Hate To Love You My Billionaire Lover

Chapter 118: I Have A Dark Phobia



“I just want to go shopping in the town. It’s better for me to accompany this lady.” After two seconds, not receiving any response, Vince added, “Or, she may go shopping with me. It’s boring to do it alone.”

“Fine,” Arianna replied simply. Not only was York surprised, but even Vince looked a bit surprised.

This time, two followers followed them, one driver and the other bodyguard, and they looked very stylish.

The town was antique, simple, and quiet. Old buildings stood side by side against one another. The narrow alleys among them could not accommodate the width of a car. The two got out of the car. One follower followed them, and the other detoured to park the car.

They walked very slowly, and Vince was very cautious every step of the way.

“I can’t walk fast,” Vince explained, “Fortunately, in all the places we are going to visit today, only here is not open to traffic.”

“You should take fewer roads. You can take a wheelchair.” Arianna said earnestly.

“Always in a wheelchair, I am afraid I will forget even how to walk.”

“I’m sorry.” She sympathized with him.

“Doctors also think that it is better to exercise a lot.”

“Oh.” Her sympathy was gone.

The amateur puppet theatre of the town performed “Romeo and Juliet” today, the simplified version. The plot was complete, but a lot of lines were deleted. There were many people at the small theater, most of them parents with children.

Some audiences were very attentive. When both Romeo and Juliet die for love, the two people around them whimper.

When the performance was over, Arianna recalled the small mistakes that appeared in the performance and laughed in a low voice.

“Everyone is crying, and you actually laugh.”

“I would have been sad when I was a child, but now I feel that… these two people are married to the murderer who killed their loved ones. I don’t want to be killed in the end. It’s incredible. If I were Juliet, I would neither commit suicide nor marry him.”

Vince said, “I’ll give you a poem. Love is dear, freedom is dearer. Both can be given up for life.”

Arianna got choked up and went silent.

They visited the town’s boutique shop, toy store, and fruit shop, stayed in a bookstore for a long time and went to the town’s chapel. Vince was a good companion, gentlemanly, understanding, but not too enthusiastic about making her feel uneasy.

Their car was driving slowly on the streets of the town. Whenever Arianna’s eyes stared at a store for more than a second, he would let the driver stop the car in front of the store.

When shopping, he would not be rudely rushed to pay for her, but he was an incredible bargainer. Arianna had doubts but couldn’t help with that.

Arianna began to suspect his memory loss because Vince was able to call out the names of shop owners and clerks and was warmly welcomed by them.

Later, when they played a game of Truth or Dare, Arianna asked, “Did you really lose your memory?”

At that time, they were sitting in a chic small restaurant in the town to eat. On the other table, there were two children playing Truth or Dare, and Vince thought the game was amazing.

Arianna casually said, “I played this game before.”

Vince suggested that they should also play. Arianna agreed. But the two had their own different requirements.

Vince said, “We can’t play the same way as the kids do. Whoever refuses to answer will have to drink a cup of champagne.”

Champagne was more of a drink in this place.

Arianna stated, “Do not ask a particularly boring question.”

“What is a particularly boring question?”

“Such as measurements and weight.”Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

There was some smile concealed in Vince’s eyes. Arianna finally found out that she overestimated his gentlemanly manner. Vince looked at her and said seriously, “A man should not ask a lady a question like that. He will use his eyes to do the work.”

When Arianna asked Vince if he really had amnesia, she looked suspicious. As someone who was suffering from memory loss, he looked too calm.

“Because I can call out their names? I used to have the habit of taking pictures and taking notes. I carefully recorded the places I went to and the people I met.” Vince continued, “Now it’s my turn. We met each other before, didn’t we?”

“No. I didn’t know you before.”

“Then why do you…”

She hurriedly cut him, “The next question is mine. Are you going to suffer from memory loss forever? Will it be regrettable?”

“Miss Jenkins, I think you just asked two questions.”

Arianna drank much more champagne than Vince did because Vince had a few questions he would not answer. Whenever there was a question he wouldn’t answer, he would say, “I don’t remember,” and that was not a refusal to answer. Arianna had no excuse to act like him.

“How old were you when you first fell in love?”

Arianna drank champagne.

“Why did you faint when you first saw me?”

“I have a dark phobia.” She forged a medical term not far from the truth.

“But when you fainted, there was light.”

“Mr. Johnson, it’s my turn to ask.”

After she asked another question, Vince continued his last question, “Because I look very much like someone you know? Every time you look at me, I feel that your eyes have penetrated me, and you zone out.”

Arianna refused to answer, so she drank another glass of champagne. She regretted playing this naive and boring game because she didn’t find any valuable news but sold a lot of personal information.

Arianna hadn’t been on the streets for a long time. And on this exotic land, the sky was blue, the air was fresh, mind easing. After two hours, Vince’s face, which made her dizzy at first, was no longer harsh to her. Arianna finally felt Vince was not exactly like Travis Cooper.

Because of his obvious expression of kindness to her, she thought she could regard him as a complete stranger and a new friend.

In a friendly atmosphere, they played every game on the street together. Arianna made a sand painting using Vince as a model, with a freshness lifetime of only a few minutes in a handicraft shop, while Vince shot balloons in a toy store and won a pair of large cloth rabbits for her, which were too large for her to hold, so she had to give them to someone else. He had very good shooting accuracy.
