My Pretty Sweetheart novel Chapter 1920

I didn't expect him to be so gallant. After a pause, I shook my head with a smile. "Don't mention it. Wynn is so lovely, no one would just stand by if they see him in trouble. Pardon my presumption, but try to prioritize the safety of your family, in spite of the fact that making money is important. If it's possible, you'd better arrange a few bodyguards for Wynn."

I had no intention of meddling in his business. I just felt close to Wynn, thus I did not want anything bad happening to him. In rich families, heirs would do anything to contend for the succession to the properties. Even Wynn had been abandoned by his stepmother-to-be; who knew what could happen in the future?

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but feel sorry for the little fellow. At the end of the day, being born with a silver spoon in his mouth may not be as big a blessing as many thought it to be.

Hendrix's face fell when he heard my words and he shot me a strange look.

I felt uncomfortable under his stare. Just as I was about to make an excuse to leave, my phone rang. It was Freya.

"How are you? Have you arrived home?" Freya's voice was full of penitence. "It's all my fault. I didn't handle the paparazzi in advance. It's rare for us to hang out together, but I've screwed it up."

"It doesn't matter. Let's meet up again next time. I've been shopping by myself for a while, but I'm going home now. I'll call you when I get back."

I had been busy chatting with Wynn after ordering our food, so I completely forgot about Freya.

After hanging up, and before the phone screen was turned off, Irvin's ID popped up.

Irvin's side was silent. "You've gone out?"

"Yes." I glanced at the time, and saw that it was already seven. He must be getting off work. "I came shopping with Freya and we lost track of time. I'm going home now."

"Send my your location and wait for me there."

"It's alright, I'll just take a taxi. I'm not a princess."

I was definitely no rival of Irvin's when it came to arguing, so I decided to hang up immediately to end the conversation.

Subsequently, I left the shopping mall with Hendrix and his son.
