Chapter 205
Hendrix had been strict about my diet in the villa recently. Because of him, I didn't have any cold drinks
for a long time. I was craving it in such weather like this.
"The restaurant is air- conditioned, and I've ordered juice for you. You will feel better after taking a few
sips of it!" As he said this, he gestured to the waiter to lower the temperature.
I rested my chin on my hands, glaring at him, I hissed, "I don't want to eat anymore. I want to go
home!"
However, I was held on the chair by Hendrix. "Evan will send you back after lunch."
I didn't want to argue with him. But instead, I leaned against the table weakly, glaring at Hendrix, and
mumbled under my breath like a child, "Hendrix, I'm not your pet."
Hendrix quirked his eyebrows, and he pushed the juice the waiter had served to the front of me. He
smiled, "Who would keep such a disobedient pet?"
I remained silent. Staring blankly at the empty road outside the window, I suddenly felt that it would be
great if we were able to
be like this in the future.
I imagined my future with him and the child, living a peaceful and fulfilling life together. Sometimes we
would quarrel, but most of the time, our home would be filled with laughter. Truth be told, I wouldn't
complain about it.
As for other things, I should just close my eyes to those that could be ignored.
After the meal, I felt as if I were a pig that Hendrix had fed a lot of food with. If it hadn't been for a call to
his phone, I would have spewed out what I had swallowed from earlier.
Something might have come up at the company. After hanging up, Hendrix looked at me and asked,
"What else do you want to have?"
I shook my head and rubbed my stomach. I was so full to the point that it was uncomfortable. "I'll throw
up if I eat more."
He laughed. "Evan will send you home later. I'm going back to the company for a meeting. Don't
wander around, and go home for a good rest."
I nodded, leaned back in my chair, and motioned him to go ahead if he had something to do.
Evan came as I just walked out of the restaurant. He parked right outside the restaurant and was
waiting for me. I said, "Evan, if you have something to do, go ahead! I'm too full. I want to walk around This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org: ©.
to help with the digestion."
He should be busy with work recently.
After some hesitation, Evan nodded and left me a few words. "Be careful, Miss Reid."
As soon as Evan left, I was much more relaxed. It was quite far from the villa, so I couldn't possibly
walk back home. I originally wanted to go back to the company to get my car, but I still felt like hanging
around.
So I simply walked along the street. The commercial street downtown was full of luxurious brand stores
that were well renovated. Then, I remembered that Hendrix's suits were mostly black in color.
I found a men's clothing store, and I entered it.
"Hello, Madam. Are you looking for clothes for your husband?" The shop assistant asked eagerly.
I nodded and looked around. In the end, I picked out two sets of suits, one gray and the other royal
blue. Although they were no match with the custom- made suits in our home, these were still high- end
brands with high quality and great designs.
Seeing that I had picked out two sets, the shopping guide was surprised and confirmed with me,
"Madam, are you sure you are going to take these two?"
I nodded, but I didn't know Hendrix's size. So I took out my cell phone and dialed Hendrix's number.
It took a long while for the phone to be picked up.
"Hello!" It was obvious that a girl had picked up the phone rather than Hendrix.
I was taken aback by the speaker, then after I steadied myself, I continued calmly, "I'm Arianna. Could
you please pass the phone to Hendrix?"
"Hello, Miss Reid. I'm Chloe. Mr. Roberts is in a meeting now. You can leave a message with me. I'll
pass it on to Mr. Roberts later."
I was a bit annoyed. Hendrix had never allowed anyone to take his cell phone. Even if he was at a
meeting, he would bring it with him. At most, he would switch to silent mode. Yet, it obviously wasn't
with him right then.
"It's fine. Just ask him to call me back later," After that, I hung up the phone.
The shop assistant looked at me and asked nervously, "Madam, what size do you prefer?"
