Darling, only I can be your man novel Chapter 4

  Ariana Fearon got to Matthew’s Group building thirty minutes early since she had to go to HR to finalize her contract. Ariana is really excited for her new job but nervous at the same time, she had already given up on Fearon’s Group since there is no place for her there.

 

“Babe, you will do great here. You are now working for the highest paying company in Westron and I just wish for you to be comfortable.” Emily Smith is even more excited than Ariana. It is hard to tell who is going to work here. She even volunteered to bring her bestfriend to work for the first day. Emily had inherited her family’s company, so she is quite busy these days.

 

Ariana smiled and couldn’t help rolling her eyes at Emily. “Why are you so excited?”

 

“Of course I am excited to see you doing something you love. It is time to put that damn family of yours in the past.” Emily must have seen the hurt in Ariana’s eyes so she stopped, “I am sorry babe, and you know I can get carried away sometimes.”

 

“It is not your fault, I just always thought my marriage would be about love. Never thought they would rinse me off to an arranged marriage.” Ariana sighed in her heart.

 

“So, do you know who they arranged for you this time?”

 

“I have no idea because I am not interested.”

 

Emily got angry, “Don’t they have that b*tch Gina to put up for sale if they are in need of family strength?” Tears welled up in Ariana’s eyes but she was too stubborn to let her teardrops fall. Emily was so caught up in her anger so much that she didn’t even realize Ariana’s pain on this topic.

 

“Say no more. I just want to make an honest living and leave that family behind for good.” Ariana really meant what she said but Gina and Angela White kept making trouble for her.

 

Emily seemed to remember something. She looked over to Ariana and wiped her tears then smirked. “Remember you have the hottest bachelor in Westron City as your boss. Maybe you can make him fall in love with you.”

 

 

Ariana blushed and lowered her head, “you know that is impossible. We met two years ago by chance plus I doubt he even remembers me. He must have women from all around flaunting at his feet. Why would he want a nobody like me?”

 

“Babe, you might be surprised and you are not a nobody. You my love is a Queen, you are beautiful, kind hearted, sophisticated and one day will make a great wife and mother. Furthermore, Mr. Matthews hardly shows up in the media and I have never heard any relationship rumors of him and any woman in the past two years.”

 

Ariana rolled her eyes, “you liked talking nonsense, right?” “Anyway, I am here to work not to hunt for a husband.” Even though Ariana said that she hoped to meet Michael again, not on a relationship level but to see if he is okay. Well obviously he is, he had successfully taken over the Matthews’ Group from his family. These wealthy families rely on family status rather than love when it comes to marriage. Ariana suddenly felt sour in her heart ‘He is definitely out of my reach, I am not even loved by my own family. So pitiful. Why can’t I have a normal life?’

 

Emily laughed, “Okay, okay, I won’t make trouble anymore. Go on before you are late. I will pick you up later if I don’t have any meetings.” Ariana was grateful for her bestfriend, she had done so much for her in the past four years of University. The only person that truly cares about her and she can’t wait to repay her one day.

 

“Thank you Emily but there is no need, I will take the bus. I know you are quite busy.” Ariana hugged her while opening the door of the car. “You know I would have come to your company but I would have been a distraction to you. You worried about me too much.”

 

Emily pouted, “I would not be worried if I can see you every day.”

 

Ariana smiled and kissed Emily’s cheek, “okay sweetheart, I am going now.”

 

 

Ariana walked in the building and went to the receptionist desk. “Hello, how may I assist you today? Are you one of the new recruits?” the receptionist politely asked.

 

“Yes I am, my name is Ariana Fearon.” Ariana smiled and said confidently in response.
