My Pretty Sweetheart (Arianna)

Chapter 1386

I did not notice that something was amiss with Hendrix while we were heading back to the villa. As I was about to head upstairs to take a shower, he sat on the sofa and said bitterly, "So, you never considered telling me, huh? Aren't you aware that this hurts my feelings?"

I was stunned for a moment. When I looked over at him, I saw him giving me a resentful look. "No, that has never been my intention," I replied. "I wanted to tell you after discussing with my parents." He looked at me and said, "Why didn't you tell me then?"

I know it doesn't sound convincing, but I can't afford to let Anne wait any longer. So I decided to go to Asherton to find out more about organ trading. If I manage to find matching bone marrow for the transplant, we needn't keep worrying."

I nodded. When I saw his disgruntled look, I could not help but ask, "Can you take a few days off work though? Or do you have a lot of work to attend to?"
