Chapter 564
Ariah had no choice but to answer the phone, "Hello..."
"Ariah, it''s me." Immediately, the person on the other side of the phone said her name.
"I know."
"Why didn''t you pick up my call earlier?"
"Ahem, I just got up. Well, what''s up?"
"It''s nothing big. Captain Hudson asked me to call you."
Jimmy Hudson?
Suspicious, Ariah asked. Why did Jimmy ask his colleague to call her?
"Why did he ask you to call me?"
Feeling nervous, David said, "I''m not sure. Captain Hudson only told me to inform you that he wants
to see you. It seems like he has something important to tell you!"
Ariah was stunned. Was Jimmy going to talk to her about Kobi?
"Ariah, I''m serious. Ben and I are waiting for you here." David said hastily. "Captain Hudson said he
will punish us if you don''te."
After saying that, David pretended to cry. "Ariah, please heave mercy on us."
Upon hearing him cry, Ariah was startled. Pinching her eyebrows, she said "Okay, stop crying. I''ll
go."
If Jimmy really wanted to talk to her about Kobi, this was a good opportunity as she wanted to make
things clear to avoid any misunderstanding in the future.
"Can I text you the address?"
"Sure."
"Aright!"
Ariah was speechless.
Can this tall, brawny guy stop acting cute? She could not handle his cuteness.
After Ariah hung up the phone, her text message notification rang, and she received David''s
message. Looking at the address she received, Ariah frowned doubtfully.
Why did she receive a hotel''s name?
Although Ariah thought it was weird, she did not think too much about it. Since Jimmy was capable
of doing anything, he must have had some weird intentions of asking her to go to a hotel.
However, she trusted Jimmy, so even if she were to go to the hotel, she got nothing to worry about.
After hanging up, David noticed his hand was sweating profusely. "Shit! I literally freaked out. I was
so afraid that Ariah will find out that I''m lying. I almost peed my pants!"
"You''re such a good-for-nothing!" Ben drew the curtains in the hotel room and started decorating the
bed by creating a heart shape using rose petals. "Totally sullied the reputation of our police force."
"If you''re not afraid, why didn''t you make the call earlier?" David kicked him. "Hey, over here, hurry
up and spray some perfume on it. Where are the rest of the petals? We have a bulk of them. Use all
of them!!"
After they were done decorating the room, Ben and David looked at each other and smiled nastily.
"Stuff like that are whatdies find impressive. Even a man like me feels touched seeing such a
romantic scene. I believe Ariah will feel the same too! Quick, call Captain Hudson!"
As Ben scrolled through his phone, he ordered David. "Remember to prepare the medicine for
Ariah. You have that ready, right? This is the most crucial part!"
"Don''t worry. I''ll let her drink it as soon as shees!"
"Hurry up and call Captain Hudson."
"Stop urging me. I''m calling him right now."
Ben called Jimmy, but no one answered.
"What''s wrong?"
"Captain Hudson didn''t pick up his phone."
"Try calling him again..."
Before Ben could finish his words, David''s phone rang. David fished his mobile phone out of his
pocket and said, "Ariah is here."
Text property ? N?vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
The two of them looked at each other. They had no choice but to go out and pick up Ariah first.
The two of them brought Ariah into the room. After pushing open the door, Ariah saw the rose petals
on the bed. She was stunned for a moment before she asked, "This...What''s going on?"
David led her in and said with a smile, "Obviously, Captain Hudson was the one who prepared
these."
When did Jimmy learn to be so romantic?
Ariah had a suspicious look on her face.
She did not know whether tough or cry. "Where''s Jimmy?"
"Uh..." Quickly, David gave Ben a look, hinting him to go out and call Captain Hudson. Ben made an
okay gesture and sneaked out with his mobile
phone.
David scuttled off to pour Ariah a ss of water. "Ariah, have some water first. Captain Hudson
received a call just now and went out. I think Director Sherlock has something to tell him."
Due to the unique nature of Jimmy''s job, he had to be on call round the clock because crime could
happen anytime and anywhere,
Ariah was a little worried. "Did something bad happen again?"
"It''s going to be fine, Ariah. Don''t worry." David looked at her eagerly. "Here, Ariah, drink some
water."
"Drink some even if you''re not thirsty. Women need to drink more water for better skin. Look at
those, your lips are chapped."
"That''s because I caught a cold yesterday." Ariah sighed. Seeing David holding the cup of water,
she felt bad for not taking it. She took the cup and took a few sips of water before putting it aside,
"Are you happy now?"
Scratched his head, David said, "Take a seat in the meantime. Ben went to look for Captain Hudson
and he should be back soon. I''ll go check on him."
Ariah hummed and wanted to look for a ce to sit down. However, there were flower petals
everywhere, so she could not find a ce to sit.
After David went out, he found Ben in the corridor. Then, he asked him in a low voice, "Where''s our
captain? Did you manage to contact him?"
Ben, who was holding onto his phone, looked anxious. "Captain Hudson is not answering his
phone. There''s nothing I can do."
"I thought he said he''ll be free tonight. Why is he not answering the phone now?"
"How would I know? I think he mentioned something about going back to his hometown... Why are
you looking at me? Keep calling him!"
David was speechless.
Ben kept calling him, thinking that something bad might have really happened to Jimmy if he did not
pick up again. However, the call went through this time. Ben said anxiously, "Captain, where are
you?"
"Hello, I am Jimmy''s brother."
An unfamiliar voice came from the other end of the phone.
Ben was stunned.
"Jimmy is talking to my father in the study room. He left his mobile phone in his coat and it kept
ringing. I was afraid that there might be something urgent, so I answered the phone," Kobi
exined briefly.
"Oh." Ben quickly said, "Can you please pass the phone to Captain Hudson?"
"No problem." Kobi smiled. "Can I ask why are you guys looking for Jimmy so urgently?"
"It''s nothing urgent. It''s just that Ariah is feeling a little...ahem, a little ufortable, so I think it''ll be
better if Captain Hudson cane as soon as possible."
Ariah was not feeling well?
Frowning, Kobi asked. "Are you guys at Ariah''s house?"
"Ah, you know Ariah as well?"
"I used to be her schoolmate. We were quite close."
"Oh." Upon hearing what Kobi said, Ben decided to just spill everything. "Well, we prepared a
surprise for Captain Hudson, and Ariah is waiting for him in the hotel now. We''ve been calling him
for a while but he didn''t answer his phone, so we were worried."
Kobi smiled and asked, "Which hotel is it? I''ll pass Jimmy the message."
Ben told him the name of the hotel and said, "In that case, we''ll leave the key to the receptionist.
You can ask him to take the keys at the front desk when hees."
"No problem."
"Thank you, sir. Please inform Captain Hudson as soon as possible."
Kobi agreed.
After hanging up the phone, Ben breathed a sigh of relief. David quickly asked, "So how was it?"
"It''s all settled." Ben whistled and said, "Captain Hudson will be here soon. Let''s leave first and let
Ariah wait for Captain Hudson."
"Let''s go. We don''t want to ruin their good time."
"Haha."
In the room. Ariah felt something wrong with her body, but she could not tell exactly what was
happening to her...
