"But I'll be glad if you choose to trust in our love. I love you Ria. I never stopped and won't ever. Let's forget everything and move on."
"I… I don't know if that's even possible anymore. Not after everything," Ariel said skeptically, refusing to meet George's earnest gaze, especially after hearing that affectionate nickname he always called her in the past… My Ria.'
George took a deep breath, his voice trembling but determined. "I'll do whatever it takes to make it possible for us, Ria. Just give me the chance to try."
The air between them was thick with tension as Ariel fought the greatest battle of her life.
Meanwhile, Lauren and Cheryl watched silently, hoping that Ariel would make the right decision. It was clear her so-called friend was indeed the enemy that drove them apart clearly out of jealousy. Who can tell she didn't have an eye for George while she was pretending to be Ariel's friend.
