My Pretty Sweetheart novel Chapter 72

I hung up the phone and got up to walk towards him. Then, I opened the door and got into the car. I leaned against the car seat and heaved a sigh of relief. "Why are you here?" I asked, looking at him.

"Why are you here?" He asked me in return with an unhappy tone.

Rubbing the space between my eyebrows, I closed my eyes and replied wearily, "Sawyer is only auditing for Roberts Group, but not Shelley Group."

"Leave it to Alford Audit," Hendrix said and started the car.

I was bewildered, unable to understand what he was trying to say. I asked out of confusion, "Leave all of it to Alford Audit? Or just Shelley Group's?"

At the traffic light, he turned to me and raised an eyebrow. "Do you intend to break the contract?"

Oh. Sawyer and I had already signed the contract. Naturally, we just need to hand over Shelley Group's auditing to Alford Audit.

My shoulders and my back felt a little stiff and uncomfortable, so I leaned further back. Seeing that the route he was taking was wrong, I questioned puzzledly, "Where are we going?"

"To have a meal."

He had always been so distant and taciturn, so I didn't ask more. However, when he parked the car in front of the shopping mall, I was perplexed. "We're

having a meal at the shopping mall?"

Was he planning to go shopping with me and then have dinner together?

This could be quite... romantic!

Hendrix took a glimpse at me, then signaled for me to get out of the car and enter the mall with him. He was tall and exuded a cool aura, coupled with his perfect facial features, it was inevitable that he would attract attention.

As soon as we entered the mall, many women fixed their gazes on him. He caught a lot of women's attention, some were reserved and shy while some ogled openly.

Following behind him, I couldn't help but curl my lips. Sure enough, he was here to gain some public attention.

He stopped abruptly and I wasn't paying attention, so I bumped into his back. I frowned out of pain and looked up at him, "Why did you suddenly stop?"

"You should watch where you're going." Glancing at me, he pulled me into a branded store and said, "Pick something suitable. There are a few people we have to meet tonight."

Who were we meeting?
