Chapter 205
Hendrix had been strict about my diet in the villa recently. Because of him, I didn't have any cold drinks
for a long time. I was craving it in such weather like this.
"The restaurant is air- conditioned, and I've ordered juice for you. You will feel better after taking a few
sips of it!" As he said this, he gestured to the waiter to lower the temperature.
I rested my chin on my hands, glaring at him, I hissed, "I don't want to eat anymore. I want to go
home!"
However, I was held on the chair by Hendrix. "Evan will send you back after lunch."
I didn't want to argue with him. But instead, I leaned against the table weakly, glaring at Hendrix, and
mumbled under my breath like a child, "Hendrix, I'm not your pet."
Hendrix quirked his eyebrows, and he pushed the juice the waiter had served to the front of me. He
smiled, "Who would keep such a disobedient pet?"
I remained silent. Staring blankly at the empty road outside the window, I suddenly felt that it would be
great if we were able to
be like this in the future.
I imagined my future with him and the child, living a peaceful and fulfilling life together. Sometimes we
would quarrel, but most of the time, our home would be filled with laughter. Truth be told, I wouldn't
complain about it.
As for other things, I should just close my eyes to those that could be ignored.
After the meal, I felt as if I were a pig that Hendrix had fed a lot of food with. If it hadn't been for a call to
his phone, I would have spewed out what I had swallowed from earlier.
Something might have come up at the company. After hanging up, Hendrix looked at me and asked,
"What else do you want to have?"
I shook my head and rubbed my stomach. I was so full to the point that it was uncomfortable. "I'll throw
up if I eat more."
He laughed. "Evan will send you home later. I'm going back to the company for a meeting. Don't
wander around, and go home for a good rest."
I nodded, leaned back in my chair, and motioned him to go ahead if he had something to do.
Evan came as I just walked out of the restaurant. He parked right outside the restaurant and was
waiting for me. I said, "Evan, if you have something to do, go ahead! I'm too full. I want to walk around
to help with the digestion."
He should be busy with work recently.
After some hesitation, Evan nodded and left me a few words. "Be careful, Miss Reid."
As soon as Evan left, I was much more relaxed. It was quite far from the villa, so I couldn't possibly
walk back home. I originally wanted to go back to the company to get my car, but I still felt like hanging
around.
So I simply walked along the street. The commercial street downtown was full of luxurious brand stores
that were well renovated. Then, I remembered that Hendrix's suits were mostly black in color.
I found a men's clothing store, and I entered it.
"Hello, Madam. Are you looking for clothes for your husband?" The shop assistant asked eagerly.
I nodded and looked around. In the end, I picked out two sets of suits, one gray and the other royal
blue. Although they were no match with the custom- made suits in our home, these were still high- end
brands with high quality and great designs.
Seeing that I had picked out two sets, the shopping guide was surprised and confirmed with me,
"Madam, are you sure you are going to take these two?"
I nodded, but I didn't know Hendrix's size. So I took out my cell phone and dialed Hendrix's number.
It took a long while for the phone to be picked up.
"Hello!" It was obvious that a girl had picked up the phone rather than Hendrix.
I was taken aback by the speaker, then after I steadied myself, I continued calmly, "I'm Arianna. Could
you please pass the phone to Hendrix?"
"Hello, Miss Reid. I'm Chloe. Mr. Roberts is in a meeting now. You can leave a message with me. I'll
pass it on to Mr. Roberts later."
I was a bit annoyed. Hendrix had never allowed anyone to take his cell phone. Even if he was at a
meeting, he would bring it with him. At most, he would switch to silent mode. Yet, it obviously wasn't
with him right then. Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g
"It's fine. Just ask him to call me back later," After that, I hung up the phone.
The shop assistant looked at me and asked nervously, "Madam, what size do you prefer?"
