Hate To Love You My Billionaire Lover

Chapter 96: I Will Accompany You



There was a little news regarding Transcendent Jewels, the most common things, which made her a little relieved.

However, Travis was indeed in trouble because the government mentioned the name directly or indirectly many times recently. She could see his company had done crisis management measures from the lines in newspapers, but the measures he took were conservative and very slow, which resulted in not very ideal effect. Probably because of this, he was slandered by his subordinates in their private time.

Arianna placed the newspaper in order and said to herself, “What is in it for me? Why should I care about him? Although I don’t want something bad to happen to him, I will not show mercy when he is in trouble either.”

Arianna’s life was now like a soap opera. Charles saw her soulless for days, so he took her to a hot spring manor to spend the weekend. Charles had planned to ask her to bathe in the hot spring to cure a cold, but she had a lot of sweat in the process. When the cold wind blew her, her cold was aggravated, and Charles’s second day’s play plan was also disrupted.

When they went there, the owner of the manor personally received them. The boss seemed to be very familiar with Charles. He was much older than Charles, but he respectfully and affectionately called his name. He let out a strange smile when he saw Charles had booked two rooms. He looked at Arianna a few times, and he was curious in his eyes. Arianna could only pretend she didn’t see him.

The boss did arrange two rooms for them, and they were in a deluxe suite. The manor had a ring-shaped building structure. Her room was next to Charles’s. She could see the corner of another room standing in front of the window.

The two bedrooms in the suite were keyed. When she entered the room, she gave a key to Charles. Charles smiled and said, “If you are afraid at night, call me, and I will accompany you.”

But her cold worsened. At night, she even started to have a low fever. Charles could only sit by her bed, gently grabbing her hand. He helped measure her body temperature once in a while.

Later, the doctor in the manor’s infirmary gave her several medicines. Those medicines had a strong hypnotic effect. She quickly became sleepy and groggy. Charles covered her with a quilt and said softly, “Get a good sleep tonight, and you will be fine tomorrow.”

Arianna nodded in a confused way.

Her sleep quality has been very poor these days. Even the sleeping pills did not work, not to mention medicines for cold. In the middle of the night, she woke up from a nightmare again, her body full of sweat because of shock. But when she touched her forehead, her body temperature had returned to normal.

She finally remembered where she was. She didn’t find the light switch, so she got out of the bed in the darkness. The window was beside the bed. There was a line of light piercing through the curtain. She walked towards the light and opened the curtain. Then she saw there was light in Charles’s room. Outside the window, the moon had risen into the sky. It had already passed midnight.

Arianna stood by the window and watched the stars for a while, and suddenly she wanted to go to see Charles.

She put on her robe in the moonlight, gently pushed open the room, and quietly went out. She suddenly wanted to play a prank. She wanted to appear in front of him suddenly and scare him.

The lights in the living room of the deluxe suite were also on. Arianna sneaked in front of the door to his room. Just before she wanted to knock at his door, another person’s voice came out of his room.

The sound insulation in this suite was actually very good, and the walls and doors were thick enough, but it was too quiet in the middle of the night.

She had wanted to return to her room quietly, but the first sentence she overheard made her stop.

Another voice said, “Charles, are you overestimating that guy this time? I think what his men said is true. In the past year, this guy had lost his fighting spirit and was not interested in making money. Is it because his wife is sick?” The voice was from the boss of this manor.

“I think I once again underestimated him.” Charles’s voice was cold and faint.

“Why do you say this?”NôvelDrama.Org: text © owner.

“You just think, if he did it in the most normal way for him, he would have just fallen into our plan. But he is now stepping back, and my follow-up plan is completely in vain.”

“This is just a coincidence, Charles. He does not deny even the crime that has nothing to do with him. No one in the world would have retreated to this point.”

“That’s because, if he wants to deny, he has to use other facts to prove his innocence. And the ‘facts’ are even worse than letting himself confess.” Charles laughed.

“Oh, Charles, he can’t compare to your genius.”

“It’s hard to say. You know, he had been my classmate for two years, and we had played chess a lot of times together. I never beat him for once.”

“Chess is a child’s play. When you start hitting each other with real swords and guns, that’s what I call a real battle. Let’s not talk about how he is in such a bad state of mind now. This time his patron is down. That’s what is really hurting him.”

“He must have more than one patron, otherwise, he would not have created such a big company from ground zero. I can’t believe the rumors outside. This time I got the opportunity to see clearly who was on his back.”

“Charles, sometimes I don’t understand very well. Although the guy is not getting along with your family, he hasn’t done anything to you. And the guy is not a good target to piss off. I heard he buried all those who had offended him… Why are you always against him?”

“Uncle Louis, you talked too much.”

Arianna suddenly wanted to escape from eavesdropping on them. But before she left, she still heard the following part.

“The man’s wife and daughter have settled down. This is already over. I just didn’t expect the lady to be scared. Boss Lee really wants to apologize to you.”

“Boss Lee has raised a bunch of morons. I wanted them to protect her from being scared. I didn’t expect that they did this thing so ‘professionally’.”

“Boss Lee had planned to bring him down anyway. And this dead man had contacted the guy twice. Boss Lee thought that he could put this thing on the guy’s head to give him some hard time, and you would be glad hearing that.”

“It turned out he is also a moron.”
