After the policemen left with the lawyer, only Blake, Vinson, and Arielle were left standing there.
Blake immediately started apologizing.
“I'm sorry for causing you trouble, sir. Feel free to hit or scold me. I definitely deserve it.”
“Why would I?” Vinson asked. “You did the right thing.”
Blake was taken aback, doubting what he had just heard.
At first, he had his head lowered, but after hearing Vinson's words, he looked up at the latter and asked, “You're not kidding, right, sir?”
Vinson didn't reply, but his serious expression answered Blake's question.
Blake let out a sigh of relief and finally understood how much his boss loved Arielle.
If anyone else had dragged him into such a situation, Blake would have been scalped along with the instigator. However, Vinson was being exceptionally nice to Blake. What else could it be if not because of his love for Arielle?
When Alexandra had told Blake about this, he was still mildly doubtful, but all his doubts had now been thrown out of the window.
His boss was about to have a girlfriend!
As Blake eyed Arielle, he immediately caught on that he should not continue third-wheeling them. Hence, he quickly made up an excuse, saying that his bike was broken before he scurried off to 'get it fixed.'
While Arielle was wondering when the bike broke down, she heard Vinson say, “I'm going to keep Blake with you so that he can protect you. Next time you bump into people like that, just get him to beat all of them up. There's no need to worry about the consequences as long as you're satisfied.”
Arielle felt a warm sensation rush to her heart, and she asked, “Aren't you worried that your future girlfriend's going to get jealous if you're always so nice to me?”
He raised an eyebrow. “How could someone get jealous of herself?”
