ARABELLA CAMERONEvery girl wants on her wedding the person she loves the most in this world to be present but in my case, it's totally different.I wanted Simon to be by my side at my wedding, leading me through the aisle but again he isn't here. He talked to me last night and said he can't come right now because there are a few things going on with his company.I know things are not well with him but can't he for once come to see me? I am not getting married every day.The designer made this dress so fucking heavy. When I described it to him I didn't think it would be so freakin' hard to handle this stuff.Well, I wanted a dream wedding and to some extent, it is going as I wanted.Just like my books!Well if you are wondering why to some extent that's because my husband is going to be the person who is super nice to me but he won't ever love me. By the way, if you weren't wondering then ignore the above explanation.While walking down the aisle when I raised my gaze the one person
ARABELLA HERNANDEZ I woke up in the morning just to find Diego still sleeping beside me.Well, last night he made some rules for me, and he some of them he reminded me again also asking me to note them down properly.Getting up from the bed I made my way to the washroom, doing my morning business changing my clothes I made my way downstairs. When I entered the kitchen, I didn't see anyone so I thought why not make breakfast?When I was halfway preparing the breakfast a woman entered the kitchen, she looked in her early fifties maybe. Her eyes widened when she saw me. She came inside making her way toward me."Who are you? What are you doing in the kitchen? Jesus Christ! Am I fired and I don't know anything about it?" She started bombarding me with questions.I waited for her to calm down then when she finally stopped talking, I cleared my throat and said "Hey, I am Arabella-"But before I could complete my sentence she started again "Oh hey Arabella, I am Deborah you can call me Deb.
ARABELLA HERNANDEZ The next day when I woke up Diego was already dressed up for his work. He was sitting on the couch reading some files.Sitting up on the bed while rubbing my eyes I said "Good morning.""Morning. It's still early, you can get some more sleep." He replied."You're leaving early?"He nodded "I have some work in the office.""So that means you won't be having breakfast with us?" I asked sadly.Yesterday we had our breakfast together and it was so nice. I don't want this house to be like my previous house.He looked up from the file at me then smiled "I know you like to have breakfast with everyone and I promise I'll be there for the breakfast tomorrow just today I have a really important meeting."I nodded smiling."Go back to sleep." Saying that he got up from the couch with the file in his hand. Coming closer to me he placed a kiss on my forehead making me freeze completely.I literally froze. This was something strange, he has not done this earlier."Take care. Bye
ARABELLA HERNANDEZ In the afternoon after lunch Diego and I lay on the bed, he was staring at the ceiling with his one hand resting on his temple while I closed my eyes trying to sleep."So what did you buy today?" Diego asked.A little surprised by his sudden change in behavior, I opened my eyes and turned to him "You want to know?""Yeah tell me."I smiled "So I bought a lot of dresses. Like many, I lost count. Then I ate burgers and chicken pops. I had to buy makeup sets too but before that, the mess occurred." I replied pouting.He smiled looking at me "So you wanna go out in the evening?"I gave him a suspicious look.Looking up blankly again he continued "You said you couldn't complete your shopping so how about we get that completed?"I got up on my elbows looking at him straight "What is the reason for your sudden mood change?""If you want, we can go or just leave it. I can do my work."My eyes widened "No. No. No. Please I want to go.""Cool be ready then. Now let me rest a
ARABELLA MARTINEZScared as hell, I managed to drag myself to the bed and sat, I have already started sweating. At the same time Diego entered the room as soon as he saw me he seemed worried."Bella?" He called. Ignoring him I lay on the bed still in shock. Covering myself with the duvet I turned to my side trying to sleep and even forget that I even saw that picture.I can't explain anything to him, not now at least."Bella, you okay?" He asked again but I was too scared to even reply to him. I had a lot of questions going through my mind which very well are going to remain unanswered.Slowly I closed my eyes trying my best to fall asleep."Ara stays in here don't get out," Dad instructed pushing me inside the cupboard."But Dad yo-""Don't say anything just be here and don't get out whoever calls you unless it's Simon."I nodded and cowered myself sticking to the cupboard. There was a small hole in the cupboard from where I saw the black-outfit man shooting Dad.The man shot on his
DIEGO HERNANDEZWhile I was working in my office, I got a text from Mark. Mark is the guy whom I have hired to be Arabella's bodyguard and also the driver.He sent me a picture of Arabella sitting with a guy at some café. She seemed pretty happy with him.Mark also told me that they were friends.Friends?But according to what I know, Arabella never had any friends. Is there something I missed out about her?I called Christopher."Diego Hernandez it is." His voice sounded so happy.But this man to me will always be annoying."I have something to ask." I hate him. I hate him with all my heart and soul. But to keep her safe I have to make a few things clear.Things this woman is making me do."What can I help you with?""How many friends does Arabella have?" I asked directly.It took a minute for him to reply "She doesn't have any.""You sure? You are not missing anyone, are you?""No. Aaron knows her the best he is saying she doesn't have any friends."I hung up without giving him ano
CONNOR CAMPBELLWhen I entered the house I was completely shocked to see the scene in front of me. Everyone in the house was lying lifeless on the floor. I looked around the room just to see blood and dead bodies."V-Vincent-" I heard Dad's voice. My eyes fell on the body lying."NO!" I yelled and ran to Dad. I held him in my arms he was still breathing. "D-Dad, don't worry. I am here." Looking at my men I yelled at them "TAKE OUT THE CAR RIGHT NOW?"I was about to pick him up in my arms when he stopped me "N-No son. Y-You c-can't save me.""Dad I can take you to the hospital," I said again trying to pick him but he stopped me again."It's too late now. Y-You c-can't.""Dad." I could feel tears in my eyes."S-Simon C-Cameron destroyed e-everything. V-Vincent-" He stopped, his hand left mine falling to the floor."D-Dad?" I called him but never his reply come. Hugging him I cried also looking around at everyone's body lying on the floor made me feel sick.I will destroy that man.I open
ARABELLA HERNANDEZ When my eyes opened in the morning, I found myself in Diego's arms. His eyes were still closed looking peaceful while sleeping and damn that messy hair look.Oh, Sweet Jesus! Are you trying to kill me early in the morning? Last night, I was happy to share my feelings with him. I was happy to finally let someone know how I still feel, how those nightmares still haunt me.Getting up from the bed I made my way to the washroom. After taking a shower I went downstairs to find Dad talking to Deby, more like arguing with her.I rolled my eyes.Every morning Dad fights with that old woman. She's his mother's age but who can explain this to the old man?I went towards them and greeted them making them stop fighting. Again I made my way toward the kitchen and started preparing the breakfast. Diego joined us at the breakfast table all dressed up and ready to leave for his work. Tomorrow is my book launch event, I have to inform him.Not that I expect him to come there for
