For both the families, It was just a business deal. A partnership, that would ensure their 'Billionaire' titles. And to top it all off, they even agreed to lump their children's life, by marrying them.
The future couple had a plan of their own. A co...
And I'm getting closer than I ever thought I might

Our office closes at 5 p. m. some of the loyal employees keep working as long as they want. I have always considered them as lonely, who did not want to go to an empty house. Because I was one of those. But today, I didn't want to stay a minute after the lunch break, the higher level of the staff is busy secretly working on the upcoming merger.
I thought if I leave at 4:30 I won't look unprofessional. As I was leaving, Liam ran towards me, probably to give me the work he is responsible for doing. Not today, dear brother, I'm not in the mood. He just pretends to act all smart. In reality, he needs me. Take that rascal. Ismirk mischievously when the elevator door closed on him. And I wish it were his face stuck between the doors.

Today, the drive to her place didn't take long, can't say If it was my excitement to meet Arianna orImagine dragons, playing inside my car, the drive just seemed short.
I would have liked the attention I was getting right now at the home store, but today it felt wrong. Can't they see I am accompanied by this beautiful girl. Speaking of Arianna, who tried so hard to look scary or dangerous or whatever she was trying. It was making her look even cuter than she already is. Can you ever get scared of a bunny or rabbit -not the Donnie Darko bunny the other one- I guess Arianna didn't get the memo because the ladies were not budging.
I had to do something, so I told her about my living condition. For a great cook like her to learn about leaving my misery must be devastating because she looked like she was about to break into a sobbing mess. But quickly she recovered from it, now in front of me was ' A Girl on Mission' with a limited budget. I tried to tell her not to do it but she didn't listen to me. So I just followed her like a lost puppy and slowly we stopped getting the flirtatious stares coming our way or maybe I blocked them out.

When we reached my building I got nervous. Yesterday, I was stumbling in this place like I was highly intoxicated and now I have this beautiful girl with me. The fact that Arianna trusted me enough to spend the night with me already gave me a different kind of high.
When I introduced her to Victor. I was not looking for his approval but after what happened earlier and the fact that I did not want him to feel otherwise about Arianna, I had to do it. At the lobby, people were looking at Arianna either in awe or jealousy, just like they did at the home store.
