19 UNUSUAL FEELINGS

ARIEL’S POV

“Oh Ariel, it’s so good to see you again,” Mason exclaimed, giving me a radiant smile. He looked quite dashing in the suit he was wearing, holding an umbrella as the rain poured relentlessly.

Mason happened to be Andre’s younger brother. Both of them used to assist their parents in running the family business until Andre decided to start his own.

I was taken aback to see him here, as I thought he was still in Canada. He had told everyone that he would be coming to New Haven in the next three months, so his presence came as a big shock to me. I was certain Andre would have the same reaction. However, I had a hunch about the reason behind his unexpected visit.

Regardless, Mason wasn’t exactly known for his gentle nature. Most of the time, he was annoying and a real pain. With a short temper, it was best to avoid getting on his bad side. If provoked, he could easily become violent.

“Aren’t you going to let me in?” he asked, maintaining his smile.

‘Oh, sorry,” I apologized, quickly stepping back to welcome him inside. Once he entered the house, I closed the door behind him.

Mason glanced around, grinning at everything. However, that smile seemed too forced for him to genuinely appreciate the surroundings. He always found a way to criticize people, even if there was no fault to be found.

“This place looks nice,” he commented, but his tone and expression contradicted his words. ” But why didn’t you guys get yourselves a mansion?”

“Andre didn’t want to,” I replied. “We won’t be staying here for long, so he chose a regular apartment.”

“That’s crazy!” Mason chuckled. “I mean, how can you all be comfortable living in a place like
