Chapter 532
That night, Jimmy and Ariah were sleeping in the same room, so he carried her upstairs to rest and
went back downstairs to chat with Kobi.
The two brothers hadn''t seen each other for several years, so Ariah thought tonight they might be
able to chat with each other for the whole night.
Since her legs were inconvenient due to the injury, shey on the bed and went on her phone. At
that moment, someone suddenly knocked on the door. "Hello?"
Immediately, Ariah sat up straight and said, "Pleasee in. The door is not closed."
Then, Emily opened the door and walked in. A beautiful woman like her became remarkably
beautiful when she smiled. "I''m not disturbing you, am I?"
"No, you''re not." As Ariah raised the phone in her hand, she said, "I was too bored, so I was on my
phone."
"Then would you mind me joining you?"
"Of course not. Come on in."
After Emily came in, she asked, "You''re brother
Kobi''s wife, aren''t you? Should I address you as my sis-inw then?"
With a smile, Ariah answered, "There''s no need to be so formal. Just call me by my name. I''m
Ariah."
"Okay, I''ll call you Ariah then." As soon as Emily sat on the side of the bed, her gazended on
Ariah''s face as she directly sized her up.
"Uh... Is there anything on my face?"
Meanwhile, Ariah, who was ufortable being stared at, consciously touched her face.
Immediately, Alice shook her head and answered, "No, it''s just that I think... you''re beautiful, so I
couldn''t help but stare at you."
Praised by such a beautiful woman like Emily, Ariah was ttered. "You''re gorgeous too, Emily."
"I know!" Sweetly, Emily smiled. "Everyone who had met me said so."
Suddenly, Ariah couldn''t help butugh because she realized that even though Emily had a
straightforward personality, she was quite cute. Since it was Emily''s first time here, Ariah took the
initiative to start the conversation. "Your English is pretty good. Do youe here often?"
"Nope, I''ve been living abroad since I was born."
Then, Ariah expressed her surprise.
"My mother is from Beachmarsh, so she taught me English since I was a child. My mother said that
I have the blood of Estar in me, so I should know how to speak English."
In agreement, Ariah nodded her head. It would be of great help for her to have the ability to speak
thenguage of a nation in this era.
"Ariah, actually, I came here to ask you a question." After Alice hesitated for a moment, she finally
asked.
"Yes. What is it?"
"After all, it''s my first time here, and I''ve never stayed here for a long time. Before I came, my
mother told me that a lot of things here are different from my country. I don''t know if it was my
illusion, but when we were chatting downstairs, I felt that Kobi''s parents didn''t like me.
The seemingly carefree girl was actually sensitive.
After Ariah heard Emily''s concern, she knew that Emily must have taken it the wrong way, so she
thought for a moment and said, "Jimmy''s parents are quite traditional, and they seldom express
themselves even when they like someone. Although they don''t seem to be enthusiastic towards
you, that doesn''t mean they don''t like you, so don''t think too much about it."
A momentter, Ariah gave it a thought and added, "In fact, I think they like you very much. Think
about it. They''ve had a long talk with you earlier. Usually, by this time, they would be resting
already."
However, Ariah''sst sentence was just nonsense, and she casually said it because she wanted to
reassure Emily.
Sure enough, Alice''s eyes lit up when she heard Ariah''s words. "Really?"
"Yes, you are so beautiful and lovely. Of course, everyone will like you."
"Then do you like me?"
"Uh, yes. I do." At that moment, Ariah didn''t expect Emily to be so straightforward.
With a smile, Alice suddenly said, "Ariah, did you and Kobi know each other a long time ago?"
Immediately, Ariah''s heart skipped a beat, and she blurted out, "What do you mean?"
"When we were downstairs, he seemed to be looking at you all the time, and he didn''t even listen to
what I was saying." With a deep gaze, Alice continued, "He was never like this. Besides, the way he
looked at you made me feel that the both of you should have known each other before."
Then, Ariah calmed herself down and smiled,

"You''re thinking too much. We didn''t... know each other before. I''m the wife of his younger brother,
so maybe he was a little curious about me, which made you misunderstand."
After Emily heard Ariah''s exnation, she was thrilled. Then, she proceeded to talk to Ariah about
other things and finally returned to her room reluctantly.
For a long time, Ariah sat on the bed in a daze while she waited for Jimmy for another half an hour.
When she that he still hadn''te up, she slowly got up to head to the bathroom. After a simple
wash-up, Ariahy down and tried to fall asleep.
It''s been a long time since she was married to Jimmy. In the past, she used to sleep alone, but after
she was together with Jimmy, she got used to hugging Jimmy and sleeping together.
Later, because of his rtionship with Anna, she moved out and rented a house for herself. In the
beginning, she even had insomnia every day.
In fact, she tossed and turned, and she was unable to fall asleep because there no longer was
someone that slept next to her.
At that moment, Ariah couldn''t fall asleep either because the bed was empty and the nkets were
still a little cold. Furthermore, her ankle was injured, which made her harder to fall asleep.
After a long period of tossing and turning, finally, she felt sleepy.
When she was half asleep, she suddenly felt her body tighten. A warm chest pressed against her
back, and Jimmy''s familiar smell entered her nose.
Immediately, Ariah was awakened. Just as she was about to move, she felt heat blown against her
ears. "Don''t move, it''s me."
It was Jimmy''s voice.
Vaguely, Ariah opened her eyes. It was pitch-dark in the bedroom, so she muttered, "What time is
it?"
"It''s almost one o''clock."
With a frown, Ariah asked, "Were you drinking?"
"Yes, I drank a little."
While Jimmy was having a chat with Kobi, they had some beer together. The two brothers hadn''t
seen each other for many years and had a lot to say to each other. If it weren''t for the fact that
Jimmy was concerned about Ariah''s injury on her ankle, he might have been able to chat with Kobi
for the whole night.
"A little? You reek of alcohol..."
Immediately, Ariah muttered, "Stay away from me, you alcoholic!"
In a low voice, Jimmyughed and said, "Are you jealous about my brother? I wasn''t even hanging
around other women. I was only having a drink with my brother."
In the dark, Ariah rolled her eyes because it was not that she was jealous, but she really disliked the
way he reeked of alcohol. Who was jealous? What was good about being jealous of another man?
Casually, Ariah pretended to ask, "What did you guys talk about?"
However, Jimmy didn''t answer her, but he used his huge hand to flip her over to face him, and his
hand slowly caressed her smooth waist. Out offort, he sighed. "Why is your skin as tender as a
baby?"
Immediately, Ariah stopped his hand from moving around and said, "I''m asking you something, don''t
you..."
"It was just a casual chat." At that moment, Jimmy seemed as if he didn''t want to talk to her about
Kobi. "Why are you thinking about another man when your man is right in front of you?"
"Can you stop acting being a pervert?"
At once, Ariah pped him. In the dark, it was exceptionally loud, and Jimmy was stunned for a
moment. After a long while, he slowly felt his face became numb.
Even Ariah was also stunned, but after she came to her senses, she was embarrassed. "I... I didn''t
do it on purpose. I just wanted to push you away. I didn''t expect your face to be here... D- Does it
hurt?"
Indeed, she swore that she just wanted to push him away, and she had no intention of hitting him.
It was because she couldn''t see him in the dark, so when she wanted to give him a simple push,
unexpectedly, she hit him in the face!
