She quickly took out her phone and decided to send the rental agency a message.
As she was typing, a troubling thought dawned on Ariana’s mind—how did Theodore know where she lived? © She had mulled over it the previous night, but hadn’t had a chance to investigate further.
It seemed unlikely that Theodore, no matter how resourceful he was, could locate her within a mere two days and move in as her next-door neighbor.
Ariana began to speculate if someone else was involved. Perhaps, Sarah had inadvertently let the secret slip? The memory of Sarah’s guilty expression on the day after Ariana had rented the apartment crept up on her. Ariana was seething with anger as she stormed to the staircase to call Sarah who had already flown to a different city.
When Sarah finally answered, her voice was bubbly with excitement. “Hey, sweetie! What's up? Why are you calling me so early?”
Ariana’s fury only intensified at the sound of her cheerful voice. “Did you do something to me?” she demanded. Sarah sounded perplexed. “What are you talking about?” Ariana gritted her teeth. “Did you tell Theodore where | live? He’s now my neighbor!”
Sarah gasped in surprise, and then broke into laughter. “Oh, my God! | didn’t think Theodore would go that far! He’s such a player, that CEO of yours.”
“Sarah! Why are you laughing?” Ariana demanded.
“Very well, I'll stop laughing,” Sarah responded gravely. “I apologize, but | had no other choice. You can’t imagine how terrified | was when he showed up in front of me with more than ten menacing, muscular men. | thought I’d crossed paths with some nefarious gangsters.”
Ariana was momentarily at a loss for words. Sensing her unease, Sarah quickly conjured up an excuse and hung up the phone. “Alas...” Ariana sighed.
Deep down, she knew that Sarah’s reaction was reasonable. After all, Theodore was a force to be reckoned with. Besides, Sarah was an artist of SJ Entertainment. She couldn’t go against her boss.
The thought of moving again had crossed Ariana’s mind, but the phone call changed everything. It was pointless to hide from Theodore because he would eventually find her. She couldn’t bear the thought of him harassing her friends, so she decided to stay put. ©
Ariana arrived at the company early in the morning, only to find someone waiting for her. Tyler was squatting at the entrance, looking up at her with a broad smile on his face.
“Arianal!” he exclaimed happily.
Ariana’s eyebrows lifted up in surprise as she saw Tyler waiting outside. It was still early, and the air was chilly with a frosty bite. She couldn’t help but wonder how long he had been waiting there. “How long have you been here?” she asked, a tinge of worry in her voice.
Tyler gave her a small, restrained smile. “Not long,” he replied.
