The moment Fiona was finally gone from view, Ariana kept gazing at the Alex fellow before her wondering desperately what his true intentions might be. He smiled at her and shook his head. "You do not have to overthink it's okay. I was just trying to help you. According to what Clara told me, it seems like you and this lady do not have much of a good history together. So I was just trying to help a friend." He said she smiled before shaking her head." I am not blaming you for anything. I appreciate your help. But you seriously couldn't think of any other way to do it?" She asked and he smirked." I couldn't waste the opportunity to get a little bit close to you and at least claim you as mine, even if it's just for a few seconds. " He said with a smirk and Ariana couldn't help the blush that crept up her cheeks.' God damn it. He is so good. ' She thought and rolled her eyes before looking away. "Yeah. Nice try." She said and he laughed. He couldn't just help it. He was already going

The news of the internet world was unknown to Ariana as she battled with a certain thought and commotion in her mind presently, and it was all about trying to do everything as much as she could so that the stunning, handsome Alexander Sterling, a few meters away from her presently, would not succeed in getting into her heart like he was directly planning to do right now. In all her existence, she had never met any man as charming as he was. God, he was just so cute, and she felt herself slowly drifting away from her original plan and purpose concerning any man who wanted to step back into her life. So, for the rest of the journey back home, she did all she could to remain silent and not say a word while she sat in the back seat of the car. Alex, from time to time, would peek through the side-view mirror of the car to take a look at her and see how she was doing. He couldn't help but notice her mood drift from the lively way it was back at the park to the dull mood she was in when he f
They both returned to the apartment and settled in with Clara, giving Ariana a long hard stare while she went around to get herself ready to prepare a meal for the both of them. Ariana felt a little uneasy with the way Clara was staring at her and tried as much as she could to ignore it but it couldn't just pass her by. After a long while, she sighed and slowly veered around to look at Clara. "Okay, I know you want to tell me something. What is it?" She asked and Clara scoffed. "Are you going to pretend like you don't know what I'm trying to insinuate? " She asked. Ariana rolled her eyes and pretended as though she didn't understand. "Honestly, I don't even understand the fuss of this attitude of yours. I just want to be on my own. Is there a crime in that? " She said and Clara scoffed. "Ari, I am not requesting that you throw your life back into the pit you escaped from but can't you at least just soften up for once for a kind dude that hasn't even done anything wrong to you and i
A deep breath escaped his lips as he glimpsed down at the piece of paper before him, whilst stroking his pen against it relentlessly and briskly, signing with so much desperation to finish on time. He wiped the bead of sweat away from his face and took a deep breath before lowering the pen against the table. Then he relaxed back against his seat and stared at the ceiling. He had decided to finish up his work at home and round up everything so he could spend the next two or three days trying to find a way to get back to Ariana and have a little chat with her. But unfortunately for him, the work before him was so piled up and massive, he knew he would have to take the whole night to finish everything up once and for all. 'God, this is just harder than I thought. ' He thought to himself as he stared at the bundle of documents on his table. He bit his lip and returned his focus to his laptop. He typed briskly into it, thinking of a better, quick way to end the entire bundle of workload be
He is still standing in his position with countless, endless, relentless thoughts about her ringing through his mind as he allows the water from the shower to continue pouring over him, washing through his body and making his desire for her a lot stronger. He raked his fingers through his hair, wiping some streams of water away from his face, and took a deep breath. 'I must not give up on this. ' He thought to himself and blinked twice to get away some water that was trying to obstruct his eyes. 'Ariana, ' he thought and gritted his teeth. 'This has already gotten to the bottom of it. I don't think I can bear this anymore. I have to hurry up with whatever I'm doing and get my work done as fast as possible tonight. But how is it going to be that easy when that relentless daughter of a bitch is still presently in my study, trying as much as she can to make my life a living hell? ' He thought and folded his arms when he heard a particular sound call his attention. His phone was ringing f
"Well, it appears you are beginning to get a bunch more requests for movie shows and lots of publicity deals these days. " Clara said as she scrolled through Ariana's emails on her laptop while shaking her head with surprise. "I did not expect that your progress was going to get you this many deals." She said, and Ariana gave her a look that made her know she thought she was crazy. Clara chuckled and shrugged, "Yeah, I guess I'm stupid. Who wouldn't receive such messages after what you have achieved?" She said, and Ariana chuckled." I was expecting it, but of course, you know the one we are going for." She said, and Clara smiled."I know, I'm just going to have to reply to all of this and inform them that it definitely will not be possible. " She said as she squinted her eyelids and adjusted her glasses while she typed away on the laptop. "this is going to be a lot of work. I mean, look at this, this is up to like 20 emails from different companies and more are still dropping in, res
Just like a flash, the next morning arrived as briskly as the blink of an eye, and Ariana found herself standing right at the entrance of the Lauder International Broadcasting Channel with Clara beside her, gently arranging her files in her folder. As Ariana looked up at the headboard that held the name of the industry right before her, she took a deep breath and folded her arms. "I did not expect to find myself back here," she said, and Clara grinned. "Can you please just ignore the past for a few moments, Ariana? We are trying to ensure the smooth progress of your career here. " She said, and Ariana shrugged. "I am not worried about it. I am going to give the interview, but I can't help being nervous that these guys will try to bring up that issue again. " She said, and Clara patted her shoulders. "Just take a deep breath and focus on the interview and nothing else. Clear your mind off the past and what you feel might happen. Just don't think about it, " she said, and Ariana heav
