Immediately after that incident with Ariana, Vincent found himself leaning against the wall, with millions of thoughts rumbling through his mind. He chuckled and shook his head as he gazed at the ceiling, as though there were a lot of words imprinted on it.

' My goodness,' he thought to himself, as he kept on looking at the ceiling, with a bright smile on his face. 'She is so damn good,' he thought to himself. 'She is freaking good, I would grant her that.' He then took a deep breath.

' I can't believe she is so persistent in this. Does she take me to be a fool? What exactly is she hoping to accomplish with this? The fact that Clara is even going along with her and encouraging her with it is making me so infuriated all the more. What is she expecting to gain out of this? Just what?' He thought to himself and then rubbed his chin furiously.

He then moved away from the wall with frustration and raked his fingers through his hair. The image of her entire frame was tormenting him incredi

    It didn't take too long before Clara finally got to their destination right in front of the school building and then put the car to a stop. She then folded her arms and relaxed back against her seat before turning towards Ariana with a wide smile. Ariana gave her a confused stare and frowned slightly. "Why the hell are you smiling at me like that? Stop it. You look so weird. " She said jokingly, and Clara chuckled, "Well, what else can I say? It's not every day I get to see you falling into a complete situation where you have no choice but to accept what is right in front of you," she said, and Ariana rolled her eyes as she unhooked her seatbelt."Just give up with a teasing, Clara, it is just one date. It's not like something is going to come up after then, " she said, and Clara smirked, "Are you sure about that?" She asked, and Ariana frowned, "Just give it up, okay? I know that we're going to have a date. You don't have to keep repeating it in my ears, " she said, and this acti

    Fiona couldn't contain how she was feeling, in fact, she couldn't explain herself, her entire system was burning like an inferno, her entire brain felt swollen like a tsunami, and she felt like she was about to combust and burn into smithereens."This can't be, " she thought to herself as she clenched her fist tighter, digging her nails deeper into her palm till it ached so much but the anger in her mind prevented her from feeling such pain. she clenched her teeth hard and glanced at Ariana who was pampering her son with loving smiles on their faces, she felt her head swell up with insane rage. 'This is impossible, no this can't be, this is just outrageous, ' she looked away from them and then rubbed her eyes continuously, 'no I must be dreaming, there is no way this can be happening,' she thought to herself and then looked back at the both of them.'How the hell.... when did she have a son?

    "I am completely fine on my own, I never told you I needed your help." She replied as she looked at him and he paused in his actions, staring deep down at her with his eyes fixated on her beautiful long lashes and sparkling blue eyes. He smiled a little bit and then nodded his head slightly." As you wish," he said with a slight smile and then moved away from her, walking towards the receptionist's table. Ariana batted her eyelids and glanced at him, not expecting the reaction he just gave off presently. She frowned a little bit as she kept on staring at him and then bit her lip. 'Have I pushed him too much or did I overreact a lot?' She thought to herself and then slowly turned around to face Liam. Liam was staring at his mom with a worried tone on his face. She chuckled and then squatted down towards his height. Then she rubbed her hands against his hair softly, trying to calm him down. "It's okay my boy, forget about anything you just saw, okay? Don't mind that lady, she was just

' She thought to herself as she found herself staring endlessly at the child in Alex's arms. 'She is so cute. ' She thought to herself and kept on smiling at the little girl. The little girl found herself staring at Ariana as she then patted her dad's shoulder. "Daddy, who is the pretty lady behind you? " She asked and Ariana found herself blushing slightly as she immediately looked away. 'Oh my god, she just called me pretty. ' She thought to herself and then chuckled as Alex slowly turned around to look at her. "Oh, my bad, I'm sorry for the lack of introduction, Emily, this is a very good friend of mine, Ariana, and Ariana, meet my daughter, Emily, that I've told you about.

    The sly hidden individual kept his hand in his pocket and then put on his hood to cover his identity as he quickly exited the school building. He stopped at the entrance and looked behind him to make sure no one was following him before taking a deep breath and looking around the road before him. He glanced at Arianna's car and then frowned slightly before nodding his head with amusement. "Well, she made it a huge deal to get such kind of a vehicle."He muttered softly to himself and then walked over to the next direction, taking his phone out of his pocket. He then scrolled to a certain familiar number and then paused before dialing it. His phone beeped while he placed it in his ears and then toyed with his fingers a little bit, awaiting a reply. The person at the other end picked up immediately. ''Hello, boss,'' he said, and then Vincent's voice came up next. ''Well, Drake, I didn't—well, that was quick. I didn't expect you to call this fast. Have you started and has any progress

They were about to audition for the casting role of the lead actress in a movie about to be premiered by the world's fast-rising leading entertainment industry, SPECTRA INTERNATIONAL.Because she was being recognized for who she was as the world's leading actress, the staff and authorities wanted to push Ariana to the front and just clear the entire audition as quickly as possible.

She just remained in her position and sat by the mirror while the makeup artist attended to her with all sweet smiles on his face, casting her the most flirty expressions Ariana had ever witnessed in her entire life. All she could just do was roll her eyes and keep her attention on the mirr

    The young man found himself staring at Ariana with a raised eyebrow as he relaxed back in his position in his chair rubbing his chin intensively. "I did not see this one coming. This young lady is the most surprising individual I have ever interviewed in my life. Wow, " he thought to himself then chuckled softly. "It is so surprising. Most of the popular celebrities I have attended for auditions like this would have immediately jumped at the opportunity and taken the high road without thinking twice about it. She is far more experienced and even better than any of them combined yet she didn't just jump at it like I thought she would. She is still insisting on taking an audition. " He chuckled softly and then returned his attention to the book before him. He took out his pen and wrote down against it slowly, with lots of thoughts running through his mind. Then he smiled and looked up at Ariana. "I admire your confidence and I understand this but, you know, according to the standard w

    Ariana found herself walking back towards where Clara was seated among the other contestants in the waiting room with a lot of smiles on her face. She glanced back at the script that was still in her hand and raised her eyebrows as she stared at it with so much amusement and joy. "Well, well, well, I exceeded my expectations." She said softly to herself as she beamed and then looked up to behold the other contestants casting her those long hard glares as though they would really take hold of her neck and rip it apart if they ever got the chance. She chuckled softly to herself and decided to ignore them. There was no point in bothering about them anymore. At least the judges would then have the bonus to tell them that it wasn't a cheat since she went through the same process. The only thing they couldn't blame her for was that she was better than them. She then decided to ignore it all and walked straight towards Clara who was staring at her with an elated expression on her face. She

That was so freaking loud. It felt as if my eardrums were about to explode. Who the hell had to guts to do that? I manage to lift my head and look at my surroundings while still placing my hand against my ear as if it could reduce the pain I am feeling. The images around me are a little bit blurry, and this makes me squint my eyelids for a little while, trying to process what I am looking at. "Welcome back to the land of the living Mr Vincent." A voice speaks up, and after a few minutes, the images are now a little bit clearer directly in front of me. The first image I see makes me frown immediately as I raise an eyebrow with shock not believing what I am looking at right now. "Flora?"

She says, but then I turn my face to look at her and watch as she immediately shuts her mouth, gazing at the ground."I am sorry. I shouldn't have said that" she replies immediately, and I can tell she is feeling extreme guilt for actually losing Liam when he was directly under her watch. But the Lord knows I can't blame her.

Okay, her reaction right now is frightening me because I have never seen Clara look this frightened or paranoid to this extent in my life before.

You look like you were lost in the world for a while so I felt like bringing back your attention." I say and watch as she chuckles nervously as if... Okay, that laugh looked kind of forced. She didn't have the intention to laugh. Something is wrong with her.
