Hi..
.
.
Matt and Lucius took Sierra to her villa in order to meet her brother, Enzo Monero.
.
They reached the Monero mansion.
.

Inside the mansion
Sierra Morales (FL's senior)
(came running inside the mansion) Brother, Brother, look who is here..๐๐
Enzo Morales (ML's BFF/ Sierra's bro)
(walking downstairs) โ๏ธโ๏ธ Why are you shouting, Savy ?
Enzo Morales (ML's BFF/ Sierra's bro)
(surprised to see Lucius and Matt)
Enzo Morales (ML's BFF/ Sierra's bro)
(Went and hugged them both happily)
Massimiliano Langley (ML)/ Matt
(hug him back) โ๏ธ Hello..
Lucius Bayne (ML's secretary/BFF)
(hug him back) ๐ It’s been a long time.
Enzo Morales (ML's BFF/ Sierra's bro)
(leaves the hug) Yeah.. (smiles slightly)
Enzo Morales (ML's BFF/ Sierra's bro)
You all came at the right time. Have a seat. Lunch will be served right now.
.
They all were sitting in the dining room.
Lunch was served to them.
Massimiliano Langley (ML)/ Matt
โ๏ธโ๏ธWhen did you return?
Enzo Morales (ML's BFF/ Sierra's bro)
I returned two weeks ago. I wanted to meet you all. But I didn’t get any time to spare since some great woman has kept my company’s work piled up while working at other’s company.(looks at Sierra mockingly)
Sierra Morales (FL's senior)
๐พI said I didn’t want to be the CEO or the president of the company, but you forced me, that’s why I ran away.
Enzo Morales (ML's BFF/ Sierra's bro)
Yeah, yeah, you can’t do anything but gobble up food.
Sierra Morales (FL's senior)
(pouts angrily)
Lucius Bayne (ML's secretary/BFF)
(looks at Sierra stuffing food angrily)
Lucius Bayne (ML's secretary/BFF)
(smiles) * She looks like a pufferfish.*
Lucius Bayne (ML's secretary/BFF)
Sierra Morales (FL's senior)
(stuffing food inside her mouth)
Enzo Morales (ML's BFF/ Sierra's bro)
Where is Dimitrios ? (eats a piece of steak)
Massimiliano Langley (ML)/ Matt
โ๏ธโ๏ธ No idea. Most of the time, he comes to my company to escape from his work but don’t know why he didn’t come today.. (cuts the steak into pieces)
Enzo Morales (ML's BFF/ Sierra's bro)
(smiles slightly) That man knows only to lay off.
They all had their lunch and spoke about some business and other things. And later, left for the company.

In the university.
Ariana reached her university as soon as possible and attended her classes.
.
Ariana Vento (FL)/ Bella
(sigh of relief) Hah… Thank God, this work is completed. Now I can submit it to the professor.
.
After the classes got over, Ariana was about to leave the university when she saw an appalling scene in the alley of the school canteen.
Ariana Vento (FL)/ Bella
Bella saw that Celia was crying and struggling from a boy’s grip. And that boy was touching Celia’s shoulder by pulling her closer to him.
Bella saw only a boy facing his back and Celia crying and struggling.
Celia Vento (FL's cousin)/ Ceci
(crying with covering her shoulder)
Ariana Vento (FL)/ Bella
(run to the scene) CELIA !!
Ariana Vento (FL)/ Bella
(pulled the boy by his arms)
Ariana Vento (FL)/ Bella

Marcos Langley (ML's cousin)
Celia Vento (FL's cousin)/ Ceci

Ariana Vento (FL)/ Bella
๐ข๐ขWHAT DON’T..? (to Celia)
Celia Vento (FL's cousin)/ Ceci
(crying while stood in front of Marcos, defending him) Sissy, you misund..
Ariana Vento (FL)/ Bella
๐ข๐ขHE WAS HARASSING YOU AND HERE YOU ARE TRYING TO PROTECT HIM ?
Marcos Langley (ML's cousin)
โ๏ธMs Ariana Vento, I think you should first listen to the whole thing and then act upon it.
Ariana Vento (FL)/ Bella
(looks straight into his eyes coldly) I saw clearly with my eyes what you were trying to do.
Marcos Langley (ML's cousin)
โ๏ธโ๏ธ (scoff) It’s good that brother have broken engagement with a brainless woman like you..
Celia Vento (FL's cousin)/ Ceci
(widened her eyes)
Ariana Vento (FL)/ Bella
(coldly) It was me who have broken the engagement.
Celia Vento (FL's cousin)/ Ceci
(looks at Bella)
Marcos Langley (ML's cousin)
(shrug) โ๏ธBut it was forced by my brother, or you would’ve still clung on to him.
Ariana Vento (FL)/ Bella
โ๏ธDon’t worry. I will never cling to a brat’s brother, who is another brat.
Celia Vento (FL's cousin)/ Ceci
(looks at Marcos)
Celia Vento (FL's cousin)/ Ceci
STOP BOTH OF YOU, PLEASE !!
Celia Vento (FL's cousin)/ Ceci
Celia Vento (FL's cousin)/ Ceci
(stands in front of Marcos and faces Bella)
Celia Vento (FL's cousin)/ Ceci
(dull crying voice) Sissy, he saved me from bad seniors. He didn’t harass me or anything. He protected me from them. Please, sissy you misunderstood him. (holds Bella’s hand)
Celia Vento (FL's cousin)/ Ceci
(worried) Moreover, he got hurt while protecting me.
Ariana Vento (FL)/ Bella
(looks at his hand)
Marcos Langley (ML's cousin)
(blood dripping from his right left arm)
Ariana Vento (FL)/ Bella
(widened her eyes)
Ariana Vento (FL)/ Bella

Marcos Langley (ML's cousin)
(to Celia) โ๏ธFill up some brain in your sister’s head.
Marcos Langley (ML's cousin)
(walking away)
Celia Vento (FL's cousin)/ Ceci
Marcos.. (about to go behind him)
Marcos Langley (ML's cousin)
(didn’t turn and walks away)
Celia Vento (FL's cousin)/ Ceci
(goes to her sister) ๐ Sissy, you shouldn’t have slapped him..
Ariana Vento (FL)/ Bella
(rubs her head) I..I.. thought he was harassing you.
Ariana Vento (FL)/ Bella
Fine. I will apologise to him properly.
Celia Vento (FL's cousin)/ Ceci
(nods)
Ariana Vento (FL)/ Bella
(caress her cheeks) Are you OK..?
Celia Vento (FL's cousin)/ Ceci
(nods) Yes. I’m fine..
Ariana Vento (FL)/ Bella
Then, let’s go back home together.
Celia Vento (FL's cousin)/ Ceci
(hold Bella’s hand)๐ Sissy, don’t tell anything to anyone at home or else they will be worried.
Ariana Vento (FL)/ Bella
(takes a deep breath) For now, I won’t say anything. But you must tell them one day. Don’t hide it from them.
Celia Vento (FL's cousin)/ Ceci
(nods) Mm..
Ariana and Celia left the university and went to their villa.

In the car..
Unknown
(smirks) You are quite good at acting..
unknown
(smirks) Of course, I’m. (bandaging his right arm)
Unknown
(points at Marcos’s right arm) Didn’t it hurt when they stabbed your arm and when her sister slapped you?
unknown
(roll his eyes) Nah.. Well, it did a bit. But I need to endure it for completing that bet.
Marcos Langley (ML's cousin)
(smirks) I need to win this bet and show that fรนรงking boys that I can never lose an easy bet.
Marvin Wilton (Marcos's BFF)
๐ What if you fall in love with her ?
Marcos Langley (ML's cousin)
Come on, dude. It’s just a bet I need to complete. For completing that bet, I need to make her fall in love with me and then confess to her, which is quite easy.
Marvin Wilton (Marcos's BFF)
(smirks slyly) Are you sure you will be able to ? Won’t she trap your heart ?
Marcos Langley (ML's cousin)
๐ Didn’t you see that woman was easy to fool. (smirks) She didn’t even know that I was the one who arranged those seniors to harass her.
Marcos Langley (ML's cousin)
(rudely) Who wants to love that fool ? Moreover, that ugly thing isn’t my type.
Marcos Langley (ML's cousin)
She’s just a prey to catch, whom I need to complete a bet. Nothing else.
Marvin Wilton (Marcos's BFF)
(smirks) Let’s see who gets trapped in this bet in the end.
Marcos Langley (ML's cousin)
๐ I think you lost your mind today for asking these stupid questions.
