My Pretty Sweetheart (Arianna)
Chapter 200

However, Hendrix wasn't someone promiscuous.

Hendrix took the document from Chloe. Glancing at me, he nodded slightly and replied to Minnie, "Okay!"

Chloe knew that she had completed her task, and she couldn't stay any longer. She took one more glimpse at Hendrix before she left.

Hendrix then went upstairs to put down the documents. Minnie pulled me aside and nagged me, "Arianna, how could you simply let another woman come into your home? Can't you see that her eyes were basically stuck at Master Hendrix just now? Why do you still act like it has nothing to do with you?"

Well. I chuckled.

"Minnie, that's not the case. Hendrix has a lot to do in the company, and Miss Hammer is his secretary. She came here to deliver a very urgent document for the company."

Minnie curled her lips. "I don't think so. That girl obviously has a crush on Master Hendrix. You need to be careful!"

Meantime, Hendrix had come back downstairs. Seeing him, Minnie stopped talking and headed back to the kitchen to continue with her work.

I slept for too long, and my eyes hurt a little from it. So, I turned around and went to clean myself up. When I came back to the first floor, I was surprised to replace that there was a bowl of pumpkin soup on the dining table.

Minnie had already returned to her room for the night, and Hendrix was sitting in the living room, reading a book.

He shifted his eyes from the book to me when he saw me, and he gestured to the dining table, "Have some soup."

"Did you make it?"

He nodded, "Try it."

I didn't expect Hendrix to make it for me. I thought Minnie just casually mentioned it, and he wouldn't take it seriously. Although I didn't eat much for dinner, I wasn't really hungry right then.

I had a few sips of it, and it tasted good. But since I had already eaten, I couldn't drink all of it.

I stared at Hendrix, who was reading on the sofa, and my mind drifted. Truth be told, Hendrix's good appearance was joined together by his noble-mindedness and firm composure. He looked like a warrior during ancient times, charming and impeccable.

On the other hand, Aaron was different from Hendrix. He was cold and vicious like a vampire. Even though sometimes he would be gentle and kind, the barbarism in him was apparent.

"Are you full from staring at me rather than eating?" Hendrix quipped, cocking his eyebrow.

He had already come close and sat at my opposite. I came back to my senses and averted my gaze as I stuttered, "W-When did you come?"

He smiled smugly, "When you had your eyes fixated at me."

I was speechless.

Hendrix really had no shame.

I looked at the remaining half of the bowl of soup in front of me, then I looked at him straight in the eyes and explained, "I couldn't finish it. It's too much!"

His gaze fell at the half-empty bowl in front of me.

I continued, "Just now I already had a lot of the food Minnie made. And now, I've had half of the pumpkin soup." Then I lowered my voice a little and grumbled, "I'm not a pig!"

He chuckled. "I'm not interested in rearing pigs either." As he spoke, he pulled the bowl in his direction and started drinking it.

I was dumbfounded. I had used that spoon, and I had dipped it into the soup.

And he drank the soup with the same spoon. It was too intimate!

Still looking at him, I felt my cheeks burned up.

He put down the bowl as he had finished the soup. Then he looked at his watch and said, "It's still early. Let's go out for a walk later."

Eight in the evening indeed wasn't too late, but it was raining.

I got up, looked out the window to confirm, and then back at him. I said, "It's raining outside."

"Then we'll wait until the rain stops," He brought the bowl into the kitchen, and he seated me on the sofa.

He continued, "You have to do some exercise. A pregnant woman shouldn't sit all day long. You need to walk for around one to two hours a day."

I was surprised at his knowledge in this field. Then, I noticed the book he was reading from the corner of my eyes. It was "The Pregnancy Book".

Oh.

It turned out that Hendrix was absorbed by a pregnancy book moments ago.

Noticing my gaze, he coughed, "From now on, we'll go out to have a walk every day."

I nodded and asked, "What other books did you buy?"
