Chapter 1665

Men were more rational. Pedro was not too surprised and said some pertinent words. "Eddison has a lot of support. All the business bigshots inJarold City need to show respect and be wary of him everytime. We can't refuse the dinner tomorrow, so we should think about how to deal with it.”

"What's there to think about? We won't go!” Aaron suddenly turned emotional. When he mentioned the Forbes family, he still looked disdainful. "Bothmy uncle and Eddison are not the same kind of people. Arianna is a member of the Reid family. We don't have to suck up to him. I don't believe thathe'd come to Reid Manor and take Arianna from us if she doesn’t go!”

"Young people are still too impulsive." Pedro sighed slightly. "Originally, we came forward to help Hendrix for business in Jarold City, and it wasconsidered a private contest with the Forbes family. There is no right or wrong in business competition. But now, outsiders only see the son of theForbes family being injured by Hendrix, and no one knows that Arianna went through such a thing. If we don't go to the dinner, it will prove that we areguilty as we dare not face the Forbes family. At that time, Eddison will get the Forbes family to antagonize Roberts Group in front of the members ofthe Chamber of Commerce. I am afraid that the Roberts Group will not be able to progress in the future.”

His words were reasonable, but Aaron was still not convinced. He said with anger, "No one knows? Well, if I don't make everyone aware of what thatb*stard did. I'm not Aaron Reid!"

With this, he stood up and said while tidying up his clothes. “Wait here, I will find justice for you.”Then he angrily strode out. He didn't even care whether I would stay with the Roberts or go back to Reid Manor.

I was worried, seeing him hot-headed. I quickly contacted Emma on WhatsApp and asked her to inform Charles about this. He would be preparedand stop Aaron fram making matters worse

After Aaron left. there was no more discussion about whether or not to attend the dinner. Since it was too late, Pedro left with Valerie first.

Hendrix helped me upstairs, into the bedroom, and helped me wash up and change my clothes. He was silent all the way, but he was not impatient atall. He looked even thinner after taking off his suit jacket.

“You won't eat a decent meal if I'm not here?" My voice was choked with sorrow.Hendrix took off my slippers and slowly helped me onto the bed. "Since you're not here, the food doesn't taste good."novelbin

His words were faint and emotionless, but it made my heart ache

I felt this way when I had to stay inReid Manor as well. Hendrix and.

had been ‘together for ten years. Hehad long been an important part ofmy kt life. Without him, I had nothing tolook forward to. Content belongs toNovelDrama.Org -

After tucking in the quilt, Hendrix got up and walked into the cloakroom. When he came out again, he held two documents in his hand

He opened one of them and handed it to me.

I took it over and took it outcuriously: “After seeing it clearly, ASfrowned and said, "Didn't you handthis“over to the Milton family?”Content belongs to NovelDrama.Org

Hendrix frowned and lowered his eyes, not saying a word.

I knew that he had another thing to hide from me.

Putting aside the documents, I let out a long sigh of relief. "Tell me about anything else that you've hidden from me.""There's nothing else." Hendrix didn’t hesitate at all.

"What is this?" I pointed to another piece of paper and asked.

After Hendrix finished listening, he stared at it for a while. He seemed to think of something and was lost in thought."What's wrong?” I pushed him

Hendrix came to his senses and forced a smile. "What will you do if I say it's the divorce agreement?”
