Ariana's father will call Anthony to his study. He had known Anthony with Ariana since they where in college and it was around that time Ariana attitudes begins not change.
If it was left to him he won't want his daughter to marry Anthony as that guy have bad influence on his daughter. But due to Ariana behavior in the past five years, no elite family would want their son to marry her. And those that came for her hand in marriage are those that the son is either a disgrace to their family or sick. And he doesn't want that for Ariana.
"Sir, Anthony is here" his secretary bola, told him.
"Let him in, and tell the maid to bring the tea."
Anthony entered the study and saw Richard Camelo sitting on his chair with his glasses while going through some document. He called the meeting when Ariana isn't around so he have a private talk with Anthony.
With looking away from the document, he told Anthony "sit down."
A Maid brought in two hot jasmine tea. That was both Ariana and her father's favorite.
After the maid left, Richard Camelo Ariana's father started the Conversation. He asked "why did You announce the wedding without informing me do first, and from what am hearing you didn't even tell Ariana. Even if Camelo corporation is not in the rise as before I can still take care of my daughter." He spoke with a stern voice even Anthony could feel the Anger in his tone even though the man look calm.
"I was going to tell you after I told Ariana. Besides we are engaged for a long time so I thought it was already expected as sooner or later we will get Married so why can't just make it now and besides it was going to be a surprise for Ariana. Am sorry I didn't inform you about it. My mind was just thinking of how to make Ariana happy."
Anthony will sweet talk Ariana father to allowing Ariana accept the wedding as it will affect the Camelo corporation. The company is not doing well lately so they can't afford to take another hit.
Ariana father didn't agree with him even though the company is not as it used to, doesn't mean he will use his daughter for business gain. Even though Ariana behavior is not encouraging, she is still his daughter from the woman he love the most.
Then Anthony continue to tell him how much he loves Ariana and it only him that will want to marry Ariana as the things she did in the past won't want some good family to want her as their son wife.
Ariana father Richard Camelo,sigh, "fine, I will talk to her but it up to her to accept if she will agree to the wedding or not, I won't force her."
Anthony knew he can pressure Ariana father too much or he will notice he his up to something." I know I was wrong for not telling her about the wedding before announcing it, I thought since we are already together for a long time and we love each other, so, there should not be anything stopping us from doing the wedding."
Ariana father looked at Anthony he just nodded. He didn't know what his daughter see in Anthony that she was so obsessed and will do anything for him. He just pray she is making the right decision and not something that will ruin her later.
Anthony received a call, he then told Ariana father that he will come and see him again before he left.
Ricardo Camelo just wave at him" Go do your things, we will talk later. "
"I just hope he treats Ariana well" he sigh. Thinking of his late wife "Am I doing the Right thing, isabella. Our daughter has grown up and ready for marriage."
"First madam will be Watching over miss from above" the secretary bola said. He has been with Ricard for the longest time and knows what he was thinking.
