My Pretty Sweetheart (Arianna)

Chapter 2129

In truth, they had frequently put on such a tit-for-tat scene at home in the following years. The thought of the two men falling out with each other as a result of the matter had even crossed my mind.

However, when this had happened, Aaron was at a point where he could say nothing in return. Instead of retorting loudly, he swallowed his anger and let it be.

It was not until Aaron's daughter was born that his utter defeat was slightly eased.

But this was in the future. As the parents of three children, we had to consider more than what we could have imagined.

After the Cultural City project was over, Hendrix kept his promise and supported Anne's idea to set up a bar. The Moore and the Roberts family had not been involved in that sector, so we were bound to make enemies for taking out a part of others' market share and profit. That was why we had to be more careful and alert.

After a moment's thought, I told Hendrix, "Tell Evan to come to the Roberts Mansion. I want to familiarize myself with bar- related information.

Anne isn't an adult yet. Let's make sure everything goes well for her."

"Tonight." Hendrix gave a slight nod and explained, "I had just ordered him to keep the public's opinion under control. Anne will return home to discuss with us at night after handling the affairs related to the Cultural City project."

"Alright." A family had to be honest in voicing out their thoughts to achieve the goal in mind with half the effort.

With that, a maid came in from the door and said, "Madam, there's a woman outside who wants to meet you."

"A woman?" Most of the guests who came and went had their names reported at once. Hearing such an address, I was in bewilderment. "Who is it?" "She identifies as Irvin's wife," the maid replied.

That would be Shirley.Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.

After she returned to Zuckerburg, we had yet to meet each other nor catch up.

"Send her in."

"Alright."

Upon receiving the order, the maid immediately went out to invite her in, but she came back alone. "Madam, that woman insists on not entering the house and said that you must personally head out to meet her."

What was going on? Why wouldn't she enter the house?

"Is she alone?" I stood up and walked to the door.

"Yes." The maid nodded and reminded me out of cautiousness, "She doesn't seem well. I'm worried that she's sick. Madam, you should be careful!" "I see. You may leave."

I felt rather upset as I sent the servant away.

Recently, even the servants at home looked down on Shirley. She used to be a gentle and kind woman, but every time she was around, others would only feel pity for her.

She was not a wicked person by nature, and she would never hurt anyone in her lifetime, let alone come all the way to spread her disease.

The only reason she would come to meet me was Irvin. I had no reason to reject meeting her.

I turned to look at Hendrix, who had

Hendrix said nothing, which meant that he had acquiesced.

Before I could reach the door, I heard Tobias's fawning voice, "Mr. Roberts, we're old friends. After so
