Darling, only I can be your man novel Chapter 29

  The next day they both went to the company as usual.

  At lunch Ariana called Emily, “Hey bestie.” They talked a lot over the phone but they haven’t seen each other for a long time.

  Emily has a tight schedule and usually on business trips. Ariana has been unavailable ever since her marriage. Michael hardly want to let her out of sight for a second.

  “Hey honey, are you okay? You rarely call at this time of the day.

  Ariana chuckled, “You do know me best.”

  “But of course…” Emily stopped for a while pouting as if Ariana could see her. Then she continued, “… even though Mr. Matthews have taken you away from me. I am so jealous.”

  Emily is a child by heart. Ariana find her amusing, “Don’t say that, you will always be my first love.” Ariana knew how to calm her.

  “Okay, I can accept that.” She chuckled and felt much better. “We haven’t gone out for a long time. I miss you Ariana.”

  Just what Ariana needs to hear, “Are you free tonight? Let us go out tonight.”

  “That’s my girl. I have a meeting in few minutes but I will be off early. So about 7?”

  “Yes, sounds good. I will send you the address later.” Ariana was happy, she is looking forward to seeing her bestfriend she now considered a sister.

  “Okay, I will hang up now.” The call was released and they went back to work.

  The day flew by. Ariana had invited June and Kevin to come along.

  Michael had already left for his mother. She didn’t see him before he left but he did called her.

  …

  Michael left in the afternoon so he got to Cold Spring City a little over three o’clock.

  He pulled up into his parents’ driveway and got out of the car. He had no intentions of staying too long. He would prefer being home with his wife than listening to his mother forcing him into a marriage he did not ask for.

  He stepped into the house where he was greeted by the maid. He nodded in response.

  He heard laughter coming from the living room, “You grew into a lovely woman. My son should be grateful to you as his wife.”
