My Pretty Sweetheart (Arianna)

Chapter 2291

Both of our perspectives and stands weren't on the same page anymore. Arguing further would just be a waste of time. Hence, I tried to explain as much as I could to distract her. "Do you have a better choice, or do you want to just kill me instead? But I'm sure you know Hendrix would never let you go that easily. And what about the Reid family? Could you even bear to see your child coming home and have no choice but to follow a murderer and run away for the rest of his life? Naomi, let's just all take a step back and let go of each other. In the future, you'll understand that leaving Jordan for good would be the best thing that you've done."

Naomi's anger could still be seen clearly in her eyes. She quietly stared at me for a few seconds, and she looked a little cunning. She looked down on my phone and said with a commanding tone, "Call Tobias in front of me now. I want to hear it with my own ears."

I was flustered for a moment and then smiled helplessly. There was no need for her to worry at all. It was just a phone call. I would not go back on my words and lie to her.

Even so, in order to reassure her, I immediately dialed Tobias' number and told him about everything. Then, I even sent him a Whatsapp message just as a reminder.

Naomi looked at the message I'd sent to Tobias, and after noticing that he had read it, her gaze gradually calmed down. But she immediately gave a sharp gaze and stared at me again. She kept her phone, turned around, and got into the car. "This is not over yet."This is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

After saying that, she slammed the car door and drove away.

Perhaps it was because I had the same experience of losing a child before. Hence, when looking at Naomi's reaction, I wasn't angry but felt sorry for her instead.

Only mothers would understand the mixed feelings during the process of looking for her child. Previously, she was forced to participate in Jordan's plan, but hopefully, she would meet the right person who would be right for her in the latter part of her life.

After parting ways with Naomi, I waited for Jordan to appear. But a day had passed, and there was no news at all.

The only thing I could do was to constantly comfort myself, that this was normal, and that Jordan always had different thoughts in mind.

Otherwise, it wouldn't be Jordan anymore.

Even after comforting myself, I still pounced when my phone rang at night, but when I noticed that it was Aaron, I sprained my ankle and fell onto the sofa.

I looked down and saw that my ankle was swollen. I endured the pain and tried to rub on it, then only I picked up the call. "Hello?"

"What took you so long to pick up the phone?" Aaron's voice sounded a little anxious.

Fearing that he would be worried, I adjusted my tone and replied calmly, "My phone was in the room, and I just came up."

"Okay." Aaron wasn't suspicious and naturally changed the topic, "Jordan didn't leave the villa for the whole day today."

"Really?" I tried to push the sofa and helped myself to sit up. "That's something unexpected to hear."

"He would easily get caught in his thoughts, especially when he is planning on something. He must be up to something bad."

What he said was right, but it didn't sound pleasant to hear. I thought of Hendrix's strange behavior the night before and quickly interrupted, "By the way, didn't you get someone to follow Hendrix? Nothing happened to him today, right?"

"My dear Arianna, you should know that he is the safest person in the world now. Jordan wouldn't kill him unless he's sure that you have no feelings for him anymore. So, why worry?" Aaron sounded upset, most probably because he was secretly angry with Hendrix again,

I had no choice but to tell him what happened last night. "He still hasn't replied yet, even until now. How can I not be worried?"

"You are abusing yourself. It's not like you don't know Hendrix well enough. It isn't the first time that he's not replying to your messages anyway. What's there to be nervous about?"

It seemed like insulting Hendrix became Aaron's greatest pleasure as my brother. But I wasn't in the mood to join in. Hence, I pretended to be serious. "Aaron!"

"Okay, I'll tell you. Actually, he did

nothing special besides hanging out

with Lucas and his gang. He went to the Notary Public Office. After that, he stayed at Anne's club and never left"
