Aidan was completely overwhelmed when he had to face Giana who was acting up, once again throwing a tantrum and losing control.

The wound on Giana's palm was bleeding profusely enough to make the floor of Dillon's apartment look like a scene of murder with blood splattered everywhere.

Not only Giana's blood, but also Aidan's.

Yes, the man was also injured in his attempt to calm Giana, who seemed to no longer be able to think straight.

Maybe, this was due to the depression and pressure she had been fighting for so long and this time, all these bad feelings were released at the same time, causing Giana to experience an uncontrollable 'outburst'.

Under such circumstances, Aidan really couldn't pick up any incoming calls from Zia, who kept calling him several times, because his focus was only on Giana.

The woman, who was still his wife, was only brought under control after two of Aidan's bodyguards came to help him take Giana to the lobby so they could go to the hospital to treat her wounds which seemed to be getting worse.

However, things didn't go so smoothly or according to plan. Because, the news hunters who had been waiting since the news first spread, didn't just let them go.

Even the help that Aidan asked for as well as an escorts service from the building to secure the way and Giana so that they could get out of the apartment building were not very fruitful.

They were like moths that surrounded a lamplight, like an eagle that sticking its claws into its prey and was not easy to shake off. That was how they behaved when they finally gota chance to have their hands on a piece of tantalizing news.

Giana managed to calm down by being held by two of Aidan's bodyguards, who seemed too awkward to touch their boss's wife, especially since Aidan was around as well.

It was only after Giana seemed to have calmed down that Aidan walked over to her and knelt beside her to cover herself with a blanket, so that no one would see the wounds on her body.

Things would only get worse if the reporters saw Giana's injuries, for which they had to get past the news hunters and escape the camera shots.

On the other hand, Giana's chest seemed to be rising and falling rather slowly, her breath was shallow, but her eyes were closed, showing resignation and exhaustion.

There was a sense of pity and disdain that crossed Aidan's mind as he lifted his wife's body which felt very light. Giana lost a lot of weight and became thinner than he had last remembered. 

And the worst part was; Aidan realized that he played an important role in the bad circumstances and difficult situations experienced by Giana.

Aidan's jaw clenched as he had to lift Giana's body, rather than the weight that he felt resting on his arms, as he walked briskly with his four bodyguards escorting toward the lobby where his car was waiting, Aidan felt more weight that weighed on his heart when he had to watch one of the most strong women he'd ever seen, finally falling to the ground.

What a jerk he was for destroying Giana's life in such a way.

However, Aidan also did not find in him the desire to be able to live that unhappy marriage once again. Living in pretense when he had promised a future to Zia.

And Giana certainly didn't want this. For now, the two of them were on the same page. They both wanted a new lease and nothing could change that decision.

Therefore, at least this was what he could do, ignoring Zia for now and preferring not to let go when Giana's condition was really down as she seemed unable to get up again.

They didn't choose to go out through the back door because there were already many news hunters waiting in their cars. Crazy news hunters, who wouldn't let Aidan and Giana off the hook.

At the very least, by choosing a lobby, the reporters would find it difficult to catch their car. Although, the risk could be said to be very high, but they had no other way, especially when their options were very limited.

"This is going to be difficult, try to ignore them, sir," one of Aidan's bodyguards told him and immediately communicated with the others via the small communication device in his hand, telling them that Aidan and Giana would soon be out of the building and that they should do their best to contain the news hunters so as not to hurt these two people.

No one should know about this. Especially the fact that Giana was injured.

It didn't matter if Giana was reported to be unconscious or drunk, but if they caught Giana's unstable mental state where she wanted to hurt herself, then that was another problem.

The big news that was currently shaking up the media, was enough to destroy Giana's reputation and destabilize the shares of their respective family companies. If this was coupled with more bad news, then Giana would not have a chance to recover.

"This way, sir," the same bodyguard, who had been escorting them all along, pointed the way to Aidan, while the others opened the door.

It didn't take Aidan long to see how many news hunters had been waiting for him.

For a moment, Aidan could see their shocked expressions, not expecting that Giana would come out of the building in such condition.

Giana's head was drooped on Aidan's shoulders, while most of her body and face were covered by the large blanket that Aidan had put on her, so that no one would be able to see who he was carrying.

However, who else if it was not Giana? Without even looking at it, they would know that it was his wife.

"Mr. Smith, how did you feel when you learnedthat your wife is cheating on you?" Asked one of the reporters, trying to point his recording device at Aidan's face.

Luckily the bodyguard who was guarding Aidan immediately brushed the device away and restrained the little man from advancing.

It's just that, hundreds of questions were asked just like that and they became very difficult to contain when they were in physical contact with each other.

Things became chaotic and mad with shouts and growls.

"Mr. Smith, how did you get here?"

"Are you aware of the relationship between your wife and her personal assistant?"

"Why is Mrs. Smith unconscious? Was she that devastated?"

"Is it true that your marriage is just a convenience marriage?"

"According to the news circulating, you guys have been living separately for a long time, is that true?"

Question after question came without stopping, while growls and curses accompanied Aidan's journey to the car that was waiting for him, which was not too far from the lobby door, but felt very difficult to pass.

Only when Aidan managed to get into the car and secure himself, did one of the bodyguards immediately close the car door to drown out the shouts and questions that would not stop.

"We're going to the hospital now," Aidan said in a tired voice as he adjusted Giana's position and went back to examine her wound which was bandaged very tightly using a shirt he found in Dillon's apartment, but now the blue shirt was covered in blood.

================ 

Hailee was massaging her forehead while waiting for her friend at a cafe in city A.

Even though the two of them weren't really that close, because this friend had a tendency to be arrogant, Hailee didn't have anything to do with her as much as possible.

It's just that times and circumstances have changed and now Hailee had to admit that she had to do something, considering that she was the largest shareholder in the company, overseeing thousands of people who work for Tatum Jewelry and had several other responsibilities.

Indeed, Ramon would be there to help her. And again, based on the agreement between the two of them, Ramon would take over the company and manage it in his own way, which Hailee didn't have a problem with, considering that she had not received sufficient education to enter this business field.

However, Hailee didn't want to just sit around doing nothing while Aileen looked so charming when she stood in front of the board of directors while leading a meeting.

Well, Hailee didn't want to look like a woman who could only hide behind her man's back.

Therefore, Hailee asked Ramon to meet Candice, a diamond designer who had just finished her studies. And of course, the man agreed to his wife's request and let Hailee do whatever she wanted, with a note, that she must report directly to him whatever she wanted to do and shouldn't make any decisions without discussing them first.

For starters, Hailee wanted to ask Candice to design a jewelry set that would mark the acquisition between Tatum Jewelry and the Tordoffcompany. 

It's going to be a big event and even though Candice wasn't yet a big name among diamond designers, Hailee had seen her sketchbook and she's really attracted to this woman's creativity and imagination.

Of course the final decision rested with Ramon, but Hailee wanted to do something too.

"…Mrs. Smith appears to be unconscious and they are now on their way to the hospital…"

It was a piece of news that kept repeating throughout the afternoon and made Hailee feel uncomfortable because she had to watch the scene of Aidan holding his wife's body wrapped in a blanket over and over again.
