Later in the evening ....8:00 pm ..."Hmm" Xavier moaned as he walked into the house kissing a lady , he used his left hand to slam the door shut behind him , he kept on placing kisses all of over her body as they walked in and they both giggled .Ariel was in the kitchen , she heard moaning sounds , she didn't even bother to step out of the kitchen because she knew exactly it was.For the past three days , he has been coming home really late with the same lady.She carried the plate of rice she just finished cooking to the dinning and placed it there."Why is she always here ?!" She heard the girl with Xavier ask still moaning and she rolled her eyes at that stupid question."Forget about her she's not important let's go up " he replied and they walking upstairs their hands still all over each other.Ariel , walked back into the kitchen not in the least worried about what the two two of them were doing.Right now she had a lot to worry about , not the nonsense Xavier was doing aroun
Later in the afternoon .....4:00 pm ..."Xavier , we have a little issue" Ariel said as she barged into Xavier's office."Didn't you learn how to knock?!""This is not the time to flex your power on me ," she snapped immediately "I just got a call from Beurna corp , they released the app about five hours ago and it did very well" she started."Ehn, tell me something I don't know" he replied rolling his eyes as he turned back to face his laptop."Well I'll tell you , Beurna corp is been sued on that app for copyright infringement " she snapped."What?!" He asked as he slowly stood up."How is that possible?!" He asked."Apparently, the Go gaming app we made was coincidentally the exact same one as another app called , Humm.... , Game expert" she replied as she handed over her tablet to him." Get your things together, we have to go to Beurna corp immediately" she said as she walked out of his office to her own office , just opposite his office."Look , you can't just tell me what to
7:00 pm ..."I told you to keep quiet , that could have gone absolutely wrong!" Xavier asked immediately they walked into the living room.They decided to just go home instead of the office since it was already late."I had the situation perfectly under control!" "You had the situation under control?!" She repeated in a question and scoffed."That didn't seem like the case , If I had left you , it would have resulted into petty fight!!" She retorted."Are you calling me petty?!" He asked."I'm not doing this with you again ," she whispered as she turned around and made to walk upstairs."I'm talking to you!!" He snapped held her by her hands and turned her around."Don't you ever walk out on me ever again" he growled as his grip on her hand tightened. "You're hurting me ," she groaned."Xavier ?!" They heard someone call and they both turned to see , Hailey - the lady Xavier had always been coming home with , walk down the stairs."How did she get in here?!" Ariel asked in a whisper
Next day ...Tuesday morning....7:00 am ..."Make me understand why that go gaming app was similar with their app?!" Xander yelled at Liam."I don't know what you're talking about" Liam replied."Ofcourse , what was I expecting!" Xavier retorted rolling his eyes."Remind me again why I trusted you with this project!""You're just another one of my most incompetent and entitled staff!" He snapped."You will watch how you talk to me ," Liam gritted ."Or what?!""Or what Liam ?!, What the fuck will you do ?!""You'll quit!, Oh please it's what I've wanted all these while !" He snapped."Are you sure this is still about the app , because I know you as one hell of a bitter person!" Liam retorted."I'm pretty sure you still haven't let go of what happened in the past!" He added."What the hell are you talking about?!" Xavier ask scrunching up his nose."I'm asking you why the hell , the apps you created was the same as another company's app , you're bringing up the past " he snapped."And
12:00 pm ..A small smirk played on Uncle Mark's lips as he watched the press conference on TV.He picked up the remote , turned off the TV , picked up his phone and called his Ally."Good job" he said to him immediately he picked up his call ."Thank you " His ally replied."Xavier isn't that smart , just seat back and watch him worry over nothing" uncle Mark said and they both laughed."Make sure to continue adding issues , Fred mustn't back down ""I want it to become a big scandal , I'll need that to get the company back!""By then , it'll be enough proof that he's plain incompetent " he added."And what do I get?!" His ally asked."You my dear will get victory , once I get the company back , you'll take his position!" "And I'll make sure he works directly under you!" Uncle Mark replied with a small smile."Okay , I need to go now , besides I need to do my job on Ariel Anderson " his ally said."Alright then , please next time tell me something Interesting " He said."I'll try "
"And who the hell is this supposed to be?!" "Who I am shouldn't be your concern for now , Mr Carl!" She replied calmly, clearly passing the politely rude vibe."You ..""Forget it Mr Carl , I won't keep quiet !""So I suggest you take your seat and listen to what I have to say!" She interrupted immediately."You've done enough talking today , now it's my turm to talk! " She added.She slowly turned to look at everyone in the room, they were staring at her so shocked."Good!" She murmured , people will never know their place until you put them in it."Are you guys not tired of being so pessimistic!""Because if you ask me , I'm so tired of being around pessimist all the time !!" "Can you guys just trust Xavier for once!""He's trying his absolute best to make sure everything goes on fine around here" "But you guys try to constantly make him feel like a failure, what exactly will you get from that?!!" She said."Everytime I even wonder why he listened to you guys , getting married to
Next Morning ....Wednesday morning 8:00 am ..."Coffee" Ariel said as she walked into Xavier's office and she dropped the cup on his table."Hmm" he murmured and nodded as he picked up the cup."What's my day looking like today ?!"

She whispered in confusion as he moved closer to her."So you love him " he whispered and she looked up at him , her brows slowly furrowed , her confusion deepening as the seconds passed."I don't know what you're talking about, who do I love ?! " she whispered."Liam " he replied and her lips slowly stretched into a smile."I'm not joking" he whispered, his facial expression denoting seriousness.her smile slowly faded."Oh, you're serious" she replied as she blinked her eyes."I never confronted you about Hailey , so why are you bothered about Liam , I thought this was an open relationship" she replied."It never was " he replied."Then make me understand what you're doing with Hailey " she replied."Hail

She said as tears began to fall from her face again."Now you can bring him to book " Carl said and she nodded."Him , my dad and Rose !" She whispered."They'll all suffer for what they did to me !" She replied."Rose ?!""Did you just say Rose ?!" Carl asked."Yes , Rose !"

She replied."Your daughter is meeting no one !" Belinda said."She won't get a dime of what my son has worked for!" She said."Not every one is as shallow as you Belinda""My daughter doesn't need Anders or his money!!" She replied ."She just deserves to know who her father is !" She said."Anders can never be her father !!" Belinda said."Anders has only one child the whole world knows and that's Xavier !!" Belinda said and Miranda laughed."Then explain to me , why some months ago you offered me money just so that I don't talk to Anders about Ariel!""If you knew she wasn't his daughter why did you offer me money to go far away and not come into you
