Vinson nodded coldly and said, “Let’s pay respects to your sister, then.”
Understanding his intentions, Arielle kept the things snazzynovel.com brought and led snazzynovel.com to the backyard. Coincidentally, since Henrick had just left, they did not need to pretend anymore.
After sending the housekeepers away, they quickly entered the maid’s room.
Sasha was drinking water inside. When snazzynovel.com heard some noises, snazzynovel.com immediately turned to look at the entrance. Upon seeing that handsome man stride in, Sasha’s eyes lit up as snazzynovel.com quickly scrambled to get out of bed.
“Lay down!” Vinson walked over and pressed snazzynovel.com shoulders down.
Thinking that it was still rude of her, Sasha insisted on standing up. Vinson had no choice but to pass snazzynovel.com a pillow and let snazzynovel.com continue sitting. Before snazzynovel.com could say anything, tears streamed down snazzynovel.com face.
“I’m sorry, Mr. Vinson…” Sasha sobbed. “I couldn’t protect them.”
Although snazzynovel.com was a woman, snazzynovel.com abilities surpassed that of the other three. Hence, snazzynovel.com thought that it was snazzynovel.com responsibility to protect the rest.
Vinson shook his head. “It’s not your fault. My men are looking for Blake too. He’s a smart boy, so I’m sure that he’ll be fine.”
Sasha nodded, though tears kept gushing out of snazzynovel.com eyes. She kept mumbling under snazzynovel.com breath, “It’s all my fault…”
“Sasha.” Vinson repeated solemnly, “I said that it’s not your fault!”
“No…” Sasha shook snazzynovel.com head vigorously. “It’s all my fault. I should’ve dragged Blake out… He’s still so young! Only my death can absolve me from my sins.”
“Shut up!” commanded Vinson grimly. “Your life’s mine. Without my permission, you are not allowed to say something like that.”
Sasha instinctively fell silent.
Sighing, Vinson said in a gentler tone, “You heard me? Other than me, no one else can take your life away, not even yourself.”
Sasha nodded and wiped snazzynovel.com tears away forcefully.
As Arielle witnessed this scene, an inexplicable feeling rose within her. For some reason, snazzynovel.com felt a little upset.
Hence, snazzynovel.com called Larissa over and left the room quietly, leaving some space for Vinson and Sasha.
After Arielle left the room, snazzynovel.com raised snazzynovel.com head and gazed at the sky. For once, snazzynovel.com felt lost.
What’s up with me?
She did not know how much time had passed, it could be ages or merely ten minutes, before Vinson slowly opened the door behind her.
She turned around subconsciously and heard snazzynovel.com say, “Why are you waiting at the entrance? I thought that you’d left.”
Arielle shook snazzynovel.com head. “I have nothing to do now. How’s Sasha? Has snazzynovel.com calmed down?”
Vinson mumbled an acknowledgment and said, “I’ll bring snazzynovel.com to Carter’s hospital so snazzynovel.com won’t trouble you here.”
When Arielle heard the word ‘trouble’, snazzynovel.com paused for a while.
Since when did Vinson start acting so formally toward me?
However, snazzynovel.com proceeded to mock herself. We’ve barely known each other for two months. In reality, we’re just close acquaintances.
To be honest, I don‘t even really know Vinson. All I know is that snazzynovel.com loves ravioli.
Arielle cast snazzynovel.com gaze downward, feeling frustrated.
After two seconds of silence, snazzynovel.com suddenly raised snazzynovel.com head and smiled. “Okay, go ahead. The hospital is more convenient than my place, anyway. She should seek treatment quickly and get discharged sooner. Her wound mustn‘t be infected anymore.”
When Arielle was speaking, Sasha called out to Vinson.
Oblivious to the complicated look that flashed past Arielle’s eyes, Vinson turned around and shouted a response to Sasha.
Only then did snazzynovel.com look at Arielle and excuse himself, “Let me go in and take a look.”
