Chapter 1

SEOUL, 12PM, KRYSTAL GROUP OF COMPANIES**

Arizona's cries filled the whole office and anyone passing by will think something bad really happened.

Her gorgeously pedicured legs are on the table and she has a big bowl of popcorn with her, she hugged the bowl to her chest.

She's eating the popcorn as she cried, watching a drama on TV.

"How sad" she sobbed, eating from the popcorn again.

She has finished almost a roll of tissue in wiping her tears.

"Guys are wicked, how could he do that to her" she cried, eating from the popcorn again as she continued watching the movie.

Her manager entered the office and sighed, knowing she's at it again.

"Ligament is that you?" She asked, still not looking away from the TV.

" Manager Yang, not Ligament" he replied, coming in fully .

He sighed, seeing the mess of tissues on the ground.

"Those aren't real tears" he said and Arizona looked up at him.

"This movie is heartbreaking seriously, how could Hoseok break up with Jenny after five years of dating, five f*cking years Ligament" she sniffed.

" It's Manager Yang, not Ligament" Yang replied, folding his fists

Arizona continued crying while eating popcorn.

"All men are snakes, Hoseok is a cobra" she cried

"Then can I call Mr Banks a python?" Yang said and Arizona glared at him.

" My dad?, Are you crazy?, Are you crazy!" She shouted, throwing the popcorn bowl at him

He avoided it and it landed on the ground.

She stood and put off the TV before wiping her fake tears.

"And you should really take this TV out of this place, it's an office,not a living room" Yang said.

" I get to decide how my office will look like ok?" she replied and gasped.

" My blue car is arriving today!"

"Another car?, You bought three cars this month already and this is just the twentieth day of the month, you have more than thirty cars that you haven't driven in your garage, Arizona!" Yang cautioned.

Arizona smiled and flaunted her hair

"What's so wrong about it?, I own my money anyways, I'm thinking of buying a skyscraper by next month, oh I need another private jet too,I got tired of the current one, then I'll buy...

"The whole Korea should come next, you'll buy the whole Korea at this rate, look Arizona, I know you have the money but....

"Why are you here?, The last time I checked, I'm done with all my scheduled appointments for today" she interrupted.

" Mr Kevin is waiting at the institute already" Yang replied and her eyes widened.

" Zanillia's manager?"

" Yes, so you have to meet him as soon as possible if you really wanna get the contract" Yang said and Arizona smiled.

" Yes!, Arielle is so dead!" She gushed, walking into her dressing room.

Yeah, she has a dressing room in her office and it's full of luxury just like her dressing room at home.

She changes anytime she needs to go out.

She came out twenty minutes later, looking more stunning in another dress, she retouched her makeup too.

"Let's go Ligament!" She said happily, almost bouncing on her heels.

" It's Yang... Yang" Yang muttered as he walked beside her.

They took the elevator downstairs and her staffs kept bowing as she walked out with Yang.

Her guards joined her in front of the company and Yang opened the car door for her.

"I don't need guards, stay back" she ordered and the numerous guards stepped back

She got in the car and Yang got in with her.

"The institute" Yang said and the driver drove.

Arizona kept pressing her phone, ordering every new designer she comes across.

"ding!, This bag!" She said, ordering the fifth one.

"Can you just stop already?, We've been on the road for just ten minutes and I can't even count the number of shoes and bags you've ordered... please!, Just please!" Yang cautioned.

"Ligament?" She called

"It's Yang" he replied.

"Have you ever bought me a pant?" She said, looking at him while tossing her phone on her Palm.

" How could you say something so ... Vulgar" Yang said and she grinned.

"I own my money!, Seems like I've been too lenient on you these days, I should make you drink aloe vera juice once we get back to the office" she replied.

Aloe vera juice is a drink she specially made, a mixture of juice and aloe vera...f*cking bitter.

Any of her staffs who misbehaves will have to drink three cups.

"No, ok my lips are sealed" Yang held his lips and she scoffed.

She smiled and returned to her phone but noticed the car is not moving.

"Hey what's happening?" She asked the driver.

"Someone is causing commotion upfront" the driver replied.

" Commotion?, On this busy road?" She raised a brow and got her black shades.

" Where are you going?" Yang asked.

" To stop the commotion" she replied richly.

" But....

She's already out of the car before he could finish.

She put on her shades and smirked before starting her stylish walk to the scene.

A woman who looks obviously rich is busy throwing the things of another obviously poor woman across the road, the poor woman is busy begging but it seems the arrogant rich one is not ready.

The rich woman suddenly slapped the poor one and she fell blindly.

Arizona got to the scene just when the rich woman made to throw another thing.

"What's happening here?" She questioned the woman

She brought down her hand and faced Arizona.

" Who are you to question me" she barked.

" Who am I?" Arizona chuckled.

" This worthless thing was selling milkshakes beside this road without taking permission from anyone!, She's destroying the face of Korea!" The woman shouted at Arizona's face.

" Stay back!, You smell gross!, Was your perfume made of garlic?" Arizona fanned her nose with her hand.

" What!" Mrs garlic-scent replied shockingly.

"So because she was selling her wares beside the road, you started tossing it away, do you know if this is her only way of living?" Arizona said.

" I don't care!" Mrs garlic-scent said and kicked the poor woman with her heels.

Arizona turned Mrs garlic-scent to herself and slapped her soundly, making everyone gasp.

"She's Mrs Yeji, the chairwoman of Gold group" Yang whispered behind her.

" Oh really?" Arizona said and slapped Mrs Yeji on the other cheek.

"Arizona!" Yang cautioned but she slapped Mrs Yeji again and again till she fell.

"How dare you!" Mrs Yeji said, her eyes red already as a result of the slaps.

Arizona pulled the poor woman up and wiped her tears.

"Yang, one of my debit cards" she said.

Yang gave her one and she gave the woman.

"004, spend it judiciously" she said .

"Huh?, For me?, gamsahamnida!, Jungmal gomasseumnida (Thanks, I'm very grateful)" the woman said and Arizona smiled as she walked away.

Mrs Yeji spranged up.

"Arizona!, You're going down for this!" She spat.

"So you know my name, I don't know what makes you stupid but whatever it is, it's working perfectly" Arizona replied and left with Yang.

" The battle line has just been drawn!" Mrs Yeji yelled after her

" Arizona, Mrs Yeji is old enough to be your mother how could you" Yang whispered beside her.

Arizona stopped and turned back.

"Why didn't you tell me that earlier" she said and walked back to Mrs Yeji.

Yeji smirked.

"Here to apologise?" She glared.

"No, to complete your dose" Arizona smiled and slapped her again.

" Arizona!" Yang gasped.

HAESUNG UNIVERSITY**

ENGLISH DEPARTMENT**

"That'll be all for today, let's call it a wrap" the cheerful lecturer said, packing his books.

" Yes sir" the students chorused.

Vince took his two books and stood.

His jean is faded, same as the shirt he's wearing, his sneakers are far from good but his face is handsome.

"Are you going already?, We still have one class left" Chrissy said beside him.

Chrissy is a rich girl... everyone in the school is rich except him.

He's here on scholarship right from his year one till now cos of his extreme brilliance.

Chrissy is his only friend.

"I won't be able to wait, I have to go work part-time" he replied.

"You got an additional one?" She asked, standing up.

" Yeah" he replied.

"You have three before, plus this additional one, making four, Vince the stress" she said, holding his arm.

" I wasn't born with a silver spoon like you, I have to work to support my junior brother and mum" he replied.

" But I can help, I can give you a black card and you won't have to work again" she offered.

She offered that several times but he has always turned her down.

"Can you borrow me your new textbook?" He asked, ignoring the question.

"Of course" she replied and quickly brought it out.

He took it and made to go but she held him still.

"I'll give you a ride, lemme drop you" she said.

"No, you should stay for the last class so I'll get the note from you tommorow" he said and she let him go reluctantly.

" Ok, see you!" She said.

He left class and Chrissy inhaled before sitting.

"Just how many part time jobs will he do" she muttered.

Vince was still walking out of school when he bumped into Summer.

Summer is the daughter of the owner of the school so she always gets away with anything she does, good or bad.

She has never tried doing good though.

"Hey golden boy" she said, touching his face but he stepped back.

He tried taking another way but she blocked him again.

"Why don't we click?, Like get closer?" She smiled, trying to touch his face again but he held her hand.

She moaned b*tchily and smiled.

"I love your touch, how I wish it was on another place, my b**bs" she winked.

"You have a lot of money, buy some dignity if possible" he glared and threw her hand off before leaving.

Summer chuckled, watching him till he left her sight.

"You belong to me... Vince" she smiled.

Vince hasn't gotten out of the school when his phone rang.

He brought out his phone ... The screen is filled with cracks already.

It's Blaze calling, his junior brother.

He picked quickly and Immediately heard struggling sounds

"Hyung!" Blaze's voice said urgently.

"What's up?" He asked quickly.

"The house owner is here, threatening to throw us out" Blaze replied.

" Where's mum?" He asked.

" She's trying to beg but Mrs Yun is not ready to listen!" Blaze said.

" I'll be there" Vince replied and hung up.

He stopped a taxi which drove him home.

He got home and truly the house owner, Mrs Yun is not smiling.

"It's been six good months!, Six months since you losers payed your rent!, I'm not running a charity organization!, It's my house and you need to pay!" She ranted.

" Mrs Yun... please...." Vince tried to beg.

" Don't beg me I'm tired of it!, People will think I'm wicked if they see me shouting like this,not knowing you guys are the real devils!" She yelled.

" We're sorry, I promise to pay up before the end of this month, I promise" Vince pleaded.

" You better!, If you don't!, I'll throw you guys out!, Seems you guys were cursed with poverty!, Find a way to lift the curse and pay me my money! " She said and left angrily.

" Mum you didn't shout with her did you?, You know it's dangerous for you" Vince said, holding Alena.

" I didn't" she smiled sadly.

" Hyung" Blaze said.

" Stay with mum, I need to go work right now" Vince said.

" I need to go work too, I got a part time job too, you can't be the only one working" Blaze said, putting on his worn out shoes.

"I told you to just focus on reading, you're resuming school tomorrow remember?" Vince protested

" Bye mum!" Blaze smiled, rushing outta the house.

" Let him be, you know how stubborn he can be" Alena said.

" I'll be on my way too" Vince said.

" Alright" Alena smiled as he left the house too.

ARIZONA'S FASHION INSTITUTE**

All her staffs and students bowed in greetings as Arizona walked in.

The video of what she did to Mrs Yeji is trending fast but as usual, she cares less.

Yang led her into her office where Mr Kevin is waiting.

Mr Kevin is the manager of Zanillia

Zanillia is a multibillionaire in China, she's currently in need of a new fashionista for her dresses.

Arielle and Arizona are both struggling to get her attention so it's like survival of the fittest.

Anyone who gets the contract will surely become more popular.

"Hey Mr Kevin" Arizona sat in front of him.

"Miss Banks" he smiled naughtily.

Yang excused them.

"The showcase is next week, I need you to tell me Zanillia's preferences" she said and Kevin smiled.

" Nothing goes for nothing" Kevin smiled

"If I get you right, you want something in return" she replied.

" You're just as smart as you've been described, well yes" he replied.

"What do you want?" She asked and he stood.

He walked to her and stood behind her.

She suddenly felt his hands on her shoulders, caressing it.

"You" he whispered and she smiled.

She licked her lower lip slowly.

"Me?"

"Yes you, a night is ok" he replied, still caressing her shoulders.

Her expression suddenly changed and she grabbed his arm, twisting it hard.

"Aarrgh!!!!" Kevin screamed in pains.

Arizona stood and flipped him across her shoulder.

He landed on the ground heavily, his tailbone almost breaking.

"Snake!, Freak!, You want me?, Hahahaha!, How funny, you?, You must have been born in an highway cos that's where most accidents happen" she glared.

Another look at his shoes, she pulled them off his legs.

"No!...my shoes!" He shouted.

Yang rushed in and his eyes widened when he saw Kevin's position.

"Arizona!, How could you take his shoes, he can't possibly walk out with only his socks, what did you do to him?" He said, facing her.

Arizona looked back at the socks on Kevin's legs and smiled like a witch.

"Thanks for reminding me Ligament" she said and went back to Kevin.

She ripped the socks off his legs.

TBC

NEXT DAY, THE BANKS MANSION**

Arizona's limousine made it's entry and she hopped out, looking stern.

The guards surrounding the house bowed as she entered the house.

Rita and Paulson (her parents) are already waiting in the living room.

She removed her shades and settled on one of the couches.

"Cold water" she said and one of the maids got it for her.

She took it and gulped it down slowly before giving the cup back to the maid.

Rita and Paulson kept looking at her in awe.

"Hey" she said and the maid came back.

"An apple, slice it into four pieces" she said.

"Yes miss" the maid bowed and left.

She came with the sliced apple and Arizona took one slice.

She took a bite and faced her parents.

"Good day mum, what's up Dad?" She smiled.

"And what's so good about the day, the whole of Seoul is talking about you Arizona!" Paulson said.

" I love attention... So much" Arizona smiled, taking another bite from the apple.

"Bad attention?" Rita said.

"I'm bad too so ion mind" she replied.

"Why did you do that to Mrs Yeji?" Paulson asked.

" ah, so the press said I slapped her madness out of her, they didn't talk about how she was molesting a poor woman by the roadside" Arizona said.

" Then you burnt the shoes and socks of zanillia's manager after flipping him?, He landed in the hospital, Arizona.....

" I don't want to talk about it, not like you guys can turn back the hands of the clock and even if that's possible, I'll take the opportunity and slap Yeji more than I did and burn Kevin together with his darn shoes and socks" she interrupted.

" You're just like the devil" Rita said.

" I and the devil are besties, we get along just fine" she replied.

" Oh jeez can you just stop? " Paulson said.

Arizona's phone rang and she smiled widely as she picked.

"It arrived?, Cool" she said and hung up.

"Another car? " Rita asked.

" Actually two, I sighted it online yesterday, I bought two different colours" she smiled.

" Two different colors of same car?" Paulson said.

" Yeah, can't wait to see my new babies! " Arizona gushed.

Rita and Paulson exchanged glances before looking at her again.

"My friend's daughter is getting married next weekend" Rita said.

" So?, You want me to be her bridesmaid? " She replied.

" she's twenty two years old" Paulson said.

"How lucky" Arizona said, taking the second slice of apple.

"That's what I'm talking about!" Paulson yelled and the apple fell from her.

"You scared me!" She held her chest

"You're twenty five, yet all men are still snakes, you're still classifying men according to their species in the snake family, till when are you gonna do this!" Paulson said loudly.

" Get married and cry everyday because of a snake?, Ain't doing that, I watch dramas everyday, guys just love making girls cry"

" And that's where the problem is coming from, Dramas!" Rita said

Arizona's phone rang again and she stood, walking around as she picked.

"My cruise ship?, Jeez I can't wait to see it!" She said and hung up

" You have three cruise ships" Paulson said.

"I got tired of them, I need to go see my new babies" she took her bag.

"Are you only gonna drop this philosophy when Adam gets married?" Rita said.

" Oh by the way when is that brat returning from America?" Arizona asked.

Rita fell heavily on the chair.

"It's over" she muttered.

Cassidy came downstairs, dressed for school.

"Mum I need a personal maid" she pouted, strapping her backpack.

"You can just choose one of the maids" Rita replied.

" No I want a new one, specially hired for me" she curved her lips.

" Am I invisible?, Why aren't you saying your greetings?" Arizona said.

" Personal maid, mum make sure you get me one, bye mum!,see ya later dad!" Cassidy waved, leaving the house.

" That little.... come here brat!" Arizona shouted, going after her.

" Hypertension knocking" Paulson sighed.

FLOWERS HIGH**

Blaze inhaled hard when he got to the front of the school.

He smiled widely, finally he's in his dream school, thanks to scholarship and his brilliancy.

"Hope I'll survive in here" he said and proceeded in.

👥 New boy!

👥 Oh my!, Oh my!

👥 His face for me!

👥 He's handsome!

Girls started drooling over him Immediately as he walked past the hallway.

Cassidy stood by the door of the hallway with her mates, watching him

She smiled knowingly.

"I really shouldn't do this but my brother is more handsome" she said.

" Everyone knows sociopathic miss Arizona is your only sibling" one of the girls said.

" Adam's identity has always been hidden cos he grew up with our grandma in America, here" she said, showing them a picture of him on her phone.

👥 Is he human?

👥 He's strikingly beautiful!

👥 His dimples!

👥 When is he coming to Korea?

👥 Will he attend this school?

👥 I love him already lemme have his number

"My Adam or the new guy?" Cassidy asked.

"Your Adam!!" Everyone chorused and students started paving ways again as Havana appeared.

Havana is the prettiest and the most popular girl in the school.

She's an influencer and a popular TikToker.

She's on her phone as usual, snapping pictures and making videos as she walked in.

Guys wished to be the ground she's walking on, they're dying as she walked past them, she's currently making a video.

"Hi guys!, I'm just getting to school and I'm hoping to have a nice day...." She said and looked at the junior girls.

She pulled Cassidy to her side, making her gasp in shock.

"The prettiest junior girl in Flowers high, say hi to my viewers" she said.

" Hi!, I'm Cassidy Banks!" Cassidy smiled.

" Thanks, I love you!" Havana said and walked away, still continuing her video.

Cassidy held her chest.

"She touched me, senior Havana touched me!,, the most popular girl here touched me!, I got featured in her video, she told me she loves me!, Even if I die right now, I have no regrets, I've accomplished my dreams...gosh I wanna die!" She gushed happily.

Another loud uproar made everyone start giving comments again.

It's Avery....the second most popular, Havana's enemy.

She's also an influencer and a TikToker like Havana but Havana is more popular.

Avery is arrogant!, She can do anything to get what she craves.

She's making videos as she walked in too but everyone is avoiding her, she hates when anyone pops up in her videos.

Step on her, you're dead.

"It's your S*xy Maniac again!, Hi guys!, I'm currently stepping into school....

Cassidy smirked.

"Senior Havana is the best!" She shouted.

Avery stopped and looked back at her dangerously.

"Senior ... Havana....is...the...best" Cassidy winked and entered the class.

" I'll break her bones someday" Avery smirked and angrily ended her video before stepping into the senior class.

All the girls are busy staring at handsome Blaze.

"Newbie?" She wondered and took her seat.

Havana is sitting beside Blaze coincidentally.

"The new scholarship student?" She asked.

" Yes, Blaze Mendelssohn" he smiled.

" Nice to meet you, my name is...

" Havana Smith, I heard students chanting it when you came in, you must be quiet popular" he interrupted and she smiled.

He concluded immediately that her smile is the most beautiful thing he has ever beheld.

"Well...yes, they say I'm the most popular and the most beautiful here, I'm into TikTok and I'm a social media influencer" she said.

" Oh, cool" he smiled.

" You must be very very brilliant, that's the prerequisite for getting scholarship to this school" she said.

" I am" he replied and she extended an hand.

" Friends?"

" Sure" she took her soft hand and Avery scoffed.

" She's seducing him well" she said, rolling eyes at Havana.

*******

KRYSTAL GROUP OF COMPANIES**

Arizona walked in, jumping happily on her heels.

"What should I buy next?, An helicopter?" She giggled and gasped.

"The drama would have started jeez!" She said and made to grab the remote but when she saw the pile of documents on her desk, she stopped.

"Ligament!" She shouted and Yang rushed in.

"Who's supposed to work on all these?" She questioned.

" You " he replied.

" Me?, How come it's this much?" She scowled.

"You're just coming to work by 10:30 so you should expect much" he replied.

She fell on her chair.

" I won't be able to watch my favorite drama today all because of this darn documents!"

" There's a conference one hour from now so you have to be done with the documents before then" Yang said.

" One.. one hour?"

" Yes, and tommorow is the seminar at Haesung University, the one you were invited to give English students" he said.

Arizona held her head.

" Get out" she said.

" Take it easy"

"Get out snake!" She yelled and he rushed out.

She started working on the documents, not looking up for once.

She picked out one and smirked.

"Ligament!" She yelled.

Yang rushed in.

"Who typed this" she held up the paper.

"Secretary Ming" he replied.

" Get her for me" she replied and Yang left.

Ming came in afterwards.

" Ma'am" she bowed.

" How could you make a typo in this kind of document?, You didn't eat breakfast?" She glared.

" I'm sorry ma'am, I was rushing to get it done and...

Arizona stood, Ming understood immediately.

"No ma'am...no no I'm sorry".

She went to the freezer and got the devilish bottle and a cup.

She poured the first cup and gave it to her.

"I don't want to!!" Ming said.

"Then you're fired" Arizona replied and Ming quickly took the cup of aloe vera juice from her.

She closed her eyes and gulped it.

"Urrhh!!" She grunted at the bitterness.

Arizona poured the second cup.

Yang came in.

"She got caught" he muttered.

Ming drank the second cup and screamed, her throats making weird sounds.

Arizona poured the third one and Ming almost cried.

"I'm sorry ma'am"

"Complete your dose, aloe vera helps body freshness" she said, giving it to her.

Ming gulped the third cup and ran out of the office, obviously to puke her guts out.

"I hate typos, it almost got me ruined last year" Arizona said, returning the juice to the freezer.

" 30 minutes to the meeting" Yang said.

" Stop reminding me!" She snapped.

He held his lips and left the office.

"Ligament!" Arizona called.

He closed his eyes in frustration. "I might just die at 38" he said to himself before going back in.

******

HAESUNG UNIVERSITY**

The second class is already going on when Summer came in, wearing a lot of makeup.

She's wearing an extremely short bum short and the fact that she's curvy made it so tight, then a thin-strapped singlet.

Her heels made her look more s*xy.

"Summer Hwang, this class started thirty minutes ago, why are you just coming?" The lecturer asked.

She smiled and walked gingerly to him.

She pulled his tie and students started murmuring.

"My mum owns the school so it's none of your f*cking business!" She gnarled before letting go of his tie.

She walked to Chrissy who's sitting beside Vince.

"Get up" she ordered.

"Why?" Chrissy replied.

"Are you questioning me now?, It's my mother's school, you wanna get rusticated?" She said meanly

" I have no reason to stand" Chrissy replied and Summer giggled.

" How rich, get up!"

" Stop already" Vince said, not looking at her.

"I wanna sit beside you!" Summer yelled.

"I don't want to" Vince replied flatly, finally looking at her.

Summer breathed.

"Stop looking at me that way!, It'll only make me want you more!" she snapped

" And you Chrissy, get ready cos I'll so deal with your crap!" She said and stormed out of the class, her @ss bouncing as she walked.

Chrissy smiled, looking at Vince.

He just defended her which is so rare of him.

He rarely talks, he ignores everyone totally, it's still surprising that he talks to her.

He's cold but maybe she likes it like that.

The class finally ended and students started departing.

"Are you coming for Miss Arizona Banks seminar tomorrow?" Chrissy asked.

" I dunno" he replied and brought out the textbook she borrowed yesterday.

"Here, thanks" he said.

"No keep it, I bought another one" she quickly said but he placed it on her hand.

" I hate free things" he said.

"Vince ....

" I'm leaving" he said and left the class.

She turned back and stared as he walked.

Her eyes caught his sneakers.

"It's worn out" she said.

******

H_HEY RESTAURANT**

Highschool girls filled up the whole restaurant, they have foods on their table but they're not eating at all.

They're staring at the handsome server, Vince.

More students are still lining outside, waiting for their turn to come in.

It's the daily routine in the restaurant, girls are the main patronizers all because of Vince the handsome server.

👥 Cute!

👥 His pouty lips!

👥 I love hairy guys like him!

👥 Those full brows!

👥 The beautifully sculptured nose!

Many are snapping his pictures too.

He dropped a tray of food on the next table and all the girls gasped.

👥 His biceps!

👥 Whoa!!

It went on till past 4 when it's time to go for another part-time job.

He took off his apron and faced his boss.

"I'll be on my way" he said.

"About your house rent you told me about, I'll give you tommorow, your advance payment" the boss said.

He only bowed and left the restaurant only to meet Summer outside, standing beside her car.

"Hey handsome!, I'll give you a ride" She waved, smiling seductively.

Vince ignored her and started walking away.

She ran to him on her heels and held him

He broke free and glared before walking away again.

"Ya!, ya! Vince!" She shouted after him, stumping her foot on the ground.

******

NEXT DAY, HAESUNG UNIVERSITY**

Arizona came down from her car and sighed.

She smiled and adjusted her black shades.

"I graduated from Oxford, first class, that's why I wasn't surprised when I got the invitation for this seminar, I deserve it" she said and faced Yang.

" Don't you think?" She said.

" Of course, just don't think of buying the students" he replied and she smirked.

She started her usual stylish walk into the school with Yang beside her.

👥 Miss Arizona Banks!

👥 The psycho beauty!

👥 Did you see the video of what she did to chairwoman Yeji yesterday?

👥 I love her!

👥 I wanna be like her in the future.

👥 My role model!

Arizona removed her sunglasses immediately she stepped into the right block.

"Welcome miss" the head lecturer of the English department bowed in respect.

"The class" she replied and she was shown the way.

She entered the full class and the students stared in admiration.

Well except one, Vince is busy jotting in his note.

"Miss Arizona Banks!" A student gushed.

"Thanks for introducing me, Arizona Banks, a first class graduate of Oxford, I studied English as one of my majors and that's why I got a special invitation to expand your knowledge of English" she said and everyone clapped, except Vince.

" She's so cool" Chrissy smiled.

"Straight to bussiness, let's start with the components of language" Arizona said.

Yang just finished projecting on the white board.

"As you can see, there are five which are; phonemes, morphemes, context, syntax and lexemes" Arizona said and Vince looked up.

" Wrong" he said and Arizona gasped.

"What!'

" The ones you mentioned are just the main five, there are actually eight... including grammar, pragmatics and semantics" Vince said.

Arizona scoffed.

" Are you correcting me now?"

"No rule says a student can't correct a wrong person" he replied casually.

" Wrong?" Arizona said shockingly.

No one has ever used that word for her.

" I simply corrected" he said.

"Correct me?, Who are you?, Who the hell are you!" She said, walking to him.

Vince stood.

" Where are you going?" Chrissy asked.

" I got tired of her seminar" he replied and started walking out but Arizona blocked him.

" It's my seminar, sit!" she ordered.

He took another way but she blocked him again.

"Sit!" She ordered.

"You should do that instead, you're breathing heavily" he replied.

" Ya!!!!" She shouted and grabbed him.

They both suddenly appeared at the edge of a cliff.

"Apologize!" She demanded.

"I have no reason to" he replied flatly.

"Beg me!" She yelled.

" I don't want to" he replied.

" Then leave" she said and pushed him.

He fell off the cliff and she woke up from her imagination.

It's actually an imagination.

"You're nothing but an arrogant snake!, a f*cking anaconda!" She said to his face.

Everyone laughed out loud.

"Then you should know an anaconda swallows, I might just do that" Vince replied and brushed past her , leaving the class.

Arizona seethed with anger and her neck veins stood out.

"Ya!, Anaconda!" She shouted, rushing after him.

TBC

Ya!, Anaconda!" Arizona shouted after Vince, rushing out of class but he's gone when she got out.

Yang appeared beside her and hesitated before talking.

"Why don't we continue the seminar" he whispered.

She turned her burning angry eyes to him immediately.

"I mean... Why don't we go back to the institute" he said.

Arizona stormed out of the place, walking so fast on her heels, imagining Vince as the ground she's marching roughly.

Yang went back to the class and got the laptop.

"Seminar cancelled" he said to the students and left the class, rushing after Arizona.

"I'm wrong?, How dare he!" Arizona said in a rush as she continued walking, finally getting to the park.

Without waiting for Yang, she opened the door of the driver's seat.

"Get out, I need to drive myself" she ordered the driver.

"Drive yourself?, But miss....

" Get out! ' she yelled and he literally jumped out of the car.

She got in and zoomed out of the school.

Yang finally got to the park, breathing heavily as a result of the run.

"Where's Arizona?" He asked.

"She drove herself" the driver replied and Yang smiled.

" This is not the time to try out your comedy skills, you're not funny" Yang said.

" I'm for real, she told me to get out of the car and she drove off all by herself.

"Really?"

"Yes" the driver replied and Yang bent down.

"Congratulations to all the coffin sellers in Korea, good sales is coming their way today, I bet half of the people in Korea will die" he said funnily and stood.

" That brat can't drive!!!, She can't drive!!!!" He yelled at the driver.

"I know' the driver replied and Yang scoffed.

"You know but you allowed her to drive herself?" He said, hitting his forehead on the driver's own.

" Ah! Ah!" The drive winced.

"Get to the road now and trail her with a taxi!" Yang yelled.

*******

Arizona has no idea about the shitty buttons in the car but she just did it the way she saw in dramas.

She's not following the traffic rules and over five police cars are behind her, telling her to stop but she's not even hearing them.

All she's seeing in the road is the arrogant anaconda which she needs to crash into.

"Who does he think he is,I don't like that look on his face when he was talking to me, I hate it!" She seethed, stepping on the accelerator again.

The car sped crazily down the road and those who are still interested in breathing jumped out of the road as she drove past.

All the cars coming in from of her avoided her and many cars got scratched.

"I want to pull out his tongue and just....geez!"

She ranted loudly.

The car started producing smokes and suddenly stopped.

Car destroyed.

"He made me destroy my red car" she said and came out of the car.

When she saw how messy the car has became, she rested on the trunk.

"My red baby!!" She shouted.

"I'm gonna miss you!!"

A taxi stopped beside her and Yang came out with her driver.

"Get in, the cops are coming!" Yang said.

"I need to mourn my red baby very well" Arizona replied.

Yang pulled her into the taxi and removed the plate number of the red car before getting into the taxi too.

They drove past the cops, escaping narrowly.

"The company or institute?" Yang asked.

"Institute" she replied, picking her phone.

She ordered another red car immediately.

They got to the institute and she went in fast, ignoring the greetings of everyone.

"What's up with miss again?" Ella ( her best student in the institute) asked.

"She's not in a good mood now so caution" Yang replied and Ella nodded.

Yang entered Arizona's office and met her pacing around, muttering anaconda from time to time.

"Get me his details from the head of English department" she ordered.

"They aren't allowed to give out information about students" he replied.

" Do you have a death wish?, Try first!" She snapped and he tried.

" True, they aren't allowed to give out students information" he said after dropping the call.

Arizona continued pacing around.

"We have to start working on miss Zanillia's design, the showcase is drawing near and near" Yang said.

Arizona finally sat.

She closed her eyes, took a deep breath and opened again.

"Which design did I choose from the one I drew?" She asked.

" Design 2" he replied.

She pressed a button on her table and the table started going down together with her chair till she landed in another room, full of already designed dresses and untouched materials.

Then electric sowing machine and other expensive equipments.

"Get me Ella, I must be done with this design four hours from now, cancel all my appointments till 1" she said.

" Alright" he smiled and left the place.

ARIELLE'S FASHION INSTITUTE**

Arielle is currently on her tablet, staring at the video of what Arizona did to Mrs Yeji yesterday and how she burned Kevin's shoes and socks, then what happened at Haesung University some hours ago.

She smirked and looked up from the tab.

" She keeps surprising me and anytime this happens, it makes me wonder if she's the same girl I knew fifteen years ago at Unicorn elementary school" Arielle sighed and dropped the tab.

" Now that she treated Zanillia's manager badly, let's see how she's gonna get the contract, that sick psycho, I wonder what made her richer, I hate her!" She said hatefully.

Her secretary came in with her coffee and she took it from the tray before standing.

She drank from it but spit it out Immediately.

The secretary started shaking.

"Are you tryna sacrifice my tongue to some spirits?, How come it's so hot!" She yelled.

" You told me to make it piping hot" the secretary replied and Arielle poured the coffee on her face before smashing the cup on the ground.

"So because I said piping hot, you decided to destroy me huh?, Do you have plans to kill me and inherit my properties?, Hell no!, That'll never happen!, You'll remain poor forever you pauper!" Arielle ranted.

" I'm sorry ma'am I'm...

"You're fired" Arielle interrupted

" Ma'am I'm sorry I won't make such mistake again and...

Arielle threw her bag that's on the table at her.

"Get lost!" She shouted and she rushed out.

"They make it so hard to breathe normally" Arielle breathed heavily and her manager ( Bing ) came in.

"Bingo I don't remember inviting you" she said hotly.

"I already told you to stop calling me Bingo!, It's Bing!, Bing!" He yelled.

" Blame your name for sounding weird" she scoffed arrogantly .

" Post a vacancy for another secretary, I'll interview them myself, and find someone to clean this mess on the ground" she said, walking to a glasshouse.

She pressed a button and it opened, revealing a white gorgeous dress.

It's what she made for the showcase, she has finished work on it since two days ago.

"I can't help but admire it" Bing said.

Arielle touched the gown and smiled arrogantly

" I'll be getting Zanillia after the showcase, no doubt" she said and closed the glass before starting to walk out of the office.

"To the company, I'm done here for today" she said and Bing followed her behind.

*******

FLOWERS HIGH**

It's lunch time and students can be seen loitering around.

Blaze remained in the class though, no money for lunch and even if he has, he'd rather keep it for his mother's drugs.

The class is empty cos everyone left for lunch already so he just sat and read.

Havana came into the class with a ring light and her phone holder.

"Blaze you're not going for lunch?* She asked.

" I don't eat lunch, what about you?" He asked.

" This is my lunch" she replied, setting her phone on the holder before pulling down her skirt.

Blaze quickly covered his eyes.

"What are you doing!'

"You have a dirty mind" she giggled and he slowly took his hand off his face.

She truly took off the skirt but she's wearing a short jean beneath.

She pulled off her shirt too, revealing a pink singlet.

"I get to do my afternoon videos during lunch when no one is in class but today I have you" she winked and he smiled.

She put on the ring light and played the song she'll be dancing to before starting the dance.

Blaze blinked several times, those who say she's beautiful are f*cking right...she is.

"Whoa" he said, staring hard.

She ended the video and put off the ring light before coming to him.

"My lunch video is coming soon but before then meet my seatmate in class, Blaze" she said, bringing the camera to his face.

"Say hi" she whispered.

"Annyeong!, Blaze is my name!" He waved and Havana smiled.

" He's handsome right?, If you wanna see more of him, keep following my page and invite more followers, video in a bit!" She said and smiled more widely when she saw comments about Blaze

Everyone is saying he's handsome and hot, her comments increased.

Blaze kept staring and when his eyes caught her bare fresh thighs, he quickly looked away.

"Oh no" he whispered.

Avery is watching from the window behind.

She gave a sour face before walking away angrily.

HAESUNG UNIVERSITY**

MRS HWANG'S OFFICE ( OWNER OF THE SCHOOL)**

Vince is standing in front of her, looking indifferent but the woman is obviously angry.

"Vince I wasn't expecting this from you, you should know this as the brightest English student, we did a lot before we were able to persuade Miss Arizona to come for the seminar but you ruined it perfectly" she said.

Vince kept quiet, still looking indifferent.

"You need to go apologise to her else your scholarship will be terminated" she said.

" I was just.... correcting her' he said flatly.

"Correcting a first class graduate of Oxford?, Bravado!, Just go apologise if you still love to be a student here" she said.

He bowed and left the office, meeting Chrissy outside.

"How was it in there?" She asked quickly.

"She told me to go apologise to her else my scholarship will be terminated" he replied.

"Then do that, I'll follow you" she said.

"I have to start going now" he said.

"I'll follow you to your part time jobs today" she said.

"Why?' he asked.

"I have nothing to do at home if I leave now, I'll just wait till you're done with the four then we can go home together" she replied.

He started walking away and she smiled.

"Wait for me!' she said, rushing after him.

******

9PM, THE MENDELSSOHN'S HOUSE**

Vince came down from Chrissy's car and she did same.

"Thanks for the ride" he said.

"This locket" she said, looking at the necklace on his neck.

The pendant is a shinny locket, it's beautiful.

"What about it?" He asked, touching it

"You seem to treasure it a lot, it's always on your neck, whose picture is in the locket?" She asked.

" Who knows" he replied and she smiled.

"I knew you won't tell me, i have something for you" she said, bringing it out of the car.

She placed the big box on his hands and quickly got in the car.

"Bye!" She waved, driving off.

Vince went in with the box and Blaze snatched it from him immediately.

"What's in?" He asked.

"I dunno" Vince replied, dropping his books before going to Alena.

He hugged her dearly.

"Did you use your drugs already?" He asked.

"Trust me" she smiled, pecking him.

"My boss at H_HEY gave me two months advance payment, we can pay two months rent for now then we'll deal with the remaining four later" he said.

" Sneakers!" Blaze gasped after opening the package.

"I wish it's mine!" He gushed.

"You can have it" Vince said.

" Really?" Blaze gasped.

" Yes"

" Thanks big bro!".

"Who's it from?" Alena asked.

"A friend" Vince replied and checked her drug envelope.

They're left with just ten of it.

"How do we get money for another pack of it before ten days" Blaze said.

"I'll take care of it" Vince replied.

" A friend informed me about a job she found, I have to be the personal maid for a girl, I think I should try it out" Alena said.

" You're not allowed to work with your condition" Vince said.

" I want to" she insisted.

"No mum" Vince replied, going in.

Blaze tried out the sneakers and smiled, remembering Havana's face.

The angelic smile and charms.

Vince got into the room he shares with Blaze and took off his shirt.

He walked past the mirror but he came back.

He looked at the necklace on his neck and touched it.

"Is she still in Korea?" He thought, remembering her face.

The face of the helpless girl at Unicorn elementary school fifteen years ago.

He rubbed the necklace repeatedly.

"I miss her" he whispered.

*******

ARIZONA'S MANSION**

The right description for it is an heavenly castle.

Most of the decors are pure gold and diamonds.

Most pools have blue water but the pool has peach coloured water instead cos it's her favorite color.

It has a large number of guards guarding it every minute.

Maids are numerous and she has a lot of drivers who work on shifts.

Arizona came downstairs, wearing a transparent white nightie.

She's holding a cup of red wine which she's sipping from time to time.

She went to the cage beside her study where her parrot is.

She smiled when she got to the cage, her parrot (Pepper) purred.

"What's up Pepper" she smiled, touching it's beak.

She got a memo on her phone, sent by Ligament.

"I have so many appointments tommorow, and....a blind date?" She gasped and quickly dialled Yang's number.

" What's that rubbish you sent?" She queried.

"Your parents told me to add it to your schedules tommorow, you have the date by 8pm and...

"Are you having fun by telling me what I don't want to hear?, I'll have to go sit with a guy and force myself to smile?, Ligament why are you doing this!" She said, clenching her fist.

"Calm down Arizona, you can just reject it and I'll knock it out of your schedule" Yang said.

Arizona smiled knowingly.

" Don't cancel it, I'm in" she said.

"Really?"

She hung up and smiled.

" Let's see how it goes" she said and faced Pepper.

" It'll be so fun!" She said and walked to the living room.

"My best drama is starting now, put on the TV" she ordered and a maid obeyed.

Another maid brought her tissues and popcorn.

"Let's get started" she said, concentrating on the TV.

******

NEXT DAY, 8AM**

KRYSTAL GROUP OF COMPANIES**

"Welcome boss!, Welcome boss!" The greetings of her staffs filled her ears as Arizona entered the company.

"Work hard today everyone!" She said loudly.

"Yes miss!" They chorused.

"The sweet juice is always available if you slack off or make a mistake...ok!" She said authoritatively.

" Yes miss!" Everyone chorused again.

She smiled widely and entered the elevator with Yang.

"Today is a good day, you're in a good mood, wasn't expecting you to smile" Yang said.

" So you came with a bowl to collect my tears?, Huh?, You were expecting me to cry?" She snickered.

" You got me wrong I....

"Enough" she interrupted, smiling again.

They got to her floor and they both came out of the elevator.

"You have two visitors boss" secretary Ming reported.

"Two visitors?"

"Yes, I made them wait in the office" Ming replied and Arizona entered the office.

Her eyes widened when she saw Vince ...he actually came with Chrissy.

"Anaconda" she said.

Vince stood with Chrissy and Arizona smiled with the corner of her lips as he walked to her.

"What?, Are you here to tell me my existence is wrong too?" She said.

Thanks to her heels they're almost same height.

"I was told to apologise for correcting you when you were wrong" he said and she rolled eyes.

" Wrong?, I hate that word" she glared.

He only stared without blinking.

" Thought you're here to apologize" she said.

He brought out a flyer from his pocket and gave it to her.

" What's this?" She said, taking it.

Surprisingly, it's a restaurant flyer.

" Do visit our restaurant, I came to give you that" he said.

" Vince" Chrissy whispered beside him.

Yang giggled.

Arizona looked up at Vince, glaring hard.

"Did you get shot at the head?"
