Amelie Marie T. Romance

Aaron Cooper is not complaining about his life.
He has a family that he can lean on when he needs it most, a solid company that he has kept at the top, and so much money to spend on whatever he wants. So why does he feel like something is missing?
Bess Lee has nothing, not even a bed to sleep in every night. The last few months have been difficult, trying to survive every day, hour and minute. But no matter how far down he goes, he doesn't plan to set foot in a foster home again... Ever again.
Bess is not a criminal, she is not a thief, but she hasn't eaten a bite in days and she's hungry. So if she steals a little money from that man in a suit and tie who seems to have money to spare, she won't do anyone any harm, right?
Unless he finds out... and that's just what happens.
Aaron is shocked when he finds that little pixie trying to steal the lowest value bill in her wallet. With her innocent face, she definitely doesn't look like a delinquent, but he knows that her appearances are deceiving. So when he is ready to call the police to take care of that girl with the devilishly beautiful eyes, Aaron is surprised when Bess confesses that she is underage.
And well, he knows she shouldn't listen to her pleas when she asks him not to force her back into foster care, just what would happen if he called the police. Aaron also knows that he shouldn't offer to stay with him in her apartment while he decides what to do with her, and he knows damn well that wanting to own something so visibly fragile and innocent is a huge mistake.
So why does he do it?
