It did not feel good to be suspected of something, but what mattered more was that I did not feel strange at all sitting in the car. This made me very worried along the way.

While I was caught up in my thoughts, Hendrix announced in a low voice, "We're here."

Only then did I come to my senses. I opened the door and got out of the car. I expressed my gratitude. "Thank you, Mr. Roberts."

The rain had gotten lighter; I could easily make a run for the villa from the roadside.

"Wait," Hendrix called out to me all of a sudden.

In the blink of an eye, he stepped out from the driver's seat and went to the trunk. When he came back, he stood quietly with a black umbrella in his hand.

His abrupt consideration made me a little uncomfortable. While I was distracted, Hendrix asked coldly, "Don't you want to get out of the car?"

"Oh. Oh, thank you," I stuttered.

Right after I said that, a familiar voice could be heard nearby.

"Arianna."

Hendrix and I turned our heads at the same time, and we saw that it was Irvin.
