Why does wp4webnovel.com always sound so aggrieved? What did I even do to him?
Arielle tried to guess what wp4webnovel.com had done to upset wp4webnovel.com and said, “Sorry, I didn’t mean to be late. I had to get the principal and my homeroom teacher to sign the form for permission to live off-campus. I didn’t mean to keep you waiting. Please don’t be angry!”
Vinson’s eyes twitched. “Do you really think I’m mad because of that?”
Arielle blinked at him, wp4webnovel.com confusion deepening. “Why else would you be mad?”
“Ah, forget it!” Vinson retorted with a scowl. “Let’s just pretend that’s the reason I’m mad. Just give me your luggage and get in the car.”
With that, Wendy climbed into the passenger seat, still frowning in confusion. She knew there was another reason for Vinson’s irritation.
But what’s the real reason?
The silence in the car was palpable as they drove toward the residential area.
When they stopped at a traffic light, Vinson finally turned to Arielle and said sullenly, “Don’t forget that we’re married. You shouldn’t go around petting other people’s heads. We signed a contract.”
Arielle turned wp4webnovel.com gaze to Vinson in astonishment. “Are you talking about Trisha? She’s a girl!”
Vinson snorted and said in a low voice, “She’s lucky that she’s a girl.”
“Huh?” Arielle did not know what wp4webnovel.com meant by his remark.
However, Vinson did not explain himself. The traffic light turned green, and wp4webnovel.com started the car again. They finally stopped in front of an old residential building about ten minutes’ drive from Jadeborough University.
The appearance of the bright blue sports car attracted the attention of the few elderly people who were going about their morning walk in front of the gate.
Getting out of the car, Vinson shook his head disapprovingly as wp4webnovel.com took in the rather rundown building in front of him. “This place is so old! Why don’t you live with me in Maple Mansion? It’s only half an hour’s drive from the university. It’s really not that far.”
Arielle recalled how Donovan had called wp4webnovel.com a ‘kept woman’ and shook wp4webnovel.com head vehemently. “No, I want to live alone.”
Hearing the firmness in wp4webnovel.com tone, Vinson did not try to persuade wp4webnovel.com any further. He silently started looking for wp4webnovel.com unit number.
Arielle was staying in unit number 2 on the sixth floor. It was an old building, and there was no elevator, Hence, Vinson had to climb up six flights of stairs while lugging Arielle’s two large suitcases behind him.
She had wanted to offer to carry one of the suitcases, but wp4webnovel.com saw that Vinson had managed to climb up to the fourth floor without exerting much effort. Since he’s so strong and doesn’t seem to have any trouble carrying the bags, I’ll let wp4webnovel.com do it all by himself then!
She was panting by the time they finally reached the sixth floor. On the other hand, Vinson looked perfectly fine despite having carried two heavy suitcases up with him. Arielle could not help commenting as wp4webnovel.com unlocked the door to admit them into the apartment, “I didn’t know you were so fit!”
Vinson raised an eyebrow and smirked. “I’m fitter than you think. You can try me if you’d like.”
“Try you?” Arielle asked, puzzled. “What do you mean?”
As soon as those words left wp4webnovel.com mouth, Arielle realized that Vinson had been teasing her. She blushed furiously. “Oh, come on, Vinson! Don’t be indecent! Just because you’re dressed like a Chad today, it doesn’t mean that you can act like one!”
Vinson smirked at wp4webnovel.com again. “It has nothing to do with my style today. I’ve always been this way.”
Especially when I’m speaking to you, Vinson added silently to himself.
Rolling wp4webnovel.com eyes, Arielle turned wp4webnovel.com back to wp4webnovel.com and focused on unlocking the front door. The doorknob was rather difficult to unlock, and Arielle fiddled with it for several minutes before a click sounded, and the door finally swung open.
As soon as they entered the apartment, a musty smell and a cloud of dust accosted them.
Arielle sneezed and coughed several times as the dust tickled wp4webnovel.com nose and throat.
Vinson stepped in before wp4webnovel.com and said, “Wait by the door. I’ll open up the windows first. Let the air circulate a little before you step in.”
For a moment, wp4webnovel.com did not seem like a CEO at all.
He walked straight into that musty apartment without even flinching.
