Vinson looked at Arielle and uttered in a low voice, “Something has happened to the company, so I have to go back to settle it.”
A pause later, he added, “Do you want to come back with me?”
Without a hint of hesitation, Arielle replied, “Why would I stay here if you’re going back? Of course I‘m going to go back with you.”
They were a married couple, and they should be facing any issues together. Arielle no longer wanted to be separated from him anymore. Even if Nancy had yet to be held accountable by the law, Arielle was sure that Aaron would be able to deal with the matter himself. Hence, there was actually nothing for her to be worried about if she were to leave.
Upon hearing that the two of them were returning to their country, Aaron lowered his gaze, feeling slightly upset.
He did not want them to leave, especially not Arielle. After all, she was the closest person he had other than his mother.
A moment of hesitation later, he lifted his head and looked at Arielle. “Sannie, can you… Not go back there?”
His words took Arielle and Vinson aback. Arielle never thought that he would try to keep her around.
“Aaron, is there something you can’t decide on, or…”
Frankly, Aaron regretted his words the moment he uttered them.
Vinson had already said that something had happened to the company and that his presence was needed there. Furthermore, Arielle was unwilling to part with him, so it was not unusual for her to want to go back with him.
“Nothing. I was just asking.” Aaron curled his lips and turned to Vinson. “When are you planning to go back?”
Vinson glanced at Arielle before replying, “The earlier the better.”
It seems like it’s a tricky case for him to deal with.
With that thought in mind, Aaron schooled his features to a serious expression and said, “I’ll prep the visas for you right away.”
“Aaron!” Just as he turned to leave, Arielle called out to him.
He wheeled around, and Arielle stepped forward to hug him before whispering into his ear, “Vinson and I will be back. We’re still waiting for you to find a time to announce my identity.”
Aaron smiled, for she understood what he was thinking.
