My Pretty Sweetheart (Arianna)

Chapter 242

After much contemplation, I asked, "Aren't we going to the Mansion to say goodbye to Uncle Trent and

Aunt Kennedy?"

I looked up to him, waiting for his answer. But Hendrix only looked at me. His dark eyes fixed on me for

a long time before he finally pointed out, "Arianna, you don't want to go to Jarold City."

I was startled by his sharpness, and I shook my head in denial instinctively. "It's not that... I'm used to

staying in Ucrebury, so I feel strange in Jarold City. Besides, I'm already not sleeping well. I'm afraid

that it'll be harder for me to sleep when I go to Jarold City."

The truth was that I didn't like it, and I didn't want to go to Jarold City. Valerie and Pedro were there,

and I would be on their turf by going there. I had a hunch that I wouldn't end up well if I went there.

"I've gotten in touch with the doctor. Plus, we aren't going to stay for a long time - at most a month.

We'll come home once we pay a visit to Aunt Nerissa and the doctor. You're sick, and you need

treatment. It's for yours and our child's sake. I know you trust Doctor Shelley, but he's your friend. At

personal relationships will cloud his judgment."

Hendrix said those words with great sincerity, and I couldn't deny it.

I lowered my eyes to look at my hand, and I nodded, "Well, I'll do as you said then. When is our flight

tonight?" I should visit Monique and Ian before that. After all, I had asked Ian to fly back from Mesville. I

shouldn't go to Jarold City without letting him know.

"Six in the evening."

I nodded and said lightly, "Then I'll go to the hospital to visit Monique first."

"I'll come with you."

I wanted to decline his offer, but I stopped myself as I thought of Josiah. He might need to visit Josiah.

After breakfast, I went into the kitchen and turned on the gas to make pasta for Aaron. Minnie didn't like

the idea of me cooking in the kitchen with the baby bump, so she kicked me out of the kitchen. I

couldn't win the fight, and in the end, I just let her make the seafood pasta under my instruction.

It wasn't a long drive from the villa to the hospital. Even if Hendrix drove steadily, it didn't take long for

us to arrive at the hospital.

When we were in the elevator, he picked up a call. Initially, he was going to visit Monique with me. But

since it was inconvenient to talk on the phone in the wardroom, he went to the staircase to continue the

call.

Upon entering the wardroom, I saw Monique's expectant face and said with her puppy eyes, "You're

finally here! I'm so bored! Please hurry and help me complete the discharge procedures. I'll really die if

I stay here for any longer."

Amused at her exaggeration, I laughed and handed her the pasta. "Minnie just made it. Hurry up and

eat it before it gets cold. And I'm going to send these to the other two. Otherwise, they won't taste

good."

"Two? Who else?" Monique looked at me curiously while she opened the container.

"Josiah and Aaron."

She gaped at me, "I know Josiah is admitted to the hospital. What happened to Aaron?"

It was complicated and hard to explain, so I simply said, "He was beaten by Hendrix. I'll tell you more

when I come back later!"

Then, I left the wardroom, and I saw Austin and Andrea. Andrea was looking sideways at me, but only

that. I felt like she seemed to have changed a lot these days. She was quieter than before.

I went forward to hand one of the containers over to Austin and said, "Mr. Shelley, do you mind taking

this breakfast to Doctor Saunders?"

Austin raised his eyebrows and asked, "Did you make this?"

"Hendrix did," Seeing that he had taken the lunch box, I didn't say any further and went straight to the

surgical ward.

Aaron was really good at making things difficult for other people. The moment I arrived near the door of

his ward, I heard him coldly asking the care worker to leave.

The care worker came out of the room with an ashen face. When she saw me standing at the door, she

pulled me aside and said, "Miss Reid, you should find someone to take care of the patient. I have a

sudden emergency at home, and I can't come again."
