Mina was surprised that she still has plans for all this , the way she was feeling down yesterday after meeting Andrea makes her thought she have given up always but seeing her text now makes her happy.

Ariana left the office before closing time , she takes a cab to a place were no one knows except Ben. It was one of Ben villa were both of them have access too . She get in and went straight to her room to take a shower , she wear one of her casual clothes and went straight to the corridor .

Her mind is full with different thought, she have texted mina earlier about her having a plan which is not true, she didn't know what to do yet , she checked the time and see that it was passed 5pm already, she quickly went back inside her room and get dressed .

At the five star 💫 restaurant in vill city , both Andrea's grandma and James, alongside with Mr &Mrs Smith Ariana's parents where already seated in VVIP room . There were different types of food and drinks on the big around glass table , they were waiting patiently for both Andrea and Ariana to join them.

Mrs Hannah and Sarah was already discussing about the preparation of the wedding while James and Daniel were busy with Thier phones.

***********

Ariana were on earth are you... everyone is here already waiting for you .... please baby don't disappoint me and your mother...

Daniel was having a bad feelings about Ariana absence that why he tested her .

Andrea arrived in his black sport car looking breath taking as ever, his well tailor suit fit him perfect. All the lady's in the restaurant were staring at him with so much desire in Thier eyes, they all know who he was and they know this is one of his family restaurant, some of them have always come to this restaurant hoping to see him one day and seeing him now is a dream come true for some of them .

The manager quickly walk to him and gesture his hand to lead him to the way.

Andrea walkd in , he greeted his grandma and Ariana's parents before taking his sit , he glance at James with the look of what are you doing here . James give him the look of grandma forced me too .

A minute after Ariana arrive and greeted everyone with the look of sorry I am late except her soon to be husband, she take a sit next to James without care .

This is just the beginning of the game Andrea, I have to act smart and see how much you can tolerate my crazy attitude she though and spare Andrea a gaze just that Thier eyes meet and they stared at each other with rang.

Andrea was very furious, his jaw tenses a flame of irritation flitting across his feature at her bold move to sit next to james.he meet her challenging stare with the frigid air between them , the audacity of her actions only makes him more furious.

She is truly undaunted, but she will not outmaneuvered me , he thinks I will not allow her to undermine my authority in front of my family.

They proceed to eat Thier food without saying anything, Hannah broke the silent and faced Ariana, hmmm.... sweetie have you thought about everything, I hope you have decided on what to do about this marriage.

Ariana stop eating and take a deep breath... Mrs han.... Grandma I don't think I am ready for this marriage, I don't want to get married now and I don't like him at all and I can't unfulfilled grandpa wishes either but I have think about it very well and I have decided to end up with James instead since he is also part of your family.

I am so sorry grandma for this decision but I can't marry him ..... I ....I just can't ....she said this as if she have foreseen she and Andrea fate that they are not meant to be.

Ohhhh....gosh I hope this work , I am sorry James for using you without your permission , this is the only way I can think of right now to make Andrea furious and leave everyone shocked, speechless and disappointed in me 🤦🤦🤦 ohhh I hope this work.

Hannah looks at her with a mixture of surprised and disappointed she didn't know what is going on anyone, she was to stunned to speak as she was not expecting this form her at all but she is not buying it either she is very sure Ariana is putting on a act just to not make this marriage work but she is hellbent in making it work .

Daniel and Sarah was shocked they stared at her with disbelief, they both wait patiently for Mrs Hannah reply....

James the unwitting centerpieces of Ariana use , was taken aback he didn't believe his hears.he quickly glance at Andrea to see his reaction but it was expressionless as if he didn't care about what she says.

What is she up too, Andrea thought with uncared expressions on his face .

Grandma i am very sorry to disappoint you this way but I truly didn't want to get married to Andrea, I just can't picture me and him together and I am very sure he feels this way too so please grandma let just all make the right decision so that everyone will be happy.

Hannah can tell that Ariana is up to something and she is not ready to accept this she want her for her grandson not someone else she has foreseen their future together and believe that they will make a great family, to her Ariana is the only person that can live up to her grandson level so she is not ready to cancel the wedding.
