Arianna quickly dashed into the bathroom, had her bath and got dressed. She quickly left to meet with Brittany who was standing outside the restaurant.
"Brittany...why didn't you inform me on time?
"I'm so sorry miss . I just got a call from the agency requesting you to meet with someone who wants you to model her new designs"
"What? Brand name"
"I don't know. Let's go inside"
"Sure. Goodness... I just wanna sleep some more "
Brittany and Arianna went in to meet with the designer.
"Good morning sir" Brittany said
"I thought you said the person we're meeting is a lady. Why a man? Arianna whispered to Brittany.
"I don't know"
"Any problem? Asked the man
"No. Not at all. Good morning" Arianna said
"Good morning. I'm Fredrik Andres....call me Me Andres"
"Mr Andres....nice to meet you. I'm Arianna Hugh"
"No to meet you Arianna. Please do sit"
"Thank you. Sorry for keeping you waiting" Arianna said
"No problem. I'm sorry for the impromptu meeting"
"It's okay. Shall we?
"Oh yes. The amor is launching a new line next week. I know you're a famous model and I need you to be our model for the magazine cover"
"Only magazine cover? Arianna asked
"Runway and magazine cover model" said Mr Andres
""So...you have spoken to my agency?
"I did. They said You're booked up and you'll be traveling to New York for the launching of Mrs Thelma Anthonio's fashion academy"
"Oh yes. It slipped my mind. Goodness...I can't believe that I almost forgot. No problem... I'll be model for you"
"That's nice. Your agency approved of it"
"Okay. Meet with manager"
"I'll give you his number" Brittany said
"He? I thought Tricia is my manager? Arianna asked
"Not anymore. She resigned. She's leaving for las Vegas. She's got a new job as a designer"
"Oh my! Finally, she can fulfill her dream"
"Yes Arianna. I'm happy for her too. Uhmm...sir Andres... here's the contact of our manager"
"Really? Thank you so much. I'll leave then. Take care miss Arianna"
"Miss Arianna? It's Mrs Arianna" Brittany said
"My apologies. See you soon Mrs Arianna"
"Yes sir. See you soon. Take care. Oh my ... Brittany, tell me about my new manager"
"He should be meeting with us. I guess he'll be here soon. He's Jayden. Oh there he is"
"Hi. Good morning. I'm sorry for keeping you waiting. I'm Jayden"
A tall, handsome well built young man said stretching forth his hand to Arianna. Arianna was astonished to see such a beauty before her. She quickly shook his hand.
"You're Jayden? My new manager?
"Yes. I'm so excited to work with you. I'm a huge fan of yours. May I sit?
"No. We're leaving already" Brittany said
"No Brittany. I'm hungry. I didn't have breakfast. Did you have breakfast Brittany? And you Jayden?
"No I didn't. Okay. I'll call in the waiter to take our orders. I'm so hungry" Brittany said and waved at the waiter
"Okay, if you say so. Jayden... ain't you hungry?
"I'm okay..I already had breakfast."
"Okay. Brittany...you know what I usually have for breakfast"
"Yes. I've already placed an order"
"I can't wait to eatx Arianna smiled.
Arianna returned home and left for her bedroom. She undressed and got into a more comfortable outfit. She sat on the bed and stared into the air for a while, lost in thoughts on how to impress Gavin. She makes breakfast and dinner for him, what else can she do for him?
She quickly picked up her laptop and searched "how to impress your husband" and "how to win your husband's love".
One of the platforms she viewed, she saw a question posted by a wife "how to be a perfect wife" and other questions from wives and the answer which captured her attention was "seduce him to touch you". She smiled...yes, she's a model but how can she do that and succeed. She quickly keyed in "how to seduce your husband" and wiped it off. She typed again "how to be a seductress to your husband' and cleared it. She was confused on what to search for and words to use.
She finally typed "how to get your husband to touch you" and clicked search. She read the results of the search, and put down some stuffs in her diary. She saw some books recommended on successful marriage. She quickly changed into another outfit and left for the library.
"Wow! Quite big. Where do I begin to search. I'm lost. What do I do?
"Uhmm...hi...may I help you? Asked a lady
"Me? Uhmm...yes. Books on marriage"
"Which one in particular?
"How to get your husband to love and touch you"
"We have books related to that. You may sit over there while I get them for you"
"Really? Thank you ma'am. Dear Gavin, I'm coming for you and trust me... you're gonna love me. If love fails... you won't be able to resist my body and also stay without feeling my body"
"Ma'am..here are the books. I hope you'll find what you're looking for" said the lady.
"Yes. Thank you so much'
"I'll go ahead then. If you need any help, just let me know"
"I will "
"I'll go ahead then"
"So...where do I start from. This seems cool. Pretty interesting name"
"May is it here? Asked another lady
"Yes sure. Go ahead. Replied Arianna.
"How to have a happy home. Umm...quite interesting"
"Did you say something? Arianna asked
"No. You're...
"Does she know me? Did she recognize me? I'm wearing a face mask. It's not possible" she mumbled to herself
"You're having a hard time in your marriage?
"Uhm.. well...not really'
"I'm Josephine, a marriage counselor and therapist. You're welcomed to visit me at my office and we can have a cool one on one talk on how to fix your marriage. I know, I read books but most times...my inspiration on how to solve issues comes from the stories and issue before me and not by what I've read from bunch of books. Here's my business card"
"Ain't you here to read?
"No. I returned some books my daughter borrowed and I decided to get a few minutes rest before hitting the road. I'll go ahead then"
"May I come with you? I'm in desperate need of help to save myself and...more especially my marriage"
"You wanna come with me girl?
"Yes. May I come with you?
"Sure. You're welcomed to join me"
"I'll return this. Meanwhile...my car is parked outside. It's a black Audi R8"
"I have my car parked outside too. A white Tesla"
"Sorry, I didn't know you came with your car. I thought you lived close by"
""It's okay. Just meet me outside girl.
"Yes I wil"
"Welcome to my office. Please do have a seat my dear" "Nice office. Nice firm, I must confess. Everything looks so great " "Really? Thank you for the lovely compliments. Please sit. Care for a cup of coffee? "Yes I do. Thank you for the offer" "Okay. One minute...Miriam...two cups of coffee. Type missy? "I think I'll have espresso" "Okay. Two cups of espresso. Please be quick. Good. So, where were we? "Nowhere actually..." "Okay. Uhmmm....why are you wearing dark shades and a nose mask? Are you really okay? Domestic violence" "What? No way. He will never do that. I just love wearing dark shades" "Okay. Let's start with the session. Let's start with yo

She approached Gavin's driver with a fist. "Look what you did to my car" she yelled at him "Mya apologies but I'm not at fault. You're on the wrong lane ma'am" "You're arguing with me? "No. I'm just telling you the truth. You're on the wrong lane. If you still insist that you're right... I'll call in the insurance company to take up this issue. " "Yes. Call them" "Hold on..."

Arianna arrived at her marriage counselor's office for a meeting with her. Her secretary handed a note to Arianna which the counselor dropped with her. The counselor was out of town. The note was a list containing what Arianna should do to entice her husband. Arianna smiled after reading the note and thanked the secretary and returned home. She quickly placed the note in her box. She picked up her phone and dialed Kimberly's number. She asked her to meet up with her at the mall for some shopping.Arianna picked her bag and left for the mall.

Arianna got home pretty late as her shoot ended really late. She managed to drag herself to her room. She went into the room and shut the door, tossing her bag aside, removed her shoes and began to unbuttoned her shirt. She sat on the chair and removed her jewelleries and placed them on the desk. She quickly removed her shirt and her skirt and was left with her inner wears. She needed a massage as her body ached so bad. She took her face wipes and left for the bathroom. She switched on the bathtub tap and added her favourite and went in to have a warm bath and relax her nerves.Gavin walked in and noticed how messy the room was. Her bag on the chair, shoes on the floor, clothes on the bed and jewelleries on the desk. He was pissed. He collected her stuffs and placed them in the appropriate place. He went to his desk and started sorting out some files when Arianna walked on towels and shut the door which drew Gavin's attention.
Jayden and Arianna arrived at a fashion company for the magazine cover shoot. One of the staff showed them to you office of the designer who welcomed them in and offered them a seat and some snacks. While feeding her eyes with the decor of the office, Arianna's eyes fell on a mannequin wearing a bikini. Her smile disappeared immediately. "Oh... that's the outfit for the magazine cover" the designer said "Bikini? Arianna asked "Yes. The shoot will start soon" "So... I'll be wearing this today? Bikini? "Yes. And we'll be holding a bikini fashion show next week." Said the designer "Hold on.... I'll be on the fashion runway wearing bikini? "Yes." "You don't like bikini? Jayden asked Arianna. "It's okay. It's fine. Don't worry about me Jay

Gavin and Arianna were ready to leave for San Francisco. Miguel and Claire drove them to the airport. Gavin and Arianna thanked them for throwing a nice farewell party for them last night. Arianna and Gavin hugged them while Ace stood aside and watched them. Arianna and Gavin finally bid good bye to Miguel and Claire and left with Ace. Gavin was excited because he was returning home with his wife and son.It was a safe flight back to San Francisco and a safe drive from the airport to Gavin’s house. Arianna got out of the car and memories came rushing. Jason was already asleep and his nanny had to carry while they went inside. Everyone was happy to see Gavin and was shocked to see Arianna. Mr George was happy to see his daughter in law again and signaled Arianna to come give him a hug, which she did. Gavin asked the maids to take their luggage inside and prepare a room for Jason. Samantha was curious to know what was going on. Gavin promised to tell her after dinner.Samantha serve
“What is it? Gavin asked“I gotta dress up and leave” Arianna replied.“Leave? Why? Where are you going to?“ My room. Jason needs to take his medicine”“ Is he okay?“Yeah. Just some medications prescribed for him after the pool incident”“ Oh. But he’s got a nanny, right?“Yeah but I’m his mum. It’s my duty to take care of him, okay?“ Fine. When will I see you again?“Tomorrow but right now, I gotta go”“Okay then”“Take care Gavin. See you again” Arianna said leaving the room.Arianna rushed into her room and was shocked to see Miguel sitting beside Jason who was asleep already. Miguel’s eyes scanned her from her head to her feet and was left confused. “You’re here? Arianna asked.“Yes. I called you several times but didn’t pick any of my calls, so I had to rush over to see . Why weren’t you picking your calls and where are you coming from dressed like this? You had no lessons today. Did you attend a party? “No. Calm down. One question at a time please. I’m sorry f
That night, Gavin was ready to set things right and get his woman back. Ace advised Gavin to meet up with Claire and send a text to Arianna through Claire's phone to meet up at the golf field. Gavin did so the moment he laid his hands on Claire's phone.By 6:50pm Gavin was at the golf field practicing his speech. Arianna arrived at the golf field at 7pm and searched for Claire. She was startled by Gavin's presence. Arianna tried to walk away but Gavin stopped her from doing so. Gavin blocked her way and quickly went on his knees and apologized to her. He confessed his mistakes and how he used Claire to get to her. He apologized for hurting her in the past and told her how miserable his life became after she left him. Arianna told him that all she did is fulfilling his wish.Gavin told her that it was no longer his wish to separate from her. Arianna was surprised and asked him to get off his knees and stand up."Arianna... ever since you left, my life became a blank page and meaningle
Gavin refused to give up on pursuing the love of his life. He decided to use Claire as his weapon to achieve his aim. Gavin with Ace’s help created another opportunity for Gavin to meet up with Claire. Gavin and Claire had their seats and enjoyed some iced drink. Arianna walked in with Miguel and they grabbed their seats. Arianna became uncomfortable and jealous on realizing that Gavin is with another woman, a woman she can’t fight. She already lied to b married to Miguel and Claire is Miguel’s younger sister.Arianna tried to keep her cool but she lost it when she heard Gavin and Claire laugh out so loud and Claire leaned on him. Arianna quickly stood up and left. Miguel who was surprised followed her immediately. Gavin smirked the moment he realized that his plan actually worked. He got up immediately and left. Claire who felt lonely left too. Gavin met up with Ace at the golf field and told him everything. Ace was happy and equally excited to take their plan to the next level.
Gavin walked into the reception area when he noticed a lady standing before the receptionist. He rushed over to her and checked her out."Arianna? Gavin saidArianna turned towards Gavin and was shocked to see Gavin standing before her. She quickly looked away and tried to leave when she felt Gavin's hand on hers. Arianna pauseed for that moment. Gavin made her face him and took a better look at her. Arianna tried to break free from his grip. Gavin refused to let go of her. He tried to get closer to her but she was fast enough to pull her hand from his grip and pushed him aside. "Arianna wait, don't leave. I can't believe that this is you. Where have you been? I've searched for you everywhere. All San Francisco..."" Who's this Arianna? I'm sorry. I'm not Arianna. I'm Serena" Arianna said in a British accent." What? No. You're Arianna""Who's this Arianna? Listen, I'm not Arianna. Maybe we do look alike but I'm not her. I'm Serena Davis"" Serena? How....?"Excuse me . I have to le
Gavin couldn't stop thinking about what he saw. He believes that who he saw is really his Arianna. He could barely fall asleep. He laid back on his bed and shut his eyes to sleep but the next seconds his eyes were wide open and the thoughts came up again. He quickly sat up and was blank for a minute."What if she is Arianna? I will have to find out if she's my Arianna. I'll have to look for her if it means that I should search the entire resort to find her, I'll do that. Right now, I have to get some sleep" Gavin laid back on the bed and shut his eyes. Few seconds later, he slept off. The next morning, a knock came on door of his room. Gavin tried to ignore the knock but it kept coming. Gavin sat up and yawned. He was able to force himself out of the bed. He dragged himself to the door and unlocked the door and opened it. A fine young gentleman in a blue and black uniform stood before him with a pile of towels in his hands."Morning to you sir" he said."Morning" Gavin said scanning
Gavin searched everywhere for Arianna and hoped to meet her someday, soon. He hopes that one day he would bump into Arianna. His hopes began to fade as days went by, weeks went by and Gavin began to drink himself to sleep. Arianna's memories haunted him every day. Everywhere he went to, he could see Arianna before him, everywhere was filled with memories he made with Arianna. His office, his factory, restaurants, his house, the poolside, his garden, his bedroom, his bathroom, he couldn't get her out of his mind. He thought about her everyday and blames himself for mistreating a lovely woman given to him. It was visible that he has fallen into depression.Everyone was worried about Arianna ever since she disappeared without a sign and no contact with anyone of Gavin's family. Mr Hugh was worried as he can't believe that his lovely daughter-in-law is missing. Arianna's disappearance aside, everyone was worried about Gavin's mood. He's so depressed that he disassociated himself from his

She admired the magnificent castle like vacation home of the Hugh's. She hasn't visited this vacation home. Then it occured to her it is her first and also going to be her last Christmas at 5his wonderful place. A tear dropped from her eye and she wiped it off with her finger.Arianna felt a hand on her shoulder and turned immediately. Gavin stood before her smiling at her. He held her hand and they went in. Gavin and Arianna walked into their room followed by the maids who had brought their luggage. The maids dropped their luggage and left.Arianna went to the porch and took a good look at the view. She loved the view of their room. The ocean looked really nice but then it was cold. Gavin hugged her from behind and his hands were on hers and he kissed her cheeks."You like it here? Gavin asked kissing
Brittany's phone has been going on and on and on without any response from her. Brittany got out of her bathroom, drying her hair with her towel when she noticed her phone ring. She quickly grabbed her phone and when she saw the caller, she immediately picked the call..Arianna has been calling her for ages. Brittany immediately apologized to her for taking so long to pick her calls. Brittany informed her of the reason behind her not picking her calls and apologized again.Arianna informed her of the reason she had called and requested her to come to her house the next morning and on time.
