My Pretty Sweetheart (Arianna)

A black BMW was parked on the side of the road. I thought the driver was going to stop there, so I turned around and walked in another direction blankly.

"Arianna!"

I was shocked by the unfamiliar male voice coming from behind me. When I looked back, I saw the window of the BMW rolling down, and a handsome man's resolute face appeared.

Why was he here?

"Mr. Granger, what a coincidence to meet you here!" I smiled and tried to cover up my embarrassment.

He seemed haughty and cold. His gaze fell on my bare feet. I had earlier removed my shoes as my feet began to bleed from the long walk.

Being observed by him made me feel a little awkward. Yet, there was nowhere to hide, so I could only laugh dryly.

"Get in the car!" he said emotionlessly.

"No, thanks!" I refused instinctively. "I just came out for a walk and will return soon.

Thanks for offering a ride."
