Chapter 62:Lawson's group was a very popular Industry. It would be a lie if she said she wasn't proud of him. Ariana heard it was hard to get into that company. Only the best were able to make it. Even his own relatives aren't working in his company. She would be very pleased to see him and work with him. Ariana rolled with her face looking up. Her phone vibrated beside her. She looked at the caller ID and she felt her heart shatter into a million pieces. Her throat went dry as she stared at the ringing phone. All the senses in her body that had slowly started to shut down had woken up. She had already forgotten he existed. Why was he calling her at this moment. The feeling In her stomach was making it uneasy for her."Hello?" She answered."Hi Ariana," Calhoun answered in a hoarse voice.If a voice could give you a heart disease then Ariana would have been dead in the spot.She squeezed her eyes shut before she let out a shaky breathe. Calhoun chuckled before he spoke again,

Chapter 64:"Aria my child we can still talk about this, you don't have to leave," her father pleaded as she struggled with her bag out of the house.Her mother cared less, she stood by the far end of the room and fumed. She felt like her daughter was exaggerating. This was a minor thing. It wasn't like they took her entire savings. She had only received two million dollars from Aria and she was being dramatic about it."What do we want to talk about?" Aria asked as she wiped the tears from her face. "What is there to talk about?"Her father moved closer to her in an effort to try and hold her but Aria raised her hands stopping him."Don't touch me," she whispered sternly."I'm sorry. I won't touch you." He held his hand back, "but you can't leave like this. You are hurt, I can't let you go just like that." There was pain in his eyes as he spoke to her. Ariana knew that her father was misled by her mother but the fact that he had allowed his greedy wife to lead him astray was what pi

Chapter 66:Job hunting wasn't as easy as Aria had thought. She went through every newspaper in the city for a week now, yet nothing good came up. She wrote hundreds of Résumé and submitted applications in almost every company in the city, yet no one had called her."Shit!" She spat as she tore a piece of letter and threw it in the bin."Aria, relax. I am sure we will find something," Lisa told her."When? Lisa that was the fifth rejection letter have gotten in the last six days!" Aria cried out as she pulled her hair."I shouldn't be saying this but I think Alice had dropped a bad review about you. No one wants to employ you because of her. I still think we should give it some time until she forgets about you," Lisa suggested."Till when? Lisa I will starve if I keep waiting! I don't have money anymore!" Aria blurted out.How was she suppose to survive when her little savings was dwindling by the day!"Just relax. If worst comes to it, we can stay in the same house and share rent. Fo

Chapter 68Ariana sat up abruptly and snatched up her phone from her large bed once again to dial Zion's number. She needed to be sure, Alice had not gotten to them too."Hey, our latest member," Zion greeted and Aria smiled.Fear was already crawling into her and she found it hard to believe it as well. Nobody got employed by the great Lawson's Group just by a call. Could it be a lie?"Hello, Ariana?" Zion called and Aria fluttered her fears away."Hey, huh- I got the reply," she said weakly.Zion picked up the uncertainty in her voice and he frowned. "Ariana, what's wrong? You have been given a reply already, what else bothers you?" A few minutes ago she had been very excited about the job and now she sounded like a deflated balloon."The thing is... I wanted to know- huh, does the Lawson group work, Alice? I don't know but she has been preventing me from getting a job elsewhere, I am just scared that she might take this away too..." Aria trailed as she sniffed away the tears that w

Lisa was in Aria's living room and they were expecting her high school friend Zion to come so they could eat. "If Zion doesn't get here in the next five minutes, I am going to eat without him!" Aria groaned for the nth time. Lisa would normally roll her eyes and scold her about it but for some reason she was quiet and she gave no reaction. Ever since Aria told her about the job she got from the Lawson Group, Lisa had not been able to get herself. The letter she had sent to their official email still haunted her. How was she supposed to tell Aria that she would soon get a rejection when Aria was this excited about it? How? Ariana noticed that her friend wasn't very responsive despite her attempts at making her talk all day. Lisa had a meeting with Alice and she only got back a few minutes ago, yet she barely said two words. Maybe it would be best they sorted it before Zion came. It wouldn't make sense for Zion to come and meet them acting almost hostile to one another. "Lisa, are y
