"I don't wish to go. You can leave now."
Ariel replied calmly and turned around to go back inside the hut. The man looked awkward as if not knowing what to do.
At this moment, the other man stepped forward and said
"Then we have to take you there forcefully."
Ariel who heard these words, stopped. A moment later, she turned around to look at the man who said these words.
Seeing that he was looking at her calmly and confidently, she smirked coldly and said
"Try it."
She shrugged nonchalantly.
The man who had been speaking politely before glared at the second man and tried to handle the situation.
"Miss Ariel, please try to understand us. We don't wish to create any scene here."
When spoken politely, Ariel also replied the same way.
"I understand that you have been ordered to do this but I don't wish to go there. You can go back and tell your master that I don't wish to see his face."
"How presumptuous of you to speak of Mr. Mintz like that! Do you even know that he can destroy these hut of yours with one order?"
It was the same woman who spoke again. Her eyes were filled with anger and she was breathing heavily as she looked at Ariel.
But Ariel didn't pay her any attention. She turned around to go back.
However, one of the man suddenly blocked her way making Ariel stop again.
"Miss Ariel, you must go with us."
Ariel looked at the man coldly said in an equally cold voice.
"Move away!"
The man however didn't listen to her. Ariel's lips were pressed in a thin line. She had just raised her hand when a voice sounded amidst this tense situation.
"Ariel! Who are these people?"
Ariel turned to look at the person who was walking towards her. It was Aunt Stella, Ivan's mother. Her eyes were eager for any kind of gossip.
Ariel huffed and could only put down her hand.
Aunt Stella, if saw anything, would surely tell her grandmother. She must handle this matter carefully.
Once near Ariel, Aunt Stella looked at all the people present and asked Ariel again.
"Ariel, what is happening here? Are you in some trouble?"
"No, They are from my workplace. My colleagues."
Ariel replied calmly. However, Aunt Stella looked suspicious when she looked at the people's clothes.
"But they look so ..."
"They are my superiors but take care of me well. My boss had called for me because we are suffering from lack of staff."
Ariel answered. Before Aunt Stella could ask more, she continued
"Aunt Stella, will you please take care of my grandmother? I really need to go right now."
"Of course."
Aunt Stella nodded immediately. This was one good thing about Ivan an his family. They lived in the neighboring hut and each one of them was ready to help her and her grandmother always. Although Aunt Stella had a little gossiping nature, as long as Ariel knew how to handle her, it was nothing to worry about.
Ariel took out some money from her pocket and handed it to Stella.
"Here....this is some money. Please make some breakfast for her. I will be back soon."
Stella shook her head and wanted to return the money but Ariel forced her to take it. A few moments later, she turned to look at the men and said
"Let's go."
Finishing her words, she silently walked ahead of the men and woman who followed her.
Aunt Stella who saw such a scene, looked suspicious again. Because from no angle, they looked Ariel's superiors but of course, she couldn't say anything without proof.
In the end, she could only go inside the hut once to check upon the old lady.

At the end of the street, where the road just started a huge car was parked.
The man opened the door for her and Ariel sat inside the car.
Once the car started, Ariel silently looked out of the window. It has been long since she saw Mintz Mansion. She would not have gone there today as well if Aunt Stella had not appeared.
But now she didn't regret.
Let's just go once and see what her so called father want from her after so many years!
If not anything else, she would consider it as a source of her entertainment in her boring life!
Thinking this, Ariel smirked to herself and leaned against the seat calmly. She closed her eyes to rest for some time.
The woman who saw her smirk, frowned deeply and called her crazy silently.
But when Ariel suddenly opened her eyes and looked at her with the same cold smirk, her eyes widened.
"You are right. I am crazy. So... you better stay careful."
The woman gulped audibly.
She had said it in such a low voice. How the hell did this girl hear her!
But no longer, she dared to say anything.Ariel didn't pay her attention anymore and closed her eyes again.
After all, she required more energy later on.
