My Pretty Sweetheart (Arianna) novel Chapter 911

I fainted right there in the lounge and with my last trace of consciousness, I saw the servants rushing in. I felt relief flood my heart.

When I woke up, it was without a doubt that I was in the hospital. As expected, Kaleb was here.

"You're awake?" He asked flatly.

Tiago frowned. "Why did you try to kill yourself?"

I looked at Westin and his face was cold. I then looked over at the expressions of Tiago and Kaleb. I laid there stunned for a moment.

So, Westin didn't tell Kaleb that I tried to pull a scheme against him?

I gave him a look and turned to look at Kaleb. I said in a hoarse voice, "Mr. Kaleb, I'll trade my life fortheirs!"

Kaleb frowned. "Trade for what?"

"I'll exchange my life for theirs!"

Kaleb jeered. "One life for four. Where do you get your confidence from?"

"Aren't you curious about my connection with the Milton family?" I asked, my throat aching with every word I spoke.

He raised his eyebrows. "Does it have anything to do with me?"

I...

I looked at him speechlessly for a moment. After gathering my thoughts, I said, "The Milton family has been looking for me everywhere, and you had plans to send me back. Why not just do me a favor and let my friends go?"

"Hey!" Tiago raised his voice at me. "Has your brain turned to mush, woman? How dare you talk about this in front of Mr. Kaleb!"

I pressed my lips together and didn't say anything, my gaze filled on Kaleb.

After a while, Kaleb said, "So, what's your relationship with the Milton family?"

"It's much more complex than you'd think it is!" I had no choice but to confess. They were afraid of the Milton family. The stronger and more complex my connection with the Milton family seemed, the bigger the advantage I had to bargain with them with.

His lips curled, but he still did not speak. After looking at me for a moment, he said, "The terms and conditions are mutual."

I was stunned for a moment, then sobered up. "What do you want?"
