Noah and Ronnie were relieved.
"Let's go, Ronnie. We shall drop Oliver at my house." Noah ordered and Oliver's head shifted to him. Ronnie had already started driving before Oliver could even raise the question.
"Your home?"
"Yes, Mr. West. You shall be staying with me from now on. I know you might be getting bored staying at Ian's company. You can stay at my house for the time being and nobody will find out about it."
What Noah said was the truth. The people who had access to Noah's house were mainly his family and his close friends and they already knew about Oliver. Nobody else could enter without his permission. If Aria was here, he would have brought her with him. Now that she was gone, that option was ruled out and there was no way Ivy would come to his house in Aria's absence. Also, the security around his was top notch and Oliver would be protected at all cost.
Also, if Oliver was in his house, he could make sure that he was alright, now that Ian was not here. He could also take his guidance in opening his news agency. So, he had planned everything beforehand.
"Oh," Oliver thought for a while. Noah's suggestion was not bad. He was getting bored staying in Ian's company. But there was a problem. He did not want to freeload from Noah. His conscience was not agreeing to it. Seeing his worrying expressions, Noah realized what he was thinking.
"Is everything alright, Sir? Is there a problem?"
"Huh," Oliver jerked away from his thoughts. "Ahh, yes. I am not sure if I want to agree with your idea. I do not want to trouble you. It's like I'll be freeloading from you and my mind is unable to accept it."

However, Noah had different thoughts. 'Mr. West, you will be my father-in-law someday. If you are willing, you can make use of me how ever you want. I am willing to provide for you my entire life.' But he also respected the man's feelings and he admired him all the more that he was not a greedy person.
"Mr. West, I have a solution for your dilemma," Noah stated calmly and Oliver leaned in closer to listen to him. "You can help me with my work." Oliver's eyebrows rose on hearing Noah's ridiculous suggestion. The next moment he started chuckling in helplessness.
"I am not sure I could be of any help to you. I was a mere journalist before and I have no knowledge regarding the matters you deal with. I do not know anything about finance or accounts." Oliver pouted unknowingly.
Noah smiled after listening to Oliver's words. He suddenly found his father-in-law to be cute and adorable. It was now he realized where Aria had got her cuteness from. She was undoubtedly a papa's girl. "Mr. West, who told you will be dealing with those things. I have better work for you to do and I guarantee you that it will be of your interest."
"What work?" Oliver asked skeptically, his eyes not leaving Noah's face.
"I am planning to open a new agency. You could help me with the matters related to it."
Oliver's ears perked up. Noah's words had successfully gained his interest. "Continue."
"I have no idea how a news agency works. So, I need an expert's help, and who could be more qualified than you?"
"How can I be of your help in this? I cannot return to the field and do the work as I usually did. You know how the situation is."
"Mr. West, you can help me behind the scenes. Though you cannot be a reporter or a journalist, you could help me to manage it. I need guidance and I know you are good at your work. This will keep you occupied for a while." Noah said with an expectant gaze.
Oliver pondered for a while. Noah's suggestion was not bad. By helping him, he could gradually get updated with what was happening around him and he could also get accustomed to his work. Noah could see the gears running in Oliver's mind and he waited for his decision. It did not take him long to get his answer.
"I accept your suggestion. Thank you so much." Oliver said, his face will with gratitude.
"Not a problem, Mr. West. I will give you everything I have drafted for now. Please take a look at it and let me know your thoughts on it."
"Okay," Oliver exclaimed happily.
Noah smiled seeing Oliver being happy. Noah had got the intended job done and Oliver had no idea about it. He had made Oliver agree to work for him and whatever job he was going to do was in the capacity as a Vice President to his company. The only twist was that he would be working behind the scenes, not publicly.

Humanity enters the galaxy and makes First Contact, only to begin to realize that not everything is at it seems.
