"Ariana!" Shirley screamed her name. As soon as Ariana got into the apartment, she could finally let go of her emotions and before she knew it, she slumped down, unconscious. Shirley quickly rushed forward, grabbing her. She wanted to take her to the hospital but she couldn't lift Ariana up. "Please help me sir! My friend is heavily covered in blood and I am afraid she might-" Shirley dashed out of the house hoping to get a cab but none was working at this time of the hour.But thankfully a neighbor was about going out. Hearing Shirley's voice, he quickly walked toward them."Oh, my God. What happened to her?" The man asked and quickly followed after Shirley towards where Ariana was on the floor.Her clothes were still wet and there were few bloods stain on her wet shirt."Come on," The woman carried her and they got inside the car and drove out of the place."Please help me! I need a streacher!" Shirley yelled the instant she got inside the hospital.A nurse turned towards her dir
"Ariana, I am home!" Vincenzo's domineering voice echoed in the quiet house. He placed the briefcase on the table while he took out his phone to check the time with his hands covered in gloves.His meeting involved shaking hands with women representatives. In order not to cause misunderstanding, he always put on gloves to those meetings. Due to his haste to get home, he couldn't take off the gloves. "It's 6am already," He thought then climbed the stairs that linked to their rooms."Ariana?" He called out knocking at the door but no one answered him and just as he was about to call Martin, a crash sounded from the room."Ariana?" He held the knob and pushed the door open. He looked around and frowned at the dark room before him."Why are you hiding in the dark, Ari. What are you doing?" He chuckled lightly and turned on the light but was shocked to see the person before him. "Harriet," He spat out coldly. Harriet smiled alluringly then slide off the bed walking seductively towards hi
"Were you able to get in touch with Shirley?" Vincenzo's cold voice resonated in the car as he got inside. He had just returned from the office to pick up a file."No, she isn't answering her phone," Martin replied and the sound of objects crashing could be heard in the background."Are you sure you are okay there?" Vincenzo asked."I am fine, just a little dizzy. I'll send my men to check her house and you should go to Ariana's house or any place you think she can go to," Martin said."I am already there. Give me feedbacks later," Vincenzo said then hang up the call.He turned on the engine of the car and drove off into the streets. He quickly dialed Mark's number and instructed him to search for Ariana's whereabouts but there was a problem."You found her?" He asked slowly waiting in line for the traffic light to enter green."No sir. We searched all the places we know that she would be but nothing," Mark replied. " Her phone is with me and it will be very difficult to find her w
Half an hour ago…Ariana's apartment."What are you doing here?" Ariana's brows furrowed tightly as she stares vigilantly at the haggered looking man."I am here to see you," His voice sounded hoarse and his breath reaks of alcohol."Please leave," Ariana said through clenched teeth."Oh, no I can't," He leaned towards her but she quickly backed away."I do not know what you are doing here but you have to leave immediately!" She said angrily." Please darling, just give us a second chance." He burped then smiled sheepishly." I know that I messed up the first time and I regret it and i want you back in my life. That woman, Vera isn't treating me right," He burped again then sluggishly walked towards her." You treated me right and i need you," He spread his arms open for a hug." Disgusting!" Ariana clenched her hands tightly as memories resurfaced in her mind. She held the luggage tightly as an uncontrollable amount of anger well up inside of her and that voice came again.'Kill him.
Rex watched the woman he married hurling insults at him. He became a pauper in her eyes just because he had lost everything. This was the same woman he sacrificed everything for. The same woman who made him leave Ariana, who loves him so much."Vera, you don't love me even a little bit? I promise to work hard ag...""And you think I would waste my beauty and time on a poor man like you until someone pitifully hands some peanut to you?" Vera cuts him off with a sneer." That's not what I mean. I need you, Vera...""I will leave now and do not even think of calling me because I will not answer you," Vera said coldly, not wanting to waste time there. She slammed the door shut eliciting a shocked reality on Rex. His wife just left home... In anger Rex left the house and went to a bar to drink himself to stupor. He kept visiting the bar for days, thinking about Vera who truly left him. Rex didn't want to believe that he made a mistake in choosing Vera.He was drinking at the bar one day
"You can come out now," Vincenzo's cold voice jolted Ariana out of her trance.She glanced at him but still got out of the car. The cold wind brushed against her shoulders causing her to shiver slightly."Come with me," Vincenzo held her hand tightly and pulled towards the mansion.Ariana dared not speak a word to him, knowing fully well that he was extremely furious at her but was only trying to hold back due to an unknown reason."You are hurting me," She muttered softly. Vincenzo's brow tightens but he still heed to her complains and lessen his hold on her wrist.He pushed the door open and they both walked inside the living but before Ariana could complain a cold voice resonated in the living room." I never expected you to do such son! You hang up the call because of her?" Mrs Courtney walked down the stairs with a grimacing look on her face.She was extremely furious!"Mother," Vincenzo calmly replied and held Arianna's hand but when Mrs. Alberto saw this she flared up at him."
Ariana held the knob tightly debating on what she should do next. She couldn't stand the fact that Vincenzo was arguing with his mother because of her. "I won't lie to you. I feel guilty for leaving without you knowing, but I had no choice. You lied to me and I couldn't stand the pain of bring betrayed," She muttered softly as the voices of the duo downstairs echoed in her head. She sighed helplessly and stood up from the floor. She slowly turned towards the room and sigh. There was a lot going through her mind and not even words could explain the pain she was going through."Why did you lie to me? Why didn't you tell me that you were married to Harriet? Why did you keep it to yourself?" She clenched her hands tightly and sighed again."What am I even saying? Who am I to ask him these questions? I do not know him before nor his maritak status before I fell into his arms and we had a deal.""But… I thought we were making thus real, so why all of these?" She muttered.Her eyes blurre
"I dont understand," Vincenzo muttered. "Oh, you suddenly don't understand what I mean? Or you want to hide the fact that you are married her?" She glared angrily at him.Vincenzo sighed helplessly then walked towards her." I seriously don't know what you are talking about. Harriet and I are not married. Where did you get such information from?" He asked, confused.Vincenzo frowned and wondered where she got that crazy idea from. They have been together for months and she should have known better.He sighed again."I only wanted you to give me an explanation but I seriously don't know why you are hiding it," she said, ready to tear up."You are misunderstanding me again, Aria. You should have known me better, we are not strangers anymore." He replied."Gosh, I mean we have lived in the same roof for more than 2 months. I expected more from you," He added."I know and I understand that I shouldn't be doing this but you leave me no choice, Vincenzo. You don't! I mean, your mother told
