My Pretty Sweetheart (Arianna)
Chapter 1680

Standing outside the intensive care unit, we watched the doctors and nurses take first aid measures around the patients. There was a sense of helplessness and panic that could only be felt after experiencing it.

lan didn't wake up, but he regained some consciousness. The doctor said he was out of danger, but the time for him to be fully conscious was uncertain. It could've been maybe three or five days, or a few months.

It was almost dark when we left the hospital, and we picked Anne up on the way back. With Aaron's company, the trip was safe.

When we returned to the Reid Manor, we saw the long-lost Zachary. He was discussing something with Charles in the living room. He was very kind, and Anne had always liked him. The moment she entered the living room, she ran over to Zachary. "Uncle Zachary!"

Charles laughed. "Anne called you Uncle Zachary. You're quite close, I see!"

At this time, it seemed like Freya had had foresight. Zachary was about the same age as us, and it was indeed more appropriate to call him uncle.

"Where's Freya? Why didn't she come with you?" I sat down and changed the subject.

"Oh, it seems that she has a gathering with her best friends. She probably can't get out of it for a while. Besides, Mr. Reid and I only talk about boring topics. She will feel bored." Zachary answered with ease, as if it was nothing special.

Charles seemed to appreciate him very much and immediately added, "Zachary is really capable. He has been making visits to different areas these few days. Thanks to his advice, I can come back earlier and could take a few days off."

Zachary smiled and nodded. He did not overdo it, and was as modest and polite as ever.

I teased him, "It doesn't matter for Freya, but Professor Holt... You haven't seen her for so long, can you take it?"

Zachary was a little embarrassed. He lowered his head and smiled, but did not reply.

I felt that something wasn't right, but I didn't know what it was. Seeing as Charles and Zachary still had business to discuss, I brought Anne upstairs to rest.

After Hendrix and Eddison's men halted their fight, Jarold City became much peaceful.

In early September, I completed the second bar exam. Aaron was worried about complications in my delivery process. He issued a ban to ground me after the exam. My private doctors stayed in the guest room all night and were ready to be on standby any time.

The due date was at the end of December, and there were still two months left. In recent days, I had become more and more sleepy. My contact with Hendrix reduced from before sleeping every night, to once a week. The last time I heard his voice was a month ago.

It was still hot in November. Emma helped me out for some cool air in the back garden. It had been a long time since I saw Tobias, when he came to the Reid Manor personally.

He was accompanied by a blond beauty from abroad, who was not the one from half a year ago, but she was as seductive as the previous one. This guy had no sense of occasion. I quickly asked the servant to take Anne into the house.

Although Tobias and the other beautiful woman were good-looking, it was quite annoying to see them snuggling in such hot weather.

I decided to lose my temper and pressed him impatiently. "Mr. Hayes, if you have something to say, just say it. After that, ask the servants to bring the two of you to the best guest rooms. The sun is so bright and the weather is hot. Don't lose consciousness during the heat."

Tobias stopped as soon as he heard this. He leaned over, narrowed his eyes, and looked at me smugly. "Miss Reid, are you suspicious of my prowess?"
