He was so angry with me. He took a deep breath, got up, and went straight into the bathroom without saying anything.
His behavior made me a little confused, and I didn't know what to do for a while.
Sitting on the bed, I was a little absent-minded. Suddenly, I felt mentally drained. All along, I had been trying to escape...
I was lost, and running in circles. In the end, I didn't even know what I wanted.
Naomi called, her voice loud. "Arianna, did you fall into a trap? You disappeared after going to the toilet!"
Her voice was so loud that I felt my head buzzing. I pulled my phone away from my ear. After a while, I managed to reply, "I've already returned home. I had some matters coming up earlier, so I left early. I forgot to tell you."
Naomi seemed exasperated and confused. She asked, "Home? Who are you with? Aren't you living with Mr. Milton? You didn’t wait for him, so who did you go home with?"
I...
D*mn!
After a pause, I responded, "I met friends from Jarold City today. By the way, are you still in the private room?"
"Come on! Don't you know what time it is? How could we still be in the room?" Her voice was still very loud. "We're not that young, and we can't stay up late. By the way, I forgot to tell you. Mr. Milton drank too much tonight, so you should take care of yourself! Lock up properly."
Err...
"Did you make him drink?" Naomi was probably trying to seize the opportunity to seduce him!
She laughed naughtily and replied, "I didn't want to at first, but I thought about how rare it is for such a rich man to be around me. If I miss this chance, I'll be embarrassed forever! If I can be in a relationship with such an outstanding man, I could brag about it for the rest of my life!"
I was a little stunned. I really couldn't figure out her thoughts!
I could not help saying, "If you need my help, you can tell me anytime. I can create opportunities for you, if you come to hang out with me."
"Hahahaha!" A burst of laughter came from the other end of the phone. Naomi was ecstatic, as if she had just seen a vision of a hopeful future.
Somewhat excited, she said, "Why don't I come and look for you tomorrow?"
"Don't!" I said with embarrassment, "I think I have something to do tomorrow, so I don't have time to accompany you!"
She clicked her tongue sarcastically and said, "Do you need to take care of your friends from Jarold City?"
