Chapter 50: Chapter 50 Arlo Seys, can you take me in for one night, please?!

------------

Arlo Seys cradled Ariel Morris as he carried her to the backseat of his sports car.

Dawn Sutherland and Nico Haynes watched as Arlo Seys’ car drove away.

Dawn Sutherland smiled meaningfully at Nico Haynes by his side and said, "Third Haynes, get your five million ready for me!"

Nico Haynes was momentarily taken aback and retorted, "It hasn’t reached the conclusion yet! Arlo was saying at the bar that he wanted to forget Ariel Morris! After all, today, Ariel Morris was in danger; that’s why Arlo stepped in to help. It’s just his kindness! It doesn’t mean Arlo will really accept Ariel Morris!"

Dawn Sutherland laughed, "Actions speak louder than insincere words! Arlo’s claim to forget Ariel is just self-deception."

Nico Haynes snorted, stubbornly expressing his opposition.

Dawn Sutherland glanced at him, smiling gently and elegantly, "Hmm, you’re pretty good at self-deception too!"

From the day Arlo met Ariel, it was destined that he couldn’t escape, couldn’t hide, couldn’t quit, couldn’t forget. It’s such an obvious fact, and you, Third Haynes, still placed a five-million bet with me...

In the car.

The driver ignored all gossip, dutifully focusing on driving.

Ariel Morris gently turned her head, looking at Arlo Seys, who still held her hand, his expression indifferent as he entered a cool and distant state.

She pursed her lips, trying to adjust the panic and fear she felt earlier, but her voice still carried some fearful tension, "Arlo Seys, today... thank you."

Arlo Seys remained silent.

Ariel Morris paused for a moment, "Arlo Seys... my hand hurts..."

After saying this, her gaze stayed on the hand held by him, her brows slightly furrowed.

Ariel Morris could feel that as soon as she spoke, Arlo Seys’ fingers momentarily stiffened, then suddenly released her hand, swiftly.

Ariel Morris withdrew her hand, feeling the pain ease slightly. When Arlo Seys was holding her hand earlier, the strength of his grip made her truly doubt if he was going to crush her bones.

Arlo Seys turned his head to look out the window, yet the hand by his side remained tightly clenched into a fist, his fingertips digging forcefully into his palm.

Recalling the scenes from moments ago, all that was left was the lingering fear of what could have happened.

If he had been just a bit late...

Thinking of this, he felt a chilling coldness throughout his body, his heart throbbing with unease.

That’s why, unconsciously, he held tightly to her hand, afraid this was merely a hallucination, an illusion of recovery after loss.

Neither spoke throughout the ride.

By the time they arrived at Arlo Seys’ private villa in Royal View City, it was already three in the morning.

Arlo Seys got out of the car and walked straight to the living room.

Ariel Morris hesitated for a moment, pressing her lips together before she quickly ran after him.

Arlo Seys’ pace was very fast; Ariel Morris chased barefoot behind him, "Arlo Seys, wait for me."

Her voice resonated in his ears, reminding Arlo Seys that he had brought Ariel Morris home...

Arlo Seys stopped, coldly turning to look at the person who had caught up to him, "I’ll have the driver take you back."

Ariel Morris instantly lifted her gaze to look at him, only seeing his cold and emotionless expression. She extended her hand, gently tugging at Arlo Seys’ arm, her voice small and somewhat pitiful, "Arlo Seys, could you let me stay for the night?"

This gesture is typically used by girls to act coy with their boyfriends, and Ariel Morris’ posture and tone fit perfectly at this moment, causing Arlo Seys’ heart to flutter violently.

He recalled the way she used to act coy in her youth; seeing her like this now, Arlo Seys even felt a sense of illusion. As if they had never broken up, never said goodbye eight years ago, as if they’d always been together.

She was still her, the girl who loved to act coy around him. He was still him, the naive boy who only wanted to pamper her and protect her forever.
