Alaricka waited for Kieranโs request.
Kieran suddenly said, โWere you that scared just now?โ
โYeah.โ
Alaricka answered bluntly and indifferently; she really didnโt want to get too involved with Kieran in this matter. But gradually, she realized this car wasnโt heading toward her home at all.
She frowned, โWhere are you taking me?โ
Kieran closed his eyes to rest and said quietly, โIโll take you to the hospital for a checkup.โ
Alaricka frowned. โNo, Iโm fine.โ
Kieran didnโt reply to her, and the assistant didnโt show any sign of turning back either.
Alaricka clenched her fingers and shut her eyes to endure it. Halfway there, Kieranโs phone suddenly rang. Alaricka turned her head to look. On the screen, it said in big letters: โRose.โ
Kieran picked up the phone. His voice was still as deep as always, but Alaricka could tell it was a bit softer. โDid you need something from me?โ
Roschelle sobbed, โKier, I accidentally fell. Can you come take me to the hospital?โ
Kieranโs eyebrows twitched a little, and a flash of worry quickly passed through his dark eyes. โWait for me. Iโll come pick you up.โ
Alaricka turned her head knowingly and quietly waited for the assistant to stop the car. Sure enough, after Kieran put down his phone, the assistant just pulled the car over to the side of the road.
Ding dongโ
There was a message on Alarickaโs phone, and she picked it up to check. โYour account received 10,000.โ
Kieran said, โThe hospital wasnโt far from here, just take a cab yourself.โ
Sure enough, Roschelle was Kieranโs first choice. Before Kieran finished talking, she looked up and got out of the car without any hesitation.
Looking at the Rolls-Royce, which obviously sped up a lot, the corners of her mouth curled into a sarcastic smile. She turned around, got a cab, didnโt go to the hospital, and went straight back to her rented place.
In the rental room, Tamika was watching a soap opera on TV with a worried look.
Tamika saw her, and her eyes lit up. โDid Mr. Argent go to find you?โ
Alaricka bent down to change her shoes, her tone cool: โRight now heโs probably with Roschelle, all lovey-dovey.โ
Tamikaโs smile froze, and she said awkwardly, โDid you beg him? Beg him to let us go back? Weโve been living here all this time; itโs not right.โ
After changing her shoes, Alaricka straightened up and looked at Tamika with clear eyes. Alarickaโs voice was cool and clear: โYou just had to hit a brick wall before youโd wake up, huh?โ
Tamika looked at her face and just couldnโt help feeling a little sad. At first, she didnโt have the idea of letting Alaricka marry into the Argent family; she just wanted to live a peaceful life. But Alarickaโs father died to save Wallace, and eight-year-old Alaricka was taken into the Argentโs villa and raised with the Argent familyโs kids.
When Alaricka was a kid, she looked super cute. As she grew up, Tamika noticed that Alaricka had even brighter eyes and whiter teeth. Plus, since she was raised by Wallace, her vibe was just as classy as a real rich girl. Even with Clarissa and Roschelle standing next to Alaricka, they couldnโt outshine Alaricka. Instead, they actually made Alaricka look even more stunning and charming. Even being the wife of a rich family, she was more than enough.
The real reason I wanted Alaricka to marry into the Argent family was that one time Alaricka suddenly had a high fever and couldnโt even stand. It was Kieran who picked her up and carried her to get a doctor. At that time, Alaricka and Kieran were close. The vibe between them was warm and nice, and they joked and laughed together. She also saw that there was love brewing in Alarickaโs eyes when she looked at Kieran.
It was just that after Roschelle came back, everything was different. The relationship between the two got tense, even hostile. Thinking of this, Tamika just couldnโt help but beat her chest and stamp her feet. She thought Kieran liked Alaricka too, but it turned out she was wrong. Kieran didnโt have those kinds of feelings for Alaricka at all; he really just saw Alaricka as a little sister.
Alaricka looked at the dining table and the kitchen. It was obvious Tamika hadnโt made dinner today. This was within her expectations. She put the food she bought on the table and said quietly, โItโs late, eat.โ
Tamika sat across with a long face, and Alaricka quietly watched her. In her last life, Tamika was the mother of a vicious supporting character, and things didnโt end well for herโin fact, it was pretty tragic.
