My Pretty Sweetheart (Arianna) novel Chapter 1083

Hendrix stopped and propped his head on my shoulder and smiled. Most of the time, we couldn't feel happiness as we were striving towards our goals. People imagined happiness to be something far off, something far away to be attained, and they projected that expectation everywhere they went.

It was the same for everyone. As they envied after others' supposed happiness, others also envied theirs.

For about half of the night, I became so drowsy that I fell half-asleep. In a daze, I felt that someone put something on my finger. I couldn't help muttering as I retreated my hand, asking, "What is it?"

Hendrix's low and deep voice came over, "Our wedding ring!" As he finished speaking, he bit on my lip lightly.

I was stunned and woke up. Then, I got into his arms and kissed him on the lips. I then said in a sleepy voice, "We're already an old couple!"

When I left Jarold City, I had left the ring and bank card in the villa. I didn't expect him to have had them both with him the entire time.

Under the dim lighting, Hendrix smiled faintly, but his voice was still a little hoarse as he said, "We're just thirty. We've just hit our peak, so we're not old at all!"

Then, he turned over and pressed himself on my body. He found my lips and kissed me deeply.

Since the Lancille Village project had been halted, it was inevitable that the following days would be a little idle for both of us.

However, because of that, we became even more anxious.

After Naomi recuperated during that period of time, she was discharged from the hospital. She went to the Milton Group early in the morning and asked Linda and I out for a meal together.

"It's useless for you two to keep being anxious. Whether the project will resume or not depends on our leader. It's useless for us to keep worrying about it. Why don't we go out for a nice meal and treat ourselves?" she muttered in the car.

The weariness on Linda's face was obvious, and the makeup on her face was a little cakey. It seemed that she had been really worried recently.

I was in much better shape. Although Hendrix was quite busy, he still went home every night. He would try not to make me stay up too late, and I could get a good night's sleep.

The Ocean Premium Restaurant, just like its name, was the most exquisite restaurant in the area, and the food was pricey.

We did not enter a private room, but Naomi still seemed quite familiar with the receptionists as she greeted them.

A waiter went forward to lead the way and brought us to a table. Naomi ordered some dishes and looked at us, saying, "They mostly serve seafood here. You don't have to worry about getting fat. You should just eat at ease."

At a loss for words, Linda quipped, "Do you really think that we're going to be worried about getting fat?"

Fortunately, the atmosphere was good, the service was great, and the food was beautiful. After that meal, we were all in high spirits.

So, Naomi ordered some red wine for the occasion, and she invited Linda to partake in a glass.

Under the influence of alcohol, Naomi and Linda talked about Sebastian. Naomi was a little frustrated as she complained, "It's really meaningless to be in a relationship. To be honest, Linda, I envy you very much now. You have your own children, your own home, and you raise your own children yourself. Although it is a little tiring for you, at least there are no more annoying men bothering you. How good for you."
