The Great CEO's Wife is a Gangster 143 CHAPTER 143: TORN IN BETWEEN

She was in deep thought while gazing at the horizon. After listening to Archie's story, she felt a pang of guilt within her. She realized how her father Rio stood beside her despites her stubbornness. However, she never had any idea how her father struggles to keep up with all her problems while facing his own. She suddenly realized how selfish she was. She was only thinking about herself, about her own happiness, about living her own life but she never thought how Rio had been living all by himself.

Rio was always present in times of needs. he never married thinking that having a daughter like Aisha is more than enough. That she's more than a blessing.

Then Aisha reminisces all that Rio did for her. if it is not because of him then probably, she's not the person she is right now. now her conscience is hunting her.

"Dad, I'm sorry." A tear escaped from her eyes. she realized that she's not ready yet if something bad happens to her father. So she decided to help so Rio could rest for a while.

Aisha took her phone and dialed Caleb's number. It took her three attempts to finally talk to him.

"Who is this?" he weakly asked since he is still sleepy.

"Caleb, it's me Aisha."

"Ehm… What do you need?" he spoke lousy.

"What's happening out there? did you get any information?" she was concern.

"What information?"

"Damn Caleb, you don't have to hide it from me. I know the mission that father asked you to do. I'm in his house right now. I need to know what you've got out there."

"Ayeish! Don't call and ask if you don't have the plan to help, will you? I'm trying to get a good rest here; do you know that?" Caleb yelled frustratingly.

"Dang! Do you think I'm calling you for nothing?" Aisha yelled, enough to awaken Caleb totally.

"Will you just stay at home and be a good mother and a wife to your husband! Don't bother us and don't even think of ruining my mission!" Caleb shouted as he hung up.

"Ah! What an annoying woman!" he cursed after putting his phone in a silent mode. Then after a while, he went back to sleep.

**Aisha clenched her phone as soon as Caleb hung up. She wanted to yell at him but she knew that Caleb didn't mean it. She knew that Caleb easily gets irritated when someone interrupts his rest but he'll be okay once he gets his rest completely. She sighed. well, she just need to wait for Caleb's call later. He will call for sure.

Aisha entered Rio's room after an hour. She looked at his sleeping face. Now she can see wrinkles all over his face. After a while, she entered his study room. she found some stacks of documents on top of his table. She decided to sit down and started browsing the documents one by one.

She had finish reading five documents but it was all a report for the past two months from their clients. And true enough, they had submitted a dispute about the products that has been shipped to them. There are records of the loses as well. Then she stared at the remaining stack on the table. There are more than twenty documents to be reviewed but it was evident that they have the same claims.

She lost track of the time since she wants to finish reviewing the remaining documents. After a while, she heard a knock.

"Come in." she yelled but her eyes were fixed on the papers.

Archie opened the door. "I know you'd be here. It's already late, are you going to stay here so I could notify the maids to fix your room?"

"Eh? What time is it?" Aisha was surprise.

"It's already seven in the evening. Also, the food is waiting for you in the kitchen." Archie responded.

"Oh, I lost track of time. Is father awake already?"

"Not yet. he might wake up tomorrow morning since his body is rebelling against him." Archie joked.

"Yeah I am thinking the same." She stood up. "I think I need to go home for now. I'll just come back tomorrow morning." She smiled.

"Okay. but at least eat something first before you go. I'll asked one of our men to send you home later." Archie insisted.

"Okay. I'll be there in a minute." She arranged Rio's things in the table then after that she went down the kitchen. It was then when she heard her stomach grumbling.

She ate a little then bid farewell to Archie and to her sleeping dad. She doesn't want to trouble the men but Archie insisted that someone should guard her as she goes home.

It was already nine in the evening when she arrived at the William's residence. She headed to Eli's room first before she entered her room. she was sure that Ethan isn't home yet because he said that he will be attending an art symposium tonight.

She then lazily turns on the light but as soon as she stepped inside, a naked man caught her eyes. her eyes widened at the scene in front of her. Also, her eyes involuntarily looked down in between the man's legs. She gulped when she saw how large his thing is. She blushed at her sudden naughty thoughts

That sexy body of a man. Big biceps, six packed abs and that big junior… dang! Curse that tiny water drops dripping from his hair to his bare toned chest to his… ahh! She's losing her sanity.

Ethan stared at the drooling woman in front of him. he smirked when he saw how she blushed while looking at his naked body. the woman was definitely mesmerized.

He was not expecting Aisha to come home tonight. He thought that she'll be spending the night at her father's house so he came out from the shower naked with just a towel in his hands to wipe his wet hair.

"Enjoying the view?" Ethan teased Aisha as he steps closer to her. when Aisha realized the big body nearing her, she threw her handbag at him as she turned around embarrassed. Though Ethan was able to catch her bag.

"Damn you! will you get dress!" she was a bit annoyed.

"I don't want to since I think you're enjoying the majestic view. But I think you'll enjoy it more if you get to experience it." He smirked as he spoke seductively.

Aisha glared at him, "Get dress or what?" she threatened. Ethan raised his hands in surrender.

"Okay. okay. sorry!" he mocked as he wore his trunks. She's really scary when she gets serious. "I'm done." He lazily uttered as he laid on the bed.

"I thought you have an event to attend tonight." Aisha asked when she remembered Ethan's invitation earlier.

"Oh that, it was cancelled. they had moved it tomorrow night." he nonchalantly answered. "How about you, I thought you'll be staying with your dad tonight." He stared at the woman standing in front of her drawer searching for her pajamas.

"I came home because I need to tell you something." she took her pajamas out.
"What is it?" Ethan asked with a knitted brow.

Aisha faced him but her eyes were looking somewhere.

"Ethan, I think I need to leave…" She sadly uttered.
