My Pretty Sweetheart (Arianna) -
Chapter 1850
Was he acting like a spoiled child?
He was over 1.8 meters tall, dressed in leather and jeans. He was a hunk outside, but was a little puppy on the inside. How interesting.
Had Freya changed her preference?
Wait! Wife?
I took a deep breath, shocked. Freya had only been abroad for a little over a month and she was married?
Freya saw my confusion and quickly explained, "Stop imagining things. Things are not what they seem."
"Why not? You will marry me eventually. By then, you will be my wife," Cyril didn't give up and argued.
"Shut up." Freya rolled her eyes coldly. "It was just a one-night stand."
Cyril's expression turned more aggrieved. "So, you won't take responsibility then, my dear?"
Freya was so mad that she glared at him.
I couldn't help chuckling. Who would have thought that the sharp-tongued Miss Moore would be speechless one day?
"I think you should first comfort this child's injured heart, and then have a good talk." I was probably a bad friend.
Freya sighed helplessly and said, "You head back first. Leave this man to me."
Hearing this, I had no choice but to take my leave after bailing Cyril out.
I patted Freya's arm to calm her down. Then, I got back in the car and left.
As the car pulled away, I subconsciously looked into the rearview mirror. Cyril kept trying to inch closer to Freya, but she avoided all of his attempts, not giving him any chance to do as he wanted.
Honestly, although Freya was much older than Cyril, they looked like a perfect match when they stood together. They were entangled with each other, and there was even a hint of sweetness and love between them.
I pursed my lips and smiled. If Freya could always be doted on passionately, it might not be a bad thing.
It was already one in the morning when we arrived in Ucrebury. After another hour of driving, I finally arrived at the mansion.
After Dalton passed away, there
were a couple of servants left to guard the old estate. I knocked on the door for a long time before Roger, who served Dalton, heard the noise and opened the door to let us in? swñovel.net
"Young Madam, why didn't you say anything in advance before coming here? I would've sent someone to the airport to pick you up. The room is not cleaned up yet. I'm afraid you'll have to make do tonight," Roger said as he ordered the servants to go upstairs and clean the room. "Hurry, take out a new set of bedding and
get it changed."
I stopped him and said, "Don't bother, Roger. Hasn't Hendrix been coming back recently. I can sleep in his room."
"This..." Roger stammered, looking to be in a dilemma.
"What's wrong?" I asked.
"Young Master stays in the Old Master's and Madam's room every time he comes back, and he'd sit in there for a whole night. They have passed on for years now, and there no bedsheets in the room, It's
are
not appropriate for you to sleep
inside," Roger said.
"Well...alright. It's your call."
"Okay, that's great."
Roger quickly arranged a room for me. Mullen stayed in the living room downstairs, closest to the main hall, the best place for her to handle any oncoming assault. After my shower, everyone had already gone to sleep.
I found Hendrix's parents' room based on what I could recall. The door was unlocked, and I opened it gently.
When the light was turned on, the room instantly lit up.
The furniture and decoration were still the same as before. Even the curtains that had been used for so many years were replaced with the same pattern and design.
I walked around the room, not finding anything strange. There was a single sofa in front of the French window; that must be Hendrix's usual spot.
When I approached the sofa, I saw a photo frame on the floor with the glass pieces shattered all over.
