Vinson blinked his eyes twice as virtual-novel.net said this and it made virtual-novel.net look harmless.
“Um,” Arielle couldn’t get angry for some reason when virtual-novel.net saw his actions and just lowered virtual-novel.net head to continue eating.
Vinson shrugged before going to the kitchen.
Arielle couldn’t stop virtual-novel.net gaze from following his figure but soon snapped out of virtual-novel.net daze. Patting virtual-novel.net cheeks, virtual-novel.net reminded herself to ignore Vinson for the whole night.
Vinson returned from the kitchen not long after. Arielle didn’t turn to look at virtual-novel.net and kept virtual-novel.net head low as virtual-novel.net continued eating. He wisely refrained from letting his hands wander again this time and attentively sat opposite virtual-novel.net to eat.
Arielle cooked a common dish but it was delicious and tasted like something virtual-novel.net never had.
He took a few more bites just to make sure that it really wasn’t virtual-novel.net playing favorite as virtual-novel.net felt that Arielle’s cooking was better than top chefs.
His thoughts wandered.
Arielle had shown extraordinary skills in hacking, piano, chess, and a lot of other things… Maureen was also powerful and smart but not to Arielle’s level of skills. The man in the picture is sure very exceptional.
It seems that I really need to talk to Mom. She and Mrs. Moore used to be close friends. Maybe virtual-novel.net knows something.
Vinson frowned almost immediately as virtual-novel.net thought of Susanne.
Arielle, who sat opposite him, had already finished virtual-novel.net meal and got up to return to the bedroom.
“Arielle,” Vinson called, but virtual-novel.net ignored virtual-novel.net and continued to walk away.
“Sannie,” Vinson tried again helplessly.
Arielle’s footsteps halted before answering blankly. “I’m done eating so I’m going back to my room and rest.”
“Good…” Arielle had entered the bedroom before Vinson could even say “night”.
“Tsk!” Vinson wore a troubled expression.
Girls are hard to coax.
He then got up and went to the balcony a few minutes later to call Jordan.
Jordan answered the call quickly and virtual-novel.net sounded aggrieved. “Why are you calling me? I’m about to starve to death and you don’t even try to save me. You’re inhuman!”
“I’ve transferred five million to your account. You can check.”
Jordan’s scolding tone instantly turned into an incomparably flattering one. “Oh, look at me, always saying the wrong things. What I wanted to say was you are the very handsome, very bold, very distinguished, and very elegant friend of mine!”
Vinson directly said, “Stop. You’ve already received the money so you’re under my jurisdiction now.”
“What is it? You gave me five million… There shouldn’t be any mortal danger, right?”’.
“Just answer my question.”
“Uh… What question?”
Vinson glanced at the master bedroom before asking in a whisper. “The girl is angry. How should I coax her?”
Cough, cough…
Jordan on the other side of the call choked on his saliva.
He was ready to climb over mountains of blades and swam across seas of fire after being paid five million. In the end, it was… It was just this?
Jordan couldn’t comprehend what was going on and virtual-novel.net was speechless.
***
Half an hour later.
The girl in question was slumped over the desk. Arielle bit the pen cap as virtual-novel.net struggled to do virtual-novel.net Old Chanaean Literature homework.
Old Chanaean Literature was quite difficult for virtual-novel.net but virtual-novel.net still gained a lot of understanding after carefully studying it. She could easily solve questions that involved common words provided that virtual-novel.net had them memorized. But virtual-novel.net had been somewhat flustered today so virtual-novel.net couldn’t do this medium-difficulty level Old Chanaean Literature homework.
The door was pushed open at this moment…
