Chapter 1148


    I braced myself with a deep breath and walked to him. We entered the bathroom together.


    As he stood there, I lowered my head slightly and reached out to unbuckle his belt Subconsicouly I


    bit my lip while unbuttoning his pants and lowering his zipper.


    Suddenly, he grabbed y hand, stopping me from doing more, suddenly held my hand, and his deep


    voice was slightly hoarse. "Okay, I''ll do it by myself!"


    I rxed and left him to it.


    His mobile phone on the bed rang. Looking down at the caller ID, I didn''t pick it up. It was Andrea,


    she was probably calling to check on Hendrix''s injury.


    However, the phone kept ringing, and Hendrix was still in the bathroom. Probably because he heard


    the phone ringing, he called out, "You answer it!"


    I pursed my lips and thought for a moment, and reluctantly answered the call. Before I could say


    anything, an anxious cry came from the other end, "Hendrix, are you okay? Sorry, I really didn''t


    mean it. I didn''t want to lose my temper, and I didn''t want you to get hurt. I would rather get hurt


    than let you


    get hurt. I promise this is thest time. I will listen to you in the future and never mess around


    again."


    So Hendrix was injured because of Andrea?


    I held the phone and didn''t speak for a long time. The person on the other side cried so hard that


    she couldn''t breathe. She choked and said, "Hendrix, are you still angry with me? I was wrong. In


    the future, I..."


    "Stay away from him, there won''t be a future," I said in a tone that wasn''t friendly, with a hint of


    anger.


    The person on the other side gasped when she heard my voice. Then, she calmed down and


    stopped crying. She said, "Arianna, why are you answering Hendrix''s phone? How could you be so


    uncouth? How could you just answer someone else''s call?"

    I sneered, "What? No more tears now that you know I am not Hendrix? Your acting still has not


    improved over the years. Sorry to disappoint you. It was Hendrix who asked me to answer the


    phone. He is in the bathroom right now, so it''s not very convenient for him to answer the phone."


    Whether it was out of anger or jealousy, she gave a cold snort and said, "Arianna, you don''t have to


    be so proud. I may not be able to marry Hendrix, but we''re are still important to each other. He could


    have avoided what happened today, but he still protected me subconsciously. He would rather be


    hurt in my stead. Yes, he may really love you and really want to protect you, but I have be


    something that can''t be erased from his heart. I''ll continue being a hindrance to your rtionship."


    Instead of feeling angry, her insistence made meugh. I said in a light tone, "Andrea, are you


    tired?"


    Stunned silence then she said, "As long as I can make you feel ufortable, I''ll never feel tired."


    "Oh!" I nodded. "I hope you can hold on to that for the rest of your life."


    Then I hung up the phone and put the mobile phone aside. I needed to take a bath and sleep.


    Warm arms suddenly encircled me from behind and I froze. Hendrix''s familiar scent teased my


    senses. I grumbled half-heartedly, "How can you walk so quietly?"
