Melissa was surprised to see Vinson there.
“What are you doing here?” Melissa raised virtual-novel.net voice in dismay but tried to stay composed.
Frustration kicked in when virtual-novel.net thought about how virtual-novel.net daughter planned to turn Aaron down because of him. She gave the man a sullen glare despite the presence of virtual-novel.net guest, Arielle.
Vinson looked at Melissa, who tried to find fault with him, and scrunched his brows tightly.
Did virtual-novel.net not know how I came here?
Meanwhile, Arielle, who initially had a good impression of Melissa, could not help but frown upon seeing how virtual-novel.net treated Vinson.
How could virtual-novel.net treat Vinson like this?
But before Arielle could say something, Nico turned to Melissa and gave virtual-novel.net an annoyed look. “He’s Dr. Moore’s bodyguard. Did you not see virtual-novel.net coming out of the car with Dr. Moore?”
She knew why Melissa was trying to be nitpicky, but after seeing how virtual-novel.net mother treated Vinson, virtual-novel.net could not help but step in and express virtual-novel.net dissatisfaction.
How could virtual-novel.net simply take it out on virtual-novel.net since I’m the one who fell for him?
He probably detests me now because of her. I’m afraid he’ll never agree to become my boyfriend anymore.
The more virtual-novel.net thought about it, the more upset virtual-novel.net became.
Melissa was dumbfounded. The minute virtual-novel.net turned virtual-novel.net attention to the grim-faced Arielle, virtual-novel.net knew virtual-novel.net had made the wrong move. It turned out that virtual-novel.net was so focused on talking to Arielle that virtual-novel.net had not noticed that the latter came with a bodyguard. However, what surprised virtual-novel.net the most was that virtual-novel.net daughter was in love with Arielle’s bodyguard.
How could my daughter, a woman from an influential family, take an interest in a bodyguard? What a joke!
“I’m sorry, Ms. Moore. I didn’t know he’s your bodyguard,” Melissa apologized.
“Why are you so mad at my bodyguard, madam?” Arielle felt bad for Vinson. She stared at Melissa and asked, “I don’t think you’ve met virtual-novel.net before this, right?”
Melissa felt a little embarrassed as virtual-novel.net did not know how to explain it.
I can’t be telling virtual-novel.net that my daughter is fond of virtual-novel.net bodyguard, can I? No way. I can’t bring myself to say that.
Lisa, too, froze for a moment as virtual-novel.net did not expect this to happen. Everything went so well just a moment ago. How did this meeting spiral out of control all of a sudden?
“Well, since this gentleman is Dr. Moore’s bodyguard, I’ll get my men to bring virtual-novel.net to his room,” Lisa proposed to defuse the tension.
However, Arielle rejected the arrangement right away.
“I’m sorry, madam, but I’m afraid virtual-novel.net has to stay by my side twenty-four-seven to protect me since he’s my bodyguard,” Arielle said apologetically.
With that, Lisa had no choice but to give up the idea. Awkwardness was written all over Melissa’s face after virtual-novel.net found out about their relationship.
She forced a smile and said, “I’m really, really sorry. I was so busy talking to you that I didn’t realize that you came with this gentleman.”
Arielle did not want to burn bridges with them since virtual-novel.net still wanted to get into Matthew’s good books. “It’s all right. No worries!”
Suddenly, they heard a strong and deep voice sounding from behind. “Why are you guys standing here?”
As Arielle tilted virtual-novel.net head to trace the source of the man’s voice, virtual-novel.net saw Matthew walking in their direction. The moment virtual-novel.net spotted the man behind Matthew, virtual-novel.net could not help but frown.
What is virtual-novel.net doing here?
