Chapter 29- It's A Trap

I looked at arrogant Ariana in shock, surprised as to why she would be hugging me until I saw a couple walking our way.

“ Ariana, you're here," A man I didn't care to know asked as he looked between Ariana and I, that was when I understood what was happening.

“ Yeah, my boyfriend and I came for a little shopping," she said as she pulled from the hug and held my hand.

They way she held my hand tightly told me she was warning me to play along or I was going to get in serious trouble and as much as I didn't want to, I played along.

“ Who are they babe?" I asked as my hands went around her waist, better make them believe what we were showing them was real.

“ This is Alex, my ex, and this is…” She stopped like she didn't know the woman he was with.

" Lilly, his girlfriend,” The woman introduced herself and I could tell arrogant Ariana was finding it hard not to roll her eyes.

“ Well, you guys should enjoy your shopping, we have to go right?" The lady said as she turned to the Alex guy and he nodded.

“ Will see you around," The Alex guy said as his eyes went to my hands holding her waist, before he turned to her with a smile.

“ Enjoy your shopping," he said before he took the woman's hand and they both walked away.

As soon as they were out of sight, arrogant Ariana pushed my hand on her waist.

“ Get your hands off me," She said and this time I couldn't help it I rolled my eyes.

What does she think of herself? Wasn't she the one who just jumped on me to hug me, now she's acting like I willingly put my hands around her.

I wonder how that guy coped dating a woman like her, it would have been really hard. Poor guy, maybe that was why they broke up.

Ariana turned to me with a glare before she turned to the collection of wristwatches she was looking at. One of these days her eyes shouldn't fall because of the way she was continually glaring at me.

“ My grandpa's birthday is next week Sunday, by then we should be back from Paris, I want to get him an early birthday present, I hate to say this but since you've worked as his assistant for a long time you're going to know what type of thing he'd like, so help me pick," She said without turning to look at me.

It turns out that anything I touched she would tell me no, I pick this, she picks that, she was against my opinion, yet she said she wanted my help.

After so much disapproval from her and me being fed up, she decided to get him a cane with a gold head.

She paid for it as we took the cane and I thought she was done until I saw her walk to the women clothing section. I was contemplating if I should still continue with her since she only called me to help her with a gift for Mr. Miller but she turned to me, a clear indication that I was to continue with her.

I had plans, I had plans this weekend but this woman was already ruining them.

I followed her as she started shopping, giving me bags after bags to hold. She should have just told me I was now her slave.

She didn't stop with clothes, she went to the shoe section and started buying shoes. I had a feeling she was doing this on purpose just to tell me she was in control once again. I've noticed that she likes doing that, rather than talking, she'd just do one thing to make you remember who the boss was.

By the time we were walking out of the mall the bags I was holding were almost falling and this woman didn't even bother holding even one bag except the cane we picked for Mr. Miller.

She opened her car boot and I put the bags inside before closing it.

“ Well, enjoy the rest of your day Miss Miller," I said as I cleaned invisible dirt from my hands and was about to walk away but she stopped me.

“ Where do you think you're going?" She asked and I turned to her looking confused.

“ To my car," I said.

“ To your car? Who is going to drive me home?" She asked as she folded her hands looking at me.

Whoever drove her here could definitely drive her back.

“ Where's your driver, Miss Miller?" I asked.

" He's not here which means you have to drive me home,” She said.

" But who drove you here?” I asked, already feeling frustrated with her.

" Stop asking me silly questions and just drive me home Mr. Smith, I hate being questioned, okay,” She said.

“ But my car is here, how can I leave it? You can just drive yourself home miss Miller," I said but her response was to open the car door as she sat in the back seat of the car.

Fuck, I hate this woman.

I walked to the security as I gave him my car key telling him a woman would be coming to get it as I gave him her description and name.

I walked back to the witch’s car and got in as I started the car then put a call across to Vera.

“ Hey sweet, please can you help me pick my car from The Hour Central Mall, the key is with the security, I told him you'll be coming to get it,” I said.

" What happened?” She asked.

" I'll explain everything when we meet, bye love you,” I said before I ended the call only to be met by the glaring eyes of arrogant Ariana through the mirror.

" So you're going to get popcorn and gossip about me with your friend, maybe I should send a wine to make it better,” She said but I ignored her as I continued driving.

When we reached the Miller's mansion the gate opened and I drove in. I parked in front of the house as some of the maids immediately came out to take the things she got.

I knew I couldn't leave without seeing Mr. Miller so I asked for where he was and they told me he was in his game room.

I walked to the room and knocked as he told me to come inside.

“ Oh, Hardin, what a pleasant surprise, happy to see you," he said as he beckoned me to come sit beside him.

Not too long after I sat down a knock came on the door.

Mr. Miller told the person to come in and Ariana walked in.

“ Oh, you're here with Mr. Smith, grandpa has Mr. Smith told you what a wonderful time we have been having working together?" Arrogant Ariana asked in a sweet voice and I quickly turned to her in confusion, what was she trying to do?

“ Oh really?" Mr. Miller asked, seeming pleased with arrogant Ariana's confession but I wasn't.

“ Come on Mr. Smith, go ahead and tell him, haven't we been having a good time working together?"

She knew why she asked me to drive her home, she had it all planned out.

This was a trap.
