Michael smiled with pride as Ariana buried her face in the crook of his neck, “Let me introduce my wife. This is Sienna Miller, the lost daughter of the Miller family. However, she grew up as Ariana Fearon. We have been married for three months but we met two years ago when she saved my life.
“She is willing to take back her birth name Sienna but with the surname Matthews of course.”
Michael was extremely happy that he could finally show his beautiful wife to the world. The woman that will beside him for the rest of his life. The woman that will be carrying his children. Most importantly, the woman he will love for the rest of his life.
The room went quiet with his introduction. Did they hear correctly?
Well, the only person in the dark at this moment was old man Miller, Grandpa Matthews and Dave Miller.
There were a mixture of emotions going on with them. They saw the resemblance of Grandma Miller as soon as she stepped in the room and Michael’s introduction confirms it all.
They have waited twenty-three years to finally meet her again. She had really grown into a beautiful young lady.
Grandpa Matthew’s raised his brow at his grandson with great joy, “You bastard, you hid her for so long. You knew the true identity of your wife all along and you knew your uncle couldn’t use the contract against you but you played along.”
James face went sour at his father’s comment. He wished he could tear them all apart.
Dave was crying his heart out. He just want to hold his daughter in his arms, he will deal with James later. He approach his long lost daughter with reluctant steps not wanting to frighten her, “Sienna?”
Michael whispered in her ear when he felt her tears on his neck, “Baby, everything will be alright. Go and meet your birth family.”
She obeyed and ran into her father’s arm as they both cried. She thought since she didn’t grew with them, there will be no affection or maybe it was the pregnancy but she felt a deep rush of sadness and longing for missing her parental guidance throughout her life.
She wished her mom was also here. Ariana missed her mother more than anything in this world.
Everybody was so engrossed with the reunion of Sienna Miller that they forgot about James interrogation.
James was trying to sneak away as Malcolm grabbed him almost giving him a heart attack, “You are going nowhere other than prison.”
“Let me go. Is this how you treat your elders?” He scolded him. “You’re just a follower of Michael.”
“Respect goes where it comes from.” Malcolm responded coldly. He never liked this man since he was a child. When Michael moved the company to Westron City, he followed leaving his family company behind to be a Detective but at times he would go to other neighboring cities or country to work. He wanted to do something to help his beloved to find her sister.
Ariana was in plain sight all this time and yet no one found her, not knowing which city or country she resides made it harder too. Probably if she was grown as an adopted daughter, an orphan or even frequent on social media platforms she would have been easier to find.
James was still curious about how Ariana was here when it was clearly she got kidnapped not too long ago. What the hell is going on?
Alex came in shortly with two other officers. They issued an arrest to James for the kidnapping twenty-three years ago and earlier today, the attacking two years ago along with several other obstructions and fraud.
They played the recording of what went down at the warehouse and how the men testified against him.
They carried him away despite his protesting and threats.
