My Pretty Sweetheart (Arianna)

Chapter 125

"I'm not avoiding you. It's just that you're still wet," I murmured, feeling a little bit dozy.

Hendrix let go of me and took the bath towel that he had tossed to the side earlier. He handed it over

and said, "Wipe it for me."

"It's dry now," I turned and pulled over the quilt, ready to go to sleep.

He laid down again and put his arms around my waist. "You can wipe me dry next time or every time in

the future."

I suddenly felt a little downhearted, "Hendrix, you feel guilty for me, am I right?" I knew he was getting All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.

close to me and treated me well because of the guilt.

For a dreading long time, there was only silence. I closed my eyes, and my feelings were indescribable.

I couldn't help but ponder that could we rely on guilt for our relationship to go on?

"I won't do that again in the future," he finally replied and kissed me once gently on the shoulder. "I'll

make up for it."

I didn't know what to say.

Time passed by slowly. He held me in his arms, and I couldn't fall asleep. I could hear his breathing,

and based on the rhythm of it, he had most probably fallen asleep.

I turned over and tried to take away his hand on my belly. However, I got caught almost immediately. I

frowned and whispered, "Hendrix, I can’t fall asleep like this.¹'

He hummed in reply.

But he didn't move.

I couldn't help but open my eyes and look at the man who was right in front of me. I said again in a very

soft voice, "Hendrix, I can't fall asleep like this."

"You will be able to sleep once you get used to it," he said. He then opened his eyes too, and his

tiredness was evidenced in his eyes. "Be a good girl and close your eyes. You'll fall asleep in a while."

But he didn't know what he put me through by doing so.

I gave up and closed my eyes. Fortunately, it didn't take long for me to fall asleep.

I didn't well that night and was woken up early by Hendrix. I opened my eyes in a daze and noticed that

he was breathing a little quickly.

Before I knew it, I found that he was using my hand to...

All of a sudden, I came to my senses, "Hendrix!"

After a long time, he carried me into the bathroom and put me down by the sink. He embraced me from

behind and washed my hand. With his voice still husky from earlier, he said, "You can sleep a little

more after this."

I nodded. It was only six in the morning, and I was usually still asleep at this time. After cleaning my

hands, Hendrix put me back on the bed.

Then he gently planted a kiss on my forehead, "Have a good sleep!" After that, he changed his clothes

and went out of the room.

Soon, I heard him starting his car engine from downstairs.

I didn't have enough sleep in the first place. So shortly after Hendrix left, I fell asleep again.

When I woke up again, it was already nine in the morning. As soon as I opened my eyes, Hendrix

called.

I picked up the phone while I was still in bed, "Hello?"

"Are you awake?" The man on the other end of the line seemed to be in a good mood.

"Yes."

"Get up for breakfast, I'll wait for you at the company."

I was taken aback and said instinctively, "I'll eat at home."

"Evan is waiting for you downstairs," he said. Then, a faint knock came from the other end. He must

have something to do. Sure enough, he said after a pause, "I'll be waiting for you."

Then, he hung up the phone.

I laid down for some more time and washed up before going downstairs. Minnie was making tea in the

living room, while Evan was sitting on the sofa, dressed in a suit.

Minnie smiled when she saw me, "Arianna, Master Hendrix has asked Evan to pick you up for

breakfast."

I quickly glanced at the dining table and saw that Minnie didn't prepare any breakfast. I knew in an

instant that Hendrix must have told her in advance.

I nodded and left the villa.

We then arrived at the company.

Evan took me directly to Hendrix's office and poured me a glass of water before leaving. Hendrix was

still in a video conference.

But as soon as he saw me settled down in his office, he got up and walked over to me with a plate of

berries. He put it in front of me, kissed me on the forehead, and went back to his seat to continue the

meeting.

I just woke up not long ago, so I had no appetite. Instead, I sat on the sofa and checked my cell phone

for missed messages. I didn't wait for long before Hendrix finished his meeting.

He came to sit down beside me, "Are you hungry?"
