My Pretty Sweetheart (Arianna) novel Chapter 29

After waiting for a long time, I somehow dozed off. It was only when I heard the voices of several people coming out that I forced myself to sit up.

The three people who came out of the conference room looked at me. Josiah raised his eyebrow at me and pursed his thin lips. He looked at Evan who was beside him and said something. Evan then shot a glance at me before leaving.

Meanwhile, Hendrix stared at me with a deep gaze. I had a feeling that he was going to get angry at me again.

Thinking about Richard's matter, I stood up quickly and said, "Mr. Roberts, I am willing to bear full responsibility for all the company's losses for the past two days!"

Hendrix frowned and didn't speak. Austin, however, smirked at me and said, "Miss Reid, I never knew that you are so capable! To be able to cause your husband to lose tens of millions of dollars in two days on a project worth hundreds of millions of dollars. You're pretty generous!"

Those words were obviously sarcasm.

I looked at Hendrix and noticed that his expression was livid, therefore I didn't say anything. I rolled my eyes at Austin and said, "Mr. Shelley, may I ask, does it have anything to do with you?"

"Pfft!" Someone laughed. It was Josiah. He had his hands in his pockets as he watched us from a

distance, as though none of these matters were related to him at all.

Austin gazed at him and sulked. Then, he looked at me and asked, "Arianna, who do you think you are to talk to me like that?"

I really didn't want to waste my time arguing with Austin since he looked down on me from the beginning. He always assumed that I was the one who ruined Hendrix and Andrea's relationship, hence he never said anything nice to me.
