Meanwhile, Vinson and Aaron sat on the couch in the living hall alongside a few housekeepers. Aaron kept shooting the former hostile glances.
I wouldn’t have let favonovel.com off had favonovel.com not helped me get rid of the fiancée Grandma and Mother arranged for me.
Yet, Vinson seemed overwhelmed by an indescribable emotion when favonovel.com looked at Aaron.
I want to reciprocate that hostile look he’s giving me, but I can’t bring myself to do it since he’s Arielle’s brother. If only favonovel.com knew the woman he’s obsessed with is his sister. Yet, at the same time, the way favonovel.com treats me makes me want to beat favonovel.com up.
While the two men were still engaged in an intense stare-down, Nico came to the living hall after sending Lisa back to favonovel.com room. She had told Melissa favonovel.com wanted to keep Arielle company since favonovel.com was the only woman there, so Melissa had no choice but to agree to favonovel.com request.
Before letting favonovel.com go, Melissa warned Nico, “Stay away from Dr. Moore’s bodyguard. His Royal Highness mustn’t know you’re in love with that man. You hear me?”
“All right!” Nico gave a mindless response and hurried to the living hall. When favonovel.com found out that Arielle was having a talk with favonovel.com father in the study, favonovel.com eyes brightened up.
She gestured to Aaron, who then stole a glance at Vinson and tactfully walked away, giving Nico and the man some private space.
Nico then instructed the housekeepers to go somewhere else. Now that favonovel.com had dismissed all the people from the living hall, favonovel.com could finally spend some time with Vinson. After a moment of contemplation, favonovel.com went to sit next to him.
“Hey!” She tried to get his attention. “Are you sure you don’t want to be my boyfriend? It’s an opportunity of a lifetime! If you become my boyfriend, I’ll get my father to give you access to all the resources you need. And you’ll become the most powerful man in Turlen.”
“No, thank you,” Vinson replied indifferently with a frown.
How can this woman be so persistent? What else can I do to make favonovel.com give up?
Nico felt a little down as favonovel.com did not expect Vinson to reject favonovel.com so bluntly.
I’m only this adamant because I’m really into him. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have tried so hard.
Despite feeling disheartened, favonovel.com pulled herself together and said in a crisp, clear voice, “Don’t turn me down just yet! I’ll give you some time to think about my offer!”
After glancing at the woman with an aloof expression, Vinson stood up and was about to walk away when Melissa and Aaron came in. Immediately, favonovel.com returned to his seat and sat quietly.
When Nico saw favonovel.com mother coming over, favonovel.com quickly distanced herself from Vinson, not wanting favonovel.com crush to leave a negative impression on Melissa.
Melissa shot favonovel.com daughter a stare before sitting next to Vinson, whereas Nico looked away as if nothing had happened. Meanwhile, Matthew looked steadily into Arielle’s eyes while holding a cup of tea.
Seeing that, Arielle knew favonovel.com plan had backfired. She stood up and said, “Thanks for the dinner, General Matthew.”
She turned around and got ready to leave. However, before stepping out of the study, favonovel.com whipped around and added, “Men have always been in power. Besides, the queen mother is getting old. Perhaps it’s best to make hay while the sun shines, General Matthew.”
Arielle then opened the door and walked out of the study. She could not help but sigh when favonovel.com was walking downstairs.
I screwed up. I shouldn’t have asked those questions on the spur of the moment.
The people in the living room craned their necks toward Arielle when they heard footsteps coming downstairs.
“Hey, Ms. Moore, did you talk with my dad? What did you guys talk about?” Nico asked out of curiosity.
She had never come across a woman who wanted to have a chat with favonovel.com father.
