My Pretty Sweetheart (Arianna)

Chapter 316

No one would vote against such an advantage. So, the meeting ended earlier than expected.

Coming out of the meeting room, Nerissa blocked my way and looked at me, "Arianna, let's talk."

She must want to talk to me about Advancer Tech. I nodded at her, then took a glance at Irvin, "We'll

have lunch together later?"

He nodded, "I'll wait for you."

Looking at the interaction between Irvin and me, Nerissa frowned unhappily. After Irvin walked away, All rights © NôvelDrama.Org.

she looked at me and suggested, "Let's go to my office to talk."

I nodded, "Sure."

Nerissa's office was decorated with a lot of flowers, making it very cozy. After we entered the office, she

gestured for me to sit down and poured me some coffee.

Then, she went to sit in the chair behind her desk, and she didn't go straight to the point on Advancer

Tech. Instead, she looked at me and asked, "How are you and Hendrix doing lately?"

As our families, she had all the right to ask such a question. I answered without much emotions, "We're

not seeing or talking with each other."

She nodded and didn't make any unnecessary remarks on our relationship. Then, she continued to

ask, "What are you two going to do now?"

"I don't know yet," I shrugged. I had been unforthcoming when answering her, and she seemed to be a

little dissatisfied with my attitude. However, she didn't say much about it. She only said, "You're married

to Hendrix. No matter what the other party did wrong, you should solve the problem together so that

you can have a happy marriage. You shouldn't put the blame on your partner. It would only push them

away from you."

Nerissa tried very hard to persuade me, "Arianna, I know that you've been wronged, and you went

through a lot of hardships. But you need to tell us about it. We're your family, not your enemies. You

can share it with us. Yes, you can blame or resent Hendrix, but he’s your husband. You should have

talked things through with him if there's disagreement, not running from reality."

I lowered my eyes and felt a little annoyed. She was right, but I was afraid that I couldn't stand to live

under the same roof with Hendrix at the moment.

Seeing that she was about to continue, I interjected, "Aunt Nerissa, we're at the company, not at home.

Let's discuss this at home if you want. I believe you asked me here because you want to talk about

Advancer Tech, right?"

I understood that she was saying those words out of kindness, and I even felt that she was correct.

However, it was always easier said than done.

Seeing that I was getting impatient, Nerissa sighed softly and changed the topic, "Well then, let's talk

about business. You used Advancer Tech as the vouch. Have you thought about what would happen if

you can't change anything in a year?"

I raised my eyebrows at her and asked, "Aunt Nerissa, are you asking this for the Roberts or the

Grangers? If it's for the Roberts, you don't have to worry. I definitely have a plan if I dare to risk

Advancer Tech. Besides, Grandpa had already given Advancer Tech to me when he passed away two

years ago. I'm in charge of the company now. To put it bluntly, it's my own decision to make."

Nerissa was unhappy to hear my reply. Pulling a long face, she said in a solemn voice, "Father gave

you Advancer Tech because he trusted you. He must be hoping that you can lead Advancer Tech to

make its name on the international market and work for the prosperity of the Roberts family together

with Hendrix. I don't think it's for you to use it as a mortgage."

Seeing that she had turned bitter, I got up and looked at her, "As you said, Grandpa trusted me. Since

he trusted me, no one can change my mind about the decision I make. Not even Grandpa. After all, we

never doubt people that we chose to trust, do we?"
