The Love From Vengeance

35 STAY

ARIEL’S POV

2/5

I arrived home, and right in the living room, these four were gathered: Andre, Mason, Seth, and Michael. They were all sitting down. I slowly closed the door and walked in their direction in the same manner. I could discern Mason’s gaze towards me; it wasn’t a nice one, so I took my eyes off him and fixed them on a better person.

“You all came home early,” I said, advancing towards them. I sat close to Andre, trying my very best to ignore Mason’s gaze. “So what’s the discussion about?”

“We had an issue at our company in Canada, so we’ll need to go there to resolve it,” Andre answered.

“Okay, hold on, so we’re going back to Canada?” I needed to be clear about this whole discussion.

“Yes, but Mason here insists that we stay a little longer. He says he has some things to take care of in New Haven, but I have no idea what they are, and he keeps on refusing to tell me.”

“Come on now, brother, why are you still stressing yourself over this? I’ve already told you. You can go to Canada with all these two, but Ariel and I will stay to run the business around here.”

Andre looked at me instantly. “You agree with that, Ariel?”

“Of course she’s going to agree,” Mason chimed in. “Remember, we have an ongoing project with The Reynold Company. Someone will have to be in charge around here to see how that goes.”

“I agree,” Seth brought out and turned to Andre. “Look, sir, the project with Luke Reynold’s company is really important, and indeed, someone will need to represent us. The Vitality Group at New Haven is gradually developing, so someone needs to handle it. I believe Ariel will be able to do that flawlessly.”

Andre nodded. “That is true. But I need to hear from Ariel first. Let’s see what she has to say- if she’s going to follow us to Canada or stay here in New Haven.”

I breathed out deeply. “Well, I’d really love to go back to Canada; my babies must be missing
