-Aaron’s bPOV/bbi: /i/b

As the apuses continued, Aaron made his way back over to the Crests and Lockwoods. He could see the joy and smugness in their faces, and he bcouldn’t /bwait to tear it off. As Aaron grew closer, Davis made his way over. With a huge smile, he extended his hand to Aaron. There was a slight pause before Aaron shook his hand causing Davis to feel slightly nervous, brushing it off, he continued to speak.

“So, Chairman, my–son–inw tells me that my daughter also included Crest iReal /iEstate in ithe /iproposal ifor /iithe /iiproperty /idevelopments. iI’d /ilike to get started bas /bsoon as possible.”

Aaron cut his eyes over to Davis, the nerve of him trying to use his fiancé and speak as if was a loving father. Smiling, Aaron held his hand up

“Why don’t we save this conversation forter.”

There was something about the way he saidter that made Davis feel uneasy. Darius and Daniel felt the shift too. Something was definitely wrong. Thomas, still reeling from the merger, didn’t sense the shift at all. Walking over to Aaron, he had a puzzled look on his face.

i“/iiChairman /iiMichaels/i, I imeant /ito iask /iiyou/ii, /iisince /iiI /iinever /igot the chance ito /imeet iyour /iifiancé/ii, /iiwhat /iichanged /iiyour /ibimind/i/bbi?/i/bbi” /i/b

Aaron tilted his head to the side with a slightly puzzled smile on his face.

“I’m not isure /iiwhat /iiyou /iimean /iiLockwood/ii./ii” /i

Puzzled.

“Um, iyour /iifiancé/i. iOn /iiMonday /iiyou /iisaid /iiyour /iifiancé /iiwould /ihave to meet me in order to decidebi?” /i/b

Aaron let out a light chuckle. Now the stage was finally set.

i“/iiActually/i, Lockwood iI /iisaid /iishe /iiwould /ineed ito /imeet ithe /iiCEO/ii, /iiand /iishe /iialready /iihas/ii./ii” /i

Thomas had a confused look on his face. What did he mean by ‘she already has‘, to his knowledge, he had never met his fiancé.

i“/iiHave /iI met her beforei? /iiI’m /iiafraid /iI don’t iremember/ii./ii” /i

“iOh/ii, /iiI /iinever /isaid iYOU /imet iher/i.i” /i

A bad feeling was seeping into Thomas’s chest. Why was the chairman speaking so cryptically and if it wasn’t him he referring too then who was he speaking about? Surely he knew that Thomas was the future CEO of Lockwood Corp.

i“/iiChairman /iiMichaels/ii, /iI’m iafraid /iI’m iconfused/i.”

Aaron had a sardonic smile on his face. Now was the time to finish this.

“iOh/i, iwhere /iiare /iimy /iimanners/i. iThomas/ii, /iilet /ime iintroduce /iiyou /ito imy /iifiancé/i.bi” /i/b

Everyone looked forward. Suddenly, a beautiful woman in a royal blue gown made her to the center. Everyone in the ballroom gasp as she made her way. Whispers of how beautiful she was filled the room, while others questioned who she was. Thomas and the Crests however, their faces however looked bas /bif all the blood had been drained for they had recognized the woman all too well.

Aaron Michales‘ fiancé bwas /bnone other than Rabena.

bi-Rabena’s /i/bbPOV/bb: /b

Amber was the first to speak as Rabena ced her hand into Aaron’s while hended ba /bsoft kiss on her cheek. With fire seething through her words, Amber walked up to Rabena.

“Rabenai! /iWhat the hell iare /idoing ihere/ii! /iiWhat’s /igoing oni! /iiTake /iyour hand out iof /ithe chairman’s hand this instant.

Rabena had a smirk on her face, she’d been waiting for this moment all evening.

“Why would I do that Mrs. Crest, he is after all my fiance.”

Amber could feel a lump in her throat, her eyes burning with rage. How could something like this happen! Darius and Daniel stood in shock is Danielle looked as if she wanted to kill Rabena. Turning on her fake innocent charm, she walked up and grabbed Rabena’s hand,

“My darling sister, did you iget /iChairman Michales to iy /ialong with you to make Thomas Jealous? Please sisteri, /iiI /iknow I’ve caused you pain because your ijealous /iof me, but I beg you not to involve iothers/i. Punish me if you imust /ibut leave the chairman out of iit/ii./ii” /i

Rabena had seen this act so many times, the fake concern, the fake tears it was regr ybook for Danielle. Rabena snatched her hand out hers giving her a look of deadly daggers.

“What the hell would I ibe /ijealous of you fori? /iIt’s ifunny /iiyou /ishould mention imy /ihusband, I certainly hope you don’t mean Thomas. Afterall, you’re the one who’s been sleeping with him.”

Gasps started irrupting all over the ballroom. The guests couldn’t believe what they had just heard. Did she just use Danielle Crest of sleeping with her husband? There was so much confusion. Danielle looked as if all the color drained from her face. Still putting on act, she began to cry.

“iRaby/ii! /iWhy iwould /iyou isay /iithat/ii! /iYou iknow /iiTommy /ihas ialways /ibeen inothing /ibut a ibrother /ito me! Isn’t ithat /iright? Tell her Tommy!i” /i

Thomas finally came back to reality, he’dpletely zoned out at the sight of Rabena, hearing Danielle pleas, he began to speak.

i“/iiRabena/ii, /iiwhat /iiis /iithis/ii? /iiWhy /iiare /iiyou /iihere /iand icalling /iiChairman /iiMichaels /iiyour /iifiancé/ii?/ii” /i

Rabena looked over at Thomas with a mocking expression andughed.

i“/iiI /iiguess /iiyou /iiare /iiconfused/ii, /iiwhat /iiwere /iiyou /iiall /iitelling /iipeople/i, I’m isick/ii? /iiHm/i, am I isick /iihoney/ii? /i

Rabena looked over at Aaron who was now smiling, hearing her call him honey affected him in dark ways.

“iYou /iseem ifine /iiand /iilook /iieven /iibetter/ii. /iiPerhaps /iithey /iiweren’t /iireferring /iito /iiyou /iiafter /iiall/ii, /ihe isaid /iihis /iifiancé’s /iiname /iis iRabena /iiCrest/i.”

The Crests all looked confused, why had Michaels emphasized her name that way. It was as if he were insinuating her name to be different. Davis finally decided to speak.

Chairman

i“/iiRabena/ii, /iiwhat /iido /iiyou /iithink /iiyou’re /iidoing/ii! /iiWhy /iiare /iiyou /iiembarrassing /ius like ithis/ii! /iiApologize /iito /iiyour /iisister /iinow/ii! /iiAnd /iiapologize /ito iChairman /iiMichaels /ifor dragging ihim /iiinto /iithis /iimess/i!b” /b

Before Rabena could say anything, her Uncle Pete and Aunt Gloria stormed over along with Damon, Sean, and Catherine. Pete spoke first.

“Mr. iCrest/i, iyou /iiwanna /iiexin /ito ime /iiwhy /iiyou’re /iiyelling /iat my idaughter/ii?/ii” /i

Davis looked over at Pete inplete shock, his daughter, what the hell was going on? Amber stepped in to speak. fn30e1 For original chapters go to Find1Novel/fn30e1

“Who iexactly /iiare /iiyou /iand iwhy are /iiyou /iicalling /imy idaughter /iYOUR idaughter/ii./ii” /i

Gloria walked up to Amber; she had been wanting to give her a piece of her mind ever since bthey /ball learned bthe /btruth about how Rabena had been treated. Lifting her right hand, she flung it as hard as she could.

iSLAP/ii! /i

The pnded directly on Amber’s right cheek stinging like hot fire to her face. She instantly fell back; Davis immediately grabbing her. Daniel and Darius

rushed over bas /bwell.

“iWhat /ithe hell ido /iiyou /ithink iyou’re /iidoing/ii! /iiKabena /iwho iare /ithese ipeople/ii!/ii” /i

Daniel barked at Rabena as the crowd gasps in shock. Rabena stood smiling, a proud look on her face. Before she could answer, Aaron walked in between Pete and Gloria, the three of them shielding her.

“Mr. and Mrs, Crest, allow me to introduce you to my future inws. This Pete and Gloria Price of Prd Techware, they’re n Raben’t nunt and sche

The Crests all looked in shock, what was going on! As Amber stood to her feet, still holding her cheek, she had fire in her eyesb, /bthe formalities now gone.

“Chairman Michaels I’m not sure what type of game you’re ying at, but ithey /iare not rted to Rabena Crest!”

“You’re right, they’re rted to Rabena Price.”
