Darling, only I can be your man

chapter 26

Michael felt nervous the entire day but he knew Ariana was not a difficult person so she will

understand his explanation.

In the evening he made a phone call to verify if she was ready to go home. Ariana would wait on

him in the evenings and when he is working late he would have the driver bring her home alone if she

did not anything else to do.

He lived in a secluded area and taxi cabs are not allowed in so she would have to walk up hill for a

long time before she can get to the house. Therefore, he always tried to prepare transportation for her.

He might have to buy her a car soon but she doesn’t want to drive so he could only get a driver for her.

“Hello.” Ariana did not answer the phone with any grievance. She answered with the same tone

she normally has. Michael felt relieved at first and then later felt an explicit pain in his heart. If her

attitude is like this, then it means that she doesn’t care if he was with another woman.

But that can’t be right, thinking back to this afternoon she was really angry and jealous. Her

emotions were obvious so why did she get so normal just after few hours. Well there is nothing All content is © N0velDrama.Org.

between him and Samantha so it shouldn’t be so hard to resolved, he thought.

Little did he knew that this was just the beginning.

Ariana was still a little upset about what happened today but she is trying not to make a fuss about

it. She knew it was just a contract and she didn’t expect him to be faithful to her. How can she ask the

richest man of Westron City to love her wholeheartedly?

It is just a pity that over the past three weeks she had bound herself to him thinking their

relationship might work. She even forgot about the main purpose, her mother. She hardly remember

how her mother looks anymore and her father had destroyed all her photos.

Ariana pushed her emotions to the back of her mind and answered with a smile. Michael came

from the other line, “Honey, are you done with your work?”

She felt bitter in her heart to hear his gentle voice. Just a few hours ago he was calling another

woman by her nickname, “In the next five minutes I will be through. You can wait for me in the parking

lot. I will be there soon.”

“Okay, I am my way there.” Michael walked out of his office and heading to the elevator to go to

the underground parking lot.

They said few more words and hung up. As soon as Michael got off the phone he turned to Alex, “I

haven’t dealt with you as yet.”

Alex tremble because he knew it won’t be anything good. “I did not expect her to suddenly open

the door.”

“It seems like you are not competent anymore for this position. You can’t even handle a little

woman.” Michael couldn’t help but vent his dissatisfaction on Alex. He knew Alex was innocent but he

couldn’t help it.

“With all due respect sir, I tried stopping her. I did not expect that Miss Miller would be seated in

y…” Alex did not get to complete his sentence. He was rudely interrupted by Michael, “Shut up and I

don’t want to hear you mentioned it anymore. Now I have a little woman to coax and a very stubborn

one at it too.” When did he get so bold talking back to him?

Alex lowered his head and said nothing more. He felt really wronged and it was The President that

made a mistake. Why was he the one to be blamed? He knew that his wife is in the company but he

still allowed Miss Miller to occupy his lap. Miss Fearon had all right to be mad at him. Alex could only

curse Michael through his thoughts.

Michael got off the elevator and walked to the car. Alex opened the door for him and he got in. He

sat there waiting on Ariana, soon his phone rang.

His mood sank when he noticed the caller ID, he knew it would be nothing good. He embraced

himself and answer.

“Hello mother.” Michael answered the phone lazily.

“Don’t you remember to be filial to your parents?” his mother shouted angrily over the phone.

Michael felt a headache coming on and he rubbed the crease between his eyebrows, “Mother,

what can I do for you?”

“You haven’t visited your father and I in a long while so can you come over for dinner tomorrow?”

she became very gentle because she did not want him to reject her.

“Why do I need to drive to such a far place just for a meal?” Michael believed his mother did not

just want him to come home for a dinner but he haven’t seen his parents for a long time and they hardly

come to this city unless it is urgent. They lived in a neighboring city, Cold Spring City but it was just a

four hour driving back and forth from where he resides in Westron City.

“Okay, I will leave work early and drop by tomorrow.” Michael give in so his mother Lovett

Matthews did not want to stay too long to talk to him fearing he might change his mind.

Shortly after he came off the call Ariana came down. She came in and he pulled her to his side as

he normally do. He noticed her body was a little stiff today so he asked, “Are you still mad at me?”

“No, why would you ask that? I was not mad to begin with.” Ariana pressed her lips in a line and

pretended to look away.

Alex drove off but before he does, he pulled up the car partition so they could get some privacy.

They do have what happen today to talk about. He likes Ariana so he hope she will understand the

President and forgive him.

Michael tried studied her emotions, “Are you really not angry with me?”

Ariana was slightly irritated, “Do you want me to be?” Michael was stupefied by her question but he

quickly collected himself, “Since you are not angry, come and give me a kiss.”

Ariana looked at the man in daze, can someone be more shameless than him. She pouts her lip, “I

don’t want to.”

Michael smirked at her rebellious actions. “It doesn’t matter if you want to or not.” After saying that,

he held her closer to him and bend his neck to capture his pouting lips. Her lips were so sweet they

could be in comparison to honey.

Ariana knew she couldn’t win against him so she acquiesced to whatever he wanted. They did

signed a contract and she had to fulfill her duty as his wife.

She was still waiting on him to explain his relationship with the young miss from earlier and she

had no intention to be the one to bring it up.
