My Pretty Sweetheart (Arianna)
Chapter 958

Naomi was quite annoyed. "D*mn, who does she think she is, hooking up with anyone? She's so unattractive! See how unfit she looks! How could she get to know such a handsome guy?" Naomi and my seats were relatively hidden. If Hendrix and Dahlia didn't deliberately look around, they wouldn't be able to see us.

We watched Hendrix and Dahlia then walked to a window seat and sit down, and Naomi's nosy nature manifested.

She called the waiter over, "Hey, could we change seats?"

"Of course, where would you like to be seated?"

Naomi pointed at the spot next to Hendrix and Dahlia, indicating her intent to the waiter.

The waiter agreed for us to move. I looked at Naomi and said, "It won't be easy to snoop. Both of us know Dahlia. If we change seats now, she'll inevitably see us when we stand up and walk there. Besides, I know this guy. His name is Hendrix Roberts! He's the president of the Roberts Group. We are bidding against them tonight."

She stared blankly and asked after a pause, "The Roberts Group's president?"

Naomi seemed quite shocked. She looked at him, and suddenly seemed to think of something. She looked at me. "When we were in Myanway, you said that you had a close connection to the Roberts family. So, what is your relationship with him?"

After thinking for a while, I said, "Well, we're husband and wife!"

Her jaw dropped. She was so surprised that it almost touched the floor. "You're a powerful president's wife? Then, why are you a Milton Group secretary? I finally understand why Sebastian gave you this project. He clearly wanted you to use your relationship to get the bid! What are you so worried about then?"

Glancing at Hendrix and Dahlia, she clicked her tongue and looked back at me. "So, the friend you spoke of last night was him? And both you and Dahlia bumped into Hendrix? But now, why is Dahlia and Hendrix meeting alone?"

I shook my head, unsure myself. I simply explained the relationship between Hendrix and myself and said, "Naomi, I didn't intend to hide it from you, I just didn't know how to say it. I have too much history with Hendrix, so there is also a lot of complications between us. I came to Asherton to live my own life."

She frowned. "So it's a lover's spat? Or did he cheat on you, so you left him?"

I laughed. "Why are you always thinking about such weird matters?

She clicked her tongue and said, "I'm not weird! Rich people are generally like that, aren't they? Besides, he's so handsome and wealthy, I'm sure plenty of people want to throw themselves at him."

I nodded and didn't deny it, simply telling her, "He isn't so bad. We split for our own reasons. I can't bear a child, so I chose to leave him and let him be together with someone who could. I wanted him to have a normal life."

"What?" She was a little confused. "What the hell is that? If you can't give birth, you could have an IVF child. There's plenty of couples who can't give birth nowadays, so what the hell are you talking about? He's such a precious, desirable man, so why are you throwing him away? What are you thinking?"

I didn't know what to say, so I pointed towards Hendrix's direction, reminding her of her purpose to eavesdrop.

She snorted and said, "Don't change the subject. Besides, you just said that Dahlia would recognize us. You think she wouldn't see me if I stood up?"
