My Pretty Sweetheart (Arianna)

Chapter 2318

The trolley cart was full, but my heart was empty. I fished out my phone and called Freya. "Sorry, I failed in letting Anne take my advice. If you're not happy working with her, I'll support any decisions that you make."

Freya laughed and said, "Don't be silly. I won't squabble children. Honestly, you could have told me you went looking for her."

"I just don't want the relationship between you both to be stiff." I exhaled and said helplessly.

"It's not that big of a deal. I've seen so many relatives fighting against each other. This kind of thing won't happen in our family. Don't worry. I'll continue to keep an eye on Anne. I guess she's in a rebellious phase. She'll be fine after it's over." Freya didn't take it seriously.

"I hope so." I heaved a long sigh of relief. For a moment, there was no better solution.

"Arianna," Freya suddenly called out.

"What?" I asked.

"Thank you."

I was not just standing up for her but also for Anne. I felt that her gratitude was too much to bear. "Don't be disgusting. I'm not Cyril. I won't be tempted by your sweet words."

"Well, why don't you take me as your master and learn how to charm a man so that Jordan can't escape from you?" Freya began to joke.ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

"He can't escape from my grasp since a long time ago," I said, "But after he left yesterday, I've not heard from him at all. I'm a little worried now." "Don't be anxious. A mouse who has tasted the sweetness of cheese will turn back, even though it knows it's a trap. All you have to do now is wait," Freya analyzed.

"Okay. Do you want to come and have dinner tonight?" I looked at my trolley that was full of ingredients and asked tentatively.

"Are you cooking?" Freya asked.

"Yes, I'll cook," I said firmly.

"Okay, see you tonight."

The dishes on the dinner table were all my hard work in the kitchen. The children tried to keep me happy by asking for more.

As Freya was the guest, Aurelia did not mention anything about Anne.

After a long time, the house finally looked lively.

Late that night, I woke up from the sounds outside the window. I put on my robe then sat by the

window.

There was still fire in the fireplace. Sparks from the fire flew up when the wind w on it. Slowly, they fell

onto the carpet that was enveloped in heat and light, turning into dust.

I thought of moths throwing themselves into the fire but found that it was not an apt or nice thought. The phone on the tea table vibrated.

The grandfather clock chimed four times. Who was texting me so late into the night?

Could it be Hendrix?

Thinking that it might be Hendrix, I got up immediately when I wanted to ignore it just moments ago.

I turned on my phone only to realize it was a Whatsapp message from Tobias.

"Tomorrow, Mr. Roberts will meet Drug Wolf."

"And all thanks to him, I found out that the famous Drug Wolf turned out to be a devastating beauty."

Tobias was only a few words away from saying that Hendrix would meet with a beautiful drug lord the next day.

I typed a message, "Where and when."

Tobias replied very quickly.

"Ten in the morning, in the Grand Nonagon Villa Area."

Have you made up your the conditions that you last time?"

It was not a one-off deal to ask him to give me news of Hendrix for 5% of the value. Tobias was really impatient.

"Not really," I replied.
