My Pretty Sweetheart (Arianna) novel Chapter 7

"Are you not going to explain it?" A deep voice came from behind. I was stunned for a second until I realized it was Josiah who had followed me behind.

I was overwhelmed with a sense of dread but I tried to remain calm, "What to explain?"

He raised his eyebrows, "What if he wrongly accused you for pushing Andrea?"

I looked down to the floor as a sense of bitterness engulfed me, "It doesn't matter who did it, what matters most is that Andrea was hurt. Well, there must be someone to bear the responsibility."

"Fine!" Josiah went straight out of the villa with his medical kit in his hand.

Perhaps he went to check on Andrea's condition at the hospital.

It just took an hour to drive from the villa to Robert's mansion, but I felt as if it took forever as I was in complete drowsiness.

The thought of Andrea's baby and the stare from Hendrix before he left had made me out of breath.

I rushed out of the car as soon as it reached Robert's mansion because I felt sick inside. I tried to force everything out of my stomach but nothing came out.

"Oops, isn't this our Mrs. Roberts? Well, you must be so delicate now that only a ride could turn you into this." A voice came out of the door in a sarcastic and ridiculous manner.

Needless to say, after Johannes Roberts and his wife lost their lives in an accident a few years back, leaving Hendrix as their only child. Hendrix's uncle, Trent, became Dalton's only child.

Kennedy Roberts sneered at me while standing at the gate. She was Trent's wife, and she was also my aunt. Well, grudges seemed to take place a lot in the rich family, and I had been used to it all these years.

I tried to hide the uncomfortable feeling of my stomach while greeting her politely, "Nice to meet you, auntie!"

Kennedy had always disliked me. Despite my poor background, Dalton had treated me so well. Perhaps, this was the reason behind her grudge. It could also because the old man was so fond of Hendrix that he entrusted the whole family to Hendrix. I guessed Kennedy just couldn't accept this, and this explained why she vented all her anger on me.
