"Mr. Roberts, Arianna's been working here while you guys have been in Jarold City. Are you guys planning to be separated fromeach other?" Unexpectedly, Naomi chose that moment to bring it up.
Hendrix's dark eyes fell on me. Not looking away, he said, "No, wherever she is, that's where | will be too."
“Wow! Is this a show of affection? So sweet!" Naomi said coyly.
Then she noticed Rowane's pale face, "Miss Zanes, you are Mr. Roberts’ colleague, you must be used to this by now."Rowane gave a faint smile, "| usually work in Jarold city and rarely see Miss Reid, so I'm not sure."
Naomi frowned slightly and quipped, "Ah, don't employees call her Mrs. Roberts? Why do you address her as Miss Reid? That'sso distant.”
"Miss Reid and | rarely see each other, so | didn't have the opportunity to get used to it," Rowane said without any otheremotions.
Naomi pursed her lips and sent me a sideways glance. She gave me a look | couldn't decipher so | didn't react to it.Amoment then, she tilted her body, and toppled a glass of water in Rowane's direction. It spilled onto her very expensive dress.
Naomi apologized while she tried to help wipe up the spill. "Miss Zanes, I'm really sorry. Why don't you go to the bathroom to dryyourself?"
Rowane's brows creased in displeasure, the only show of anger she allowed. She was able to control her emotions very well.
Seeing that she was gone, Naomi spoke to me as if Hendrix was not sat right next to me. "Miss Reid, can't you see that thiswoman has a crush on your man?"

"F*ck!" She cursed. "Arianna, you must have gone mad. What do you mean? Do you mean that you're going to let her just stealyour man?"
Hendrix was still here! What is she up to? | didn't know what to answer, so | pretended that | didn't hear her.She snorted at my silence and said, "You guys aren't fighting, are you?"After a pause, she looked at Hendrix and asked fearlessly, "Mr. Roberts, you didn't cheat, did you?"
Hendrix's eyes darkened and he faced me fully. | thought he would be angry, but instead, he was calm as he answered. "I'msingle-minded!"
