My Pretty Sweetheart (Arianna) novel Chapter 629

He hesitated for a moment before he asked, "Maybe Mr. Roberts is stuck in the traffic?"

My mind froze before I finally realized what was going on. Hendrix had promised to come back for lunch at 12.30 p.m., and it was already 12.28 p.m. Seeing how serious he was, I couldn't help but laugh.

"I know the road would be busy!" As soon as I finished my sentence, footsteps could be heard from outside the yard. Soon, Hendrix entered the house.

He stood in front of me, with his forehead covered in sweat. It seemed that he was in a hurry to return home.

His black orbs shined brightly as he said, "12.29 p.m. I'm not late, right!"

I couldn't help but laugh. I stood on my tiptoes and wiped the sweat off his face. I asked, "Did you run back?" The weather was so hot, he must have sweated a lot.

He smiled while taking off his jacket and said, "I was training my body!"

"There's no need to be in such a hurry next time. I'm right here, I won't run away," I said while I wiped his sweat. There was a warm feeling in my heart.

He smiled and said, "I know, but I wanted to see you sooner!"

I smiled. I didn't expect those sweet words to come out of his mouth. Then, Anne ran in and hugged him. She said in a soft voice, "Mr. Roberts, is your body not well? Why are you training?"

The innocent Anne did not know what she was implying. Hendrix picked her up as he looked at me with an intense gaze. He said, "Uncle has always been healthy!"

Rosa had prepared the meal and Hendrix went upstairs to take a bath. After he came down, he had something in his hands, which looked like a bag of documents.

He told Evan as he handed the documents to him, "You'll handle the admission procedures for Anne's school, and you will send her to school in a few days."

Evan took the documents and left. Hearing his words, Anne sighed with her hands on her chin, looking a little upset.

Of course, he noticed it and couldn't help but asked, "Don't you want to go to school?"

Anne shook her head and said, "It's not that I don't want to. It's just that I don't know anyone there, I'll

He nodded, but that didn't mean he agreed. He said, "You could always rest for a few more days."

I frowned and said, "It's been more than half a month. It's almost time anyways."

"How about working at Roberts Group?" he asked, putting a few clothes in the wardrobe. He glanced at the clothes in the wardrobe, and felt that I didn't like to wear these clothes. He paused before he said, "If you don't like these clothes, I could give you some new ones."

I shook my head and said, "It's okay!" They would be all customized by designers and would cost a high price. I never paid much attention to clothes, and had always put comfort first before anything else. No matter how much he bought, it would just be for display.

He didn't argue with me. Instead, he turned around and pulled me along to sit on the bed with him. He asked gently, "Think about it, how about returning to Roberts Group?"

I wanted to refuse him directly, but I didn't think I could dothat, considering his personality. Instead, I said, "Work aside, I would like to do something I'll like. Roberts Group is great, but the job there is a typical nine to five job for the sake of living. If it were in the past, I would be willing to go back to Roberts Group more than anyone else. However, since I have you now, I don't need to worry about life. I want to do whatever I want to do."

He smiled, looking convinced. He replied, "What do you want to do?"
