My Pretty Sweetheart (Arianna)
Chapter 1541

I shrugged at the way she was comforting herself. I couldn't help but want to laugh at this sight. I was not sure how long she could continue fooling herself.

After a long sigh, I uttered, "Well, I don't think there's anything left for us to say anymore. If you are so certain that he loves you, then let's meet up tonight. If he doesn't love you, then you can see it for yourself and not lie to yourself anymore. You should be able to choose how you want to live your life."

I didn't know how else to persuade her anymore, so I gave up on her.

After a long while, she seemed to realize that it was useless to keep begging like this, thus she also gave up. However, she kept emphasizing that Sebastian was truly in love with her.

I didn't answer.

After she left, Tobias sat on the sofa and stared at me with a meaningful look. He squinted at me and said, "I'm a little curious. How did you know that Sebastian hasn't slept with her? And how do you know that Sebastian is not physically capable of doing so unless you experienced it yourself?"

I pursed my lips and rolled my eyes at him. "Nonsense. What are you thinking about? We had a conversation about it in the past. There's only so much that women can talk to each other about. If we don't talk about this, what else are we supposed to chat about?"

He answered with a long "oh" and continued, "Then do my former girlfriends discuss this behind my back too? If that's the case, that's too exciting. What could they possibly talk about? Perhaps they always discuss how good I am in bed."

I...

This man was so shameless.

I didn't want to talk to him anymore. I took out my phone and was about to call Hendrix, but my phone had no reception at all. I frowned and looked at Tobias.

He was puzzled and asked, "Why are you staring at me?"

I held out my phone towards him. "Is there no reception here?"

He nodded. "Isn't this normal? He is imprisoning you here. Do you think he will let you have the chance to call Hendrix and let him save you?"

I was speechless. "Since you already knew this since the start, why didn't you think of an escape plan?" This guy was probably a fool.

He shrugged. "What difference will it make? If my calculations are correct, Mr. Milton is going to send over some food in a moment. This villa is a few hundred square meters wide, and there are free delicacies for us. I don't think I could find anywhere else as luxurious as here, so why should I think of an escape plan?"

Tobias... was quite optimistic.

Alright.

I switched off the phone, sat down beside him, and said, "Tobias, can you not act like a ruffian? We are now being detained against our will. Do you understand what that means? Can you not just drool over temporary pleasures and try to think of an escape plan instead?"

He snorted and glanced at me. "How do we escape? Why should we escape? It's quite nice here."

I was stupefied. I looked at him and said, "Forget it, do whatever you want!"

Sure enough, just as Tobias had predicted, Sebastian soon sent someone along with our dinner. Tobias, like an idiot, scampered around the table in excitement and even struck up a conversation with Hodge. Hodge entertained him politely but soon left the room in silence.

Seeing Tobias indulging in his meal, I was at a loss for words. I didn't bother persuading him anymore. Since I didn't have much of an appetite, I stood by the window and glanced outside. This villa was way too huge, and the walls were built really high up. Sebastian would've had a handful of bodyguards surrounding this place. It was quite impossible for us to escape.
