Francis grabbed him, pulling him closer.
"How could you do this to me?" Francis said and pushed him away very hard making him fall.
Edward and Vincent ran in.
Andrew got up and stared at Francis.
"What's wrong with you" Andrew said and wiped the little blood on his lips.
"As from today let's stay away from each other" Francis said and left the class.
On his way out he bumped into Daniella.
"Hey Francis" Daniella Said.
Francis ignored her and walked away.
"Why is he acting that way?"Daniella said.
"Maybe he has seen the photo" Lucy said as they entered the class.
"What happened to him?"Andrew asked.
"Just take a good look at this" Edward replied, giving him his phone.
"Who posted this?" Andrew said.
"Daniella " Vincent said slowly.
Andrew became furious.
"Andrew" Daniella called.
Andrew walked toward her and dragged her outside.
Ariella stared at Daniella till she was out of sight.
" Finally I can have Francis all to myself"Cindy laughed with her friends Regina and June.
" And I can't wait to have Andrew" Regina smiled.
"Edward will be mine"June laughed.
"I can't believe she could do something like that" Edward said.
"Yeah"
"Andrew will be really mad at her" Lucy said, looking disappointed.
<><><><><><><><><><>
"So this is what you want to do that's the reason why you asked me to sleep beside you yesterday night" Andrew asked.
"What did you mean?" Daniella said pretending.
" Explain this" Andrew said and brought out his phone for her.
"It's not what you think" Daniella said.
" Ella tell me what I think" Andrew yelled.
Daniella looked shocked because Andrew never yelled at her since they were kids.
"Because of this stupid photo you posted Francis is mad at me thinking we are dating Ella" Andrew said.
" I don't care about what he thinks since he and I are not dating" Ella said.
"Just delete that post" Andrew said.
" What if I don't "
" My friendship is at stake here"
"What friendship?" Daniella said.
"My friendship with Francis" Andrew said.
"With your playboy friend, I don't care"Daniella said.
" Ella why are you acting like this, if my friendship ends with Francis I won't mind ending my friendship with you"Andrew said.
" Is it up to that"
"It's more than that" Andrew said and walked away.

DAISY'S PLACE:
" Where are you going?" Daisy asked, looking at Rose all dressed up.
"Looking for a job" Rose said, opening the door.
"Stay safe"Daisy said.
"Okay, bye" Rose said and went out.
" I hope she finds a job soon" Daisy muttered.
MARTINEZ'S COMPANY**
"Have you finally decided who you are going to give all your property to?"Amanda asked.
"Not yet but I am planning to give it to Ryan"Ray replied.
" Why"
"What about Chris?"Amanada said.
"I'm going to give him 25% of it"
"Ariella is going to 25% also" Ray said.
" You are giving Ryan 50%, what about me?"Amanada said.
"You have more than enough money already"Ray said.
" So you're giving Chris just 25% because he's not your biological son" Amanda said.
"What did you mean"
" I treat Chris just like my son"Ray said.
" Why can't you give him 50% and give Ryan 25% since he has his own companies" Amanda said.
"I will think about it" Ray said.
"When is Chris arriving?" Ray asked.
" Today"
" Let all the family have dinner together tonight" Ray said.
" Including Ryan and Ariella"
"Yes"
" Why"
" Are they not part of the family?" Ray asked.
" They are"
"So I'm inviting them over" Ray said.
" Okay" Amanda said and left the office.

NIGHT
DAISY'S PLACE**
They all sit down eating dinner quietly.
Daniella keeps staring at Andrew because ever since they left the school he hasn't talked to her.
"He's not going anywhere,eat your food, it's getting cold" Rose said.
" I'm almost done with it" Daniella said.
Andrew stood up and went to drop his plate into the kitchen.
Andrew came out and went to the sitting room.
"How was work today?" Rose asked.
"Fine as always but Mr Steven is still in the hospital"Daisy laughed.
" Serve him right"
"What about you did you find any job?"Daisy said.
"No"
"No one is willing to apply me, some are ever asking for sex" Rose said looking disappointed.
" I'm coming " Daisy said and went to her room.
Daniella stood up and went to the sitting room.
She sat down beside Andrew but he stood up and sat somewhere else.
Daisy came back with a flier in her hand.
"Here "Daisy said, giving her the flier.
Rose read it slowly.
" It's a job for a maid" Rose said excitedly.
" You can do it right "
"Yes"
"You have to go there very early tomorrow morning to get the job" Daisy said.
" Thank you very much Daisy" Rose said and hugged her.
" You're welcome"
°°°°°°°
MARTINEZ'S MANSION**
They are all done with the dinner and Ryan and Ariella are about to leave when Chris approaches them.
" Wait" Chris said when Ryan was about to enter his car.
" What's it "Ryan said.
" Let's talk, mom wants to talk to the both of us" Chris smiled.
Ryan stared at him knowing he doesn't smile like that except if he's up to no good.
" Go in" Ryan said to Ariella.
"Okay"
"Just stay inside the car till I'm back" Ryan and left with Chris.
***
"So father wants to give you 50% of his property" Chris said as they walked in Amanda's room.
" What are you talking about"
" Hey come over here" Amanda said and Ryan walked close to her.
" If your father asked you if you wanted some of his property, tell him no" Amanda said.
"Why"
Amanda slapped him.
"How can you ask me that stupid question, you don't need any of your father's property since you're rich already"Amanda said.
"I work by myself just to get rich. Why can't your son do the same and you can have all the property to yourself,i'm sure if he wills one of father's company the company won't exist anymore" Ryan laughed.
"What"
" The company is going to go bankrupt,"Ryan said and left the room.
Chris looked angry and ran after him but because he could get out Ryan had left already.
RYAN'S MANSION**
"How was school today?"Ryan asked, taking off his clothes.
"Fine, baby face"
"Don't call me that I hate it "
"Muffin, do you remember that boy who was asked to show me around the school?"Ariella said.
" That cute looking guy," Ryan said.
"Yes"
"What happened to him"
"He and his friend got into a fight and it was actually the girl's fault," Ariella said.
" How"
"I don't really know but it seems the guy didn't know either until he was punched"Ariella said.
"Okay, hope you didn't get into any fight,"Ryan said.
"Trust me Muffin, I didn't fight with anyone"Ariella smiled.
"Okay"
"I haven't seen Mrs Charlotte since morning"
"Where is she?"Ariella asked.
"She won't be with us for some months"Ryan said.
"Why"
"Her mother is currently sick, so she had to go back home"Ryan said.
"Okay, are you hiring a new maid"
"Yes,she will be here before you get back from school"
"Can't wait to see her"
"Whatever"
"Elena is coming here to spend a week with us"Ryan said.
"Why haven't you break up with that bitch"Ariella said.
"Just be on your best behavior when she arrives"Ryan said.
"I'm always on my best behavior but she's the one that always looks for my trouble"Ariella said.
"Okay go to your room"
" Good night muffin" Ariella said and left the room.
"Can't wait to see you Elena" Ryan smiles.

DAISY'S PLACE**
"Wake up"
"Rose woke up," Daisy screamed.
"What? Why are you screaming like a woman in labor?"Rose said with her eyes closed.
"You are late, you won't be able to get the job" Daisy said.
Rose jumped out of bed and rushed into the bathroom. A few minutes after she was done, she put on a short pink gown with her purse and left the house.
Daisy burst into laughter.
"I was only joking with her"Daisy said, continuing laughing.

**MHS**
"Will you keep on avoiding me, have deleted the post already?" Daniella said.
"Yes, I think that's the best thing to do since you're so good at taking pictures and spreading fake lies"Andrew said and walked away.
Lucy moved closer to her.
"I told you about posting that picture, you said he won't get angry at you now he is seriously mad at you"Lucy said.
"What should I do now?"Daniella asked.
" I don't know "Lucy replied.
"Just apologize to him and tell Francis the truth,"Lucy said.
"Francis won't believe it"
"He would if you told him yourself" Lucy said.
"What about Andrew?"Daniella said.
"He's going to forgive you, if he and Francis start talking together again,"Lucy said.
"Thank you very much Lucy,"Daniella hugged her.
***
Andrew walked into the Library looking angry and accidentally bumped into Ariella and the books in her fell.
She bent down and started picking it up
" I'm sorry" Andrew bent beside her helping her to pick some.
They both got up when they were done picking.
"Thanks," Ariella said, collecting a few books from Andrew.
" Ohh! It's you, the new girl" Andrew said.
"Andrew right,"Ariella said.
"Yes"
" Have been looking for you," Ariella said.
" Why"
"I need you to explain some topics to me since I'm new here and you're the only one I know," Ariella smiled.
" Okay, what's your name anyway" Andrew asked.
" Ariella," She said.
" Do you mind if I call you Ari or Ella?"Andrew smiled.
"Any one is fine,"Ariella said.
" Where should we use"
"The library" Ariella smiled as they walked toward a seat.
"That new girl is flirting with Andrew, that 's so cheap of her"Regina said.
"Yeah"June muttered.
"She looks familiar to me, it seems we have met each other before"Cindy said.
"We will have to make her pay for flirting with Andrew,"Cindy said.

RYAN'S MANSION**
Rose kept pacing around as some people who were also looking for the job arrived.
They were called in one after the other for some questions, some of them left the place in tears after the interview.
Rose was actually the first to get there and was interviewed already she was asked to stay behind.
The reason why she was pacing around was because she was hungry. She hasn't eaten anything since she left home this morning.
The interview was over and there were only three of them left.
Soon the lady who was interviewing them came out.
"Good afternoon young ladies" The lady paused when a car drove in.
Ryan came down from the car and walked toward them.
Rose stared at him till he got in front of her.
"What is she doing here chasing her out?"Ryan said.
TBC…
