“Mom, I suddenly remember that there’s a matter I need to discuss with Vinson. Do you want to join me?”
When Arielle turned to face Susanne, she had already buried the emotions she was experiencing moments ago deep inside her heart.
In response, the older woman shook her hand. She didn‘t want to bother the couple.
“You go. I’m just going to read the newspaper here and water the plants. Just come back during the evening and join me for dinner.”
Truthfully, Arielle intentionally asked her about it. When she heard her mother-in-law didn’t want to go with her, she let out a sigh of relief.
It wasn’t that she didn’t want to let Susanne follow her. It was because she wanted to keep what she planned to discuss with Vinson a secret for the time being, Susanne’s condition.
“Sure. I’ll have dinner with you later.”
“Mhm,” Susanne replied softly.
After grabbing her bag, Arielle went to the garage and drove to Nightshire Group. As a result of what happened last time, the receptionist allowed Arielle to go upstairs directly.
When she arrived at Vinson’s office, she noticed he wasn’t inside. Thus, she waited on a couch for him.
As she waited, she sent a text message to Andrea about Susanne’s condition.
Just as she was engrossed in her chat with Andrea, the door to the office opened. She turned to the door and saw Vinson entering the room with a frown.
“What happened?” Arielle stood and approached him.
It surprised him to see her in the office since she was so angry last night that she just ignored him. He was still wondering how he should cheer her up when she actually came to visit him.
Does this mean she’s not angry at me anymore?
When he heard her question, he said, “He is here!”
