CHAPTER 14

As days go by, Arianna was very busy with the company. The twins were ahead of their peers in the school for the gifted children so the teachers were discussing their promotion to another grade level. The twins though we're only in the age of six almost seven, they already surpassed primary level and on their way to middle grade level. All over, things were going on the right track.

Kevin Gu, on the other hand, wanted to deal with a business collaboration with the Lu's but every time he came to the company, he wasn't given a chance to meet with the CEO.

"That stubborn woman!!! Who is she to refuse me. She's my wife. Is she can't find time with her husband, I'll find ways with the children." Kevin Gu thought a lot and after that he went to the Lu's ancestral villa.

Upon arriving, he noticed that the twins were playing at the side part of the villa were a beautiful playground stood.

"Hey, kids!!" The twins looked at him then continued playing. "These boys are like their mother." Kevin thought.

The old master approached from the side. "Hello, Kevin!"

"Elder master Lu!" He bowed to the elder and greeted him respectfully. "I just wanted to talk to Arianna but she always refuses me."

"You have nothing to talked about. How's the divorce going?" Kevin's face turned pale upon hearing about the divorce. "Elder master, I haven't filed it yet because I was busy with the business."

"You are busy with works and then you have time to visit us. What do you think of me?" The old man said.

"I.. I.." Kevin stuttered. "I don't want to divorce Arianna."

"Why? Because she is now doing great at the company that you want to collaborate. Before, you shattered her heart by having an affair with that treacherous woman who grew up with us." The old master replied with anger in his voice.

"Arianna has nothing to do with you now. So you better stop disrupting her. Butler Yue, show young master Gu to the gate." Elder master Lu left Kevin to fetch the boys to have their snack and nap.

Furious Kevin left the villa. He went directly to Rosie Lin's condo unit. She was surprised for the visit as she didn't expect him at the time. "Honey!" she said but Kevin just walked inside with a scowl on his face. "The Lu family is making the collaboration difficult. My father will be furious if I don't get it. My position is at stake."

"Then just let her go, honey! You should have divorced her when she asked you." she said.

"But the merger..."

"Hmmmn!!! I know what to do. But for the meantime, make my sorrow go away." After Kevin said that, he kissed her lips and carried her to the bedroom and stay the night.

The next day, Arianna was invited to a gathering of all the business mogul in the capital. She went alone with her female bodyguard, Zena. Just like her name, Zena was a retired military personnel that her grandfather picked for her. Both of them were tall and beautiful but Arianna stood out.

Rosie Lin together with Kevin Gu were already seated when she saw Arianna approaching. She stood up and "Well! Well! Well! The princess of the Lu clan graced us with her presence."

Arianna didn't even look at her and just continued walking to her designated seat. She was greeted by an old man of the Want Group of Companies. "Hello, Miss Lu!"

"Mr. Chairman, how have you been?" And they talked about the business and the economy in China.

While at the other table, Rosie was furious being ignored. So when she saw Arianna went to the ladies' room, she followed. "Why are you ignoring me? I am your friend."

"A friend who seduced her friend's husband is not a friend but a whore. You think being with Kevin will change your root. You're still the daughter of my clan's chauffeur."

"You..." As Rosie raised her hand to slap Arianna, the latter was fast enough to capture her wrist and murmur in her ear "You don't have the capability to harm me. I won't stooped down to your level so I advice you to retreat now while I am being merciful. GOT IT!!!"

As Rosie saw the cold eyes and the aura emanating from Arianna, she felt scared that if there's a hole, she would try crawl and hide. She looked scary.

Then Arianna pushed her wrist down and she stumbled and fell by the force. Arianna left the ladies' room and said her goodbyes to the host and some of the businessmen saying she had important matters to attend to.
