Chapter 1242 Sneaking In Late At Night
The door opened, but the person standing outside was the housekeeper who had come to deliver some milk.
The sparkle in Arielle’s eyes vanished.
It’s not Vinson.
She couldn’t help but laugh at herself.
Did I overestimate how important I am to him?
But how could someone change so quickly?
“Good evening, Mrs. Nightshire.” The housekeeper beamed. “I made you some warm milk. It should help you sleep better. Sweet dreams.”
Arielle snapped out of her thoughts and forced a smile. “Thank you for the trouble.”
The housekeeper hastily shook her head. “Not at all! It’s part of my job.”
Even so, she couldn’t help but be reminded herself of how different every individual could be. There was no way Vinson would ever say such kind remarks to her.
Not wanting to bother Arielle any longer, the housekeeper handed the glass of milk over and left the room.
Arielle stared at the glass despondently before chugging it down.
Despite not being fond of milk, she was willing to try anything that would help her sleep.
After that, she washed up and tucked herself in bed.
It was already late. The room was now dark and quiet, and all the housekeepers had turned in for the day.
Arielle tossed around in bed for a while. She wasn’t sure if it was due to the warm milk or the therapeutic candles, but she soon began to feel sleepy.
But just as the woman dozed off, she suddenly heard the door click.
Someone’s in here.
Who could it be at this hour?
Arielle frowned but remained still, not wanting to alert the intruder.
