My Pretty Sweetheart (Arianna)
Chapter 373

Kelsey looked at me with sincerity in her eyes. I was stunned for a moment. "What's Josiah's reason for doing this?"

"I told you that something happened between Hendrix and Josiah in the past. You can ask Hendrix."

Upon hearing this, I frowned. "Why did the Moore Family lay a finger on the Roberts family then? Since Andrea likes Hendrix and both her parents dote on her so much, how were they harsh enough to let Andrea do such a thing to a man she likes?"

All of a sudden, Kelsey sneered. "Director Reid, now I know why you were mentioned that time by the Roberts Group. Do you think that Andrea's parents are stupid? They knew that love changes and that Andrea probably only likes Hendrix so much because he is unattainable to her. Her parents were just trying to use the fact that their daughter likes Hendrix to take advantage of the Roberts family."

After a pause, she continued. "Hendrix said that he went to Jarold City to develop himself due to his own ambitions. Also, the city was booming with potential and opportunities. However, if you think about it from the Jarold City businessmen's perspective, they probably didn't want to share the benefits that they have with him. It's because with him out of the equation, they could get greater and better shares among themselves. Do you think they were able to accept him easily?"

I frowned. The reason Hendrix went to Jarold City was the abundance of resources and information. These were what fuelled his big ambitions. Nevertheless, what Kelsey said was indeed correct as nobody wanted their slice of the pie being snatched away.

Both Andrea's parents had indeed found a great excuse to keep the Roberts family close by their side when and if Andrea and Hendrix got together.

If things were to happen in such a way, the Moore family wouldn't lose anything. Instead, they'll grow stronger as they could take advantage of whatever they want from Hendrix.

But what exactly happened in the past between Hendrix and Josiah?

"I almost forgot most of the details that happened. Kelsey, thank you for telling me this, but I have my own path to walk on now. I would risk my position if I were to help you. I can't take my future lightly."

I knew that I wasn't a good person. I might be soft-hearted, but that didn't mean that I would help everybody.

Plus, if the Moore family failed in keeping the Roberts family close to them, Hendrix would most likely become their enemy, along with Josiah. Things were not going to look well for Hendrix and me as we were both husband and wife.

And if I were to offend Calvin, things would definitely look bad.

The glimmer of hope in Kelsey faded when she heard my words but she didn't give up just yet. "Director Reid, I know what you're worried about. What if I promise to help you and do whatever you want me to in the future? I know that I can join the Moore family and feed you with the information you need as long as I leave Calvin's side."

Join the Moore Family?

I pursed my lips and looked at her. "Nobody is going to be stupid enough to let you mingle with them. Valerie and Pedro would definitely replace out about our history if they were to investigate." Kelsey laughed and said, "Do you think that they will be paying attention to this?"

"You can't possibly erase your experience with working at the Roberts Group in your resume." It'll be weird if she didn't have any job experience since graduation as she was a valedictorian and such a capable person.

She looked at me. "As long as you ask, Aaron will help you, right?"

I was shocked once again about how well she knew about the people around me.

Kelsey sat up straight subconsciously as she realized that I was looking at her. "Director Reid, don't worry. I know all about this because I was looking for clues and information ever since you left Ucrebury. After I discovered Calvin's true colors, I knew you were the only who could help me."
