My Pretty Sweetheart (Arianna)

Chapter 2018

A moment later, Aaron straightened his body and placed his hands into his pockets. He looked at Hendrix with a faint smile on his face. "Free for a chat?"

As he spoke, his almond-shaped eyes seemed to hint at something.

Hendrix looked at me and pondered for a moment before walking into the bathroom. "I'll see you in the study."

He then slammed the bathroom door shut.

Aaron scratched his forehead and walked out of the room.

Twenty minutes later, Hendrix came out. He had changed into his pajamas with his hair slightly wet. He then threw his towel aside before walking out of the door.

"Wait." I stopped him. "I'll go with you."

After that, I turned around and tucked the children in bed before following Hendrix out of the room.

Pushing the door of the study open, we saw Aaron seated on the sofa with a cup of coffee in his hand.

He asked for another cup of coffee upon our arrival. "Someone pour me another cup. Go easy on the milk and sugar. It was much too sweet for me."

He was being oddly vague about things and we had no idea what he was actually referring to.

I signaled to the servants outside and said, "Don't worry about it. You can leave."

Turning to shut the door, I said to Aaron, "Too much coffee is bad for your health, you should drink some tea instead."

"I'm used to it. It's hard to change habits after all." Aaron said carelessly.

Hendrix interrupted with his deep voice, "Research has proven that long term consumption of coffee can cause myocardial disorder, stomach bleeding, nerve tension and other side effects."

"Aren't you exaggerating here? Do you think it's that easy to fool me, like Aurelia?" Aaron said impatiently.

I grabbed the cup from his hand and placed it on the other side of the coffee table. "I'd much rather believe it. You're not that young anymore, do it for the sake of Emma."

Aaron smacked his lips and didn't reply.

"However, if you suddenly stop

taking coffee, it will also result in an irregular heartbeat, inconsistent gastric secretion, tensed nerves and other

negative consequences." seemingly no reason at all.

Hendrix added for

"What was that?" My face fell. Whose side was this man on?Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.

Hendrix sat in front me with a blank face. "Continue drinking coffee, but gradually reduce the amount over time, and know when to stop." Aaron and I rolled our eyes at the same time. He was talking nonsense.

"Well, let's get down to business." Aaron was feeling quite impatient

He asked "Did you come across any obstacles when you went to resign today?"

"I wouldn't call it an obstacle, but it was a success."

Then, we roughly described what had happened at the Roberts Group.

Aaron nodded and said thoughtfully, "So Nathan and Jordan didn't show up?"

This was something that worried me. "Now that the news is out, they'll show up sooner or later," I replied.

I thought about this for a moment and felt that something was wrong, so I asked, "Did your people hear any news?"

Upon hearing this, Aaron's face turned solemn. He looked at Hendrix's direction with distrust in his eyes.

I followed his gaze and was about to explain when Hendrix spoke first.

"Someone had contacted the elders. at Mesville using my name and

that? He leaned on the sofa, looking very calm.

Arianna's. Did you mean to,

When I turned to look at him, Hendrix had already met Aaron's gaze.
