Ice and Fire novel Chapter 903

"I understand. To tell you the truth, my biggest worry is my father. I know my mother will always support me and she trusts me. But, my father..." Lawrence didn't go on and his face shone?with gloominess. Recently, this was the only worry eating him and robbing his peace of mind. He had been with Aria for a long time but he still hadn't found the "right time" to inform his parents about her.

"Looking at it from your father's point of view, he is right to hope that you marry a girl from a family of equal status. Actually, Aria's family is indeed..." Greg analyzed. He knew that there was a big gap between the two families in respect to their social and economic status. At present, Kate was working in the logistics department of XS Hospital. Since she was too weak to do heavy work, Greg had already asked the director of logistics department to take special care of her.

"I am caught between them! My parents are on one side and Aria is on the other side. I love all of them so much and I won't sacrifice any of them," Lawrence was perplexed. As Greg was his close friend and a brother, it was not at all difficult to discuss this with him.

"How about we speak to Violet first? She is so understanding and I am sure she will support you. If your father and mother have any objections to Aria, Violet could speak in your favour," Greg advised him. Then he pondered for some time and continued, "But the odds are not good. We all know the kind of person your father is!"

Lawrence's heart had lifted when he heard the suggestion about Violet. Then he again lost heart when Greg concluded his speech. Yes, everyone knew his father very well!

"Forget it. We will see what happens when it does!" Lawrence helplessly exclaimed. He then turned to look at Greg and said, "Let us also go home."

"Okay, let's leave. Bye! See you!"

After they bid each other goodbye, both went home.

Lawrence didn't return to Chu villa, but to a luxurious apartment because that was where Aria lived.

As usual, Lawrence punched in the password and pushed open the door. As he walked into the living room, he saw the light was on, but Aria was not there.

Hurriedly, he went to the bedroom and switched on the light. Aria was not in bed also. Lawrence got a little nervous now. 'Where has this woman gone?' he wondered.

He went back to the living room again and searched again. Finally, he found her lying on the couch in the corridor.

Releasing a sigh of relief, Lawrence quietly walked towards her. He lifted her in his arms and headed to the living room.

"Oh...You are back," Aria woke up in a daze. She rubbed her eyes, sat on the sofa and looked at Lawrence with sleepy eyes.

"Why did you fall asleep in the corridor? It is chilly there and you will catch a cold!" Lawrence scolded her and pretended to be mad at her.

"Oh, I am sorry, darling," Aria said. "I just was very tired after visiting two clients today! I was waiting for you in the living room ever since I came home. Feeling bored, I wandered into the corridor to look outside. I didn't expect to fall asleep as I waited for your return."

"Don't wait up for me the next time. Go to bed when you are tired, okay?" Lawrence's voice was tender.

"Okay, I will!" Aria gave him a sweet smile. She then nestled in Lawrence's arms and said in a flirtatious tone, "Don't be mad at me! I really have an important dinner tomorrow evening and I am sorry I can't go with you to the charity event. But you know what? If I get the contract tomorrow, my department will achieve the target and I will get a fat bonus. I am so excited just thinking about it!"
