My Pretty Sweetheart (Arianna)

Chapter 188

It was getting late, and I was exhausted. However, I couldn't fall asleep even after lying in bed for a

long while. I got used to sleeping with Monique.

Being alone in the huge bed increased the void in me. The windows were whistling from the wind.

The wind gusted, and it began to rain cats and dogs. Rain in the summer always came without

warning.

I couldn't sleep. Glancing at the clock on the wall, it was one o'clock at night. I was getting irked.

Hence, I put on my night robe and stood on the balcony.

Since I was caught in the rain on the balcony last time, Hendrix got someone to renovate the balcony

so that the rain couldn't come in, and I could only feel the chill wind.

However, it didn't calm me. I was so annoyed to the point that I felt suffocated. So, I simply went down

the stairs and headed to the yard.

Minnie had planted a lot of flowers in the yard of the villa. The flowers were crushed by the big rain

droplets, which seemed to fit the current situation.

I couldn't help but feel as though I was these flowers. In a trance, I walked into the rain to stand in the

middle of the yard.

Summer clothes were thin, so I was wet to the skin just for a short while. The rain wasn't cold. I felt

refreshed standing in the rain. Yet I couldn't help but still feel upset, so I crouched down, letting the

tears stream down my cheeks.

People had to work off their negative emotions. Thus, I decided to take advantage of the rain to have a

good cry.

I had been crying in the rain for quite some time when Minnie found me. Holding the umbrella, she

desperately tried to pull me back to the villa. However, she was old. There was nothing she could do if I

didn't want to move.

Distressed, she left an umbrella with me, and she ran back into the villa. When she came back out, she

put a raincoat on me, and she soothed, "Arianna, you can't torment yourself like this. Even if you don't

care about yourself, you should think of your child. What if something happens to the baby?"

I couldn't listen to what she said at all. I was on my knees, and I couldn't stop crying. I just wanted to

work off all my grievances and pain.

Although the summer rain wasn't cold, I was with a child after all. No matter how healthy I was, staying

in the rain for an hour wasn't a smart move.

Suddenly, my head spun.

Then I heard Minnie called out in surprise. "Sir, you're finally back!"

I turned around, and I saw Hendrix, dressed in a black suit, walking toward me with a cold gaze.

He picked me up and went into the villa.

His face was sullen. My eyes were uncomfortable after crying for a long time, and I didn't want to look Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.

at him. So, I just closed my eyes.

Since Minnie saw that Hendrix had returned, she didn't come forth to interfere anymore.

As soon as the bedroom door was closed, Hendrix took off my clothes and carried me into the

bathroom.

Since he didn't say anything, I remained silent too. It was terribly quiet.

As time went by, my frozen body regained warmth, and my eyes no longer as sore as before.

When I opened my eyes slightly, I saw Hendrix was looking at me with a gloomy face. His gaze was

deep and cold. After a long while, he asked, "Torturing yourself... Is it fun?"

I frowned. It was embarrassing to be watched by him when I was lying naked in the bathtub.

I got up, and I wanted to go back to the bedroom.

Before I could even step out of the bathtub, Hendrix pressed me back. "Lie down!"

My brows furrowed, and I pulled my face long. "I want to sleep!"

"Oh, and where are you going to sleep? Outdoor?" He pushed me back in the bathwater, and his face

was ghastly. "Why did you go out in the rain?"

I pulled over a bath towel and covered myself with it. Then I nonchalantly replied, "I was in a bad

mood."

"In a bad mood?" he sneered. "If everyone seeks death when they are in a bad mood, the streets

should be full of corpses right now. Arianna, are you torturing yourself or me?"
