CALL ME PRESIDENT VIER...

Yago sighed as he looked at the confused Michael behind him. He couldn't blame the little guy though. He also wished Yago could return, but this time, only Vier can stay. Today he's returning in Dan city as Vier dela Vega, his brother. Yago could only be hidden for the time being.

"Let's go, Mike." Yago said as he held his nape. Meeting Arianna out of the blue like this while he's returning to the country was just startling. He was both excited and nervous. Although she shot daggers at him by the way she throw him a look, he still felt happy just to be able to see her again.

"Sir Yago, where are we heading now?" the lean looking assistant asked him. From the moment this boss of his first called him to pick him up at the airport, to the time he asked him to bump into Miss Reid's assistant, up until this moment, he still doesn't understand everything that's happening. Isn't his boss already dead? Or so he have heard. And what's with the hostility between him and Miss Reid? Have they fallen out?

Yago smiled. "Call me President Vier dela Vega." he said before turning his back and walking ahead.

Michael furrowed his brows. He wasn't Yago Evans? Then what is he doing here bossing him around?

Yago turned to look at his assistant who's head was currently up in the clouds. "What are you daydreaming there for?"

"But Sir Yago..."

"Yago is my brother. From now on, that's what you're going to tell people. If anyone ask about Yago, then tell them his whereabouts.... is currently unknown."

"Cousin, why were you bickering with brother Yago just now?"Arianna heard Candice ask her when the car took off. She was sitting beside her and was watching her with curious eyes since they left the airport. "If I may say... that was a first! You've always adored that brother of yours." she added.

"He's Yago's twin brother." she answered. Not many people knew what happened to Yago. Only those who are close to him. She's not in the mood either to explain.

"You have two brothers? And they're twins?" Candice inquired with wide innocent eyes, blinking as she anticipated her cousin's answer.

Arianna held her forehead, clearly annoyed. How could she make this cousin to shut her mouth?

"It really is a great wonder that all the companies under you haven't gotten bankrupt yet, you silly woman. Yago isn't my brother. He's Vier dela Vega's brother." she answered with a scowl. Candice didn't back off though. She laughed and then continued teasing her.

"If Yago isn't you're brother, then who is he to you? Your husband?"

Arianna sighed in resignation.

"Sure. He's my husband. Happy now?" she looked away in exasperation. She really wasn't in a good mood. The jerk Vier just ruined her day. When she turned to look at the silenced Candice again, she found her zoned out. Was she startled by the news? Everyone in the Evans family really thought of Yago as her mother's illegitimate son. It's normal that her cousin would be surprise to hear the truth.

When Arianna closed her eyes for a bit to rest for a while, she suddenly felt someone grabbing her hand. She was startled and instantly turned to her side catching the scene of her cousin taking off her white gold ring. Before she could even react, she had already moved away inspecting the ring thoroughly. Her eyes were narrowed when she turned to return the ring.

"It's true... he really is..." Candice said as she stared into Arianna's eyes.

Arianna didn't know how to correct that sentence. She was just being sarcastic before. But now that Candice saw what was written on the inside of her ring, she must have taken what she said as the truth now... what a really silly woman...

"No wonder you weren't wearing the one Jayden gave you. Did brother Yago proposed to you? Have you already broken up with Jayden?"she asked, hungry for gossip.

Arianna didn't answer. She already lost all her patience for today and she have got nothing more left for Candice. She just leaned on the side and closed her eyes pretending to be sleepy. Forget about this silly cousin. She just needs to regain her calm now before she heads back to the company.

While she tried to rest her mind, Arianna suddenly heard her phone was ringing. Her calm once again vanished when she saw the caller ID. Really, when it rains, it pours. She has only set foot on the country a couple of hours ago but annoying things kept bugging her. Can't she have some peace right now?

"Hello," Arianna coldly greeted after pressing the answer icon on her phone screen. A man's voice immediately answered from the other end of the line.

"Arianna, how are you now? You finally took my call. I've been calling you for almost two weeks now. Why were you not answering my call? I've been worried about you." she heard Jayden complain.

In her mind, Arianna had the same question too. Why did she answer his call? Why now? She really regretted it instantly. She had the urge to lash out on the jerk, but she had to keep it all in. Really troublesome.

"I was very busy. In fact, I'm still busy now. If you only called just to scold me then I'm hanging up. My schedule is packed and I can't chat with you right now." After saying her piece, she ended the call without giving Jayden a chance to speak. She then again closed her eyes trying to meditate. It's just so hard to calm down when you're surrounded by wolves.

Inside Jayden's office, he stared at his phone as the call ended abruptly. It seemed like Arianna was really busy with work. She always gets edgy when she was working too much. That's the reason why she rarely go to the office before and managed everything from home. But ever since Yago disappeared, Arianna decided to focus on work more, making her cranky all the time.

"What's the matter, Jayden..."

from behind, a woman called his name while she hugged him from the back.. "Having a bad mood?"

Jayden took a deep breathe. He agreed on taking Belle as his secretary. Anyway, Arianna wouldn't know, right? She never visits him at work anyway.

Belle's arms that was wrapped around Jayden's waist suddenly moved. Her right hand went up, caressing his chest, while the left one moved downward, squeezing something between his legs.

"I know of a way to relieve your stress." she whispered seductively. "Do you wanna try?"
