Chapter 36- The Trip
ARIANA'S POV
“ I'm going to miss you Mom," I said as I hugged my Mom tightly. I didn't want to leave her because I was worried Uncle Garry might try something while I was away. She still hasn't told me what he told her or if he has been threatening her.
“ I thought you never had a problem with traveling, why are you acting like a baby now?" She asked and I couldn't help but chuckle as I pulled away from the hug. Back then I didn't have to worry because she and dad had each other and they always took care of each other. But I could bring myself to say that because it'd only ruin her mood.
We walked arm in arm outside the house and just then my assistant's car pulled over. Well he's quiet on time.
My bags were already outside.
I watched as he opened his car door and stepped out.
“ Good morning Mrs Miller, Miss Miller," he greeted with a nod as he opened the car boot and started putting my bags inside, before he closed the boot and turned to us.
“ It's time to go Mom,” I said as I hugged my Mom once again.
" Mr. Smith please take care of my daughter,” my Mom said and my assistant nodded.
" Mom you sound like I'm going for war or something, I'm going for a fashion show in Paris and I'm hoping to have a good time, so stop worrying,” I said as we both walked to my assistant's car.
“ Alright, just be safe honey," she said as she kissed me on the forehead before I opened the door and got in.
I turned to look at the driver's side and noticed that the window looked like it was hit hard by…wait, is that a bullet?
What happened?
“ What happened to your car?" I asked immediately he got into the car.
" I was attacked last night, someone shot at me but missed but it hit the car window, I'll have it checked when I come back,” he said as he started the car.
" That's strange, did you report it to the police? What if there's someone out there for your life?” I asked but he shook his head.
“ I'm not going to worry myself about that, whoever sent those people last night was trying to give me a warning and I know I haven't done wrong to anyone so I don't get why anyone would want to kill me,” He said as we drove out of the mansion.
“ What do you mean you're not going to worry yourself? You're reporting this to the police when we get back," I said as I turned to look out the window as we drove past buildings.
“ If you say so," That was all he said as he continued driving and I didn't try to bring up any conversation.
We reached the airport as the car stopped and we both came down as he went to the boot of the car to bring down our bags.
We were now comfortably seated in the plane as I put my neck pillow to get more comfortable.
I closed my eyes and soon enough I fell asleep.
I felt like someone was tapping my shoulder so I slowly peeled my eyes open.
“ We're here," My assistant said as I stretched before I removed the sit belt I was wearing and stood up.
We walked out of the plane and a car was already waiting for us. I was so exhausted after sitting for hours on the plane. I was just sleeping and waking up in-between.
My assistant opened the car door and I got in as the door closed and then he turned around to get in from the other side.
He said something to the driver but I was too asleep to hear what he was saying.
Once again I felt a light tap on my shoulder but this time I was feeling too exhausted to open my eyes.
“ Miss Miller," Someone called.
“ Leave me alone," I mumbled as I made myself comfortable, turning to the window.
“ You would sleep better if we go inside, I know you're tired," The person said but I still didn't respond.
I heard a sigh before it looked like someone was about to carry me.
“ Get your fucking hands off me!" I snapped before I opened my eyes.
“ I'm…I'm sorry, I didn't mean to get angry,” I said when I realized it was my assistant.
“ It's okay, you must be really tired," He said and I nodded before I got out of the car.
We walked together inside the hotel we would be staying in as he walked to the receptionist to get our room key while I just waited for him.
“ What? What are you talking about?" I made the reservation for the rooms last week. What do you mean by there aren't any available rooms in this entire hotel?” I heard my assistant ask the receptionist.
I walked to the reception to see what was going on.
“ What's going on?" I asked as I looked at the receptionist before turning to my assistant.
“ Everything is alright,” he said with a sigh.
" If everything is alright why aren't we going to our room already?" I asked.
“ There's just a misunderstanding, it will be sorted out shortly," He said.
" Okay,” I said before I decided to go sit down, he said it was okay after all.
Some minutes later he walked to me.
“ I'm sorry about the delay, everything has been sorted out," he said and I nodded before I stood up from where I was sitting.
We walked to the elevator as we both got in. The elevator door was about to close when a lady ran to it and held the door as she quickly got in before it could close.
She was about to say something when she stopped as she turned to my assistant in surprise.
“Hardin?”
