Chapter 119- Lover's Fight
HARDIN'S POV
My boss walked into her room as soon as we walked out of the elevator, I could understand her anger.
When we thought we were coming here for something good it ended up with just another story.
I felt frustrated, everything was getting out of hand.
I rubbed my head as I walked to my room, I opened the door and got in, closing it behind me.
I had a meeting in a few minutes with the chairman in charge of the upcoming show we had at the end of the month.
I took off my suit jacket as I carried my laptop and walked to the couch.
I sat down as I turned on my laptop and then patiently waited for it to come on.
When it did, I connected the WiFi as I clicked on the meeting link and he was already waiting.
We started the meeting as we discussed the finishing touches for the show.
After about two hours of discussing everything we came to a conclusion and then we ended the meeting.
My stomach growled, an indication that I was hungry as I dropped the laptop and walked to the phone on the bedside table. I was about to call for room service when I stopped as I walked to the conjoined door between our rooms.
I knocked on the door but I didn't get any response.
“ Miss Miller, you must be hungry, should I order lunch for you?" I asked,
" Fuck off,” came her response from inside.
Oh, okay, that was harsh.
I returned back to the phone as I called room service and asked for something to eat.
This wasn't the plan, we expected so much more coming to Chicago.
I climbed on the bed as I took my laptop and continued working.
Some time later I heard the doorbell ring as I stood up and walked to the door knowing it must be room service.
I opened the door and a meal cart was pushed into my room with all the things I asked for,
“ Thank you," I said to the lady and she gave me a kind smile,
“ Any other thing you need me to do for you before I leave?" she asked and I shook my head before she nodded and walked away.
I took the food and climbed on the bed as I made myself comfortable, eating with one hand and working with the other, yeah, I can multitask.
When I was done eating, the cart was taken away and I closed my laptop as I got out of bed.
I was done with everything that needed my attention, now I needed to know what was going on with my boss.
There are some things that we can't be in control of so we shouldn't kill ourselves when things are not going our way.
I'd have to give her time to clear her mind. I understand that she's pissed but has to take it easy.
Since I didn't have anything else to do I decided to go to bed. I've been lacking sleep and right now my eyes are heavy.
I got into bed as I covered my eyes with my arm waiting for sleep to welcome me into its warm embrace.

ARIANA'S POV
My head was aching so much trying to put the pieces together.
Everything didn't make sense to me and it was driving me crazy. There was someone orchestrating everything and sipping on a glass of wine while I was here cracking my head.
One thing was sure, nobody can hide forever.
I just needed something to cool my mind so I decided to soak myself in a bath as I walked to the bathroom and took off the clothes I had on then I prepared the bath as I added lavender scented oil, bath bubble and then I got into the bath, the water instantly relieving my stress but not taking my problems away.
I soaked myself in the bath as I closed my eyes, calming my mind and ridding myself of anything that has been plaguing my mind.
I woke up with a groan as I stretched then when I looked down. I was still in the bath.
I must have fallen asleep in the bath.
I carefully got out of the bath as I flushed the water away before rinsing my body and then I walked out of the bath as I took a towel and wrapped it around my body.
I walked out of the bathroom and then I walked to the bed where my phone was and saw that I had a few missed calls from my Mom.
And shit! Just how long did I sleep? It's almost 8:00 pm, that's just another proof that I was physically and mentally drained.
I threw my phone back on the bed as I walked to the closet to get something to wear, since it was already late, I decided to get dressed for bed.
I picked a pink silk nightgown that dropped just below my thigh and then I wore the jacket before walking back to my bed as I sat down with a sigh.
The problems were back, not like they even left and the realization that that bitch was in prison chilling instead of telling me what I needed to know.
A knock came and I turned to the door joining Hardin's to mine before I turned away from it like I didn't hear him.
He knocked again and the sound got me pissed, the next thing I knew was that I was walking to the door in anger.
I pushed the door open and he was standing there with a tray of food in his hand.
“ What?! What is it, Hardin?!" I asked in anger as I looked at him,
“ I was just worried about you, you haven't had anything since we returned from the police station so I…" I didn't let him finish what he wanted to say. I pushed the tray he was holding and he moved back in shock.
" We have bigger things to take care of and you think my problem is food, what the fuck is wrong with you? We've been on this stupid case for how long? And we have gone nowhere!” I snapped,
" We're definitely going to…"
“ Shut the fuck up!" I cut him off and without warning his hand suddenly wrapped around my neck as he pushed me to the wall.
“ Say. That. Again,"
