My Pretty Sweetheart (Arianna) novel Chapter 1056

I didn't pay any attention to her at this time. After the meeting, I caught up with Hendrix directly.

Unexpectedly, I passed by Rowane, and as I was distracted, I was nearly tripped over by her.

Fortunately, I was close to Hendrix, so I threw myself directly at him. With so many people present, it was inevitable that I would feel embarrassed.

After I regained by balance, I apologized profusely.

Hendrix's gaze darkened as he glanced at Rowane and me. His gaze was cold and distant. Rowane was a little startled. Then, she lowered her head and left, seemingly a little aggrieved.

"What's the matter?" Hendrix asked when he saw her leave.

"Do you have time? Let's talk." I spoke, a little out of breath.

"Sure!" He turned around and walked out of the meeting room.

I followed him. After walking for a while, and seeing that there was no one around, I said, "The missing items have not been found yet, and the police are still investigating. As for the compensation, can we finalize it after the police have given their findings?"

He was walking in front of me, so I could not see his expression clearly. Instead of answering me, he went straight ahead.

He stopped suddenly. I was caught off guard and bumped directly into his back, and my nose was hurt from the impact.

He looked back and frowned. "Are you trying to seduce me?"

Me?!

The way of his mind was really baffling beyond words.

As I stepped back and distanced myself from him, I said, "Hendrix, you should seriously consider my words. Handling it this way would be more impartial!"
