"Mike has ulcer" she replied."What!" Ariana exclaimed. She felt like she didn't hear what Bella said. How could her little brother be diagnosed with ulcer."I'm sure he hasn't being feeding well. How did this happen Ariana?" Bella said with disappointed gaze on her face."I...I don't know" Ariana cried. "Start treating him, please" she begged. "Okay, you can go see him now" she left Ariana.Ariana walked into the room where she saw Mike still whining in pain and he still held his stomach. How could she let this happen to her brother, she admit she wasn't paying any attention to her brother and she's only concerned about her mother but why did this happen."Mike..." she called out his name and sat down on the stool next to the bed."Ariana, my tummy hurts, it hurts" Mike cried."I'm so sorry, it's going to be fine, okay, you're going to be fine, just endure it a little longer. Bella will soon be here to attend to you" she coax him but he still cried. Bella came into the room with a f
They arrived at the hospital and Ariana sat down and she prayed. Jack told her that her mom is undergoing surgery, she didn't know that her mom's condition has worsened to that extent. In a few hours the doctors came out and some nurses rolled her mom out of the surgery room."You must be her daughter, Ariana right?" the doctor asked."Yes" Ari answered."The surgery was a success" he said with a smile on his face."Thank God!" Ariana exclaimed and droplets of tears left her eyes. Her mom is safe.The nurses transferred Helena to the VIP room that chairman Jack ordered. Mike and Ariana sat down and they watched they're mother who is in a deep sleep. Ariana is so glad and grateful that her mom is fine, who knew that help was already sent to her. But now she has a fiancee. She don't mind having a fiancee now, her mom is safe and that's all that matters. Mike will soon be going to school and she too will continue her school, so it's a win-win.She and her brother went home, she must ens
Xavier drove Annie and Ariana to the mall where Anika waited impatiently for them. She is so excited to see her brother's fiancee, her dad told her that they've already met before so he is keeping her brother's name a secret because he wants Ariana to be shocked when she sees him. "Hi!" Anika waved and rushed to them. "You must be Ariana, so nice to meet you" Anika hugged her tightly. Ariana was quite surprised. When she caught a glimpse at Anika, she thought that Anika would be rude and Arrogant like every other rich girl but she's sweet. She reminded her of her brother."Sorry" Anika smiled. "Aren't you going to introduce me to your friend?""My bad. This is Annie my bestie since kindergarten and Annie, this is Anika, my soon to be sister in law" Ariana introduced."Hi" Annie smiled despite not understanding what Ariana meant by sister in law."Hi, so nice to meet you" Anika smiled."We're going to have so much fun today. Luckily my dad gave me his credit card for today" Anika flas
Ariana arrived at the hospital, she hurriedly walked into her mom's room and she spotted Mike sitting on a chair devouring a sandwich."Hey" she said to get Mike's attention."You're back!" Mike ran to her and hugged her. "Wow, you look beautiful today. Is this your hair?" Mike asked. Ariana squatted so that Mike can touch her hair."Yeah, it's cool right" Ariana smiled."Are you sure that this is your hair?" Mike asked again to be sure and he fiddled with her hair."Just because I always tie my hair in a bun doesn't mean that this isn't my hair" Ari stated. "Do you like it?" Ari ask."Yeah, it's beautiful. I like your hair like this, don't tie it in a bun again" Mike instructed mimicking his father."Yes Dad" Ariana giggled. "How was school?" she asked."Amazing, I made a friend, his name is Jace" Mike had a big smile on his face as he narrated how he met Jace at school."Wow, he sounds like a good boy just like you" Ariana commented. "I have to go now" she added."Who's that?" Mike
"Oh, I guess my dad didn't mention this to you but you'll be living with my brother" Annie said."What!" Ariana eyes widened like saucers. "Why about my brother?" she asked."He'll be living with my dad. He had always wanted a third child so I guess your brother can fill in that space as his third child" Anika said."Wait...this is a lot to take in" Ariana panicked and she stammered."Sure is a lot" Annie said with that look saying 'i warned you'."You'll be fine, let's go. My brother will be home soon, you'll be staying in his villa" Anika stood up. Annie hugged them both and she escorted them to the car where she collected the clothes she shopped for. She was too angry and so she left without collecting them, luckily Anika brought it back to her.******* At the villa.Anika helped Ariana unpack her clothes in the guest room. Ariana took a shower and Anika gave her a dress to put on. "Let me apply some makeup on your face" she said and she brought a small makeup tools from her bag.
A week earlier at Chairman's Jack house."Dad I don't want to get engaged to any girl" Zach complained and he slumped back on the chair."What about our deal, have you forgotten. You still haven't given me the name of any girl that is going to do a good job as your fiancee""I have a girlfriend" "Who, Casey?""Yes and you know that. Dad I love Casey and not any random girl and I want to marry her"."Zach you can't marry her, okay. She's not the right one for you" "And how do you know that she's not the right one. Dad I want to marry Casey, that's my only request from you just let me marry her" Zach pleaded."We already have a deal. For f*ck's sake you'll be nineteen in a few month...""Dad please""A deal is a deal, you'll get married to the girl that I choose for you. Understood!""Yes sir" Zach said and he walked out of the office. His dad is always strict with him and he misses his mom. If only she is here then she would have persuaded his father for him. Well he just doesn't know
"I was so worried about you" Jeff stated and he released her from his embrace. "I know and I'm fine" Ariana smiled."Where have you been?" "Settle down everyone" the biology teacher interrupted their conversation. Ariana quickly sat down on her desk.Casey hurriedly ran to Zach's base in school. Since his father owns the school, Zach had a little building in the school where he goes for recreational purposes and this place is also like an office for him. Whenever his father travels to another country for business, it's up to him to maintain and monitor the school affairs. Only students from prestigious families are allowed in that building and Casey is not an exception."Zach!" Casey yelled as she searched for him. Zach heard her and he frown. He's so exhausted and he can't deal with Casey's drama today. He's still pondering on how to cut off the engagement between him and Ariana."Zach" Casey sighs when she found him lazily siting on the couch."What Casey?"he asked lazily."Zach,
"So tell me the truth" Mike said as he ate his chips."What truth?" "About your fiancee. Is he not treating you well? I can tell Dad to scold him for you" Mike stated."I'm fine so don't worry" Ariana reassured him. Mike folded his hands akimbo and raised an eyebrow."Why do I feel like I'm being interrogated?""Spill it" Mike insisted."I just don't like him and we don't get along so well" Ariana confessed."Why don't you like him. Is he not handsome?""Mike stop asking questions and just eat" Ariana insisted."Okay" Mike sighs. Ariana's phone rang. It's Anika."Hi" she smiled."Hey. Can you come to my house, I'm very bored" Anika sighs over the phone."Sure" Ariana smiled. She felt happy, she doesn't want to see that monster's (Zach) face so this is a great opportunity for her."Great, I already called Annie and she's on her way" Anika said with excitement. "Who's that on the phone?" Mike asked."Anika, anyway finish eating and we're heading to her place" Ariana stated.After havi
