Cinderella And Her Beautiful Octuplets

Chapter 17

“Calm down Hannah, I only taught them to stand up for themselves and let no one step on them. they are the upcoming kings and queens of Mackenzie’s empire, so they need to learn to fight for each other” Arianna said and Hannah sighed softly.

“How was your meeting with Brandon?” Arianna asked and Hannah exhaled deeply.

“It was okay. He agreed to help” Hannah said and Arianna smiled broadly

“Oh my goodness? I knew he wouldn’t say no to you…..” Arianna paused when Hannah gave her a weird look.

“What do you mean you knew he wouldn’t say no?” Hannah asked

“Common Hannah, you are beautiful and irresistible, no man would say no to helping you,” Arianna said And Hannah rolled her eyes.

“He gave me a condition,” Hannah said and Arianna raised her eyebrows waiting for her to continue.

“He asked me to be his wife,” Hannah said and Arianna laughed.

“I wasn’t expecting that,” Arianna said and Hannah shrugged.NôvelDrama.Org owns © this.

“He said he’s willing to help, and in return, I’ll marry him because he needed to find his mother” Hannah Said and Arianna blinked

“His mother?” She asked and Hannah nodded in response. Arianna almost felt numb with what she just heard but then Hannah jolted her out of her thoughts immediately.

“Are you alright mom?” Hannah asked as she noticed the look on Arianna’s face.

“Yeah, of course, I’m okay,” Arianna said and swallowed hard.

“Mom, I’m scared of marrying him. He said my kids i would be moving into his mansion too. I feel so scared. He’s so cold-hearted” Hannah said and Arianna smiled

“He’s gonna take good care of you and the kids. Besides the kids wanted to meet their father, this is an opportunity for you and them” Arianna said and Hannah raised her eyebrows

“He’s not my kid’s father, he can never be,” Hannah said and Arianna swallowed her when she realized what she had said.

“Of course, I know. He isn’t the kid’s father. But he can be a father to them. Hannah, aside from business and all, this marriage might be of great help to you and the kids too, whatever opportunity comes your way, take it like it’s never going to come. I believe this is an opportunity for you to start a new life ” Arianna said and Hannah scoffed.

“It’s just a contract marriage, not like it’s a real marriage and it’s only going to be for a short period, after then we will divorce and go our separate ways,” Hannah said and rolled her eyes.

“Common Hannah,” Arianna said and Hannah sighed softly.

“Fine mom,” Hannah said and Arianna smiled at her. Hannah stared at her mom and began to wonder why she was happy about her and Brandon getting married. She quickly shook off the thought. Of course she would be very happy, it’s every mother’s dream to see their daughter get married.

“Ma’am Arianna, Mr. Reynold is here” Hannah heard a voice from the background speak.

“Tell him to wait, I’ll be with him in a jiffy,” Arianna said and faced her phone.

“Mom, who’s Reynold? Is he your new….?”

“Wtf!!! Hell no. I’m hiring him as my new driver” Arianna said, cutting off Hannah’s speech. Hannah laughed.

During the time she and Arianna had stayed together in New York, Arianna had dated just one man, Davison Ricardo. He was a famous and influential man in New York City.

Arianna dated him because she wanted something from him, but in the end, she later developed feelings for him. but they eventually broke up and no one knew the reason they had broken up.

Arianna had refused to tell Hannah the reason but Hannah knows deep down, It was something bad that could have led to the breakup.

“I have to go now, Hannah. I love you” Arianna said

“I love you too mom,” Hannah said and with that, she ended the call.

“Maybe this is an opportunity for me,” Hannah thought as she dropped her phone on the couch and stood up.

She climbed upstairs to her room, removed her clothes, and walked inside the bathroom to take her bath.

After that, she changed into a simple dress, went downstairs to the kitchen, and helped the maids serve the food in the dining room.

She asked a maid to go call the kids, that Dinner was ready.

The Octuplets and Hannah are seen sitting at the dining table about to eat when Hannah spoke.

“Sandra, you and the maids can join us at the dining,” Hannah said to the cook who is also known as the housekeeper.

“No ma’am Hannah, we are okay. We would eat in the kitchen” Sandra said with a smile.

“No, I insist you all join us,” Hannah said and Sandra nodded reluctantly.

She called the rest of the maids while they sat all together and ate as a family.

Sandra smiled at Hannah, she reminded her so much of young Arianna. She began to wonder if Hannah was the child Arianna had years ago, because the only daughter Arianna had, Cinderella, had died years ago.

Rhoda is seen standing outside the gate in front of a big hotel with her luggage by her side. She wore her shade and wore her face mask so no one would recognize her.

She’s known as the wife of Jeff Mickelson and seeing her at a hotel by this time of the night, people might begin thinking something else.

After Jeff had thrown Rhoda’s things out of the house, Rhoda left and decided to go lodge in a hotel since it was already late and she had nowhere else to go.

On getting to the hotel, she gave the receptionist her card to pay for the room she would be spending the night in, only to find out her card had been frozen.

She had no money left with her. She had to leave. She stood outside the hotel not knowing where to go.

Just then she felt a hand touch her from behind.

She turned swiftly and to her surprise, she saw a familiar face staring at her with a smile on his face. She frowned immediately as she saw him.
