My Pretty Sweetheart (Arianna)
Chapter 832

A cold breeze blew through the corridor as Valerie got up and said, "Go back and sit in the ward. I'll go and ask the doctor whether Hendrix can be discharged or transferred to the hospital in Jarold City. It's going to be New Year's soon. I hope that we can go back to Jarold City and celebrate the New Year's together."

I nodded and watched as she headed to the doctor's office before getting up. Then, I went back to the ward and saw that Hendrix and Pedro were chatting with each other.

However, I didn't eavesdrop on purpose. I heard Hendrix's voice when I raised my hand to push the door. He said in a slightly solemn voice, "Actually, you don't have to treat the Saunders family so ruthlessly." Obviously, those words were meant for Pedro.

Pedro replied in a deep and indifferent voice, "Your friendship with the Saunders family isn't enough to save them from the crime of hurting my daughter."

"Once something happens to the Saunders family, it won't be easy for them to turn things over," Hendrix was probably saying that for Josiah's

sake!

Pedro sneered, "I don't want to know about the matters between you and the Saunders family. Our fight already began the moment you joined forces with Josiah to attack the Moore Family."

I was feeling a little perplexed. Had Hendrix planned to attack the Moore Family before?

Hendrix's voice sounded as he said, "What has happened is in the past. Since we're going to forget everything, I don't think there's any need to mention past events anymore."

Pedro's voice was low and deep. He said in a slightly disdainful voice, "You already planned to hurt the Moore Family when you changed Arianna's DNA, right? You pretended to let Josiah approach Valerie and let them join hands to deal with you so that you can let Josiah obtain information about the Moore Group from her. You didn't want Arianna to come back to our side because you were afraid that once you destroyed the Moore Family, Arianna and you would be at odds with each other, right?"

I was stunned, and my body stiffened a little. Suddenly, I remembered the information that Kelsey had disclosed to me before. Josiah and Valerie had really been in contact with each other for a long time. However, at that time, Kelsey had told me the reason Josiah and Valerie had joined forces was to help Natalie vent her anger.

Looking at the two men in the ward, I couldn't help but take a step back. They were both businessmen and I couldn't guess what kind of conspiracies they were going to do.

Hendrix could already sit upright. He looked at him faintly and said, "Although the Moore family has the entire Jarold City in their hands, you aren't powerful enough to have control over Ucerbury. You still want to expand your power to Ucrebury. It is impossible for me to sit down and do nothing."

"Humph!" Pedro snorted coldly and continued, "Although the Moore Family has been involved in shady business for many years, we have always been clandestine in carrying out matter. The reason why I expanded my power to Ucrebury was just to find my daughter. I didn't mean to cause any trouble to you."

"However, the truth remains that Natalie is dead!" Hendrix opened his mouth, his voice low and full of anger.

Pedro frowned and said, "That was an accident."

"That's why we will settle this accident today," Hendrix spoke with a hint of coldness in his voice.

Pedro snorted coldly and said, "This is a matter between you young people. However, now, you guys still think you haven't done anything wrong even when you have hurt innocent people. Hendrix, if you want to live a peaceful life with Arianna, it's best if we can write off everything in one go and stop talking about the past. Otherwise, you and I won't be able to live a peaceful life in the future."

I pursed my lips and did not intend to continue listening. I went back to the corridor and sat down with a glass of water in my hand.

Four years ago, Hendrix's purpose behind swapping out my DNA did not seem as simple as I thought.

Josiah was obviously quite close to Valerie, but he later left her without doing anything. I had never thought about that matter before.

I had never thought that I would get involved in Natalie's death one day as well.
