Chereads / ARSINOE / Chapter 26 - PROPOSAL II

Chapter 26 - PROPOSAL II

"Get back to work!" I told everyone to go back to there stations,everyone knows that if she is upset no one will be happy. she has always had the tendency of making everyone around her feel her anger. I could here from a far what they were saying "Is it something to do with Mr Alex proposal earlier?" "I am not sure but i think so?" "me too, I thought they were going steady so i was surprised by the proposal" "I guess she has the right to be angry then" everyone had something to say but no one knew the pressure I was about to get myself in. I decided to go to her office, she was alone and I had to be there for her. I knocked once before opening the door, seeing her laying on the floor did break me, this scene reminded me of some time back when Mr Alexandrea and her had a fight, I am not sure what happended but when I came to her aid she was on the floor crying. "why are you here Laura?" "How can i not be here Arsinoe?" I walked to where she was "I look pathetic right? tell me the truth" each time she asks that for some reason I know that its a trap "Yes, you look so pathetic, and I sound stupid trying to convince you otherwise" she sat down facing me, her makeup was completely ruined "Jesus, you scared the hell out of me!" She smiled, mission accomplished "How can you be so dumb and cry because of that man, look how ugly you look like now" I handed her some wipes while saying that "why can't everyone love me just like the way you love me?" her questions are usually dumb every time she is emotional "that's because I am unique, and you know that, with that fix your face and go home okay you need to rest." I know she is hurting but also she hates someone who will try and and here her feel petty or sorry for herself and that's why my approach was different. "Take sometime off okay, you need it." with that Said she went to the wash room and cleaned herself before leaving the office while I was left behind cleaning up the mess. I hope she Will be fine, well I know that she will be but I need her functional because of the organisation, if they find out she usually have such intense breakdown they might think that she is unfit to represent them especially with the new elections that are coming up. She has a lot of opponents people who would drag her to the mad if they discover this.

ALEX POV

"Uncle I won't marry her, no I won't, I love someone else" this has been a heated argument the entire week, apparently there were minor gliches in the inherit process, I was to marry the daughter of General Luis Andrea was Ariana, she is a nice beautiful lady but I love Arsinoe. "Who exactly do you love, don't be stupid a deal was already made with your parents, I am just fulfilling it for them, don't embarrass the family, you will marry her and that's final" I promised Arsinoe that we will wait before we tell my uncle but I think the time is now "Uncle I love Arsinoe, she is the only one I love" well I am not sure why I thought that might change everything "Arsinoe, the same Arsinoe Alexandra, Alexander's wife, his widow, you must be joking, she is not who you think she is she is..... she will drag you down with her" he made it seem as if it's a sin, but also he was about to say something but stopped mid way " What's wrong with loving her?" "Do you want to know whats wrong with her, well i should ask the both of you?" that's when leo came in "what have I done?" he seemed clueless of what we were talking about "You know I wonder what that woman had done to the both of you, you are so obsessed with her and I fail to understand, she is no good news, why can't you see that?" "Dad stop talking about her like that, I am trying really hard to win her back and i think my efforts are paying off I just need him to back off" Leo said that while giving me this weird side eye. "Well too bad because I have no plans of stepping down" "shut up both of you, Leo forget about her and you Alex the media will be here together with Ariana and the General Luis Andrea, Do not disappointed me remember this family and all we have depends on you, before he walked away he handed me this document. Leo and I have not been on good terms ever since we both decided to peruse Arsinoe so when his dad left he too left, was actually surprised that he was here but I guess its of the same reason as me. Even though I do not stay here I still have a room in this house, so I decided to go to my room first, when I got to my room I toasted the document I was handed over earlier to the bed but immediately I had a sudden urge to read it so I sat down on the bed and opened it. After a few minutes of reading the entire document, I knew exactly what I was supposed to do then and that meant I was about to loose the love of my life. I could not believe that I was about to love the only person that I love whom it took me years to finally get. What will she think of me now, I need to find her before the media gets here. I tried calling her but Laura was the one who answered saying that Arsinoe is in a very important meeting and won't be able to talk to me. so I knew the only way was to go to her but when I got down stairs the the General and Ariana were already here.
