Darling, only I can be your man novel Chapter 48

　　When Ariana got into office it was midday already.

　　She went to her department on the 9th floor where she proceeded with work. She plans on working through lunch since she had taken the morning off.

　　However, she could hardly focused on work. Even though she seemed strong before her father an hour ago but he actually got to her.

　　She felt heartbroken. He could even rub her mother in the mud just to protect Gina, but what about her. Doesn’t she have feelings too?

　　Gina had always gotten what she wanted. Her father’s excuse was that he is making up for the three years she spent outside with her mother.

　　In half hour, Ariana started dozing off. All the emotions and thoughts running through her head made her tired.

　　“Ariana, Ariana!” June had been calling her for the last five minutes and she wouldn’t budge. She even tried shaking her.

　　June decided to do one last thing. If this didn’t work, she don’t know what will.

　　She went next to her ear and shouted, “Mr. Matthews!”

　　Ariana jumped up looking around. It was then that she noticed that the department was empty but it did not seem as if it was evening. Employees’ desk still had some of their possessions. It must be lunch break.

　　June started laughing so hard, she had tears in her eyes, “You should have seen your face just now.” she said in between laughs.

　　“What the hell June?” Ariana glared at her friend.

　　“How long have I been sleeping?” she asked curiously.

　　“About an hour. I already had lunch but lunch break is not up as yet.” She said while checking the time.

　　Ariana frowned wondering how she could fall asleep at work. This is not like her at all but she has been sleeping a lot lately.

　　She slumped back in her chair and asked in a whisper, “Why didn’t you wake me before you went for lunch?” What would the manager think of her? He is a nice and lenient man but this is against company policy. People will think she is purposely doing it because of Michael.

　　“I tried but you never woke. I decided to leave you, you must be tired if you slept off. I just hope you won’t get into trouble.” June exclaimed then she teased, “Although, if anyone could get away with this, it is you.”

　　Ariana groaned.

　　“You haven’t eat anything. Why don’t you hurry to the canteen for a quick snack?” June urged her. “You haven’t been eating much for several days now.”

　　June was worried about her.

　　“No, I am good. I will eat later.” She looked her computer and frowned, “I am currently swamp with work and some of them have a deadline for today.” June nodded knowing she couldn’t change her mind.

　　Soon the department was getting noisy as the employees started strolling inside in pairs.

　　June went back to her station to continue her work.
