" Look it doesn't matter , I'm really sorry I didn't tell you." He sighs and slides his hand down his face as he leans against the headboard.
" Why didn't you tell me ?" I whimper biting back the tears.
" It's not important. He's not really my mother's child."
" What do you mean ?"
" When I was 16 , my mom found out my dad was cheating on her with some other woman with the name Stephanie..." Stephanie , that's Freddie's mother.
" We later found out , she works as a receptionist in a hotel and she's been fucking my dad for years and even had a kid. He's that stupid kid and i fuckin hate him. My mom was angry that my father would dare hide such huge secret from him. A son and a mistress. They wanted a divorce but my dad wasn't ready , said he was sorry. My mom decides to ignore him only if she stays away from my dad. He said yes but he was such a fucked
Oh my God!I'm basically flustered right now. Gray just kissed me in front of an entire college population. I don't feel good about this and it's annoying I liked it. I feel special." You're beautiful and I missed you." He whispers with a cute smile as he brush my hair off my face still holding tight to my waist." Holy fuck..." I totally forgot the guys were there. I turn around and I'm faced with their unending taunting smirk. Shit , Brandon's face is almost red." Ariel , will you please introduce us ?" Piper widens her eyes at me as she blinks her eyes." Uh , I'm sorry. Gray , this is Piper , Brandon and Alexa my cousin. Guys meet Gray."" Everybody knows Gray." They smile and crosses their arms." Hi guys." Gray said to them." I know you're planning to steal her. But please take good care of her. We're gonna leave.." Alexa grin and grab Brandon's arm as they blow kisses at me giving me faces which seemly m
~ARIEL~I shake my head at this heavy news that I just heard. Leslie's pregnant. Not just pregnant but Reid's the father. I breathe out and silently walk to the kitchen. I heard their distant chattering and to what I heard , they are throwing abuses at each other. How can she be this dumb ? Slept with Reid without protection. I lift the glass to my lips and gulp down the cold water. I need it or I might just faint at the sudden confession.Reid stomp out of Leslie's room in obvious anger. His eyes land on me as he walks out of our apartment. Leslie's face looked pale as she stuff her hands into the back pocket of the shorts she's wearing." Damn..." I murmur." What ?"I chuckle and drop the glass of water on the counter." So you're pregnant ?" I raise my brows and lean my hand on the counter." I don't know what you're talking about." She scoffs and glares at me." You're so dumb." I sl
I cuddle tight to Gray as he caresses my back." How's your internship ? You like it ?"" Theo's my boss. Such an asshole but he's manageable , just annoying." I reply." You wanna quit ? I can get you somewhere better."" Sterling Corp is cool. I like my job. He didn't really make nasty comments though. It's weird he knew we're together."" How did he know ?"" Weird right ? Remember you kissed me in front an entire college population yesterday." I smirk and thread my fingers through his hair." He wasn't hard on you right ?"" He won't even dare." I mutter." If he dares try to flirt with you , tell me. He's such a dick sometimes." He says and smack my butt." Yes boss." I giggle and wrap my arms around his torso." So where do you like to go ?"" What ?"He smirks and hover on top of me with me under his hold. His left hand stay on my lower back while the other run
~ARIEL~I watch them walk into Sin's kitchen and it's annoying I wanted to follow them inside but that might he risky. She wouldn't sell me out right ? Alexa can't be working for Vladimir , right ?I slide into my car and drive to work. As usual , I'm late. I park in the lot and I get out. People who choose to look at me looked as I rush in. Hell , I remembered Theo's morning routine. Coffee with less sugar and cream. I groan and rush out of the company and race down the sidewalk to get coffee in the nearby Cafe. After buying the coffee , I decide to buy doughnuts from a doughnut truck outside Sterling Corp. I'm hungry as hell. I greet the lady at the front as I walk past her." Ariel , Peterson." A lady with black slacks and light pink dress shirt that's tucked in , greeted me.I stop on my track and stare at me. Her smile is so fake , you could tell through her lashes." I'm the manager actually. You're the intern ?"
I hum to the song on the radio as I drive to Gray's. I'm meeting him in his office and for some silly reasons I'm feeling hot in unsual places.Just thinking about his text and most of the silly things we've done together , I really wanna have him in his office. I know I'm beginning to sound weird but hell, I don't care. He changed me and I sort of like my new me. I breathe in and park my car amidst other cars. I look at the tall glass building and ogle at it. I mean this is Gray Carter we're talking about. I should at least expect this type of magnificent buildings from him. I breathe in and step out of the car. I shut the door and walk into the company.I stop at the reception to see a brown haired lady. She looks up at me and scowl. What's her problem ?" I'm sorry , I'm here to see Gray." I say politely." Are you Ariel ?" She scowls, eyeing my choice of outfit." Yeah. I'm here to see Gray."" Yea
" Where's Gray ?" Reid asks me as he glances from me to Sarai." He's not in." I reply and cross my arms." Then why are you here ?" He asks me." None of your business , Reid. I'm sure he's speaking with Mr. Tucker. You can look for him around." I say.He huffs and stares at Sarai before leaving." What are you doing here ?" I ask Sarai again. She gives me her fake smile and walks out from the desk." I am here to see Gray."" Gray's not here. Why are you holding a flashdrive ?"" The last time I checked , you're Ariel Peterson and not a detective. What's your issues ?"I cross my arms and blink my eyes at her. She's so weird. Deep down , I have this feeling she is working secretly for Reid." Can I see the flashdrive ?"" Why should I give it to you ? It's a business drive that contains information about Gray's clients. I was here to check before you barged in."" You were frigh
I groan helplessly and scrub my scalp rather too aggressive to wash away the eggs . This is frustrating. I shampoo my hair to get rid of the eggs under the shower. God remind me next time not to play this type of game with Kennedy. Gray steps under the shower with me and I least expected that. I mean there are two shower faucets in the bathroom.He scrunches his face and scrubs his hair. Kennedy broke an egg on his head. So gross." She's so crazy..." He mutters scrubbing hard on his scalp.I roll my eyes and turn around to back him as I wash my hair." Lemme help you with that." He says behind me.My body tenses with Gray standing behind me. He massages my scalp as the water rinse our body ." Why didn't you tell me Sarai was holding a flash drive yesterday when she entered my office ?" He asks. I bite my lip and sigh." I'm sorry. I just don't wanna complicate things between you and your worker."" How did you fin
That's so embarrassing. Gray and I pull away from each other and I rub my nape. Most people look at us and go back to their business murmuring amongst themselves." How was your ride ?" I ask her and squat to her height." It was fun."" Who bought you popcorn ?" Gray asks looking down at her." I bought it. From my cursing savings if you choose to ask." She rolls her eyes and stuff her mouth filled with popcorns." How long have you been standing there ?" Gray asks." Long enough to count the stars in one night. You should see your faces. Chill , you look cute." She giggles.I blush and eat my cotton candy." Want some ?" I ask Gray." Hell no." He whines and shove his hands into his front pocket." Come on buddy , you don't wanna turn my offer down." I whisper to his ear. He groans and opens his mouth for me to stuff cotton candy in it." This taste terrible." He mutters ,
