Livid Guardian's Endless Coddling

Chapter 20: Hide behind her smile

Aria broke into a smile which meant for Rian that Little devil was ready with her sweet reply.

"No problem Principal, I have enough balance in my account to take my whole class for better excursion places. I think you forgot that I'm Aria Cooper and my guardian is Alan Morgan."

The first time she showed off and used her identity.

Alan broke into a smile hearing her get back sweetly and he felt 'Alan' sounded more pleasing to hear from her than President Morgan or Young master Morgan.

They saw the principal choking on water hearing her. Emma let out a laugh before controlling.

Rian rested his elbow on her shoulder smiling proudly, "That's the best thing. How about we go to some island? Or to the northern mountain for skiing. Little devil, you are a genius."

The principal took his own time to recover. "Thank you, President Morgan, for sparing time here... You two can go to your classes."

Rian and Aria left first. Emma followed them. Alan warned him and went out to hear Aria talking with Emma.

"Teacher Emma, was I too rude to the principal?"

Emma patted her shoulder, "It's good that you don't let others take advantage of you. Don't worry, you are right at your position."

Rian added, "How dare that Principal threaten you indirectly? By the way Little devil, I am in love with your domineering side."

Aria coughed lightly, "How about I whinge what you said to your Mian?" Rian's face instantly darkened.

Alan who heard the entire conversation didn't know who was Rian's Mian. "Mian? Who is that?"

Rian quickly covered Aria's mouth first and forced a smile at Alan, "Bro, it's nobody."

Emma chuckled before asking them to follow her to the office room.

Alan sat in front of Emma as the other two stood behind him. Emma passed two sets of scores to Alan. "President Morgan, Rian is improving so there is nothing to worry. He is just a little naughty but isn't out of hand. And Arrie is the best student. Her scores in chemistry... You may not know that Arrie isn't good at chemistry compared to other subjects. This time she scored really well and I got the chemistry teacher's feedback about her improving. By the way, Arrie! Who taught you chemistry this time?"

Aria pointed her forefinger at Alan and moved it a few times which made Emma smile looking at her adorable gesture.

Alan didn't hear her response hence he turned to her who looked cute with her slightly pouted lips and raised brows. He smiled to himself and faced Emma.

Emma continued, "No doubt you ranked first this time in the school. President Morgan, due to chemistry scores, Arrie was losing the first rank, you should help her when you are free."

Aria didn't respond so as Alan. Rian had yawned a few times, "Miss, we will leave."

Emma nodded. Rian pulled her out and bid her, "See you later."

Aria looked at her hand in the air while Rian ran away. "Quarrel with Mian and come to me. I'll teach you a lesson." She muttered to herself and was going towards the ground, Jake stopped her and introduced her to his mom.

"Mom, she is Aria. First rank student. Arrie, my mom."

Aria felt he was proud of her rank which she didn't care about. His mom sweetly smiled at her "Hello Aria." and Aria greeted back politely, "Hello Mrs.Davis"

She was leaving, Jake held her hand which made Aria grit her teeth.

"Mom, go and meet the teacher. I'll be here." Jake's mom nodded with a smile and left.

"Arrie, did you see? my mom is so nice. She will look after you well like her own daughter. Why aren't you considering me?" Jake whined at last.

"Leave my hand." Aria said grimly but Jake made a puppy face which irritated her.

Aria twisted his hand back and pinned him to the wall, "Don't you have a girlfriend? Vice president Davis, If you come behind me again, don't call me heartless for complaining to my Home Teacher."

Her voice was low but she used her force on his hands making him go red in pain.

"Aria!"

She bit her lip hearing Alan's voice. Even though she was reprimanding Jake, their position was still not good. She left Jake's hand, turned to Alan whose face was unreadable.

Alan wasn't sure what to think about looking at them.

Jake stretched his hand painfully, "Arrie! My hand is... President Morgan? I heard you are Arrie's guardian. Hello, I'm Jake Davis."

Alan didn't spare a glance at him and kept his eyes on a slightly blushing girl due to awkwardness.

Aria tried to lighten the atmosphere, "He is a renting boyfriend for three kisses. So I was trying."

"What?" Alan was shocked to hear that.

Jake was confused without understanding when she tried to kiss him.

Aria pursed her lips seeing the widened eyes of Alan, "So Young master Morgan knows to give a shocking expression too."

Alan recovered instantly hearing her. Aria continued, "I was kidding. I rejected him numerous times till now, he is torturing and clinging on to me. Now he has a girlfriend but he again asked me saying his mom is sweet and will look after me well. So I was telling him to stay away or else I'll complain."

Alan inwardly sighed and heard Jake telling Aria, "Hey, you have the right to reject but you can't stop me. And about Laila, you may know already what happened. I saw you laughing hearing that."

His face was red in embarrassment as his voice faded saying about Laila.

Aria's face darkened, "So? Are you expecting me to accept you who has no self-control and give in to your desire when any girl throws herself on you? What if you do the same after being with me? Jake Davis, get off my face before I lose patience."

Jake was trying to speak, Alan tilted his head, "Scat."

Jake ran towards the teacher's room to save his life hearing Alan's sharp tone and piercing gaze.

'Didn't I ask him to leave? One word from President Morgan, he ran away with the tail between his legs. Hmph.' She thought to herself and faced Alan.

He rubbed her head as he moved. Aria quietly followed him till the exit of the administrative block. He went towards his sports car, Aria ran towards the ground.

Alan looked towards Aria as he walked. He was thinking of what to do about Emma's suggestion about Aria. He didn't expect Aria to hide behind her smile to make others worry-free.

'Arrie's scores are good but she isn't back to herself yet. She was confident and bold in whatever she did but she is very insecure now. I spoke to Eva, Rian, and Noah, they are finding the difference too but we didn't tell Arrie as it might affect her negatively. Since you are her guardian, I thought to inform you. I hope you could help her.'
