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

    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

    “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 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

    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.

    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

    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.

    “Hey little thief.”A hoarse voice burst through her salient thoughts from behind, jolting her back to her surroundings and she quickly turned around to behold the owner of the voice that startled her. Recollecting her action just now, a gasp escaped her lips as she quickly tucked the little rabbit behind her back. Her cheeks heats up with a blush as she fixes her glasses, her hair tresses scattered loosely over her face. She could hear his amused chuckles as he watched her struggle to hide the stuffed plush toy rabbit behind her.‘Oh God this is embarrassing’ She thought as she retreated gradually till she felt her back pressing on the hard pole, looking down at her feet in embarrassment.She could feel his eyes on her, studying her until she couldn’t take it anymore and snapped her eyes to his. Those blue eyes had her sucking in a breath and she gushed slightly.But it wasn’t just his eyes that made her heart flutter, it was the steady and well built body that looks like a work of
