Mr billionaire's regret chasing his irresistible wife by Gabby Emmanuel

Chapter 94

Finding common ground.

(ARIELLE'S POV)

"Can we talk?" Dwayne's deep voice came through the phone.

I paused for a moment, before responding, "Sure."

"I don't mean at your place. At a restaurant or somewhere outdoors."

"That's fine," I responded.

"Alright, I'll come pick you up in two hours."

"Alright," I said, and the call ended.

I sighed and dropped the phone on the couch beside me. Since our last argument, my friendship with Dwayne had been quite distant. He still called to check in on me, and Maverick, but he didn't visit in a week.

Now, I wasn't mad at him as his actions were justifiable, but I couldn't blame myself either. He wanted more than I was willing to give at the moment.

I missed him though, and wanted to iron things with him which was why I had agreed to go out with him.

"Hey, baby, I'm going out for a bit," I called out.

Maverick, who was playing with his toys a few meters away from me, looked up. "Where are you going, Mommy?"

"I have an errand to run," I said quickly. There was no way I was going to tell him that I was meeting with Dwayne, else he would cry to tag along.

"Will Jessica come over?" He asked after his nanny.
