Chapter 241 I Will Remain By Your Side
The worry written on Vinson’s face was crystal clear.
Arielle was originally feeling forlorn earlier, but now that she saw Vinson, sadness welled up in her and she had an urge to cry.
I was still doing okay earlier. Why did I feel so weak now that Vinson is here?
She gave herself a self-mocking laugh and sniffled before saying, “Do I look like I’m not doing okay? You should check on Yvette and see if she’s alright.”
Vinson still looked worried nonetheless. He continued to stare at her, observing for any tiny change of expression on her face.
He could tell that there was still a hint of sorrow that she failed to cover up.
“I don’t care if Yvette is not okay. I just want to know what you’re thinking. Why do you look so unhappy?” Vinson asked with a frown.
Arielle knew that she could hide what she was feeling from a lot of people, but Vinson wasn’t one of them.
It was as though he could see right through her.
“Fine, you caught me. I just think that even someone like Yvette has a father who loves her. I’m the only one who’s alone. That’s why I was feeling down about it. It’s not a big deal. I’m already feeling better,” Arielle said helplessly.
As she spoke, she forced herself to put on a bright smile.
However, Vinson’s expression remained the same.
He gazed at her intently and suddenly said, “I’ll always remain by your side.”
Arielle was stunned but she quickly nodded. “I know. You’re a great friend and I’m very lucky to have you as my friend.”
Vinson opened his mouth as if he wanted to explain but couldn’t get anything out.
He had always been someone who would say the opposite of what he actually meant and he knew it as well. However, it wasn’t an easy task to change so suddenly.
In the end, all he said was, “Yeah.”
“Dad…”
She jumped from shock at the sight of him.
Once she snapped out of it, she quickly covered herself up with the covers.
Even though Yvette was shocked that her father had barged into the room, she wasn’t the least bit afraid.
The reason being the one she had slept with was Jordan. She wasn’t afraid that word about this would get out since this would mean that Jordan would not be able to get out of marrying her even if he wanted to.
How will the Bakers deny it now that everything is too late?
They say that one must not completely believe in a man’s words. She had to take advantage of this chance.
To her, it seemed like Russell had appeared right on time.
Yvette didn’t forget to cover up “Jordan” as she covered herself up. But she didn’t cover up his face, for she wanted everyone to see the man she had slept with.
