Dalton had returned back to his room after his grandfather announced his leaving, and he was staring at a note that his wife had rolled on the door knob of his room. It was a threat note.

He was still somewhat positive and ready to go to the banquet so far it was with her, but she had ruined the nice moments they had, with her crazy note.

'Why does she keep testing his patience?'

Alex entered into his room shortly afterwards with another note in his hand, as he presented it to his boss who seemed to be in a grumpy mood already. The assistant was already tired and exhausted for the day, and hoped deeply in his heart that Dalton would dismiss him soon.

"What is this?" Dalton's pissed off self asked the assistant, who was waiting for him to unseal the paper by himself and view the details.

"Your grandfather dropped it through his assistant, sir," he informed.

Dalton tore the paper with creasy golden colour immediately, and checked to see a neatly folded white paper in the mid

    Aria walked out of the mansion even before Dalton stepped out and entered into the vehicle, with assurance in her heart that Dalton would end up doing what she wanted. If he wanted to curry his grandfather's favor for the very last time and achieve his goal, he had to sign the ownership of the company that he had promised her and told the press about, right before they would even go to the banquet. In the letter that his grandfather sent to him through his assistant, there were phrases that wrote that Dalton had to try to win Aria's heart, to give him a child before the end of their marriage finally came. And for ending their marriage too which was as written in the contract, was a decision that would actually be based on Aria's opinion at the end. Mark Miller made it that way without telling Dalton, because he believed that if the marriage still continued after they reached the end of three years, then it meant that his grandson had actually succeeded in winning his wife's h

    "What happened with stealing the invitation card and all. Is this how the whole thing finally goes?" Ellen, who made sure to stop by her mother's room after watching Dalton leave in the limousine, jeered at her mother's failure to do what she had promised heavens and earth to do. "Who would have known that the sneaky old man was bringing an invitation card, for a party that was to be held in two days time?" Eleanor clenched her teeth in anger, as she picked a sachet of supplement from the numerous ones in the packaged box and sipped one. "When someone is all talk, Dalton wouldn't just fail to disappoint them," Ellen said with a really mean look in her eyes, that had her mother wondering if that was still her daughter who was always supporting most of her plans fully. Especially the ones that came to separating Dalton and Aria."Are you even supporting your friend in this whole thing anymore? Do you even want her to still be officially part of this family? This isn't like you," Elean

    Aria sat up on her bed extremely suffocated, with her lungs refusing to let easy passage of air through her nostrils or mouth. She could have never imagined. She would never have wanted something of such to ever happen, between her and Dalton till they got divorced. 'Kissing him was even more reasonable but making love to him? How did it happen? How did this happen to you? How could you let your guards down?!' Aria scolded herself so badly in her head, unable to let her tears out even if her heart was feeling so bad. Her body shuddered at the faint memories of how her nails dug into Dalton's back, and of how she let out amorous moans in his ears in response to the pleasure she was feeling. How his hands worked magic on her necks down to her breast, and how hot his tongue heated her body in the right places. It was hard to not remember how she let herself lose control to her husband, and how she had never really put mind to whom she would allow to get that close to her first. The

    The air in the house was awkward, and everyone could feel that it began after the banquet. They all wondered what was going on with the couple, that seemed like they were on non-talking terms or more like an inarticulate situation. It was more different than how the past had been between them, and how it usually was like if their cloudy space was as a result of a grudge or fight. More like Aria didn't want to ever be in the same space with Dalton. And he knew it. He noticed that she had been avoiding him so effectively ever since, and didn't even really open the door to anyone who came knocking. She was either out of the mansion once it was dawn, or in her room doing something no one knew about. Dalton had really been so frustrated because of her behavior, and thought it would be the best to just act normally like nothing ever happened. But she was not ready to give a chance to meet, which was aided by his constant travelling throughout the week. It was during one of their

    With the perfect plan that Eleanor had in mind to execute once and for all, morning at Millers was busier than expected with numerous legs walking back and forth, with assigned tasks being put into action Eleanor had instructed the head servants, to get every servant extremely busy with extensive cleaning and replacing of old things in the house. From kitchen equipment to sets of porcelain plates, utensils, flower vases, interior designs and so many other things that would not obstruct Dalton's choice. That same morning too, they had the measurements of the servants that retained their jobs after the search, for a change of their uniform's colour and styling. Despite the rowdiness and sounds of objects rather than people, everything was still neatly organized in the right and perfect manner. Aria had woken up later than she usually did in her peach night dress, which she had woken up at night to change into, and had hours of restlessness before she could sleep again. She rar

    Everyone had lost their state of rest since Dalton arrived back at the mansion, as they all moved in confusion because they didn't even know what to do. Hailey remained in Eleanor's room when Alex came to call on them, to avoid facing the direct wrath of the man she was doing everything she could to win over. Ellen took the advantage of the situation to chide her mother's attitude, while Emma continued to panic as she remained in her room still. They all knew in their hearts that the only person who could do the perfect job of tracking her down, was the IT personnels that worked as the heart of both the family and company. Her phone numbers were not going through no matter how they tried to call her, and it was more difficult to track her because her phone was off. But it was still a fact that Dalton would end throwing everyone out of the house, if they didn't do anything to aid the situation. However, they didn't even know what to do."Fucking idiots!

    A meeting was taking place in a conference room of the board of directors and a CEO, and were talking about innovative plans to improve the effective output of their resort inorder to aid much productivity. They already had made available golf courses for elites who loved the sport as a recreation, but needed more exclusive improvement to bring better ratings to the economic center. The executives were brainstorming and thinking as required of their CEO, who just watched everyone silently in their own mulling state. Quickly, an agitated but comported assistant entered into the meeting room and ambled quickly over to his boss's side, to inform him of the development that was taking place outside the company's walls. Collin, who had returned back to work after his quite stressful journey, was sitting back on the luxurious chair, unfazed about what he had just been told by his assistant. He decided to end the meeting which was in favor of most of them who were unable to think of

    The fire had begun to spread rapidly to every part of the house, and the ceiling made of high quality wood had started to burn its hot ashes to the floor. Aria was not finally unconscious yet, by her eyelids had begun to slide close, to the shutting down of her body system. The glass door began to bang so loudly as it threatened to break from its hinges, because of the strong force that was hitting on it from outside the door. The force soon changed its direction, to the other side of the house on the glass wall which would be much easier. As the bangs increased and became much harder, the fire spread more to every part of the house, which unfortunately had its sprinklers malfunctioning at that point in time. By the last final blow that collided against the glass that had been hit so many times, it shattered to a large size and the stuffed heat that ejected out of it instantly was intense. Trying every of his best and using the most of his strength, Dalton anxiously hit the

I will meet you at the event," Ariana apologized to her sister on the phone, as she turned to face her tiny little child who had spilled the jug of milk again for the third time. "Come back here, naughty," she called and tried to catch the little child who ran off so fast, the moment she realized that her mother was about to get to her. "She is so fast. The last time she came over, the rack that holds numerous stacked books in the dining room came tumbling. I didn't see her afterward, and feared so greatly that she was probably under the huge rack," Aria sighed so hard over the phone. "I started crying while calling her name, because she is just so tiny. Guess what? I found her when I heard a loud sound in the kitchen. She had climbed the kitchen stool and gotten her little fingers on my bowl. It was so hectic." "Oh, dear. I am sorry she made you go through all that," Ariana groaned with a chuckle, as she

She could not eat or sleep properly, because of her sister whose eyes had been shut in a deep sleep for weeks after her surgery. Going to see the growing baby at the hospital almost everyday was like a strand of hope she could cling unto, as she watched the cute baby girl take after the features of her mother.

    Dalton's company"The percentage rise is astounding both internally and externally. People are trying to invest their shares again," Alex reported to his boss, as he presented the report to Dalton who was signing some important files. "We are not taking shares of anyone less than 9% to cut down the number of people that are desired for the investments. And for everyone that qualifies for the quota, blacklist the ones that have been part of the corporation before and pull them out after thorough findings. For anyone who would be remaining, make sure to find out about them before bringing their proposal. We won't give a chance to disloyal people anymore." "Yes sir. What about the art pieces that were moved from the gallery, sir?""Put them up for sale in another country entirely. Italy, Japan, and the like.

    Even in her unconscious state, she probably could hear the silent and calculated beeps from every corner of the room. She could still hear inaudible sounds of mumbling and murmuring around her, but her head could not turn to look at what was going on. Of course, she was certain that she was still alive, but every part of her body felt so heavy that she couldn't move them. The feeling of people constantly hovering above her body was something she always felt, even if she always slipped back into tiredness and unconsciousness. Her eyelids were so heavy that she could feel them, and she didn't seem to remember why she was like that or what had happened. All she could feel was her heart hurting so bad, like someone was stitching it with a needle and thread. She felt suffocated even while still unconscious, until someone grabbed her arm softly in theirs. "Ariana. You have to wake up soon, okay? The guilt is killing me. Knowing that you went through so much for me is killing me. I ne

    Dalton was so heartbroken than ever that it was extremely hard to believe that he had fallen too much for the lady, who was never ready to stay with him because of their ill fate. It didn't matter how much he cried, grieved, or searched, he could not be okay knowing the reality of everything that had happened. Collin did not leave with the helicopter that transferred Ariana out of the city, because he would feel guilty if he had to lie to Dalton's face that he didn't know where she was, if they ever met. He just contacted her group from Italy that picked her up to know if they arrived safely. The Miller company stocks fell even more and almost hit rock bottom, while a lot of people withdrew their shares from the companies in the space of a week. A lot of investigations were going on about Eva's case which included going in and out of the mansion, and the sisters too were called for questioning because Dalton refused to go.

    The yacht party was the most glamorous and luxurious, which was the main event of the anniversary itself. It was also the one that Mark Miller promised to attend and make a speech, after his grandson had officially launched the banquet hosting. Eleanor had searched around the entire evening during the banquet to see if Dalton came with his wife, but was rather surprised to see that she was nowhere to be found. It made her wonder if something had gone wrong between them, or if he had found out about the truth before her but had not told anyone. After the guests were getting ready to leave the banquet and make their way to the yacht party, the news about Eva broke out immediately and it was everywhere on the news headlines alongside gore sights of her carrying out some of the acts. Only the family who were too engrossed in their celebration didn't understand what was going on quickly, until the corps arrived at the party almost immediately.

    Ariana was sprawled comfortably early in the morning of the next day on the bed, drowning in a mess of white sheets that had intertwined her body. She closed her eyes after she had opened it for a while, and pulled in a long relaxing breath before she opened it again. Her eyes traced slowly from the transparent glass walls of the underwater bedroom that they had slept in, and then to Dalton who was still sleeping on the bed by her side. She watched the underground ocean sight that was before her, and the sea animals that swam above their heads like it was going to peek through any minute. She turned to stare at Dalton in complete awe again, as she breathed slowly in and out trying to contain the feeling that was beginning to overwhelm her. Her eyes were almost brimming with tears as her throat parched in pain at what would soon be their reality. The thought of it was too sad for her to bear. Pulling herself together, Ariana stood up from the bed and walked to the floor of the nea

    The anxiousness that overwhelmed Dalton as he drove to the airport was intense, that it took him much willpower to remain sane till he got to the one she had texted to meet. He didn't even consider the possibility of it being a lie and just pressed on the brakes of his car, and drove far away from his company. When they finally met and he stared at her figure amongst the crowd, it took him effort not to break down and just walk slowly to where she was. He was glad she came back.Her face was so pale and she was looking so dull, as well as there was a visible decrease in her body shape and size that made her look close to skinny. He couldn't believe he was staring at the lady he loved. 'How had she become like that?' he thought painfully. He moved closer to where she was standing and gave her a tight and warm embrace without saying anything, because he had so much to say to her and as well as nothing. Her body wrapped entirely into his huge body frame, and he tried hard not to cry

    Ariana, who is still identifying as Aria, had returned to check on her sister in Italy, whose vitals were improving to stability already, and could move her body parts too according to signals. She also met with the foreign investigator to whom she had paid lots of money days before, and presented evidence that she had against Eva to speed up investigations against her. He teamed up with some of his group back in California, who did most of the remaining research covertly. Her health condition seemed to be deteriorating too with an increase in pain by the day, which put her in fear that her sister might not wake up soon enough to see her. And with all those burdens in her heart, she missed Dalton too even if she wouldn't accept it. The fear that she might never see him again also clung to her heart, and caused an ache that refused to go even if she tried to wade the thoughts away. It brought near tears to her face too because it was too sad for her to handle the turmoil her life wa
