My Pretty Sweetheart (Arianna)

Chapter 2281

"You are here too." Naomi held Jordan's arm, looking noble and elegant. My appearance was obviously beyond her expectation.This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.

Jordan's expression was rather peaceful. He was probably immune to this "familiar acquaintance" of his.

I guessed that he didn't want to see me because he was afraid to see my passionate love for Hendrix. It would hurt his self-esteem and remind him that even though they were blood-related, Hendrix was cherished by others. Yet, he was all alone in this world. Even if he died, no one would shed a tear for him.

"I came to look for my husband. What are you both doing here?" I pretended not to know, and my tone didn't sound polite. On the outside, I had to pretend that after Jordan's plan, I had no choice but to stand on the same side as them. But after all, Jordan was the one who destroyed my perfect husband. Of course, I had a reason to act unfriendly.

You would rather offend a gentleman than a villain. Unfortunately, I was not a gentleman. Hence Jordan soon found out that I could compromise, but I could also look down on his actions forever.

Naomi sneered, and her words were full of contempt. "There's no one backing you up, yet you can still be so arrogant?"

"At least that's better than someone who can't even differentiate what's right and wrong, and just ends up losing one's dignity."

Although the Attwood family was not as prosperous as before, they were also strict in terms of attitude and reputation. All of them were upright and educated. Naomi might have forgotten how beautiful she used to be.

Andrea never had anyone teach her ever since she was a child. Hence, it could be said that she didn't have the ability to differentiate between what was right and wrong. However, Naomi came from an aristocratic family and was well-educated. She was born from a peaceful and prosperous family, yet she chose to associate herself with Jordan for the sake of a bad person like Sebastian. She chose to work with Jordan, and this was just pulling her down.

Some people had the chance to live under the sun, yet they chose to work in the dark. Such people were not worthy of sympathy.

"Who has the right to judge whether

I am right or wrong? I might be a bad person, but I took risks for the

children because of both of you. You keep acting like you are right, but you made both me and my mum separate from each other. Is this what you call justice?" Naomi gradually became more furious and was gritting her teeth at every word she said. After saying her words, she calmed down slowly and looked down as if she had seen through the meaning of life. "I don't want to be involved in this justice. Now that your karma has arrived, it has proven everything, hasn't it?"

"Not necessarily." I was unwilling to admit defeat. Hence, I raised my chin and refuted stubbornly.

At this moment, the elevator opened again with a beep sound. Hendrix, Aaron and Emma appeared.

Freya winked at me and noticed that everyone had arrived.

Hendrix was cold as usual, and his eyes stayed on me for less than a second. When he came out of the elevator and saw Jordan and Naomi, he stopped again, looked around from left to right, and said in a muffled voice, "What are you guys doing here?"

"We just happened to run into each other," Freya said, trying to smooth things over.

"Since we happen to meet each other, let's all sit at the same table then." Jordan's voice was soft. Yet, it was like he made the final decision as no one dared to oppose.

Hendrix looked down, and after thinking for a second, he agreed, "Whatever."

After which, he walked past me and Freya, then walked towards the private room. Jordan and Naomi followed closely behind.

When Aaron walked past me holding.

Emma's hand, he gave me a gentle tap on the back of my hand without anyone noticing. It was as if we were really performing an undercover movie. This small action was the signal of us officially starting our act.

Freya, however, saw it with her sharp eyes. She crossed her arms and shook her head jokingly, "You are already on stage, yet you are still so frivolous. This is all a ploy, just a ploy..."
