The Divorced Heiress (Amanda and Damian)

Chapter 7

Ariana's POV.

Looking at Amanda, I honestly didn't know what to say or do. Although I had been talking to her, I was still nervous. After all, what if she blames them for all the suffering she has passed through?

As I was about to say something something hit me hard making me stop whatever I was about to do and took out my phone. As a cold and indifferent businesswoman, I had a phone whose cover was pitch black as if the owner did

not have life.

It is true though that everyone in our family had been living as if their

older brothers and I souls left them ages ago. When she left us, apart from my o the others were still kids. Even though we had our own business out of our preference, there wasn't much we could do. We could only rely on our parents aunts and uncles to try to find her. When my brother became successful and was ready to take over the business at the age of twenty two, he started searching for her once more. We have been working hard and becoming successful in hopes that when we become that, we will be able to find her.

Knowing how much everyone in the family loves her, I opened the family's group and started typing.

Me: I have some news.

Ace: Since when did our ice queen have time for us, huh?

Alex: Knowing her, there must be something so important to tell us.

I didn't dare say what I wanted to say since I was waiting for all of them to

I didn't dare say what i wanted to say since I was waiting for all of them to be present. I didn't want any of them to say that I didn't tell them, thus, I waited patiently even though my patience was really running out.

Adrian:.....

Marco: Ria, has something happen over there?

Dad: Seems that you have a lot of free time over there, maybe I should have given you a different company to keep busy.

Mom: Don't even think abou. it, you old man. Let my daughter have fun!!!!

Luke: Ria, what's up?

Seeing that my brothers, cousins and parents were there, I decided to shock.

them for a little while.

Me: I found Amanda.

There was silence and I knew that they were trying to process everything. Knowing that they might think that I was lying to them or playing a prank on them, I took a few pictures of Amanda when she and Elsa were eating ice cream. Even though I knew they could see the resemblance, that was not proof

for them. I took another picture with the birthmark evident and sent it to

the group.

Ace: F**k!

Adrian: Where did you find her?

-L

Me: I was working in a cafe and she came and sat in front of me.

Dad: If she knew who you really were, why didn't she find you sooner?

Knowing Dad's character, I knew that he was mad and it wouldn't help if there was more misunderstanding. 'Cause if he got angry, there was no way Amanda would go home and be welcomed with open hands.

Marco: She is so beautiful. My baby sister is the most beautiful person in the whole world.

Alex: F**k off! She is my baby ister, not yours! Go tell your mother to give you one and stop coveting mine.

Me: Dad, she didn't know. She was just tired and didn't look where she was sitting. She doesn't remember us. But after I said what I used to tell her when she pretended to be strong and she wanted to cry. She looked at me and called me Ariana then asked whether I was really her sister.

Luke: I am on my way.

Seeing this, I facepalmed myself as I wondered why I even told them.

Me: Chillax big boy. I will be taking her home today. We can all meet there.

Marco: Dad and mom aren't here. I am sure they are still mountain climbing and can't care about phones.

Luke: I will call them.

Adrian: How is my little troublemaker? How has she been doing all these years?

Me: I will tell you when I arrive big brother

Mom: My baby. I have already arranged the plane for you. Bring my baby as soon as possible.

Dad: Yeah and come with the girl sitting with her, I can tell that they are so close.

Me: No way! I won't. With her present, you would enjoy time with Amanda since she talks too much. Also, the fact that she is one of Ace's crazy admirers doesn't help. You will meet her another day. Just not today.

Ace:??? She is cute but sadly, today I will just be dedicating my day to little Maddy. No, the whole month. am clearing the schedule for a month.

Me: Adrian, she still remembers how strict you are.

"Madam, the plane is ready."

Hearing my driver saying that, I looked up and nodded at him.

"We will be out in a few. Since it is some distance from here to the airport, I think we will use the jet that is on the rooftop," I said.

"Elsa, sorry but I will take Amanda with me. After she familiarizes herself with the city and everything there, you can come and visit her," I said as I looked at her.

"Okay, I have no problem with that. I am just happy that she has found her family," she said making me nod my head.

"Yes madam," he said before leaving.

"Wait, you can fly a jet?" Elsa asked and I looked at her, finding her

shocked.

Amanda also had the same face and I was confused.

"Since we also have aviation companies, every child in the family has to do aviation. Since you haven't studied it, I think you have a busy schedule. ahead of you girl." I answered her but the last sentence was meant for

Amanda.

"If I may ask. What else are you required to do?" Elsa asked.

I didn't want to answer since I felt like it was a waste of time but I could tell from Amanda's face that she was also curious.

"Singing, perfecting your vocals. Playing different instruments, painting, calligraphy, fashion design, architecture. Business management, cooking, knowing some medicine skills and, as girls, makeup artists," I answered.

"Bestie, I pity you," Elsa said as she looked at Amanda.

"No, it is a good thing."
