My Pretty Sweetheart (Arianna)

Chapter 2260

"Uhm, why is Hendrix so mean, all of a sudden. Where did he get this attitude from?" Freya didn't know the story behind his change in attitude so she probably thought we were just having a disagreement.

After seeing my non-reaction to her complaints, she walked forward and lightly bumped against me, intentionally throwing a flirtatious wink. "Pull yourself together. Men are everywhere! We are women of a new age, how could we go down just for a man. I'll go with you to get urgent things done first, alright?"

I couldn't help but lower my head in a bitter smile, finding joy in sorrow as I laughed in reply at her joke. "You sweet-talker. If you were a man, who knows how many girls would be corrupted by you."

"Well, I'm all for it." Freya immediately stepped forward and linked arms with me. As we walked away, she said, "Now, let me corrupt you first!" Mullen drove fast and steadily as he avoided the evening rush, the originally half an hour drive only took 20 minutes.

As I rang the doorbell, I felt uneasy during the wait, for no one had yet to answer.

Don't tell me that those people couldn't even let the woman and kids go?

Unwillingly, I rang the doorbell again-ding dong, ding dong - and the sounds of the doorbell had echoed in the corridor. Suddenly, the lights switched on, and a woman's voice called out calmly, "Who is it?"

Finally, the huge burden was lifted off my chest and I sighed, releasing a breath of relief. I immediately scooted closer and said, "Is this Samantha Spencer? I am Arianna Reid, Evan's supervisor. Do you mind opening the door?"

I finished speaking and the door opened, revealing a delicate-looking woman.

Samantha was wearing loose nightwear and her hair was tied loosely with a rubber band, bangs covering her forehead. She had a tall and slender frame but with soft comely features, a face one couldn't help but love. It might be due to the night light, but her face appeared rather pale. Even then, at a glance, both she and Evan looked compatible.

It seemed like she wasn't surprised by my appearance. She politely smiled and nodded her head in greeting. "Mrs. Roberts, Evan has mentioned you before, always saying you take good care of him."

If it was really as she said, it would be the both of them who were welcoming me now.Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

I smiled awkwardly and pretended that I knew nothing about what had happened in the afternoon. I glanced over at the room and asked, "Are the children asleep?"

"Yes." Samantha smiled. "They were tired after a day of playing, so they turned in early."

Realizing that we were standing at the door chatting, she opened the door a little wider and warmly welcomed us in, "Oh, look at what I'm doing. You all should come in. Please, come in and sit, Mrs. Roberts."

"Oh no, it's okay." Initially, I just

wanted to confirm the safety of the

mother and the children. Now that

'n

they were fine, there was no need for me to bother their rest so late at night. thad to come up with an excuse, "I was just nearby your area and thinking about how much Evan has done for my family, just

wanted to come by and see if I can help with anything."

Samantha, who had sobered up a little, smiled gently. "Mrs. Roberts, please don't be so formal with us.

Mr. Roberts has given Evan such et

high pay. It is more than enough for us to solve our problems and live a good life. We couldn't be more grateful, how could we ever dare to trouble you?"

Her voice and her gaze, and even her gestures were genuine, giving off a calm, unflappable aura as though a spring breeze had blown by. I couldn't help but think of Evan's

phone call in the afternoon. The ne!

woman's voice had reflected her rampant fear. Was this really the same person? Or, after going through a situation where you had people breaking into your house, could you recover at such a fast

speed and act as if nothing had ever

happened?

I couldn't think clearly and my eyebrows couldn't help but knit together, but my heart was like a mirror. No matter the reason, it was all good. Evan's wife was stronger than I had expected.
