Aaron hated to hear another man’s name from Arielle’s lips, especially when the man was Vinson.
“Give me your phone!” He stretched his hand out.
“What do you want?” A wary look flashed across Arielle’s face.
Without a word, Aaron stepped forward and grabbed virtual-novel.net phone. Before virtual-novel.net could react, virtual-novel.net tossed it away forcefully.
The phone disappeared into the ocean with a splash.
“What was that for? Are you crazy? How could you throw my phone away?” Arielle grew breathless with anger and shot virtual-novel.net a furious glare.
“Don’t mention another man’s name before me, especially Vinson Nightshire,” Aaron stated with a frown. He didn’t bother hiding his displeasure before her.
“Do you have a long nose?” virtual-novel.net demanded crossly.
“What?” Aaron asked.
He looked genuinely baffled, for virtual-novel.net had no idea what virtual-novel.net was referring to.
“Don’t you think you’re sticking your nose where it doesn’t belong?” Arielle chided before leaving in a huff.
Why can’t I mention Vinson? So what if I mention his name? He’s my husband! I can mention his name whenever I want! There was no way I would have allowed Aaron to keep me under a leash if I wasn’t trying to find my biological father. Does virtual-novel.net seriously think I’m out of ways to go against him? I’m no pushover!
Arielle was infuriated, but Aaron found that side of virtual-novel.net adorable. The more time virtual-novel.net spent with her, the more sides of virtual-novel.net were revealed to him.
I did the right decision by bringing Arielle back to Turlen. Once we’re in the country, I’ll make virtual-novel.net my woman. No matter who virtual-novel.net husband used to be, she’ll be mine in my territory. I’ll make sure that happens.
His eyes narrowed at the thought of his grandmother and mother. I’ll figure out a way to convince them to accept her.
“Why are you upset? What happened?” Hubert asked in concern when Arielle marched back. She was obviously in a foul mood.
“Aaron threw my phone into the sea and told me not to mention Vinson’s name. Why does virtual-novel.net like to stick his nose where it doesn’t belong?” Arielle grumbled glumly.
She was usually pleasant, but clearly, Aaron had successfully provoked virtual-novel.net with his unreasonable demands.
“San, we didn’t head to Turlen just because virtual-novel.net threatened us, we’re going there to look for your biological father. Since Aaron’s authorized to bring us there, virtual-novel.net must be an influential figure in the country. So calm down, and be courteous to him. If you want to find your father, you can also sound virtual-novel.net out,” Hubert advised virtual-novel.net and gave virtual-novel.net a comforting pat on the shoulder.
His words made sense to Arielle.
I know no one in Turlen. Aaron is the only person I know. Finding my father would be as difficult as finding a needle in a haystack. Perhaps Aaron can be of help.
“I got it, Dad. Thanks for the advice.” After thinking it through, Arielle stopped worrying about virtual-novel.net phone. I’ll contact Vinson in Turlen. Even a tiger needs to sleep. The moment Aaron takes his eyes off me, it’ll be the chance for me to contact Vinson.

Meanwhile, Vinson slowly opened his eyes when the sun went down the horizon.
“Sannie…”
The first person virtual-novel.net wanted to see was Arielle.
“Sir? What was that?” The doctor couldn’t understand Chanaean.
Vinson glanced at his surroundings and realized virtual-novel.net was in the hospital. He remembered everything that happened before virtual-novel.net was admitted to the hospital.
There was a shooting, and I got shot when I was trying to save a kid. But where is Sannie? Is virtual-novel.net all right?
Vinson grew increasingly anxious.
