My Pretty Sweetheart (Arianna)

Chapter 26

Knowing that he did not want to see me, I sighed before approaching him as I exclaimed, "Hendrix, you

had way too much to drink. Let's go home!"

He squinted his eyes slightly before cracking a grin and spoke in a mocking tone, "Home?" He sounded

very dissatisfied as he continued, "Is that even a home?"

I frowned. Since I was pregnant, I was more prone to being agitated. If this was any normal day, I

would have just rolled with the punches. At this moment, however, I replied in quite a hostile tone, "If

that's not a home, then what is? If you don't want to see me, Hendrix, I will give Andrea a call and have

her come over to pick you up. Monique still has a business to run. You may not be short in money as a Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

big boss, but don't get in the way of her business!" My wrist was suddenly grabbed by him. Everything

seemed to happen in an instant as he pulled me onto his lap while hugging my waist with both arms.

He then gently reached into my collar with his crude fingers as he spoke in a sarcastic tone, "Anywhere

with you around isn't home. It's more like a... motel!"

He grabbed me violently with his palms the instant he was done saying that.

I grimaced from the pain while waves of anger rose in my heart as I flung his hand away before

furiously staring at him. "Since it's a motel to you, then don't bother returning ever again. Have the

divorce agreement signed and well no longer have anything to do with each other ever again!"

"Hiss!" Out of nowhere, he bit down on my shoulder. I nearly teared up from the pain.

"What's the matter? You got the money, the house, and the shares. Then, now you're ready to leave

me and go as far away as possible?" He held onto me tightly while he grinned coldly. "Arianna, is your

love only worth this little? Now you're ready to withdraw all of your love?"

Judging from how he was behaving, he was definitely drunk. My head was hurting a little as I wondered

why would I tried to reason with this drunkard.

I suppressed my anger as I held onto his face and spoke in a much gentler tone, "It's getting late,

Hendrix. Come home with me, okay?"

He remained silent as he closed his eyes and leaned against the couch behind him. However, he still

did not let go of me.

I was stunned for a moment as I had no idea what exactly he was thinking about. I said, "If you don't

want to return home with me, I'll give Andrea a call and have her pick you up, okay?"

Since he had no intention of returning to the mansion, I assumed he most likely wanted to stay with

Andrea. Leaving him alone here would only get in the way of Monique's business, hence I decided to

fish my phone out of my bag and was about to call Andrea.

However, before I could make that call, my phone was suddenly snatched away.

"Thud!" I could hear my phone being thrown and landed on the ground a distance away.

I was dumbfounded as I turned to look back at Hendrix. I was really close to breaking down. "What on

Earth are you doing, Hendrix?"

"You don't want to leave with me nor do you want anyone else to pick you up. Do you intend to die

here?"

"Let's go home!" he replied in an icy tone before carrying me in his arms and waddled out the door.

I was beyond terrified since I still have a child in my belly. If he was to accidentally drop me, it would be

too late for me to regret anything then.

I gave him a forceful tug but I dared not to be too hostile towards him. All I could do was say, "You're

drunk, Hendrix. Just put me down and I can walk on my own. I've just gone through a surgery and it'll

be bad if I slipped!"

He suddenly stiffened. I was unsure why, but he stared at me intensely with a pair of black eyes. He

spoke in a very peculiar tone, "Did you do all this just for revenge on me?"

I was dumbstruck and did not know what he was talking about. I shook my head and said, "No, I didn't

want to get revenge on you. I loved you so dearly; how could I? Just put me down and well head home,

okay?"

Goodness, there was no difference between a drunk man and a child!

I initially assumed he was still going to do something else but I never expected him to actually

obediently put me down before staring intensely at me with his charming eyes. "Let's go home!"

My head was aching a little as I held onto him.

"Sure! Let's go home!"
