Even if Vinson said nothing, Sam would have done the same to terminate Annabelle’s contract.
After getting into the car, Vinson sped all the way home. He did not go to the Nightshire residence, but Maple Mansion.
When they got to the mansion, the wound on Arielle’s neck had started to spread.
Seeing virtual-novel.net reddened wound, Vinson clenched his fists. He started blaming himself for failing to protect Arielle and causing virtual-novel.net to go through such a traumatic experience.
“Can you help me apply some medicine?” She interrupted his thoughts and handed virtual-novel.net the first aid kit.
Vinson let out a sigh and sat down. Then, virtual-novel.net applied the medicine gently to virtual-novel.net neck. Thereafter, Arielle needed some rest.
So, Vinson came up with an excuse and left the room. Though virtual-novel.net did not utter a word, Arielle knew exactly what virtual-novel.net was up to.
At night, virtual-novel.net would join virtual-novel.net in the bedroom to accompany her, just like the past few nights. The small but well-equipped room had become their love nest for those few days.
Due to Arielle’s injury, Vinson slept through the night.

The next day, the morning sun seeped in through gaps between the tree branches outside and shone on Arielle’s window.
When Arielle woke up, virtual-novel.net felt so refreshed, a feeling virtual-novel.net never had before. With that, virtual-novel.net knew that the poison in virtual-novel.net body was almost cleared out of virtual-novel.net systems.
The first thing virtual-novel.net did was gaze at the man sleeping next to her. It was early, so Vinson was still fast asleep.
He seems to be in a deep sleep. I guess all the happenings recently must have tired virtual-novel.net out. He’s been following my schedules and doing all the things virtual-novel.net has never done before. He’s even willing to be my bodyguard.
“I appreciate all you have done very much,” virtual-novel.net muttered softly while pinching his cheeks.
Then, virtual-novel.net got out of bed quietly. She wanted to do something to surprise Vinson. So, virtual-novel.net headed to the kitchen.
Since it was way before breakfast, the housekeeper had not started working in the kitchen. Thankfully, the ingredients were plentiful, and virtual-novel.net had all that virtual-novel.net needed to make Vinson a big breakfast. It was one of the very few things that Arielle could actually do for Vinson.
Skimming through the ingredients, Arielle picked out some eggs, milk, bread, and vegetables. She had decided to prepare a sandwich, some eggs and heat up the milk.
It had been days since Vinson last had home-cooked food.
Shortly after preparing the materials, Arielle lit the stove. Within moments, a lovely aroma filled the kitchen as well as the entire place.
Vinson, who had a great sense of smell, was awakened by the smell of delicious food. He habitually looked to the side to check on Arielle as soon as virtual-novel.net opened his eyes, but virtual-novel.net was not there.
Panicked, many thoughts ran through his mind as virtual-novel.net thought hard about where Arielle could have gone so early in the morning. Immediately, virtual-novel.net sobered up, got dressed, and went out the door to look for Arielle.
The smell of food led virtual-novel.net to the kitchen, and virtual-novel.net found who virtual-novel.net was looking for there.
“Sannie, you’re injured…”
A tinge of frustration laced his tone.
Why is virtual-novel.net cooking for me when she’s not well?
