286: THE CRAP

ARIEL’S POV

Laura stood in my way, giving me the dark face, an expression that wasn’t pleasant to me one bit. And what could I do in return? Nothing. No words spoken, and nothing uttered.

It was clear that her anger had now brought this decision upon her, her head was filled with dusk. I could only wish the best for her, to change that mindset of hers. But with the way things were going, it was quite clear that we would soon be parting ways.

And I never wanted any of that. This wasn’t my intention in the first place. She saved me, and I wanted to give her all the respect. If it wasn’t for this woman, I wouldn’t be standing right here. She helped me, bringing my soul back to life, when I thought all hope was gone.

The plan for vengeance was a decision which was agreed by the both of us. But back then, I wasn’t thinking straight. Now I kept on asking myself, what the hell was wrong with me at that moment, that I was just a fool to easily believe some goddamn lie, false words, piece of crap?

Lie was s

my fault. Day and night, I kept on filling her head with bitterness concerning Luke. Now look a the situation at the moment. Take a good look at it. Things were fucked up. Divisions were about to take place. I could sense the malice, anger, rancor, all creeping in. And I genuinely wanted none of this to happen between us. But we’d just have to see

what the future has installed for the both of us.

“Laura, I get the fact that you’re angry at me. But you’re not actually going to let this ruin this business deal, are you?”

“Nothing is going to be ruined, Ariel. I will go for that meeting.”

“Don’t you want me to help you? Like, come along? Trust me, I’m good at these things.”

“You don’t have to worry about anything. I’ll handle things all by myself.”

I couldn’t believe what she was saying now. Well, I did believe because I was something’s like this. But come on, she couldn’t just make rash decisions. I believed I could help if I was present there. Perhaps I could bring new suggestions that would make the people want to work with her, that would make them want to team with her company. This was something I was good at, all thanks to the Vitality Group for giving me great opportunities. I had full confidence in myself in this one.
