Chapter 1050 Jealous Vinson
Bjorn shook his head. Instead of giving her a direct answer, he gave her a mysterious reply. “She doesn’t need us to repay her kindness.”
Agnes’ eyes widened. “She doesn’t want anything from us?”
Bjorn nodded. “If not for Mr. Nightshire being Ms. Moore’s partner, I would have wanted to court her.”
“Don’t even think about it.” Agnes shook her head. “Didn’t you see the look on Mr. Nightshire’s face when you went to grab Ms. Moore’s sleeve?”
Bjorn chuckled. “That’s why I said ‘if.’ I wasn’t planning on acting on it.”
He was sure that if he were to act on that thought, one missing arm would be a mercy from Vinson. What was likelier was that he was going to lose his head too.
At Nightshire Manor, after Susanne had gone for a facial treatment, Arielle was about to ask Vinson what he wanted for dinner. Only then did she notice how dark his expression was.
Taken aback, she asked, “What’s the matter? Who made you mad?”
Vinson then shot her a disgruntled look and grumbled, “What did you say to Bjorn?”
“Oh, that.” Arielle scratched her head before continuing, “I just asked him to come to the launch event with his bionic arm when the product goes live.”
“Oh,” Vinson replied, but the dark expression stayed.
After two seconds of silence, Arielle suddenly said, “Vinson, don’t tell me you’re jealous because I had a private conversation with Bjorn.”
Vinson did not deny that as he said, “Is there a rule somewhere that states that I’m not allowed to be jealous?”
A laugh escaped Arielle. “All right, all right. Sorry. I was just too worried that Mrs. Seyward wouldn’t agree to let her son join a small company’s launch event. After all, to the Seyward family, Moore Group is just a lousy company with a bad reputation.”
It was only then Vinson’s expression lightened up. He then pouted and mumbled, “But I’m still jealous, so you have to make me feel better.”
“How?”
