Wasn't she blacklisted by her mother from a few designer stores?""Hmph, she probably had to ask someone to buy it for her. How shameful!"If she heard any of the gossips about her, Ariana didn't show any signs of it having an effect on her. She kept her eyes focused on the screen of her phone, scrolling through the list of 'What's New' on Fashion Nova with an indifferent expression. If it had been anyone else, they would've cracked severely while facing the endless pressure and criticism she had to endure, but something inside her fought to hold on.The crown might have fallen, she hadn't.Besides, she didn't have time to engage in their mindless chatter and gossip. If she wanted to, she could instantly snap back and put all of them to shame, but she was too hungry

After Talon had readily agreed to the plan within the span of three seconds, Ariana know she was cornered by the Navarro siblings with no where to run to. Thankfully, before she could be dragged further into Quinn's scheme's, the actress was whisked away by her parents who called and asked her to go back to the hospital since they had just arrived and they wanted to check up on their eldest son. Before she left, Quinn ensured to leave enough money to split the bill in half. Ariana polished off the last of her wrap and fries before paying the bill and leaving. By the time she got home, she was too tired to do anything so after her night routine, she threw herself on the bed and fell asleep in less than a minute. •••••The next morning, Ariana found herself hailing a cab and giving the driver the address to her father's house outside of the city. Usually, the cabs didn't travel so far out but the hefty tip into the jar was enough to willing make him take her anywhere. Heck, if she wan

Over the next few days, Ariana kept herself busy. Her father called her in a number of times to review the other proposals which came in and she spent at least three days doing so. The rest of her time was spent at her secret job. Since her days were busy, it kept her distracted from reality but the second she set foot into her lonely apartment, she would be instantly reminded of everything which went wrong in her life.Between her constant plague of nightmares, she barely managed to get a wink of sleep and when she finally did, she found herself sitting in her father's jet on her way to London for her sister's birthday party.The party was expected to start at 7:30 p.m. and Ariana had arrived in London at 6:15 p.m., meaning she had an hour and some to get to the venue before she was considered late.

"Is this twenty-three year old business tycoon, Elliot Navarro's girlfriend?""Breaking news: King Pin Elliot Navarro spotted leaving the banquet of Seraphina Montmorency with his girlfriend Ariana Montmorency at his side!""Is there romance in the air? Ariana Montmorency and Elliot Navarro leave the birthday banquet together through the back entrance!""How many days until the wedding?!"It had barely been two days yet the internet showed no signs of letting the incident at Seraphina's birthday banquet lay to rest.The expensive attire worn by the guests and the shocking appearances of the rarest celebrities barely made headlines for more than three hours before a few photos suddenly surfaced on one of the popular media blogs.And then there was chaos.The extravagant details of the banquet and the jaw dropping guest list was long forgotten as the media flew into a whirlwind and two of the least expected people became the most searched topic for the next 48 hours.And as expected, the

After eating, the girls decided to make their final run through the mall before parting ways. Quinn had volunteered for her driver to drop Ariana home after she dropped out at the studio but Ariana declined. She planned to hail a cab back to her apartment. Taking out her phone to check her messages while she walked, her eyes bulged when she saw the amount of missed calls from her father.Her father had been in Syndey for an extra week since the banquet so his calls signaled that he had just landed in Melbourne and his personal security had informed him of the headlines he had missed.Oh how peachy!Ariana gulped nervously.
