Chapter 52
Arianna woke up in the morning and stretched her bones, she was up late just like she had gone to bed late. Well it was difficult
falling asleep in a new environment. She checked on her baby who was still sleeping comfortably, or maybe not too comfortably.
Her bed was not as cozy as the one in Oliver’s house.
She stood up and decided to take her phone. She had kept it switched off since the moment that she left home for the airport.
She knew that Oliver would try to contact her when she was gone and if she listened to his voice, then he might succeed in
making her change her mind and stay back, so it was best to keep it off.
She brought the phone out of one of her travel bags and switched it on. Just then. Several messages from Oliver started to
barge in continuously; she did not open any of them till they had all entered. It was a total of eighty messages and that made Aria
feel bad.
At first she did not want to open the text messages but on a second thought, she decided to check a few.
The first one read, “Where are you Honey Bunny?” she exhaled before opening the second one. It read, “Please Pick my calls
Aria, I need to talk to you.” She moved on to a next one that read, “Don’t do this Aria, I can’t live without you.”
That was it, she felt like she had had enough, if she opened anymore, she would feel emotional and could end up crying.
She ignored the rest of the messages and went to her email. She wanted to log it out so that she could log into a new one, that
way Oliver would not be able to reach her.
She opened the email box and noticed that there had been a message from the legal rights departments which had been unseen
for the past three days. She was curious to know what the contents of the message was, so she opened it.
Her eyes widened with what she saw next, she gasped and closed her mouth with her palm. She could not believe that Oliver
the divorce papers, her eyes had seen something similar but she did not care to pay attention to it.
She felt bad knowing that he had only done it to win her trust and now he would not be able to get access to those assets or
cash because she was not around to will it back to him, or was that his parting gift for her and her daughter?
She wondered how he was going to cope without all that Capital for backup. How was his company going to stand if they faced
any major setbacks or conflicts? It was like living on life support.
She wished she could return the money and assets to him but to return it to him, his signature would be needed and that would
mean going back to Las Vegas. She knew how difficult it was for her to come here, so it would be impossible for her to go back
to Las Vegas.
Well, Oliver must have wanted her to keep the money if he willed it to her on purpose. Aria thought about it and felt that it
wouldn’t be a problem if she withdrew some money from the account for her baby’s upkeep, she could always put it back when
she found a good job..
She had also been wondering how she would survive here without much money with her. She had used her savings to book the
flight to here and she did not want to be a burden to the old couple she was now staying with; they had already tried by giving
her a roof to lay her head under, it would not be proper to bother them more.
Come to think of it, Oliver would not have transferred it all to her if he could not survive without it, and it was not like she was
going to take it all. Just ten percent of it was enough to give her baby a good life for a few years, a capital to stand with was all
she needed.
Although it was hard to conclude on that, she finally decided to visit the branch of the required office and make a little cash
withdrawal from the account Oliver had put in her control. She would just take a million out of the billions in it. One million dollars
would be enough to take care of her child.
own money and be her own woman but she needed a solid foundation to achieve that.

Oliver woke up on the sofa the next morning and right after taking his bath, he headed to Rosie’s house. He hoped to find Aria
there but once again he was disappointed.
When he got there, he met no one. He refused to leave, waiting for someone to show up and an hour later, Rosie returned. She
had just returned from a night party.
She got to her door and met Oliver standing there, she scoffed and went on to open it like he was not there but Oliver stood
between her and the door, with a face devoid of emotions.
“Where is she?” He asked solemnly.
“Look Mr. Oliver, I feel very exhausted and have no strength to argue or fight. I have told you already that Arianna is out of town,
she left Las Vegas for good. Okay fine, u would tell you where she went, she would be in London by now, she left very early
yesterday,” Rosie confessed.
Oliver was confused, even Rosie said that Aria went to London, but why did all of the airports report that she was not on any of
the planes. Was she alright? Has something bad happened to her?
“London? But the embassy reported that she did not arrive there,” he argued.
“So you were going after her? Anyway she did, I would have been worried if I had not spoken to her this morning, but she called
me and confirmed that she was safe.”
“I have been trying to call her but her number is switched off,” Oliver said.
“That is because she does not want to talk to you, just go home Oliver, go and start your life afresh, forget about Aria, she is
gone,” Rosie replied.
“You don’t tell me what to do, Aria cannot leave me,” he stated.
“Too late, she already did, please excuse me, if I don’t get a sleep right away, I could pass out.” Rosie chuckled and pushed him
aside gently.
She opened the door and walked in while Oliver stood out there in the cold, looking lost. He had no idea what to do next, should
he go in search of her or accept the fact that she was gone for real, that she had moved on?
