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...
When we first dropped our bags on apartment floors...
Took our broken hearts, put them in a drawer...
Everybody here was someone else before...
And you can want who you want...

"Congratulations, Arianna," Ranveer said when I came out of my room, wearing a dark green ankle-length gown. We are going to attend Jenny's and my graduation ceremony. I am all set to open both my restaurants. Jenny will be taking over 'Artoria,' and I 'Arianna.'
The pictures Mom and Daphne sent me of the restaurant look majestic. Neither of us went back to America this past year. During our vacations, we explored Italy. My Italian is perfetto, and Jenny can talk enough to make people understand things now.
"Thank you," I smile, sitting on the couch in front of him. Ranveer has been staying here for the past week, and unlike other times, I stayed and went on trips together with them.
"Mrs. Knight and Daphne are going crazy. They even got my mom to join their squad and received an offer to renovate a Thai restaurant, but they refused, saying the next restaurant they will be doing is another one of your restaurant chains," he said proudly.
"Now you are pulling my leg," I chuckle, shaking my head in denial.
"I am not. The restaurant opening is two weeks from now. Are you excited? Because people in Newyork definitely are."
"Terrified would be more accurate, but yes, I feel more confident now," I say, nervously wringing my hands placed on my lap.
"That's the spirit. Transfer some of that confidence to my girl. She kept babbling all night," he said sarcastically, and I rolled my eyes.
"Wait till you meet Marco. He is from New Jersey. I asked him to come work for us at 'Arianna'..." Ranveer tensed at that. I realized my mistake, so I continued, "...he is 40 and wanted to do something different. If all things go right, he might join us there."
Ranveer let out a relieved sigh, "Oh.. ok, and I will finally get to meet Jennifer's mom now," he said.
Jennifer's mom has been doing really well. Mom, who has taken over the job of hiring employees for both restaurants, has been in touch with the rehabs. The previous patients, who have been living better, healthier lives, have been offered some positions. Mrs. Schneider has found some students who are looking for a job along with their studies.
"I am ready, guys. Let's go." Jennifer emerged wearing a light blue gown, and Ranveer was lost. His eyes held the same pride and love Axel has every time he looks at me. I excused myself and went to the bathroom. I held the sink in a tight grip to control my myriad of emotions. I have the nasty habit of making everything about me. Not today.
