My Pretty Sweetheart (Arianna) novel Chapter 1327

She nodded. "I've recovered a long time ago. I'm thick-skinned, and it's just a minor injury. It didn't affect me much!"

I breathed a sigh of relief. I took the dried mango from her hand and said with a smile, "Thank you, but don't be so courteous from now on. We should thank you for what you've done. You helped Hendrix avoid a disaster."

Her face was blushing red. She smiled and replied, "You're too courteous, Mrs. Roberts. Back then, it was Mr. Roberts who saved me, but I became a burden."

"Let's go now, you shouldn't be standing for too long!" Hendrix hugged me and said. I nodded. Indeed, I had stood for too long, and my waist was extremely uncomfortable.

Estella smiled and said goodbye. The smile on her face was particularly bright.

After nodding, Hendrix took the bag from me and uttered, "Don't force yourself to do things you don't like from now on."

I smiled and responded, "She's also kind, and it's very sweet. Take a bite." Then I took a piece and handed it to him, and said uncertainly, "Estella seems to be much more lively than before!"

Hendrix, who had a piece of dried mango in his mouth, said, "Her head was injured last time and there were some complications."

I was dumbfounded. The doctor had said that she might've had a concussion when we were there in the hospital. I looked up at Hendrix and couldn't help asking, "She just became lively. Is this a consequence?"

Hendrix answered with a hum and spoke, "She did forget a lot of things. She even forgot Vincent, and sometimes her memory is in disarray."

I frowned. "Vincent?"

He nodded. "The boy who went to the hospital with us that day."

The elevator door opened and we arrived at the office. I didn't know where Hendrix had managed to get the delicious food on the table, and it was all the food I liked, no less.

Hearing this, I instinctively thought that something bad had happened to Anne. So I stood up abruptly and asked in a panic, "What happened?"

He grabbed his coat and looked at me. "Josiah was injured badly in the prison. I'll go to visit him." Then, he looked at Estella and said, "Miss Zanes,

please send Mrs. Roberts home later."

Then he left in a hurry.

I was a little taken aback. Josiah had been in jail safe and sound all this while, so how could something bad have happened to him? Could it be that Pedro had sent someone to cause him trouble because of what he did to Anne?

But knowing his personality, if Pedro had wanted to teach Josiah a lesson, he would have crippled Josiah the first time. Why did he find someone to go after him for a second time?
