An Argument
Vinson came out from the kitchen and saw how delighted Arielle was. “What are you reading that
makes you so happy?” he asked while hugging her from behind.
She waved her phone at him. “This!”
“She won’t appear in front of you anymore.” He took a quick glance at her phone screen and
cringed. That d*mned woman! How brazen of her to lay her fingers on Arielle!
Arielle expected that ending for Annabelle. She had been totally excommunicated from the
entertainment industry. Henceforth, she would never have a chance to show up before Arielle again.
“Vinson, I’ll go over to the Mill residence in a while. You can resume work at the office,” she spoke after
putting down the phone.
Initially, Vinson planned to keep her company for two more days until she was fully recovered. Contrary
to his plan, she already wanted to get out of the hospital to see the Mills.
Vinson got up and sat beside her. He looked her in the eyes and said sternly, “Don’t go to the Mill
residence.”
Arielle was slightly taken aback. “Why? Didn’t we already talk about this? I must take part in the most
important occasion of the Mill family.”
“Yes, we did talk about this. But, that’s all in the past, and things are different now. I’m not letting you
go.”
Arielle became upset, but she tried to hold it all in because she wanted to know why Vinson changed
his mind. He was very supportive of me when I last told him that I wanted to join the Mills. Why did he
suddenly stop me?
“Vinson, there’s nothing you can do about it even if you disagree. I must go to the Mill residence.”
Previously, Arielle wanted the medical manuscripts from the Mill family to gain an extra advantage for
herself. Later on, it became a priority to her when she thought about the possible consequences if the
manuscripts were to land on those with an ulterior motive.
Vinson pulled a long face and kept silent. On the other hand, Arielle was fuming inside. Both of them
gave each other the cold shoulder for a while before he finally compromised.
“I’m just worried about you. See, you’re injured. How can I let you go alone?” Seeing how worked up
Arielle was, Vinson had no idea what to do with her.
“This is just a minor wound. Don’t worry.” She knew that he cared about her a lot. Thus, her
unhappiness disappeared. She held his hands coquettishly and said, “I know you’re concerned about
my safety but I’m Arielle Moore. You can rest assured that I’ll be just fine.”
Vinson knew that there was nothing he could do to change her mind. Had he insisted otherwise, the
conflict between them would just continue. It’s not worth it to risk hurting our relationship because of
this one incident. Furthermore, that’s the precious part about Arielle that I love.
“Okay, I’ll let you go if you must. However, you ought to promise me one thing.” Vinson held her hands
and said solemnly, “You must take good care of yourself when you are at the Mill residence.
Regardless of what happens, safety first. I don’t want you to get hurt.”
“Yup, no worries. I’ll definitely stay safe and protect myself. No injuries or whatsoever, I promise.” Then,
she cheekily pecked him on the cheek. Vinson seized the opportunity and moved in for a big smooch
around her neck. With that, the couple made up with each other.
“Bring Sasha along. It’s safer than you going to the Mills on your own.”
Arielle knew that Vinson would continue to bug her if she said no. Hence, she agreed right
away. Sasha is a skilled fighter. I’ll have one thing less to worry about when she’s with me.
