Chapter 133
"Hendrix, do you love me?" I asked. That was a stupid question, but it was common for girls to ask that.
He raised his arm, placed his hand on my cheek, and rubbed my earlobe with his fingertip, "What about
you?"
Me?
I was a little lost. It was a long time ago. I fell in love with Hendrix at first sight, and I carried on those
beautiful feelings I had up until now. However, after such a long journey, I couldn't get any response
from him. So, I had started to become less persistent and even planned to leave him.
Perhaps, I didn't love him as much as I thought I'd be anymore.
Seeing that I was silent, the light in his eyes dimmed. After a long pause, he said, "It's okay. We can
take this slowly. We'll love each other deeply in the future."
I didn't say anything and just pushed him slightly, "Go take a bath. I'm tired."
It had been too long, and I should have let go of him earlier. I was really getting tired.
He planted a kiss on my forehead, then got out of bed and went into the bathroom.
I stared blankly at the ceiling.
The phone he left on the bed suddenly started vibrating, I didn't intend to pick it up, but the phone kept
ringing, so I answered the phone.
"Hendrix, can you come over and accompany me? I'm alone, and I'm scared." Andrea sounded weak NôvelDrama.Org holds this content.
and fragile over the phone.
Glancing at the bathroom, I said, "He's taking a shower. You can call him later."
"Arianna!" Judging by her tone, she wasn’t happy that I answered. She continued, "Why did you
answer Hendrix's phone? What are you guys doing?"
Her yelling made me feel a little annoyed, and I repeated, "I said Hendrix is taking a shower. Call him
later!"
"Arianna, why you're so shameless!" Andrea replied. Sometimes I felt that Andrea was just a simple girl
with only basic tactics in mind. Besides crying and yelling, she couldn't come up with other strategies. If
it wasn't for her beauty, a girl like her wouldn't even be able to pose a threat.
"Well, yes, I am shameless. I still have to deal with his physiological needs even when I'm pregnant
later. Therefore, Miss Burton, you may always call him again when he's done, as his mistress." I replied
harshly. To be clear, I wasn't disgusted at her as a person. I was just disgusted at the fact that I was
entangled in her mess. It was exhausting.
I hung up the phone before Andrea's heartbroken scream came.
After putting the phone aside, I pinched the bridge of my nose. When I looked up, Hendrix was already
standing by the bathroom door, staring at me with his cold dark eyes.
Without shying away, I directly pointed out, "Andrea called. She was too persistent, so I picked it up.
She wanted you to go to her.¹'
I laid back in the bed. It was already midsummer, but I still felt cold. Without realizing it, I hid under the
sheets.
'Well, what did you say to her?" He asked me in a deep tone. It seemed that he was only asking
casually without any other intention.
"I asked her to call you later," I said while hiding in the sheets. As it made me feel warmer, I closed my
eyes and prepared to sleep.
I heard a faint laugh, and then I felt him laid down next to me, brushing aside my hair.
I opened my eyes and stared at him.
He smiled and said, "Arianna, I'm your husband. Shouldn't you be fighting with me when some other
women call me in the middle of the night, asking for my company?"
I was startled, and I got up from the bed, looked at him, and said, "Then you don't have to stay here
tonight. Go stay elsewhere."
He was stunned. Then, he raised his hand and started rubbing my forehead and said powerlessly, "You
are my wife. Even if we fought, we should still stay under the same roof."
Knowing that I wouldn't be able to win him in an argument, I replied, "Fine.", and laid back down on the
bed.
He grabbed around my waist, pulled me into his embrace, and said in a teasing manner, "Are we going
to sleep just like this?"
