Married for A Million Dollars:.Chapter 21: A Montenegro never .Knowing very well what she’d be getting into, she casts a glance at a concerned Keith accompanying Lance. “However, I want Keith to continue working for me since he’s a talented artist who doesn’t treat me like garbage. As long as you’re nowhere near our appointments. If not, I’m taking my business elsewhere and will get him hired somewhere else so that you won’t get anything out of it.”It’s a large hand at stake, but Ariana is willing to make it if it means she won’t have to work with Jasmine anymore. Hell, she’ll pay the price herself with the one million Williams’s giving her. It doesn’t matter as long as this bitch of a woman is no longer on her team. The criticism is something she can stomach. Mishandling a child like Alexander, on the other hand, is intolerable in her book.She just hopes the whole ordeal won't cost her more than a million dollars.Jasmine angrily brushes her hair out of the way, nostrils flari

Married for A Million Dollars:.Chapter 23: this can’t be love .When they finally make it back to Ariana’s apartment for the third time that day, Williams escorts Ariana to the bathroom, quickly pecking her cheek and informing that he’ll wait for her in the living room. Apparently his driver had already supplied him with a new set of clothes for the dinner, and all that’s left is for Ariana to shower and get ready herself.Weirded out by the fact that Williams is paying her more attention than necessary, Ariana succumbs to the warm shower after such a tiring day. The hot water does a much better job at loosening her tense muscles than the masseuse did.As her skin soaks, she tries to figure their odd relationship out and why Williams is devoting so much of his time when he could be anywhere else but tagging along with his so-called burdensome fiancée. As much as Ariana’s tempted to confront him about it, she figures she’d rather stay oblivious.At least it’s way better than them

Married for A Million Dollars:.Chapter 25: the engagement party .“Okay, okay, truce. Drink up.”Ariana smiles up at him apologetically.Realization flickers across Williams’s face and he nods. “Ah. Hey, you—excuse me, my good man.” The server curiously turns around, returning to them upon Williams’s gesture. “My fiancée would like something non-alcoholic. Can you make sure the bar’s supplied with whatever she wants?”“Yes, of course. What would you like, ma’am?”It’s weird to see how much of a trembling impact the billionaire leaves on the poor guy, so she gently says, “A lemonade, please. Thank you,” and sends him off.“I should’ve remembered that you aren’t a drinker.” Williams shakes his head. “Honestly, you make me feel like a sinner with all your virtues."“It’s a choice, not a virtue.” Ariana laughs. “Besides, you don’t need me to prove how much of a sinner you are.”“I beg to differ.” And there he goes again, lowering his voice to a husky, saccharine tone. His captivating e

Married for A Million Dollars:.Chapter 26: snitches everywhere .“What the hell Liam, you never told me your brother’s a romantic. This is perfect!” Ariana can’t help but exclaim. She uses the corner of her sleeve to wipe the sudden tears that had welled up in her eyes during the performance.“Uh huh. A nosy little romantic,” Williams mutters under his breath, earning her a questioning look.They make no further comment and listen to the rest of the cover, which moves the audience with its cleverly altered lyrics. Even Ariana has to admit the song doesn’t sound as solemn as it normally would’ve been.Without further ado, the roar of applauds fill the entire venue when Warren voices the ending and takes another polite bow. Walter returns afterwards to finish off the program.Despite Williams being as charming and attentive as ever during dinner, Ariana detects annoyance somewhere beneath those layers. Before she can confront him about it, though, Williams excuses himself to catch

Married for A Million Dollars:.Chapter 28: someone tall, lush, and gorgeous.After crying her soul, heart, and makeup into the couch pillow all night long, Ariana groggily wakes up to both a resolution and a headache.As dangerous as her fury can be, her merciful attitude always gets the best of her and therefore, can no longer hold a grudge against the instigators of last night’s incident. In her defense, Ariana’s been polishing this quality since the day her father first returned home as a drunkard. It’s come to the point where she has no choice but to pick up the broken pieces without a single reprimand.That’s why she finds herself softening at the little stunt Williams pulled. Still, Ariana is no saint, and hates herself for hurting over something she never should’ve paid attention to in the first place. In fact, it’s better to continue looking out for herself—and only herself. No baggage required.Yet she can’t help but try placing herself in Williams’s shoes before resumin
