Chapter 48

Arabelle huffed pulling her dress on her body and brushing her hair . She knew it was cold out side but she really wanted to wear a dress today . It was Denna's birthday . They were going to skip all the from lunch and go to a dinner to have a little party . Since Arabelle was now sure she will go to the evening party where Archer's mother invited her she had apologised to Denna for not being there with her till night .

Hence everyone suggested that the lunch would be at the nearby dinner and then other would go down to the club at night . Arabelle sure was nervous going there since she wasn't sure if Archer would be there or not . But Miss Marilyn had already made arrangements in picking her up . Arabelle had received a gift from Marilyn saying that she wanted to buy her son's girlfriend a gift and it would be perfect , She got a cream coloured mermaid dress .

Arabelle of course was happy but she had to send the dress to alterations however she was quite surprised when it only needed a few of them . " Okay alright ,Who's gonna have wine and who's gonna drink beer ?" Sky asked and Arabelle stared at him . " Aren't we underage ?" she asked and Denna giggled ." I know the manager , that's why we are here Arabelle . Now i know you are busy in the evening going out with Archer so drink some wine , it won't give you any dizziness " Denna explained and she only nodded .

Archer had once allowed her to take a sip of his wine when they were out for a dinner date . It tasted good but he didn't let her drink too much . As the lunch came and everyone digs in , Arabelle of course had ordered pasta and was having only a generous amount of wine . She never had a whole glass of wine before , she was proud of herself for that . The thought of what Archer might think was throw out the window by her subconscious mind . She was angry at him . He had shouted at her for no specific reason . Arabelle didn't mind stepping out his car and not saying goodbye to him this morning . Nor he or she spoke . It was however making Archer crazy .

Archer grits his teeth as his mother smiles at him . " You do know inviting my women to this party means showing everyone that i have a future wife and that i am going to married soon . Which is not happening mother " he said and she sighs . " Its not like that . I just want you to show her to us , introduce the women to us who you have been with with quite some time " Archer rolled his eyes ," Forget it she isn't coming " he said and his mother frowned . " Archer , aren't you being to rude to me ?" Archer sighs leaning back on the couch . " I am just stressed from work mom , i am sorry " he said and walked away . His mother frowned deeply .

It was upto Arabelle whether to come or not . But his mother was hoping that she would impress her by ignoring his ever demanding son and grace them with her presence . Archer clenched his jaw looking at the presentation the newbi in his company had made . He chuckled , even a third year engineer can do that . He stood up and faced his assistant and muttered . " I don't want useless men like him in the Unit Team . Make him do fax or something ". The assistant held his laugh as Archer walked away .

As he continued with his work he got a message from one of his men showing the picture of Aarbelle's stalker sitting on the floor with bruises on his face given by his men . Archer smirked and called him . " Sir " he answer . " Make sure you delete all the pictures he has of Arabelle on his phone and go check his house if there are any developed pictures he has " , " We already did so sir , we found five under his bed " Archer felt his inner beast raging in anger . " Break his wrist , make sure he thinks twice before taking pictures my women or any other for that matter " He got an instant reply saying yes and he hung up .

He couldn't believe men like that boy . Did they go as far as to take pictures of women . Archer growled in frustration knocking his glass of water down .

Arabelle picked her dress up from a well known boutique where they had once altered her dress . She slipped it on at home for it fit perfectly . She bit her lip looking at the beautiful dress , It had a boat neck with net full sleeves , It flared down from her knees . It didn't revel any cleavage which she was thank full for , As the clock struck seven she made her self presentable with her hair pinned in a beautiful bow with rest left to flow down to her waist , her lips painted the shade of pink and the pink blush on her cheeks .She added a golden necklace Archer gave her . Although it didn't show up due to it being thin , she still loved it on her .

She waited for the car to picked her up , her mind wander to Archer , What would he think of her get up ? the dress? Soon the car came and she took her coat with her to keep her phone and some other things . The driver bowed to her making her blush and she got in . An hour long ride gave her anxiety . As the car stopped she looked stunned as the mansion she was on the grounds of was huge .

The Driver helped her out the door and she walked up the stairs too see a women . She looked at her and her eyes went wide . " Arabelle !" She exclaimed . Arabelle who had no idea who she was assumed she might be Miss Marilyn . As that women hugged her, Arabelle nervously hugged her back . " good evening " She said in a low tone . " Evening my dear , I am Archer's mother , i know how you look since he showed me your picture " Arabelle raised her eyebrows . " Oh ! lets go inside " she said . " Amy dear , stay here to greet the guest , i will be back " The girl in a little blue nodded .

Arabelle walked in to see many, many people . She gulped as Marilyn handed her a glass of golden liquid . " Don't worry , i know you are 18 , but its just for one evening so don't think and drink up .Arabelle smiled taking a small sip , inside she cringed at the taste but didn't show it . Arabelle was introduced to Archer's cousin who were very nice and soft spoken to her . .

" About time our little cousin took a wife " She heard someone saw and turned around . " Hush you , don't make her red with blush " Marilyn said chuckling . Arabelle was already blushing by now , Wife ? They considered her and Archer's future wife ? " Don't take him seriously he is just joking around "

Arabelle chuckled as one of Archer's cousin Lucifer joked . Her eyes moved from the beautiful chandelier to the amazing painting on the wall , then to Marilyn who was speaking with other guest . Her eyes moved to someone making there wake towards the center of the room in a black suit and when his face showed up she took a step back and gulped . Her breath hitched and her eyes stayed on him As he made his way towards her with a raging anger .

Archer was here , Archer was here to get her .
