"Sir,we are here"The chauffeur told Zaiden,who had his eyes glued to his phone,he noticed the worry line on the young master's face since the last few minutes they arrived here in Newyork city.
Zaiden looked up to find his driver looking at him with a confused look on his face when he noticed the car had stopped,looking through the window as if he was expecting someone out here.
He noticed the silence accompanied by standing in front of Ariana's penthouse,with a heavy heart he came down from the car but not without dialing her number for the fifth time now.
His mind has not been at rest since he made up his mind to pay her a surprise visit,he could not fathom the reason why he was feeling like this,as if coming here was not a good idea.
Waving the thoughts aside,he came down from the car with his driver at his back.
"You should find a place to stay,I will call you when i need you,"Zaiden told the young man who was assigned as his bodyguard.
"But sir.."The young man insisted on not trying to go against the order from the chairman,he knew if anything bad happened to the young master he would be a goner,but he could not stand the piercing gaze which Zaiden sent across to him to let him know that he was serious.
*Okay,I will head back to the hotel,"he said, leaving the car for him.
Zaiden put on his glasses walking into the penthouse with a cold face,heet the door man who looked at him strangely as if he met a ghost.
"Ariana Walter,which room is she staying in?"
Zaiden asked more like demanded from the door man who was still assessing him.
"I'm sorry but she said not to let visitors in today"Tony said still looking at the handsome young man looking for their top guest,he felt intimidated just from looking at him although his eyes was covered with glasses but the way he was staring at him gave him the idea that he was not a commoner.
"I insist to know,you see i have been assigned to pass some information from the manager,she didn't come for her photo shoot today"Zaiden lied through his teeth figuring out she took a day off to rest and not be bothered at all.
"Then wait,let me call"Tony said taking the telephone averting his gaze from the man who claimed to be working under miss Ariana,some part of him gave him the feeling that he was clearly lying because the way he was all dressed up,one could figure out he was a celebrity just like Ariana.
"She's not picking up,her room number is room 267"he finally told him after much attempt to hear from their young miss.
"Thanks a lot,"Zaiden said, dipping his hand in his pocket to give him a tip.
"Thanks sir"Tony said grinning like he just won a damn lottery,his face could not withhold joy in him when he saw the amount given to him.
Standing in front of room 267 was Zaiden,trying to compose himself as he could not fathom the joy on his face that he was finally going to see his Bambi.
He knocked on the door but was met with silence.
Is she asleep?
He thought,knocking again but this time the door opened,the smile on his face changing when he saw who was standing in front of him.
"Who are you?"Micheal asked the young man who was staring at him with surprise,he was adjusting the towel around his waist.
"I think I'm in the wrong room"Zaiden said, looking at the number in front of the door to make sure he didn't make a mistake or did the door man lie to him.
"Baby who's that?"Ariana asked, tying her robe around her waist tightly as she came to meet Micheal.
"Someone who made a mistake knocking on the wrong door,it's nothing to worry about!"Micheal yelled to her trying to close the door.
"We need to …''Ariana's words were cut short when she saw what was standing outside the door and when his eyes finally came in contact with hers,she felt time stopped for a minute.
What the hell!
"Babe,what's wrong with you?"Micheal asked when he noticed the discomforted look on her face.
"Z..Zaid..en"Ariana stuttered with her big eyes staring widely at him,she imagined this was not happening.
It's just a dream!
He's not real Anna!
"Ari..''Zaiden called her with mixed feelings,for the first time in his life he felt pain,trying not to believe the scene in front of him.
Wow!
"Do you guys know each other?"Micheal asked again to the deafening Ariana,he left the two walking inside to dress up when he understood what was really happening,what was he expecting from her?
She would always be a whore!
The rumours about her have always been true.
Zaiden turned his gaze away from her,putting his glasses on as he walked out,trying as much as possible not to appear defeated and hurt in front of her,but not without hearing the trembling voice of Arianna who called after him.
"Seriously Anna,you are dating someone else?"Micheal asked, jerking her out of her thoughts as she turned to see him all dressed up.
"Micheal,it's not.."
"Is he the fiance?"Micheal asked looking at her to see her surprise,well she should be.
"How did you.."
"Oh don't be so dramatic, baby!Did you actually think i won't find the ring you were keeping away from me?"Micheal asked with an amused smirk on his face.
"Then what about you,you are sleeping with Celine right under my nose,did you actually think that you could fool me?"Ariana asked with folded hands dropping her good girl facade.
"Wow,she has guts! Am not surprised about the rumours about you anyway,tell me how many men you slept with just to get to be the top model?"
"Get out!"Ariana glared at him,he just triggered her bad side.
"You do not get to order me about you slut,you are nothing but a cum dumpster!"Micheal told her in a cold tone and when he saw her clenched fist,he knew she was really pissed off.
But,who cares?
"Michael!!"Ariana yelled,attempting to slap him but Micheal knew what was coming his way,he held her raised hand drawing her closer to whisper to her.
"But i can say,you are one brave girl dating the whole entertainment company,see you around baby girl"Micheal pushed her aside leaving the brooding and pissed off Arianna to herself.
Ariana went for her phone,and that was when she noticed the missed calls and messages from Zaiden,she was at fault,she felt relaxed thinking it was probably her assistant,Mia who was calling her since today.
Dialing his number,she bit her nails anxiously,what she usually does whenever she is tensed up. When she noticed he switched off his phone,she threw her phone to the nearest settee,yelling and throwing the glass of wine to the floor.
Ariana,what have you done?
She just made a huge mistake,now,Zaiden was never going to forgive her or try accepting her back or was he?
