Chapter 2274
So who was his next target?
Was it the Reid family, the Roberts, or both at the same time?
I gulped in fear. It felt like the temperature around was gradually decreasing. Maybe Hendrix was right, and that Jordan was more frightening than we imagined. Just a slight move might lead us to be controlled by him.
But at this moment, I had no reason to make Aaron stay in the hospital. "Fine, you can leave the hospital and go home to rest. But promise me to come back for all of the appointments. We will solve Emma's issue together, so don't even think of facing this on your own."
Perhaps this was the only way to solve both problems at the moment.
"No problem. Whatever you say." Aaron was so satisfied that even his eyes were smiling. But suddenly, his expression changed as if he thought of something. He was stunned as he asked, "Mullen told me that you met Hendrix today. So have you confirmed your speculations yet?"
After hearing his question, I recalled when Hendrix threw the life-saving syringe coldly.
It was obvious that he was well prepared to inject the drug into Evan's body. Otherwise, who would have brought such a thing with them without any reason?
This was a blessing in disguise. If it weren't for Evan's life being on the line, Hendrix might not have taken out the syringe in front of me and even risked being discovered by Jordan's men. Thus, I was sure that Hendrix was still the man that I loved, and he didn't change at all.
Aaron noticed that I was lost in thought and didn't want to push me too hard either. He patted my shoulder and comforted me, "Arianna, it's okay if you don't want to talk about it, I trust that you can analyze everything and would not let me lose a good sister."Exclusive © material by Nô(/v)elDrama.Org.
Only then did I come back to my senses and smile back to reassure him. "It's not that. I was thinking about something just now."
"Aaron." I adjusted my expression to make myself look more solemn as I said, "We can trust Hendrix."
Aaron's delicate eyebrows frowned in confusion. He didn't react at once but relaxed his expression after being startled for a second. It seemed like he had something in mind. "You mean what Hendrix had done for the past few days were all fake, and he is an undercover agent? Are you sure?"
He was smart enough to know what I meant. I pursed my lips and nodded my head. I had never been this certain about anything before. "I'm sure." "Well." Aaron was being doubtful about what I said. I didn't know what he was thinking about as he didn't express himself clearly.
I understood that we couldn't afford to lose this battle since the Stone family was dragged into it already. It was too risky to put all of our hopes in Hendrix, who had never been sincere with his words for all this while.
If Aaron was still a teenager, he would listen to me and bet on Hendrix for once. But he was an adult and the head of a family. He couldn't be rash and do something without considering the consequences.
That day, he didn't act so cruelly to scare me. But if Hendrix changed, he would go all out and fight him. But even so, he still hesitated when I chose to believe in Hendrix.
Aaron was an extremely clever guy, but he had a weakness of being hard-spoken and soft-hearted.
"Aaron." I suppressed the emotions in my heart, adjusted the coat on his shoulder, and covered the cast on his right hand. I looked down and pretended to continue tidying up his clothes, saying, "This time, you have to think about Emma first. You have done enough for me." "Although all good things
must come to an end, I know that we are different. No matter what choice you make and whether we'll be on the same side, I will always remember that you are my greatest confidence."
Aaron sighed heavily, "I'm not used to you saying these things to me."
I took a deep breath and swallowed all the sorrows, then looked up at Aaron with a confident smile. "Then you have to get used to it because, in the end, the result will prove that my judgment was right."
Aaron smiled and said, "Are you that confident in Hendrix?"
