My Pretty Sweetheart (Arianna) novel Chapter 154

Hendrix looked at me, frowned, and said nothing.

I walked over to him and grabbed his hand. Then I said in a softer voice, "It's getting late already. Let's go home!"

"Are you worried about me?" He asked with a smile.

I ignored that question and asked him again, "Do you want to go home?"

He glanced at Aaron, who was looking at me. Then Hendrix nodded and said, "Sure, let's head back."

As he spoke, he pulled me into the car. Then, he looked at Josiah and said, "Take Arianna's car to the garage."

Aaron probably didn't want to go head to head with Hendrix, so he only stood there and looked at us while we drove away.

In the car.

I was looking out the window absent-mindedly. The city night lights flickered as we drove past them.

Then, I felt a sudden warmth on my belly. It was Hendrix's hand. I looked down at his hand, and I didn't stop him from feeling the baby.

"You're almost four months into the pregnancy," He said in a low voice, "Do you want to go for a trip?"

I looked back at him in a daze, couldn't figure out what he was thinking. He should be asking me about Aaron by then, but instead, he talked about something else.

"There are a lot of things going on with Advancer Tech," I said as I took his hand away from my belly. Then I continued, "The Roberts Group's auditing is almost done. Once the report is submitted, we still have to deal with Advancer Tech."

After a pause, I asked, "Hendrix, why did you put me in charge of the audits for Advancer Tech and the Roberts Group?"
