"Thank you so much. I'm so glad that you didn't decline my offer. Martin will show you how to work and stuff so don't worry. We will start from tomorrow." Manil looked at Ariana.

"Oh, No!... I mean when I need help I would ask. I think I will not need Martin, um I mean I don't wanna annoy him." Ariana gasped.

Manil looked to his son who hadn't talked giving him a look to say something.

"It will be such an honor to me to work with you Miss Rea. No disturbance at all. I will always be available for you in any time." Martin smirked.

Ariana forced herself to smile.

After two hours, Martin and Mr Manil excused themselves and left. Their way to home wasn't far, their house was directly next to their house. They were so close neighbors.

Ariana ran to her room. She wasn't able to hear anything or to talk with her family about Manil's new offer.

Dammit! Really Damn! How did I do that? How will I work with him? I won't bear standing with him in same places. How could that happen?! How!
Ariana thought.

She looked at herself in the mirror...

He's so selfish, arrogant and jerk. I hate him for everything he made to me.
Ariana thought.

She remembered two years ago....

Girls were so stick to Martin, they were trying to win him..

"These ugly girls are so creepy. I don't know how you bear them."

"Ariana, Are you jealous?" Martin teased her.

"Jealous? From those? Are you sick? Of course not." She lied.

"But you are." He touched her cheek.

"Martin, I said am not." Ariana said moving his hand away.

"Ariana, I see it in your eyes. Admit it."

"Okay, I am, yes I am jealous and I hate it when girls are around you, Martin. Are you okay now?"

"Very okay. But you should never care about this cause you have something they will never gonna have."

"Something? What is it?" Ariana glared.

"My heart." He grabbed her hand and put it on his heart.

"Oh Martin."

"Do you feel them?"

"Feel what?"

"My heart beats. They are beating for you."

She cried when she remembered that situation..

Liar, Liar. Yes he was a liar. He stole me heart. He broke me. I was living just to love him. I was waking every morning to see him. He really has broken me into pieces. I hate him.
Ariana thought.

Her mobile phone rang, it was Vena her best friend.

"Vena, how are you?"

"I'm fine. How about you? Your voice is changed. What happened?"

"I really need you. Are you free tomorrow?"

"I am. Okay we will meet at Hilton hotel at 7 p.m. You know my dad is having work there and he will take me with him."

"Well. I'll wait for you there."

"Okay babe, Bye."

"Bye Bye."

Martin was so busy with his work although he wasn't concentrating. He wasn't in the mood at all.

"We will have to change the money. This man is very important. We don't wanna lose him." His cousin Marfel said.

"Martin.. Martin??" His cousin called out his name when he didn't reply.

"Oh what?" Martin recovered.

"You are not in the mood today at all."

"Yeah that's true, Do what you see man. I'm fine with what you will do. I really need to relax now."

"I see that also. Don't worry. I will do my best, cousin."

"I know." Martin nodded taking his jacket and leaving his office.

"Sir, please can you sign here?" His secretary said.

"Okay. Here is it." Martin signed quickly.

"And here."

"All that? No, leave it to tomorrow. I wanna relax now."

"As you like, sir."

Martin received a call, it was from a very important customer.

About the damn time, I am not ready for any business calls.
Martin thought.

But he answered her call..

"Hi. Everything is fine. Don't worry I made everything you hoped to ever be." Martin said.

"Oh thank you so much. You are always a gentle man, Martin. I don't know how to give back this favor. It's priceless."

"No need for all that. You are very special."

"If I am really special so please accept my invitation to have dinner together tomorrow."

"But..."

"I know you are so busy but you said am special. I'm waiting for you."

He took a breath. "Okay"

"I will send you the time and the address in text. This will be my day."

"Of course sure." He shut off his phone.

I don't have time for you Sophia. I hope you will understand that you are only a customer to me. Hopeless case..
Martin thought.

Martin took a shower and he slept. He was so tired that he slept very quickly.
