My Pretty Sweetheart (Arianna)

Dunn followed Wynn and the others, while Emma and Aaron followed closely behind.

Hendrix and I were some distance behind. S~ᴇaʀᴄh the (ꜰind)ɴʘvel.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Walking side by side through the corridor, we enjoyed some alone time together. As I looked at the thin boy who had fallen to the back of the line. All sorts of feelings welled up in my heart as I sighed, "He's still so young. He doesn't know what it means to be a servant. Isn't it rather selfish of us to make an agreement with him where he has to protect Aurelia with his life?"

I didn't object to Hendrix's good deed, but he had made the agreement under very unfair terms. Although this was for Aurelia's sake, we couldn't guarantee if the boy would get wounded one day and develop evil thoughts once he had grown up.

"And," After a brief pause, I continued solemnly, "I feel that there's more to him than it seems. Although he looks like a child, he isn't as innocent as one. He's like a deep, stagnant pool of water... Just like that person.

While I was lost in thought, I felt my shoulder being wrapped in a warm familiar feeling. I turned around and saw Hendrix's hand holding onto my shoulder, pulling me into his embrace.

"Aurelia has a pure and innocent nature. We have to be very careful to preserve it." Hendrix took very good care of me and took each step forward steadily. He said this easily, which reassured me. "No one car stop my daughter from growing up peacefully. In a few days time, I will find a suitable opportunity to send the child away. At that time, I will need you to cover for me."

He had already taken everything into consideration.

I smiled and agreed, "If necessary, it's fine for me to be the bad guy here. Aurelia isn't very close to you. She shouldn't be estranged from you over this."

A husband and wife should understand these things and help each other. Only then could they live a happy life together.

Hendrix held my shoulder and rubbed it comfortingly. He lowered his head and smiled without saying anything. I wonder if he actually heard me.
