Natalie snatched Daisy's phone, her face frozen in shock as she read the news article about herself. Before she could fully process it, a voice cut through the tension, "You all were quick to accuse Arabella, but what about this hot news? Natalie’s being called out as a liar, accused of stealing songs to become a popular singer and even stealing someone’s husband to have the title of most eligible bachelor’s fiancee."

As they turned to see the person, it was none other than Zayn White standing there. "Long time no see, Arabella," he greeted her warmly with a gentle smile. Arabella, surprised by his sudden appearance, just smiled back hiding her surprised look.

Viola, who had been watching the scene decided to make it interesting by involving Zayn, "Come on, senior. You better let them know you’re here with an invitation, if not they’ll accuse you also of being shamelessly barging into someone's reunion party."

Zayn crossed his arms, unbothered by others' perspective, just smirked, "Th

    Arabella and Zayn looked up to see who had grabbed Zayn's hand, it was none other than Xander. Arabella was startled to see him, and Xander turned to Zayn, with a sharp tone and reddened eyes, "What exactly did you do to her?"Zayn was already confused by the presence of Xander, not only that his anger got him terrified, making him almost stammer, "Huh?"Arabella quickly tried to intervene clarifying the relation in between her and Zayn, "He’s my senior; he didn’t do anything, Mr. Xander. Please let him go," she pleaded wanting him to calm down.Xander let go of Zayn's hand and gently wiped the tears from Arabella’s cheeks. "If he didn’t do anything, then why are you crying? Who made you cry?"Forcing a smile, Arabella replied, moving away, "It’s nothing, I’m okay now."Xander wanted to know what had upset her so badly, but he knew, he couldn't force her to speak, instead, he gently said, "Alright, let’s get out of here, you don't need to stay in a place which made you sad."He reache

  • Inescapable Love Of Her Twins' Domineering Daddy   HOW DID HE KNEW?

    Xander was caught off guard by Arabella's question, and he smiled nervously, trying to find the right words to cover up. "I mean, girls are mostly sensitive, right? That's what I meant, since I've witnessed my sister being sensitive most of the time," he stammered, clearly cursing himself for slipping his tongue.Arabella, gazing at the sky, hummed softly, "Girls are sensitive, yes, but only when there's someone to protect us. When we realize there's no one by our side and that we need to take stand for someone else, we learn to be strong eventually. That's how I became strong too." The wind blew her hair gently, making the unshed tears in her eyes glisten like crystals.Xander tucked her hair behind her ear, softened his tone for her. "There’s always someone you can depend on," he said staring into her deep eyes, "You just need to notice them."Arabella quickly turned away to hide her blush, smiling as she agreed with him, "You're right, Mr. Xander. I do have someone I’ve always depe

    Arabella was deep in thought about Xander, but when the door suddenly swung open, causing her to bump her head against the door. She winced in pain, "Ahhh!"Viola who heard Arabella's scream quickly apologized rushing to check on Arabella, "Bella, I'm so sorry babe." Arabella rubbed her head as she walked inside with a sigh. "How on earth did you open the door without checking the other side, Vio? Ahhh this is so painful like hell.""I didn't expect you to be standing right outside, Bella, if you're to go in, rather than entering why on earth are you standing right behind the door?" Viola questioned her with a curious look. Arabella sat down on the couch still rubbing her head and noticed Abigail and Alexander standing nearby, Zara offered a glass of water and ice pack to Arabella.With a curious glance, Abigail approached her. "Mommy, why didn't you come with Aunt Vio? She said you were with someone else. Who was it?"Arabella was caught off guard by Abigail's sudden question about X

  • Inescapable Love Of Her Twins' Domineering Daddy   I MISSED YOU

    Arabella was deeply focused on her work when she got a message from Xander asking, "Can we meet today in the afternoon?" As she read the message, a smile spread across her face without her even realizing it. Zara, noticing the smile, can't help but to be curious to find the reason behind that smile, "What made you smiling like that?""Was I smiling?" Arabella asked, a bit surprised by Zara's question. Zara quickly turned on her camera and showed Arabella her own reflection. "Look at that beautiful smile of yours with gentle crimson share on your cheeks," Zara teased her.Arabella was a little surprised, not quite understanding why a simple message made her smile like that. She quickly lowered her head while asking Zara, "Do I have anything important scheduled for this afternoon?"Zara shook her head checking the schedule. "No, you're free this afternoon, are you going out?"Arabella nodded looking at her laptop screen. "I need to meet Mr. Xander, so I'll be leaving this afternoon. If

    "I was worried about you because of that day, and it made me think about you so much that I was anxious as if I almost missed your work," Xander said, causing Arabella to force an awkward smile, "Oh, I'm so sorry about that day. I really showed an awkward side of myself, usually I'm not like that."Xander smiled assuring her gently, "It's okay, Arabella, I understand, being emotional isn't something we can control." The way Xander spelled her name every time made her blush instantly, and Nova, watching from nearby, sighed quietly at the Xander's performance. "Sometimes I wonder if he's always acting, whether on-screen or off-screen. Look at how smoothly he delivers his lines as if the script was already prepared for him."Arabella took out her iPad, trying to focus on the work. "Can we talk about your mother's taste in jewelry?" Xander nodded and glanced at Nova, "Make sure we're not disturbed for a while.""Sure sir," Nova agreed before stepping out giving privacy to both Arabella an

    "More?" Arabella's cheeks turned red with shyness because of the closeness in between them. Xander chuckled while watching her adorable reaction, "Yeah, I thought you'd want to know more about me." Just then, they heard a car horn. Embarrassed, Arabella quickly stepped away from Xander, who smirked to himself as he noticed her flustered face.Arabella nervously adjusted her hair trying to escape from the awkward situation, "Thanks, I will leave now." She hurried to the car, and Xander chuckled softly as he followed her. He opened the car door for her and placed his hand above her head to make sure she didn’t bump it to the car. His kind gesture touched her.After closing the door, Xander leaned against the car window, "I hope to see you soon." Arabella's eyes widened as he smiled. "I mean, I hope to see you soon with the rough sketch," he clarified though first thing is what he meant to say. Arabella nodded, giving him a forced smile hiding her embarrassed face.As the car drove away,

    "What does she mean by postponing the wedding?" Natalie stammered fearing the worse to be happening. Rosaline and Neil exchanged glances before Rosaline said, "Let’s go to Brown's mansion. We’ll get our answers there." Three of them felt it was the best decision and went straight to Brown's mansion to demand an explanation for their decision about postponing of the wedding. As soon as they entered, the butler welcomed them and led them to the living room. Mrs. Brown came in, surprised to see them in her house. "Oh my goodness! What brings the three of you here so suddenly? I didn't even receive a call from you." Natalie quickly sat next to her with fake tears rushing off from her eyes. "Mother, what do you mean the wedding will be postponed? You know how long I’ve been waiting for this. Don’t you want me as your daughter-in-law anymore?" "Oh, sweetheart! I’ve always wanted you as my daughter-in-law," Mrs. Brown assured her, holding her hand with a smile. "But with all the pressure

    Arabella was finishing up her work in the evening, getting ready to head home for the kids, just as she stepped out of the cabin, that's when she spotted Viola who is smiling at her brightly. "Shall we go home together?" Viola asked with full of excitement.Arabella was a bit surprised by Viola's presence out of nowhere. "You, coming to my home?" Arabella questioned, raising her eyebrows, Viola nodded holding Arabella's hand like a kid, "Yes, I'm bored of being alone. I want to spend some time with your kids, can't I?"Arabella chuckled, realizing that Viola was growing attached to the children, and even she was happy that children got some company because of Viola, "Alright, let’s go then." As they were on their way to go out of the company, Viola quickly sent a message, "Just left the company."A reply came in almost immediately, "Good, let us know when you get to the cafe."

    ••ARABELLA POV•• "That's it?" I asked with a sarcasm raising my eyebrows.I faced Ruby without any fear right now, I scanned her from top to bottom, full of pride, and confident, she must be thinking, she can summon me and demand something so outrageous as if I'm the same Arabella who used to be begging for their forgiveness and mercy. Ruby smirked, tossing her hair over her shoulder, while taking a few steps towards me, "Yes, Bella, that’s it, you give us what we need, and we’ll pretend nothing happened, simple, isn’t it?" This woman, can't she even understand the differences in between the sarcasm and normal words, I never expected her to be a fool like this.I chuckled at her delusion, and the sound of my chuckling spread everywhere quickly because of deserted silence surrounding us, "You think you can blackmail me again? After everything you and your brother have done to me? After your brother stole the hardwork of mine and rose to CEO position, do you still expect me to be a

    ••NO POV••Arabella felt tears welling up in her eyes at his words, and for the first time, she allowed herself to believe that maybe this man is truly in love with her, and wants her to be in real relationship with him, she was out of words and been silent for a minute.Her silence pierced Xander's heart, as he expected an approval from her."It’s okay," Xander said gently, with a faint smile, "I don’t want to force you." Arabella could see the bitterness in Xander's face, and Xander is also upset as her silence almost felt like a refusal to him."It’s not about force," Arabella held his hand, "I knew you and your feelings are sincere, it’s just... I can’t answer you right now, can you give me some time?" Xander felt happy hearing to her words, though she didn't accept his proposal, at least she didn't reject him, so with a smile he said, "As long as you don’t reject me, anything is fine." Arabella doesn't understand why he is so gentle and understanding towards her, though she

    ••ARABELLA POV•• "Are you crazy?" I sighed with a reddened face, as his shameless words are still echoing in my ears and I couldn't let it go.He just laughed, totally unbothered, as if he hadn't just teased me to the point of embarrassment. Sometimes I wondered if he remembered this was just a contract marriage or if he was trying to make it a real one.Well, I don't blame him either because from the past few days with him, I truly got to know the meaning of love and family warmth, thanks to him and his family, my kids are enjoying the love and affection of a family, still I'm not ready to increase my hopes because of my past.The car ride to the hotel was filled with extreme silence apart from the sound of soft music playing in the background.

    ••ARABELLA POV••"Who loves whom?" I was stunned to see Xander standing behind us, he crossed his arms staring at us, with a raised eyebrow, "what's happening here?"

He pointed at Xenon, while Xenon rolled his eyes, "I came to meet my darling Bella, it's not your concern uncle." Xander clenched his fist, "this brat!" But Xenon hid behind me, I don't understand why this guy always messes with others, then comes to me for protection.However before Xander could say another word, Xenon prepared to run away, "Let’s talk later, Bella, take care," he said in a soft tone, and left from there leaving me and Xander alone.As he disappeared from that place, I turned to find Xander standing some distance away from me, still with his crossed arms, and an expression of faint concern on his face. "What exactly were you two doing here?” He asked once again with a c

Xenon leaned back, running a hand into his hair, as he literally hated talking about that past of his, "It's a long story, Bella, I don't even know where to start."

    "How long do I have to suffer like this? It's all because of that little bitch Arabella!" Joseph sat on one of the chairs, seething with resentment in a prison room with oppressive walls. His mind occupied with anger and desperation as he awaited for his sister’s arrival. When Ruby finally appeared, looking defeated and no signs of positivity only got his anger to be increased.Ruby sat down opposite him, slightly with a disappointed look on her face, "I tried my best brother, but I don't think I could do anything at this moment, all the ways has got seized."

    "This can't be happening," a loud scream from Natalie after hearing from the maid that her grandmother agreed for Arabella's marriage with Xander.Natalie’s anger fueled dangerously, the maid informed, "Old madam said, you and your parents are not allowed for the wedding my lady.""You bitch!"
