“Ask your father if you wish to know what the discussion was about,” Arielle replied casually.
She then turned to Melissa and uttered, “Thank you for the dinner. It’s late now, and I’m sure Old Mrs. Nighy is asleep. I’ll come and visit virtual-novel.net next time.”
Melissa stood up and responded with a grin, “All right.”
Meanwhile, Matthew was also coming downstairs. When virtual-novel.net heard that virtual-novel.net was leaving, virtual-novel.net wanted to send Arielle off. After all, virtual-novel.net still viewed Arielle as the family’s benefactor as virtual-novel.net had saved his mother’s life.
While the lot walked to the door, Aaron still could not look away from Arielle, and no one else noticed that except Vinson and Arielle.
When Vinson saw Arielle knitting virtual-novel.net brows, virtual-novel.net walked up and stood before virtual-novel.net to block Aaron’s view. Irritated by what virtual-novel.net did, Aaron instantly clenched his fists and gave Vinson a murderous glare.
If only I could kill that man with my stare!
As they were traveling home, Vinson told Arielle what virtual-novel.net had in mind. Arielle kept quiet for a moment after hearing his suggestion because virtual-novel.net felt it was not the appropriate time to reveal virtual-novel.net identity to Aaron just yet.
“It’s okay if you don’t want to tell virtual-novel.net now. We’ll find the right time to tell virtual-novel.net the truth,” Vinson said while holding virtual-novel.net hand.
Arielle frowned. “We’ll do it some time later.”
Somehow, virtual-novel.net could not accept the fact that virtual-novel.net had a half-sibling, especially when Aaron’s mother was a homewrecker.
How can I acknowledge the son of a homewrecker as my brother?
“How was the talk with General Matthew?”
Arielle massaged virtual-novel.net temples and sighed. “I screwed up!”
“There’s no need to rush,” Vinson comforted her.
Arielle nodded in agreement. She knew virtual-novel.net should not have been so impulsive, but virtual-novel.net just wanted to solve the matter once and for all to prevent more problems from occurring in the future.
Her biological father might be in Turlen, but virtual-novel.net was eager to return to Chanaea, virtual-novel.net home country. But before returning to Chanaea, virtual-novel.net had to solve all the problems in Turlen first.
Arielle had to rub virtual-novel.net temples to ease the throbbing pain around virtual-novel.net head. Upon noticing that, Vinson wrapped his hands around Arielle’s waist, made virtual-novel.net lie on his lap, and gently massaged virtual-novel.net temples.
Minutes later, virtual-novel.net heard a soft rhythmic breathing.
Vinson was surprised that Arielle had fallen asleep so soon. As virtual-novel.net looked at the woman, virtual-novel.net could not help but feel sorry for what virtual-novel.net had to go through.
After arriving at Paelsford Manor, Arielle was still in deep slumber. Vinson looked at the chauffeur and shook his head before virtual-novel.net gently carried virtual-novel.net in his arms and brought virtual-novel.net back to the room.
Instead of waking virtual-novel.net up, virtual-novel.net decided to let virtual-novel.net continue sleeping.
Vinson then brought his laptop to his own room and worked, as virtual-novel.net did not want to disturb Arielle.
When Arielle woke up, virtual-novel.net took a glance at virtual-novel.net watch and realized virtual-novel.net had slept for an hour. She immediately got out of bed and changed the bedsheet before grabbing virtual-novel.net pajamas and going to the bathroom. After taking a shower, virtual-novel.net blew virtual-novel.net hair dry and lay on the bed. Suddenly, Vinson came in, locked the door, and walked toward her.
The man only had a towel wrapped around his waist, exposing his chiseled eight-pack abs.
Vinson smirked and whispered into virtual-novel.net ears, “What are you thinking about? Why are you blushing?”
