Chapter 116 Why did you call?
Arianna's POV
I responded after keeping him in much suspense.
"Hello love" his voice calls in a muffle.
"Hey" I responded beneath my breath and then raked my left eye brows.
I had regained my strength hearing his voice alone. He was everything I needed.
"Are you alright, you sound weak" he muses, his voice a bit tensed. I could hear loud sounds in the background like he was in a club or something.
I tugged my free hand in my pocket and bow my head slightly, staring at the sneakers i wore.
"I'm fine, why did you call?" I snapped like I didn't want him to be calling me every hour.
I just wanted to know his reason, to have him sing in my ears that he misses me and just want to vanish and be home with me.
Sometimes, he only calls to confess his love and at a point I felt he's about to die.
Nevertheless, iy gives me hope that I was loved.
He scoffed at me, and then mused. I didn't hear what he was saying but I knew he was calling me dramatic.
"I was worried about you, are sure you're okay?"
That was his response and I felt my heart flustered. He was caring passionately for me.
That was something I love about him and I must say, we're just inseparable.
"Oh, my knight, I'm, fine" I teased, blushing but then cleared my throat just to act bossy.
My blush sold me off while my eyes just freely gaze around the place, watching as people go about their weekend bustle and activities.
It was getting rowdier and the noise made my head throbs.
"Let's have a video call, I want to know where you are..."
"Ravyen, where are you currently?" I cut in because he can't be serious right now.
I knew he was just trying to be concern but we just can't have video call right there.
I needed to get home first, at least. Furthermore, I had some office treats to make.
"You should ask me how I'm feeling" he pointed out and I shook my head, feeling ridiculous.
It seems his whereabout wasn't a bother as he's quite concerned about his emotions.
The music was louder and I could hear someone calling out to him for a dance in the background.
"Don't switch the question" I uttered nervously anticipating his reply.
"At a crazy client birthday party, he forced me to come along, just to sign the contract" he poured out. I guess he was bored and wanted to keep talking to me.
"Well, I'm just taking a walk" I replied peering my eyes to and fro if perhaps that stranger is hiding somewhere.
"Babe, I'd be staying longer, something came up" he announced in a dull tone. I guess he never meant for all these to happen.
However, fate just decided to play a little trick. I was sad that I wouldn't be seeing him anytime soon but he encouraged me that he'd make up to it.
"It's okay, as long as you're fine there" I added with a bright smile, quite exhausted from the race.
"I love you, stay safe, if you've got any problem, I'm just a step away" he confesses and i scoffed him.
I was silent, wanting to hear only his voice but it seems he was stunned that I wasn't speaking.
A step away indeed when it's like a thousand miles away from here.
"You're forgetting something" he pressed on and I held my laughter. Yeah, he wants me to repeat his lines too.
"I love you ravyen" I muttered with a broad smile.
He chuckled and I heard someone calling out to him but his response was, 'i'm busy with my amore'
I blushed the more and then beckoned on him to terminate the call.
He hesitated and I didn't want to end it. We giggled on the phone before I terminated the call.
I exhaled and then strolled back home, although cautious of the path i took this time.
Once I was home, I decided to change and called the chauffeur to take me to work.
Yeah, a part of me I can't escape and here I am waiting at the garage and feeling bizzare because of a feeling of being followed.
The chauffeur arrived just in time and when he had driven me outside the house, I felt someone was waiting for me outside.
It just didn't begin today and I feel someone's stalking me.
The worst of it all is that the person seems to visible, more like a warning that they're everywhere, waiting for me.
It's followed by the threats I've received and it's becoming hectic and frightening.
At first, I didn't want to inform ravyen as he was really choked up but then, my life and that of our unborn baby is at risk.
It was a relief informing him. He would have come over himself but I snarled him to stay away.
All he had to do is tighten the security and he did just that but my panic is sending my psychopath brother over here!
Oh no, not kylian. I know he'd say why don't I just die so he could have his piece of mind!
He was something else and Kylian was the wrong person to keep an eye on me.
I was fine with the security personnels and bodyguards who appeared like knights from nowhere.
They were intimidating and could make anyone creep out of their skin. Just the perfect people I know.
With them around, I knew I was safe and could attend the business conference. There i want to proudly show my face to Ivan.
I know he'd come around, to see my face. After all, I was becoming popular because of the company ravyen had made me run.
I desire to be independent though but then it starts from here and then i'd build my empire.
It's day 10 and my ravyen isn't here yet. I miss him so much and his calls weren't enough.
After the conference, I intend to meet him and that's it. A surprise. The conference tonight and I anticipate for it.
While I was lost in thoughts, the doorbell rang. Oh no, kylian was certainly here.
