"He stole my heart so I am planning a revenge. I am going to take his last name."- unknown

Arabella POV

I entered the high building and walked directly to the reception counter. The receptionist with a black uniform smiled and greeted me politely. I'm not sure if she recognizes me since this was the first time I came to Dominic's office.

"Good evening, Mrs. Duncan," she greeted which made me stunned. She just clears my doubt that I had earlier. I smiled at the last name. I realized how much I love that name now.

"Good evening. Is Dominic still in his office?" I asked being impatient but tried my best to control it.

"Yes, he is still in his office at this hour. Do you want me to tell him about your arrival?"

"No, it's okay. I will go to his room. Please, can you let me know where his office is?"

"On the 18th floor, Mrs. I will lead you the way. Please," she said leading the way to the lift.

"It's okay. I will take it from here," I refused politely which she nodded with a smile still on her face.

I pressed the button with the number eighteen written on it and leaned on the metallic wall of the lift while waiting for the lift to arrive on the floor. Only a few minutes and I heard a 'ding' sound signified that I arrived on the floor.

I stepped out from the lift and saw some open space on the left side whilst on the right side there are few rooms with names written on each of the doors. I saw a blonde girl sitting at the front desk and I approached her for the direction.

"Hi, may I know which one is Dominic's office?"

"Oh, hi, Mrs. Duncan. The reception told me about your arrival. The last room at the corner is Mr. Duncan's room," She pointed to the last room on the right side.

"Is he having a meeting inside the room now?" I just want to make sure I didn't make an ugly scene for showing up while he was busy attending meetings or discussions with any client.

"No, his friend is in the room-" She didn't finish her words which I cut her off.

"Grace?" I confirmed. Called it woman's instinct. She nodded.

Great, good timing. It's showtime.

I remain my calm expression and thanking her before I headed to Dominic's room. Without knocking on the door, I entered the room and there were two figures that turned to look at me. One with a shocked expression whiles the other one with a devilish smile. Just wait; I will kill that smile from your face soon.

"Sweetheart, what-"

"Hey, love," I called him with a nickname that I never used before and he seems confused and shocked. I walked to him and sat on his lap while the devil woman, Grace was on the chair across us. She glared at me with a pissed-off look to which I silently sending her a look of hell. I can sense Dominic stared at me while his hand hugged my waist and the other hand holds my leg so that I can rest stably on his lap.

"What is she doing here in your office?" I purposely asked to annoy her more.

"Oh, I know. I think she wants to claim you back." I said while nuzzling my nose to his.

"Am I right?" I continued and turned to look at her.

"Bitch, do you really think he ever loves you?" She scowled.

"Hey, don't you dare call her like that!" Dominic protected me.

"Now you see how much he loves me," I chided proudly.
