Arabella heard the melodious ring of a mobile phone at the other end, and Kenneth answered it before
it rang again. Arabella almost suspected that he had been waiting for her call all the time.
However, Kenneth did not speak after the phone was answered.
Arabella lowered her eyes and asked, "Mr. Lucero, why don't you talk?"
Kenneth finally said in a deep and magnetic voice with slight hoarseness, "I thought you wouldn't call
me again."
Arabella bit her red lips gently. She had not expected him to be so self-aware. She felt too shy to
mention what had happened that night. Finally, she opened her mouth and let out a heavy grunt.
The receptionist standing aside had been looking at Arabella. She didn't know who Arabella was
calling, but she was sure that it couldn't be Kenneth. Then she heard Arabella let out a coquettish grunt
with her head down.
The receptionist thought Arabella was pretty coquettish and felt that she seemed to have a boyfriend or
an ambiguous male friend. As a result, she couldn't understand why Arabella would still throw herself at
Kenneth.
The receptionist hated such fickle girls who kept a back-up very much, so she decided to expose
Arabella when Kenneth came back. From NôvelDrama.Org.
At that moment, an extended luxury business car stopped outside the Lucero Group. Cole, Kenneth's
private secretary, got out of the car and respectfully opened the rear door. Then a tall and handsome
figure quickly jumped into sight.
Kenneth came back.
"Look, Mr. Lucero is back!" The receptionist's eyes quickly lit up like a fervent fan.
Arabella was sitting in the hall, so of course, she noticed what was going on there. The hall door was
pulled open, and the executives of the company, with their blue cards around their necks, rushed out as
if to welcome some big shot.
And of course, the big shot was Kenneth. Arabella quickly turned her head and then saw Kenneth
through the floor-to-ceiling window.
Kenneth had just got off the plane. He was dressed in formal attire, with a white shirt and tie inside, a
dark blue business vest in the middle, and a black tweed coat outside. He looked elegant, dignified,
and distinguished as a business elite.
"Mr. Lucero..."
The executives were about to say something, but Cole quickly interrupted them by raising his hand.
Cole gave them a glance, which meant, "Don't you see that Mr. Lucero is talking on the phone?"
The executives immediately kept silent and were curious about who was calling Kenneth.
When Kenneth heard Arabella's grunt with slight anger and coquetry, he immediately stopped walking.
He did not move, and all the senior executives behind him stopped as well.
Kenneth held his mobile phone, slightly narrowed his gentle eyes, and then said to Arabella in a low
voice, "Mrs. Lucero, I'm sorry about that night..."
Arabella could clearly see his expression now. She smiled lightly and said, "Mr. Lucero, do you always
apologize on the phone after you did something wrong? I can't feel your sincerity at all."
Kenneth's Adam's apple moved, and all his reasonability was telling him not to see her. He said to
himself, "Three days have passed, and I can hold on longer."
However, his big hand hanging by his side clenched, and all his reasonability was defeated by her
beautiful and soft voice. "I'm going to find you now, OK?"
Hearing him ask her with careful tentativeness, Arabella felt her heart ache, like a long and thin needle
penetrating it, which made her feel a lot of intense pain.
She had already guessed the reason why he hadn't come to her in the past three days.
