My Pretty Sweetheart (Arianna)

Chapter 431

I pursed my lips and replied in a foul mood, "Stay away from me. I can't fall asleep if you're too close."

"You have two choices. Either we sleep like this, or we close the distance between us. Of course, we

can be much closer than this, yes?" Content © copyrighted by NôvelDrama.Org.

The next day, what had happened to Irvin blew up. The public collectively pointed their fingers at

Nerissa, saying that in order to take over the Granger Group, she had set up a trap targeted at the

three Granger family members.

Three people had died in a row. Other than Yohannes, who died a normal death, Helen and Irvin had

both taken their own lives. There had to be something that no one knew about.

After all, Irvin was the grandson of the Miller family, and the two elders of the Miller family were well-

known people in Jarold City. Now that their daughter and grandson had taken their own life one after

another, the Miller family had used their connections and instructed the police in Jarold city to conduct

a thorough investigations on these two deaths.

This matter had blown up so massively that even if the two Miller family elders did not speak about it,

the police would not leave it alone.

As a result, Nerissa was being investigated, and she was forbidden from making any business

transactions with or associated to the Granger Group.

She was not even allowed to enter the Granger Manor as the police informed her that everything in the

house was considered to be evidence of the potential crime.

Therefore, Nerissa was barred from retrieving almost all of her belongings.

As a result, Nerissa had no place to live, so she had no choice but to temporarily stay at Hendrix's

place. The villa was large, and she lived where the doctors employed by Hendrix used to reside in

since the rooms were now left unused.

I had been watching the TV out of boredom when Kelsey called me,

When Nerissa came to stay at the villa, I couldn't help but wonder if she'd be living in fear of having

caused the deaths of so many people.

Perhaps Nerissa knew of my hostility towards her, but she just narrowed her eyes and didn't say

anything about it.

After all, she was Hendrix's aunt. Even if I hated her, I couldn't do anything to her, so I chose not to say

anything more.

After I answered the call, Kelsey said in a soft voice, "See you at the cafe on the third floor of the

Fortune Center."

After just a simple sentence, she hung up the phone.

She must have had a big discovery for her to call me like this.

After cleaning up, I was about to head out when I bumped into Nerissa at the door. She was wearing a

black coat and a dark green scarf, and her well-groomed face showed a slight smile. She looked at me

and said, "You're heading out?"

I hummed in acknowledgment. I didn't want to talk to her more than I had to.

Suddenly, she stood in my way and looked at me with a sneer. "Who are you rushing off to meet?"

This was obviously an attempt to stir up trouble. "Madam Roberts, is something the matter?"

She raised her brows and said leisurely, "Oh nothing, just wanted to have a quick chat with you. After

all, we are family. We have to get along with each other from now on, don't we?"

I pursed my lips and said, "So, what do you want to talk to me about?"

"Your past with Valerie and Andrea. To be honest, Valerie is a truly despicable woman. She looks

gentle and elegant on the outside, but she's actually malicious. I've never liked women like her.

Moreover, the blood of my grandnephew is on her hands. Speaking of which, her feud with the Roberts

is over."
