But what does he mean by he'd let us know if the wedding Is happening or not? He could have simply said the introduction date is postponed. Wait, are they calling off the whole thing?" Mary eyes dilated upon realization
"Nothing is for sure yet, stop scaring Arry" Mr Maxwell said
"Dad is right, mom you're overreacting right now and it's annoying" Arry said angrily
"My apologies dear, I think I've become too sensitive these days. Alright, let's return home for now" Mary said
"No, since we're here anyways, we might as well eat lunch as a family " Mr Maxwell said and the duo grinned
"That doesn't sound bad" Mary said and pulled out a chair to sit down but Arry took the seat
"Take the other chair mom" Arry said and picked up the menu "alright, what's good for a sunny afternoon?" She said ignoring her mother's glare and Mary finally sat on the next chair
"You rude punk!" Mary gritted her teeth angrily

"Mr. Aston I think you should see this" Dan said and handed over the Tablet to Aston
Today's news: Apparently, fourteen people developed serious skin reactions from the popularly known BB cosmetics and it is causing quiet a ruckus among customers
Some mini marts and large supermarkets like Grace & Grace are requesting for refund of hundred million worth of cosmetics that was purshased from BB cosmetics.
The most concerning part is that this particular body lotion started selling out upon the advertisement of the infamous advertisement company's advert. Nicholas Adverts. And co.
The public urge them to take responsibility.
Nicholas mulled over the news update and frowned
"I personally took in this proposal and tested the product myself so how can it be faulty?" Aston thought aloud confusedly
"I'm also confused, chairman Nicholas would be very angry at you" Dan said worriedly
"That's not important right now, right! Upload the lab test result immediately, that should be enough evidence to back us up" Aston said and Dan obliged immediately
"Done sir" Dan said and Aston breathed in heavily
"Get me something chilled please" Aston said and rested back on the sofa with a sigh
Some minutes later
"Mr Aston, a victim's comment is diverting everyone's attention, take a look" Dan said grimly and handed over the tablet
@user132/Brain-box: you expect us to believe this fabricated lab result? Business men like you surely know how to corner yourself out of trouble. You should apologize and find a solution or rather a compensation instead of arrogantly posting papers you call test result, I can't even go out of my house for days now, my body is sore all over, don't you have any conscience?
Aston read within and hissed angrily
"Who is this fellow?" He spatted angrily
"Wait, the person is kind of familiar" Dan said and clicked on the user's profile
"Oh, isn't this miss Diana?! But, why would she...." Dan trailed in surprise and Aston bursted into a a soft chuckled
"Fierce, I like it. She's cute" he thought aloud with a grin and Dan stared at him weirdly
"Shouldn't you be mad? She went too far" Dan said angrily
"Well, I wouldn't say she did anything bad, she's simply going for what she wants using any means possible. I like her" Bianca's voice echoed from behind and she smiled brightly
"No wonder big bro grew fond of her. What are you going to do now? It doesn't seems like she's going to relent" bianca asked with a grin and Aston respired heavily
"Put a call through to her" He said
"Uhh, the chairman is calling" Dan said and picked up immediately
"Are you sitting around doing nothing while some bug out there is out to destroy the company?!"-- chairman Nicholas yelled angrily
"I'm on it grandfather"-- Aston replied
"You better do! The B.I Award is right around the corner, I wouldn't want something so silly ruining it"--
"I know, I'd sort it out immediately!"-- Aston said and hung up
"That darn teaser!" Aston gritted his teeth angrily "call her immediately!"
"Okay sir" Dan said and dialed Diana's number
"Hi, Mr Nicholas. Do you have the luxury to call me right now? Don't you have urgent things to take care of instead?"-- Diana asked with a knowing grin and Aston smirked
"Of course, I do. That's the only reason we're having thus conversation right now Ms. Diana, that was a cool stunt you pulled. I got an earful from my grandfather after managing to avoid it for months, thanks to you "--
"Oh, an I supposed to apologize for that?"--
"Of course not! I wouldn't apologize either if I were you. Thus must be fun to you seeing how you keep giggling at the other end of the line"--
"Of course it is, don't you think?"--
"Hmm. You think I'd agree to marry you because of this?" Aston scoffed "I can easily charge you for defamation you know "---
"Go ahead and try, all I did was comment as a victim who suffered from an advertised product by your company. I don't even own a newspaper company so how would I post anything to defame anybody?"
"Since you didn't call for solution, I'd hang up now, I hope you find a way out of this before the annual B.I Award Nicholas Aston, bye then" Diana said and hung up on Aston
"Wow, she's unbelievable!" Dan said angrily and Aston scoffed
"Isn't she?" Aston mumbled
"Oh, she's so sweet, I want to meet her already. When are you setting us up big bro, you promised to allow me see her if I dig up on her late mother" Bianca said
"This is not the right time bianca " Aston snapped at her and closed his eyes to think
"Dan, what do you think? The B.I award is in a week" Nicholas asked and Dan shrugged indifferently
"I think you should take on ms. Diana offer so she can help, she caused this mess so definitely must know how to settle it" Dan said
"What are you still waiting for them?" Nicholas opened his eyes and glared at dan
"Huh?"
"Call her back!" Aston said
"Oh...okay sir" Dan stuttered and dialed Diana line
"Put it on speaker" Aston said and Dan obliged
"Hello Mr Nicholas" Diana started the phone conversation teasingly
"So, what do you plan to do?" Aston asked
"Well.....my dear Aston, you're too late. I'm hanging up" Diana said with a grin and ended the call
"What, is she playing around with me now?" Aston thought aloud angrily and bianca bursted into laughter
"I must say, this miss Diana is sooo amazing, I wonder what she's planning to do next....." bianca trailed and Aston frowned
"What do you mean what she wants to do next?" Aston asked curiously
"Isn't it obvious? She's still hell bent on getting married to you but she doesn't need your permission to do that anymore, she must've planned some other way, I'm sure she's definitely up to something interesting...." Bianca squinted her eyes and suddenly grinned
"I wonder what she's up to" bianca thought aloud while aston's frown deepened
