After Luciano left the house, he did a happy little dance while his driver took him to the warehouse. He was beyond happy today, finding out he was going to be a father was the second best news he had this year, the first being when Arielle had told him she still loves him. Everything that brings him happiness was related to her and he wanted to be done with everything so that he can focus on making her happy. After what she had told him yesterday, he had Yoey make further research and even questioned Macko and they realized she was Big Sean all along and she was the one that changed the deal they had, according to Macko, he never did anything with hard drugs and only persuaded Don because he genuinely thought they were going to partner with the government of Nigeria. With everything that happened and how Macko had helped him, it was easier for him to believe his cousin, it was easier now that they are working together, no, he still thinks Macko is a loser and still made sure to remi
The days after she got away from Lily were pretty much normal for Arielle, aside from the shock she felt now and then when someone opens the door or when she woke up from sleep, she was doing okay, she stayed at home all day and barely left her room, she watched movies and played games, she was never bored. Today, she decided to spend the day in the garden, since the gardener was working, she decided to help him and also learn the names of some of the flowers and plants in the garden. That’s how she spent her morning and some part of her afternoon learning the names of flowers and their varieties and also getting mud in her clothes while she helped the gardener who seemed overwhelmed by her presence at first but slowly got used to her and they sort of became friends. She thanked him for having her after they were done and she went back inside. It was almost time for Luciano to return from work so she took her bath and decided to watch tv. Arielle turned on the TV to keep her enterta
“So? When are you going to agree to my marriage proposal?”Luciano asked, hugging her from behind. She turned and hugged him, her big tummy getting in the way, it has been five months since the whole thing ended and five straight months of pure bliss, she was currently in her sixth month of pregnancy and her tummy was almost bigger than her whole body. Earlier today at his cousin Macko’s wedding party, she had caught him watching her a lot of times but she ignored him each time. Even though she had forgiven him for what he did all those months ago, she was getting her revenge now and it was fun making him beg. “I told you that I am a hard girl,”She reminded him and even though she didn’t see his face, she knew he was sulking. The past five months have done a lot for their relationship, Luciano has been nothing but the devoting lover, always fuzzing over her and making sure she didn’t lack anything. “Pretty please accept me already, I am a poor orphan,”he pleaded. The corny man she
Three months later. “Luciano? Get your ass in here,”Arielle yelled for her husband as another wave of intense pain hit her, she let out a loud howl as she felt the pain shoot right to her back, she tried to take slow steady breaths like she had been instructed to during the classes for the first mom that she had attended but nothing was working and the moron she married wasn’t coming out. She breathed in and out a couple of times, counting one to eight back and forth, she waited for the pain to subside before trying to call him again. “LUCIANO IF YOU DON’T GET YOUR ASS IN HERE THIS MINUTE,’’ She yelled louder this time and the door swung open in seconds to reveal the panicking face of her handsome husband who looked like he saw a ghost when he saw the way she was. “What is going on? Are you okay?”He asked. She knew she should be calm with him and not take out her pain-inflicted anger on him but he sounded so dumb and the look on his face, the sudden surge of pain that erupted in
"Arielle? the director wants to see you,"Arielle heard her co-worker Mary say, she stopped what she was doing and looked up at her."What? why?"she asked. "Do you think I know? how would I know? you can do yourself some good and go find out yourself, I already did my part,"Mary responded.Arielle was used to getting negative vibes from her co-workers, no one here liked her and it wasn't something new, she was used to not being liked by anyone, in her twenty-four years of living, the only people that have come close to liking her were her mom and stepdad, even her own dad didn't want anything to do with her and had left her mom before she was born, her stepdad, however, didn't leave her but she didn't feel all that much love from him either, but at least he was there, her mom, well, she couldn't define her relationship with her mom even though they lived together, they barely interact and it was just like that."Are you just going to stand there a
Arielle stared at her stepfather, she honestly didn't want to be here, she shouldn't have come home in the first place, not like she had anywhere to be, maybe she would have taken a walk and she won't have been here listening to him talk about marriage.“Your dad borrowed money in your name, and I found out about it, he practically used you as collateral and if he can't pay back, you will have to pay,”Her mom said and Arielle turned in her direction.“What? What do you mean?”She asked her mom but she didn’t say anything again, she turned to her dad.“Dad? What did mom just say?”She asked. She couldn’t take her mom seriously, she was always talking nonsense.“That’s why I wanted you to agree to get married and we won’t be having any issues, I just need to let him know and my debt will be off,”He boldly stated and Arielle’s eyes widened in shock."Dad, please tell me this is not true, you are joking, right? You are pulling one of those tricks on me again,"Arielle said willing her s
Luciano sat in his Seattle office staring at the list of debtors in this city alone, and none of them were willing to pay up, he just couldn't get why people were dense and so irresponsible, when they come for help it is always so easy but when it is time to pay up, he always has to result to violence, why can't people just be straight forward and then when he plays by the music they choose they call him the villain.He couldn't deny that he was a villain, he came from a family of villains and didn't know anything more than violence since he was born, his great grandfather has built an empire from scratch and gave them a legacy that they were keeping together, the Siegel empire was his whole life and it was his job to protect it and make sure there is growth in his time, even though he wasn’t totally in charge yet he knew it would only take a while to get it! He just needed to get the Don, his grandfather to agree.For now, he needed to get these mudafuckers to pay up what they owe, o
“Dad!”Arielle yelled at her dad, the man was impossible, how could he suggest something like that? Even though she knows she can’t possibly pay off the debt her dad owes Luciano, there was no way she was going to let him have his way with her, her dad was mad for thinking she would marry someone like Luciano, that’s if Luciano would even see her that way, he was more of the model women kind of man, all the ladies he has ever been pictured with are all glamorous model and she won’t fit even if she tries to, oh wait, why was she even thinking it, it won’t happen. “So? You think I will take your daughter in exchange for my money? Think again, I will let you be for today but you have one week to pay back all the money you owe me or you get what you bargained for, you already know the consequences,”Luciano said, turned to her and gave a cocky smile before turning to leave, he was followed by his subordinates, she let out a breath that she hadn’t known she had been holding and collapsed
