2023-08-20 00:30:00——— Back in her dorm ———
Ariadne stared at the reflection of the sun rays on the floor of their dorm room, quietly reminiscing the events of the day. She kept biting on her fingernails in an attempt to keep herself composed and her mind alert.She lifted her hands for a few minutes and touched her face, palming her face in her hands and recalled the blush she felt earlier why stealing peeks at the angry or should I say a jealous Denver. This was surely not her first time experiencing a guy getting jealous of others because of her, but it was indeed the first time such behavior got to her and even warmed her up.“Seriously, Ariadne, you've got to spill the details!" Katniss exclaimed, her eyes practically sparkling with anticipation and she placed her long calloused fingers on the desk before her.Ariadne was greatly irked by their presence because she already knew that they were here to quiz her about the scene from earlier and possibly squeeze out evRelated chapters

The classroom door swung open, and Ariadne stepped out with a wide grin on her face. She swung her arms sideways as she hip hopped along the classroom corridor, allowing the feeling of relief and accomplishment wash over her.It seemed to have just dawned on her that she had just finished her very first semester exams. She let out a delighted sigh, her eyes sparkling with happiness."Wow, that's it, huh? First semester, done!" Katniss exclaimed, mirroring Ariadne's enthusiasm while tugging at her sleeve excitedly. Ariadne nodded vigorously. "Can you believe it? It feels like just yesterday we were getting lost on the campus trying to find our classrooms."Vanessa laughed. "True! And now here we are, seasoned university students who've survived their first round of exams." Tilting her head to one side, she stole a slanted look at Ariadne.Connie joined in the laughter. "And not just survived, but conquered! I mean, we've all been studying

Ariadne nodded perfunctorily. Obviously, they’ve decided on her punishment which was probably expulsion from school. It would have been fine if it was just examination malpractice, she would get a suspension at most. But an accusation of stealing examination question papers before the exam date will get her expelled for sure.‘Wait… did he just say it has been confirmed? Which means they already have the evidence of my supposed crime or a witness? But how?’‘And he said something about me gathering proof of my innocence. If they had actually set me up or if they could gather evidence or witness for a crime I didn’t know I committed, then where can I possibly find the proof to debunk them? And they act like they’re giving me a chance to defend myself? He just wants to be able to crucify me while keeping his hands clean, so that nobody will judge him for this.’Thinking about this, heat surged up to her chest and her sweats which had gathered to her forehead

“No… I….. uhh,” he began. “Wait… what are you talking about? What do you mean by how do I know? And what is the vice chancellor supposed to tell Caspian? Did anything happen to you?” He added almost immediately, pulling the car to a stop by the roadside before turning to face her. “Did you have trouble at school?”Ariadne realized that he wasn’t here for this issue, but it was already late! She gritted her teeth in fright and panicked, while contemplating on what to do now.“You better start spilling the details now! Fast!! Before I put a call to Caspian so he will fish out that information himself!”Ariadne cast a cold glance at Denver and she thought she detected laughter in those deep blue eyes of his.‘Why mention Caspian again now?’She hated it anytime Denver threatened her with Caspian. Telling things to Caspian is far worse than broadcasting her information. She thought that he was such a tattletale. Moreover, Denver men

Ariadne was beyond shocked when she saw Connie in the video. She tried to convince herself that maybe it was just a coincidence that she was caught in the video. But when she continued watching the video till it got to the end, her feet went cold and her jaw dropped.‘Why? What did I do wrong to her? Why would she go to such an extent to destroy me? Are we not the best of roommates?’Multiple questions raced through her mind as she sat there, staring in oblivion. She kept trying to imagine different reasons why Connie would act so vile towards her but she couldn’t place her hands on any. Unlike Katniss and Vanessa who were like an open book, Connie was the quiet girl in the group. It was understandable that she kept her issues to herself and not sharing with them like the rest of the girls do, because they believe that’s her being a nerd. ‘So is this why she doesn’t share her thoughts with anyone? Was I wrong about thinking of her as a friend in

‘What the hell? Did I really spend the night in Denver’s house? How did I get here?’Ariadne fell into a daze for some split seconds before slowly recalling the events of the previous night. She remembered wrapping Denver’s hands around her slim body and snuggling up in his chest, inhaling his sweet scent.Her cheeks turned pink in a cute blush when she recalled the feel of his fingers ribbon against her lips. She imagined what those slender but perfect fingers could do to her if they were to touch her somewhere else.At the thought of this, she frowned at her dirty thoughts and threw the duvet over her face, as if hiding away from her embarrassment.Denver’s words earlier asking her to join him for breakfast sneaked back into a memory and she quickly pulled herself to a standing position and scampered into the bathroom.She was momentarily shocked to notice the new set of toiletries and without further ado, picked up the toothb

“Woahh! Brotherly….. you mean you also pulled forces to help her prove her innocence and clear herself of accusations at school?”“I’m still shocked from the other day when I saw Ryker in the mall buying toiletries. Then I returned from Costaguana this morning and heard this… Congrats man, I’m happy for you”Harry went on and on. “There’s got to be really something different. You really don’t want to introduce us?” He puckered his lips and drew them closer to Denver.Feeling disgusted by Harry’s teasing act, he shoved him aside in one swoop, and Harry came crashing down into the wall.“Easy there,” he half yelled. “What’s with the temper though? Is that how you react to my congratulatory message?”Denver eyed him slightly. “Congratulations on what exactly?”“On landing yourself a girl of course.” Harry responded almost immediately, his mouth quirked up with a tinge of humor.Denver shook his head and allowed it to drop l

“Get your filthy hands off her…. You assholes”The thugs were startled on their feet when they heard the voice at the door behind them. They spurn on their feet to take a look at the owner of the voice and they froze on their tracks at the sight of the well built figure man.The man standing there does not look like an ordinary man at all. He naturally exudes the aura of the upper class and they could easily get into trouble if he were to seek revenge from them. But when they looked behind him and saw that he came there alone, they thought that they could easily defeat him in a fight because they outnumbered him. They ignored him and were about to proceed with what they wanted to do earlier.Denver instantly knew what they were about to do before he arrived when he glanced at the four thugs and back at Ariadne and noticed her disheveled state.Seeing this, Denver charged towards them furiously, heaving his chest heavily as he approached

“What?”“What did you just say? You mean Molly is responsible for this?” Denver roared, raising his tone. He had a bad feeling at the pit of his stomach about what he just heard and silently hoped that he heard wrong.“Yes boss. Molly Wickham was the mastermind,” Ryker’s voice came from the other end. “She used a pseudonym and paid them in cash. Hence, they didn’t know her name.”Denver tightened his grip on his phone when he heard this.‘What on earth got into Molly? How dare she raise a finger on Aria?…. Seems like someone is asking to be roasted soon.’ He thought, clenching his fists and allowing his phone to slip from his hand.Pangs of anger surged into his heart and he threw his clenched fists at the wall, turning the wall into a punching bag. He hit the wall repeatedly, ignoring the cuts his hands obtained from the punching.After going on it for a few minutes, he paused and staggered backwards. Somehow, the gory sight of his h

“Is she really his fiancée as was rumored by everyone in the company?” She found herself mumbling to herself.Ariadne got too carried away by her running thoughts that she couldn’t have a good meal during the lunch break. Her mind was preoccupied with how she was going to ask Denver for an explanation.Although she trusted him, she couldn’t help but be worried. Imaginations of different responses from him kept flashing through her memory.‘What if this is all true?’ She would stare into oblivion at intervals while working.Just like that, she spent the day drifting away amidst working and couldn’t be more relieved when it was clocking out hours.Right as she strengthened up, picked her bag and made to leave the office, she bumped into Estelle in the elevator. “Miss Bardell, we’re meeting again.” The haughty looking princess called out. Ariadne wasn’t in the mood for her irritations and simply nodded. Seeing that Ariadne wasn’t speaking to her, Estelle fumed within her but on second
Mr CEO’s Little Heartthrob Chapter 55: She is Back!
Denver was more shocked than surprised to hear those words. There could only be one person in the world who would dare to say those words to him. That person could only be Estelle Hargensen, the girl his mother had betrothed to him when he was a child. Estelle hence can be said to be his betrothed fiancée. He clenched and unclenched his fist nervously. He had already forgotten about her and her entire existence, having not seen her in the past ten years because she had been abroad all the while.‘Why is she back in Maldonia now? Did my mother ask her to return or was it her own intention?’ He thought.Denver thought about Ariadne and the possibility of Estelle’s return coming in the way of his relationship with Ariadne and fear knotted inside him. “Hello! Are you there?” The voice from the other end came again, jolting him back from his assailing thoughts.“What do you want?” He finally responded when he found his voice.“I’m at the airport. Your mother asked that you come pick me u

With that thought, she lifted herself on one toe and planted a kiss on his cheeks. Seeing that he wasn’t fazed, she repeated the action again on the other side of his face. The third time, she went directly for his lips and bumbled on them. She kept trying to gain access to him. It seems like Denver was out to punish her for he refused to part his lips to give her full access.When she appeared to be getting tired and was about to give up, he snaked his hand behind her neck and drew her head closer, pressing it firmly against his lips and he took full control of the kiss, cradling her head in his hands. He kissed the nape of her neck, making the world go away with each kiss. She was fully consumed by his kisses. When he finally broke it, she was struggling to catch her breath and she staggered backwards.However, Denver was reluctant to let go. She was still struggling for breath when he inched very close to her once again, so close that they were almost a breath away, catching her

Ariadne could not believe her ears when she heard it. She angrily walked up to Grace to confront her. “What’s this talk all about? Why are you maligning me?” She asked, staring at Grace with iciness in her glare. Her fists were clenched tightly, desperate to punch somebody’s mouth until sense returned to the person’s head. “What?” Grace retorted defiantly, standing up to Ariadne. She looked like a little kitten challenging the neighbor’s well-bred fat cat when she did so.“Did I say anything wrong? I saw you dropping off a Mercedes Benz a few blocks away from the company today! You were dropped off by an older man. Am I wrong?” She said in a high pitched voice and hissed loudly.Ariadne was at her wit’s end at the girl’s opinionated display of superiority. Yet, she did not fret and rather tried to calm herself down so as not to explode.Grace felt aggrieved. She had seen Ariadne coming down from the passenger’s side of a Mercedes Benz. When she strained her neck to see who dropped

The young man could feel his feet trembling due to fear and he summoned courage to refute it. “I didn’t do anything. So what if my screen captured me? It’s my workspace.”He knew how camera monitoring works, so he was thinking that as long as he doesn’t admit it, they can pin it on him.But what happened next is what he didn’t expect. One of the burly men snatched the laptop inside the bag the young man slung over his stomach and brought it to Ryker. Ryker took it and connected it to the big screen. In a minute, everyone was staring at a system virus on the big screen.“Then what is this virus on your computer?” Ryker threw the question at him and continued almost. “This virus is added to the defense force of the company’s internal network system as a phishing function. You are a tech guy and don't need me to explain to you what a phishing function is”“The key is, this virus can only be on a person’s laptop if the person attacks and invades our company’s internal network system.”T

“How long have they waited?” Denver asked Ryker as soon as his car drove into the company’s parking lot. Ryker was already waiting for him downstairs.“Almost two hours.” Ryker responded.Denver simply nodded his head and walked into the company building.When he got to the top floor, he entered the conference room and sat down at the head of the conference table.The shareholders quietened down at the sight of Denver. They all wore their serious faces and warmed themselves up to throw accusing fingers.As soon as he slumped into his seat, he signaled for the meeting to commence, while he sat down to watch the drama unfold.At that time, one of the shareholders volunteered himself and stood up. The shareholder, Oliver stood tall and his height kind of looked intimidating. But Denver was not fazed.“We’re a network company. We provide top tier service to the premium of the society. Most other companies as well as their advertising cooperatives rely on us to effectively promote their br

Kyle was at a crossroad. Seeing as Ariadne had succeeded in eliciting a satisfactory smile from her, she could not give her a hard time at the moment.She figured that if she were to make a fuss right now, it would contradict her initial smile of satisfaction towards Ariadne’s gift and the guests might catch a hint of what is happening.If this were to happen, wouldn’t the guests regard her as a petty woman? Hence, she could only continue to pretend to be satisfied and walk away wearing a plastic smile on her face.When Molly saw how Ariadne had effortlessly scaled through what she had presumed to be a crisis, she could feel her fragile heart fall from a great height and she shatter into pieces.Although Molly tried to hide the foul expression on her face, Ariadne noticed it and smiled in her mind.‘Hmph! You must have been thinking that I would make a fool of myself before Denver’s mother? Shocked huh?’On second thought, she thought that she would spend a little more time at the pa
Mr CEO’s Little Heartthrob Chapter 49: The Gift
Ariadne stood rooted to a spot. The elegant lady standing before her was Denver’s mother, Kyle Brent-Wesley, the well known President of BrentWes Group who’s always in the financial news.She remembered Molly’s warning in the past. Molly had reprimanded her to stay away from Denver, telling her not to overrate herself because Denver’s mother would never approve of her. Denver showing up with her at his mother’s birthday was a surprise that could turn out to be very disastrous.‘How would she react to this surprise?’“Come over and say hello to my mom.” Denver couldn’t help but whisper to Ariadne while still wrapping his arm around her waist since she seems to be lost in her thoughts.Ariadne snapped out of her reverie, curled her lips into a sweet smile and inched closer. “Nice to meet you, Miss Brent-Wesley. Happy Birthday.” She greeted, bowing her head slightly as a sign of respect to one’s elder. She heard the elderly woman preferred being called Ms instead of Mrs because she was

Widening her eyes, she screamed, “Ariadne! How dare you embarrass me like this?! Watch what I do to you!”Molly couldn’t control herself. But due to the ravaging eyes around, she could only suppress her anger. “Ariadne. I know what you are, two faced bitch. I will make sure to keep you far away from Denver.” She mumbled to herself.But Ariadne was far gone and couldn’t hear whatever she was saying now. It was just the gathering crowd clustering around to poke nose into the issue that was listening to her now.Hiding her face with her purse, she ran out of the mall with great speed, away from the trailing eyes of the curious onlookers.Few days later, the day for Denver’s mother’s birthday party finally came. Denver made sure that Ariadne had the best dress, purse and all. He also engaged the services of the famous makeup artist and stylist to prepare Ariadne for the event. He wanted her to outshine everyone and make a great impression on his mother.Steve would be off duty today becau
