My Pretty Sweetheart (Arianna)

Chapter 2055

The incident happened not too long ago with Hendrix. He didn't give any comments, but simply acquiesced in silence. It wasn't easy to eradicate the threat that Jordan posed.

Charles was used to such evils. When he heard this, he became irritable. "You mean we can't do anything to that guy? I don't believe it. Even Eddison and those arrogant people have been taken down. It's only been a few years. Could there be another ring leader in Jarold City?"

Probably from his anger, he brashly slapped the rolled up newspaper he had in his hand. He then said seriously, "Although I'm no longer an active member, I still have some connections. Tomorrow, I'll handle this myself. I'll get someone to check out Jordan's background. Nathan's son is bound to have tons of dirt on him!"

Charles was fairly adamant on his plan, and looked very confident. After some time, he finally realized what he had said. He had unintentionally included Hendrix in his snide comment about Jordan. He quickly explained, "I didn't mean that..."

"It's alright." Hendrix quickly ended the conversation and helped me up. "Let's eat. Arianna doesn't have much of an appetite, so we shouldn't delay our meal."

He wasn't a narrow-minded man. He said that it was okay, which meant he didn't mind it at all. Everyone in the family wasn't the type to be offended by such trivial things. As he called the children down, he walked into the dining area.

We were on the other side of the living area. We waited for the elders to walk ahead of us, so it didn't seem strange for us to be left behind. Taking advantage of this opportunity, I whispered to Hendrix, "What are you going to do with Jennifer?"

Hendrix wasn't a ruthless person when it came to his blood relatives. Moreover, Jennifer wasn't incurable. Hendrix wouldn't necessarily deal with her the same way he did with Nathan and his wife.

Even though he heard me, Hendrix didn't even raise an eyebrow. He calmly led me forward and whispered, "I'll carry out my duty as a brother and allow my sister to be happy and healthy, of course."

He was being very vague. I was confused by this and frowned.

Everyone who had dealt with Hendrix knew how much hatred he bore. At the time, to defend her interests, Jennifer had deceived Hendrix and forced him and Serene to do several stupid things.

How was it possible for him to simply resolve this so quickly?

There was a very high chance that he didn't mean a word he had said.

All the men in the world often kept their women guessing. They would always wait for the right opportunity to reveal the truth, showing off their intelligence.

Hendrix was the richest man in the country and had an immaculate persona. But he was just as keen on playing such childish tricks. He was getting too deep into his act.

I pursed my lips and smiled. Fine, I'll play along.

The elderly were used to retiring early in the day. Although Charles was very healthy, he still had to take his medication. He took his medicine at 8 o'clock and went to bed early.

As for the rest of us, we played with the kids on the first floor.

Anne was studying some mathematics and Wynn was finishing up his online class. Only Aurelia and Dunn were making noise. Both of them had grown up abroad and had similar

personalities. Strictly speaking, as parents, we were simply watching over them while enjoying some tea.

When it was almost nine o'clock, Hendrix answered a phone call and was about to head out. "There are several children who have been

station. Evan doesn't know how to deal with this. I will be back soon."

Aurelia was playing with some toys with Dunn a moment ago, but she immediately rushed over when she heard that Hendrix was about to leave She hugged his leg and said, "Daddy, where are you going? I want to come with you!"
