Ariella brought her hand up to her forehead. Mariam noticed it and her distraught expression. She cocked her head to the side with a frown, “Are you alright?”Ariella shot her a look, “We left Kelvin’s driver outside last night. Do you think he waited until this morning?”“Eh?” Mariam looked confused for a minute before she finally caught up, “You asked him to leave last night, he refused. Him staying overnight has nothing to do with you.”“Stop acting heartless. He was only doing his job.” Ariella scolded.“Good thing you know that he was just doing his job. It’s a nice and big car, big enough to contain him. I’m sure he had a good sleep.”“You are impossible.” Ariella groaned before she turned to walk out of the kitchen while arranging her hair with her fingers. She moved to the door of the house, ignoring Mariam who was following behind her.“Where are you going?” Mariam asked Ariella when she began to move in the direction of the building’s elevator.“To check on him, stupid.” Ari
Arialla froze and her eyes widened a little as she looked down at Maria. “Kelvin was home last night?”Maria nodded, “Of course, he was home last night and was also worried.”Ariella did not know if Maria was trying to get her boss into her good books or not.“I did not know he would be coming home last night.”“Nothing to worry about. He was happy that you decided to spend some time with your friend.”“Hmm.” That was the only response she could give before she began to walk in the direction of tnt stairs that led to her too.“Eh, Ariella,” Mariam called behind, stopping arialla from placing her foot on the first stairs.She turned back to look at the older woman, “Yes, Maria?” Maria looked like she did not want to speak but needed to do so, “There’s a little video of you that’s been circulating the internet since last night.”Arialla already had an idea, in fact she knew what this video was already but she still went ahead to ask, “What video?”“A video of the little confrontation y
Dear lovely readers, I know I’ve been very very slow in my updates of this book and for that I do apologize. My readers from Chasing His Rejected Luna know that this is not the way I update. I’ve been sick for months and I’ve been struggling to write even with a drip inserted in my hand because I don’t want to leave y’all hanging. I hope and pray that I’ll recover soon and return back in good health then we’ll go back to faster updates. I hope you’ll understand. Thank you.
Wait, what? Was Gladys planning on defending her against Hannah?As much as Ariella needed help with Hannah, she knew that Gladys getting involved will just make the whole thing messy. Bells would go off in Hannah’s head if Gladys was to get involved and everything would just blow over.Kelvin only ignored her and she was coming for Ariella. If Hannah found out that she was pregnant with Kelvin's child, it would be all over.“She can’t just move on with her life, can she?” Gladys continued, oblivious to Ariella’s thoughts, “She always made my son feel less of himself most times because he loved her and it made her act like a God. He gave her everything wanted she yet she played him for a fool and yes, he was a fool for her. Sadly. Guess she found out too late that she can’t live without him.”Or more like she feels that she’s lost one of her toys and so she’s angry that she can no longer control him again, Ariella thought with a deep sneer on her face.“It’s pathetic that she keeps go
1 Ariella fidgeted nervously and wiggled her hands together. She had received a call from the hospital five hours ago that her mother collapsed. Her mother's surgery that was scheduled for five weeks later has been brought forward because of this. The doctor was demanding money for the surgery, and she also had outstanding debt for the drugs her mother's doctor was kind enough to give to her on credit. After her father's death, Ariella's mother fell ill, so she had to drop out of college and look for a job. In the process of looking for a job, she met beautiful Hannah, who helped her secure a position to become a model. Since Ariella was beautiful and had a good shape for modeling, she was able to get a spot in the company, but she could never go far. She had no connection, she was not willing to sell her body. Most of her resources were snatched by the other models. Even after two years in the modeling industry, she was not making enough money to take care of her mother's med
Ariella scrambled away from the bed and picking up all her clothes, she ran into the bathroom, and slammed the door behind her She slid down on the floor, still naked as she burst into tears of guilt. She was supposed to sleep with a random stranger and get the money for her mother's surgery, so how did she end up in Kelvin's bed? Did Hannah make a mistake with the room number? She was sure that Kelvin must have been expecting Hannah because he was also shocked to see her. She buried her face in her hands as she sobbed loudly. She was not a good friend at all. She just slept with her friend's boyfriend and enjoyed it, she even gave her first time to him. 'I have to tell Hannah before he tells her, I need to beg for her forgiveness' she thought as she stood up with shaky legs and picked up her trousers She brought her phone out of the pocket of her jeans and with shaky hands, she dialed Hannah's number. Her heart was in her mouth as she listened to the ringing tone, waiting for Ha
Kelvin continued to glare at the door long after Ariella left. He was still furious about what she did and he was going to make her pay. How dare she pretend to be his girlfriend just to get into bed with him and then try to push all the blame on Hannah? He was going to warn Hannah about her friend, who was just a wolf in sheep's clothing. He picked up his phone and called Hannah. He paced around the room as he waited for her to pick up. She did not pick up the first time, so he called her again, and she picked up this time around "Hello.” Hannah's voice held a tinge of fatigue, he could guess how tired she was, and it made him feel guilty. While he was here screwing her friend, she was there working hard to push her career forward. "Hannah, honey, you have to keep calm and listen to me. Something bad just happened, and I need to explain it to you.” he prepared her for the news he was about to deliver which he knew would hurt her. "Umm, Kelvin baby, if this is about whatever happ
A middle aged woman was in her office on the thirty first floor of her company's building. She was sitting behind her desk on her swivel chair and in her hands was a magazine of the lastest fashion show that she would flip to the next page every few minutes The woman jumped in her sit, dropping the magazine in the process when her personal assistant burst into her office without knocking "Why in God's name are you running? Are you out of your damn mind, Gerald? " The woman yelled, her eyes wide in her beautifully made-up face. Gerald did not pause to calm down "Good news, good news, Mrs Patrick" he was gasping but he had a wide smile on his face.Gladys' head tilted and her eyes took on a look of confusion "What good news is this?" "Remember that girl? The one Mr Kelvin spent the night with at the imperial hotel?" Gerald asked "Yeah, the one I ask you to keep an eye on but still no news of the both of them meeting again. What happened?" Gladys collapsed back on her s
