My Pretty Sweetheart (Arianna)
Chapter 178

Aaron took a sip of tea as his gaze fell on me, and he said with a strange tone, "I'm a little surprised that you're so confident. I just left Jarold City yesterday. And there was a rumor among the elite families in Jarold City that Mr. Moore and Madam Lawson have found themselves a reputable son-in-law. I heard that the last name of their so-called son-in-law was Roberts."

Speaking to that point, he couldn't help smiling, "I wonder where is your Hendrix right now?"

Aaron intended to irritate me. I wouldn't let myself be bothered by his words, so I replied, "Mr. Reid, if you don't have anything else to say, I'll go home."

He sneered and looked at Yana as he said, "Yana, tell my dear sister about what happened in Jarold City!"

I frowned and said impatiently, "There's no need forthat. It's getting late. I should go!"

"Miss Reid, since you are here, you can just treat this as a story to listen to. You don't need to leave in such a hurry," Yana said to me.

On second thought, Yana didn't seem like she was an ordinary woman.

"Why don't you listen to her?" Aaron looked at me, with his chin propped up.

I didn't say anything. If it was just a story, I couldn't see why not.

Yana smiled faintly and poured me another cup of tea. She began the story, "I've heard a few rumors during the stay in Jarold City with Mr. Reid for a few days. The rumors were all related to Mr. Roberts." After a pause, she said, "They might be baseless rumors. So, Miss Reid, take it with a pinch of salt."

"Sure," I responded. I could figure out what she was about to say.

Hendrix had stayed in Jarold City for more than half a month, during which he hadn't called me. Not even once. If he was really in the ICU, he should have already been discharged in the past few days. It was ridiculous to think back on how I struggled to make any decision on everything that had happened. But in the end, I didn't even know what I was holding onto.

"The Moore family was a noble of three generations in Jarold City, so they are fairly remarkable over there. Pedro, who was a playboy, fell in love with Valerie many years ago. Valerie wasn't from a well- established family, so the Moore Family objected to their relationship. Due to that, Valerie left Jarold City alone while she was pregnant. However, unfortunate things happened, and she lost her daughter. For al those years, those two were in despair because of their love. Valerie got to her position today by getting the Clark Group's chairman's help, one step at a time. And with Pedro's whole-hearted love, she even found her long-lost daughter," Yana continued.

She looked at me then cast a glance at Aaron. He looked away without saying a thing.

She then continued, "Miss Reid, I'm sure you are aware that Andrea is their long-lost daughter. The Moore Family in Jarold City eventually acknowledged Valerie as part of their family. They also brought Andrea back to the family. They are changing her name to Linsy Moore. I also heard that the Moore Family is very fond of her, and they are preparing a grand banquet for her the next month. When they learned that Andrea likes to play the violin, the Moore Family even found her a top violin instructor to teach her."

Listening up to that point, I got a little impatient, so I said, "Miss Henry, is it? What you said has nothing to do with me. What's even the purpose of telling me all this?"

She smiled and replied calmly, "Yes, Miss Reid doesn't care about someone irrelevant to you. But at least, you cared about your husband, right?"

I felt amused and said, "Do I have to hear about my husband from others?" I sighed, "You two are thinking way too much. Thank you for being concerned about my private life, but I trust my husband instead of the hearsay stories from others."

Aaron slammed his teacup on the table suddenly, making a loud noise. Then, he said to me, "If you really don't care, you wouldn't have left the Roberts Group when they pushed all the blame on you. Arianna, i you really don't care, then you should just divorce Hendrix for your own sake."
