Adrianna sat on her bed,blazing with fury. She wanted to rip someone to shreds. She clenched her fists trying not to scream in frustration.She got up and started pacing the room,'' What do I do? What do I do? ''. The tears rolled down her eyes as she paced,''Who could be so nasty?''John entered the kitchen, which was awfully silent. He knew something was up but he dared not question. He picked up an apple, washed it and walked to his bedroom. In the dining hall he could see a congregation. He stood out of view listening to them bicker amongst themselves.''Who had the guts to do it?'' Sierra asked in a whisper.''Not me'' they all chimed.John snuck a peak, he could see the smirk on Andrews face.''All right you dim wits, I did it'',Andrew spoke boldly,'' I took her contract proposal and shredded it''.''You clever cat'',Lady Francesca cooed,squeezing him in a tight embrace and planted a bright red kiss on his cheek.John was dis

Adrianna lay on her bed. Her heart in turmoil.She did not know what she felt anymore. On one hand she had evidence that may or may not implicate Johns involvement in everything,on the other was her family who she believed that could never harm her.But there is evidence pointing to them. She ripped off the necklace from her neck and threw it across the floor. It landed under the table,unshattered. Adrianna felt like a crazed woman. One minute wanting to believe John was innocent and the other ,raging with anger that he could be a scheming,lying son of a gun.John stood in the garden, his face still burning from the small slits. He looked at the shreds of paper on the floor. ''How could she not believe him? Was she brain washed by her family? Was she still stupid and naive? Is she sp gullible? Can she not see whats happening? Ryt in front of her eyes? It does not take rocket science to figure this out!!! What is it going to take,Adrianna, to win your trust?'',John

Soon after Peter and Martha left.''Just look at how that wench has blinded father'',Lady Francesca said through gritted teeth.''Yes dad, what are we going to do?'' Michael said as he sipped from his glass, a long endless sip of the finest whiskey.''Don't worry'',Andrew pulled out his phone and made a call.On the east end of New york,Sky picked up her phone as it ra

She had slept the entire morning.John woke up to the ear ringing scream. They both were surprised looking at each other they jumped out of their respective beds. ''oh my gosh, oh my gosh, I missed my early appointment at Smith corporation'',Adrianna wailed running into the bathroom to shower and get dressed.John walked to the closet and retrieved his phone.

He reached out his smooth hands and have hers a firm shake before gesturing her to sit down.She sat across the large table.

''Where do you want to go?'' John asked, his ton so calm and loving. ''I don't know, surprise me'', Adrianna spoke still brewing in her hapiness. John knew a little restuarant with the most exquisite chinese dishes in the whole of New york. It was where he would go when he made a few extra pennies. It wasn't as glamourous as the restuarants the Walters would go to, but the food was amazing. He wanted to share this with Adrianna.He wanted her to be comfortable around him. He wanted her to know him, not some big shot CEO that he will be. Could she love him for him? He always had his doubts, today just maybe it would be cleared. He drove to the upper north side of New york city. It was not a very rich area but it wasn't dingy either. He parked outside the restaraunt and walked around to the passenger side , opening the door for Adrianna. At first she was reluctant, but as she saw the smile on John's face slowly fading, she placed her hand in his

''It is Alex, Alex Jenkins from Smiths Corporations. We met yesterday.'' ''Yes, I remember'', Adrianna spoke , suppressing the excitement in her voice. She did not want to sound too eager. ''Our CEO has seen your proposal, and it has blown him away. I have made an appointment for you to come in today, at around 12H00pm, is that convenient for you? Alex spoke slowly, letting the words sink in. He hoped that by the time the truth of the CEO is revealed, she would not be shocked and have any regrets aginst their boss. ''I will see you there, thank you'' Adrianna disconnected the call and squealed in excitement. ''Are you ok?'', John asked, feigning curiousity. He knew quite well that Alex had called,everything is going according to plan.
