My Pretty Sweetheart (Arianna) novel Chapter 199

Hendrix replied before I could say anything. "She's busy!"

On the other end of the line, Monique fell into silence. After a short while, she finally found her voice and said, "I asked them to put it at the doorstep. It shouldn't be too far away."

"I'm on top of her now. Do you still think she can go to the front door?" He asked through his gritted teeth.

I was flustered.

Apparently, Monique felt the same too. The other end of the phone was silent for quite a long while, then it turned into a busy tone. She probably didn't know what to say either, so she hung up directly.

Hendrix switched off the phone and stared at me with a sullen face, not saying a word.

I knew he was angry, but that was all I knew.

After hitting the home run, I was almost drained empty of energy. It really didn't feel comfortable being forced into doing it.

Half-closing his eyes, Hendrix circled me in his arms. He was motionless. "You should get

up and take a shower."

"I don't want to move."

I was tired and in pain. I really didn't want to move.

Perhaps because he was satisfied, he had calmed down a lot. Hendrix gave a peck on the corner of my lips and said a sentence seemingly innocent, "You have to exercise more in the future."

I closed my eyes and didn't have the strength to respond to him.

I didn't want to take a shower, but my body was sticky from the sweat. It was uncomfortable.

Therefore, I got up and headed into the bathroom after lying in his embrace for a while. I gasped in pain when the warm water hit my body and irritated the swelling part. After a quick shower, I laid on the bed and closed my eyes to take a nap.

Maybe it was because I just had a vigorous activity, I was very sleepy. When Hendrix came out of the bathroom, I was already almost asleep.

I vaguely knew that he went out after he hugged me for some more time.

It was still raining. I couldn't help but frown. Hendrix would never ask a girl to deliver documents to the house on such a rainy day.

When Hendrix came out of the study room and saw Chloe, he frowned, too. "Why are you here? Where's Evan?"

Chloe smiled sweetly, and she still had some girly charm, "Evan's girlfriend is sick. He's busy taking care of her for the moment, so he has sent me to deliver the documents."

As she spoke, she handed the document to Hendrix.

Minnie poured some water and handed the glass to Chloe. Then, Minnie looked at Hendrix and said, "Master Hendrix, Madam Arianna didn't eat much just now, and she doesn't seem to have much appetite. I remember that she likes the pumpkin soup you made the most. Maybe you should cook some for her later."

I was stunned upon hearing this. It was obvious that these words were meant for Chloe but not Hendrix.

Chloe's expression changed a few times, but she quickly returned to normal.

Minnie had worried too much. Although I couldn't say that I knew Hendrix very well for the past two years, at least I had some understanding of him.

He wouldn't let Andrea go because he felt responsible and affection for her.
