My Pretty Sweetheart (Arianna)

Chapter 79

Perhaps it was due to the heat from recent days, a thunderstorm broke out outside.

The bathroom was deathly silent. I thought Hendrix was angry which played a part in this. After a while,

I found out he wasn't.

He calmed down and straightened himself. Looking at me, he said, "Rest well."

Then, he turned around and left.

He was really whimsical indeed.

When Monique walked in, I was still in a daze on the bathroom floor. Seeing me in such a deplorable

state, she exclaimed, "Arianna, do you not want to live anymore? Why are you doing this to yourself?

Even if you don't love yourself anymore, at the very least, think of the baby!"

She carried me out of the bathroom. I sat somewhat rigidly on the bed and let her dry my hair.

After a long while, I asked Monique, "Do you think a man will fall in love with a woman because of a

child?"

Monique paused, thought for a moment, and answered, "It's possible. After all, many women would fall

in love with someone they didn't love for the same reason."

That was true, there had been many instances of this.

"But what if the child is gone?" I asked, a little

confused.

Monique was shocked. She was frightened by my response and asked, "What are you thinking about?

It's been two months. You must have the baby. Please don't have any stray thoughts."

I raised a hand to my face, feeling a little frustrated. Recently, I had become easily flustered and

irritable.

Monique dried my hair, put me to bed, and comforted me to sleep.

For the rest of the night, Hendrix had never appeared again. However, the storm rumbled on outside

the window. Monique was afraid that I couldn't fall asleep, so she stayed with me.

It was true that I couldn't fall asleep, but it was not because I was afraid. It was just that I was so

agitated that I didn't fall asleep until the wee hours of the night.

Before I had managed to catch forty winks, I was jolted awake by a phone call.

The sun had already risen, and the sky was bright.

It was Kelsey. She sounded anxious as she blurted, "Miss Reid, Brilliant Audit has already begun their

work with the finance department, but as for Shelley Group..."

"Contact Alford Audit, and pass Shelley Group to them. You will oversee the whole process," I

instructed calmly. I was in a mess, and it would be easy for me to screw things up.

She affirmed and replied, "There is also Advancer Tech, whose operations will commence at the end of

the month. Miss Reid, you may need to prepare

for a business trip in a few days."

I nodded. It was necessary for me to go on a business trip. Hanging up the phone, I was uncomfortable

and exhausted.

I got out of bed to find that Monique had already made an omelet for breakfast. She looked at me and

said awkwardly, "I'm really sorry, I haven't cooked in a while, so I'm a little rusty."

Looking at the burnt omelet on the table, I stifled a laugh and said, "You won't be so cruel to a pregnant

woman, would you?"

She smiled sheepishly, saying, "At least give it a taste."

Gazing at her masterpiece, it was as if I could taste them with my eyes alone. But when I saw her

longing and expectant look, I tried it out of pity.

"How is it? Do you like it?"

Seeing the anticipation in her eyes, I couldn't bring myself to give her a hard time. I smiled and

remarked, "It is half-cooked!" She was really bad at cooking, so I shouldn't compliment her.

I couldn't bear to witness her dejection, so I picked up my bag and headed out.

She followed me from behind and said, "Come back earlier in the evening, I'll cook you some delicious All content © N/.ôvel/Dr/ama.Org.

food!"

Oh, no.

Please, spare me!
