Chapter 1011 A Strange Feeling

Donovan frowned and turned to the other side before continuing to snore away.

While he slept like a log, Queenie stayed wide awake and stared at the ceiling the entire night.

Her mind was in a complete mess as faint images of Arielle’s face kept popping into her head.

Before heading back to the Maple Mansion, Vinson handed the bloodied dagger over to the deputy captain of the Specialized Forces.

“Get an analysis on the blood and check the global database for any information it has on this person.”

“Yes, Sir!”

Having taken care of official business, Vinson began driving Arielle back to the mansion. “Who does the blood on that dagger belong to?” Arielle asked from the passenger seat.

“The guy backstage from earlier.” Vinson’s expression turned gloomy at the mention of Aaron.

Had it not been for Arielle’s sudden “injury” at the time, he probably would’ve killed Aaron on the spot.

Noticing the anger in Vinson’s eyes, Arielle reached out to hold Vinson’s hand on the steering wheel and said, “Vinson, I don’t like you getting yourself into trouble because of me. You would suffer serious legal repercussions if you killed that guy in front of all those people.”

Vinson pursed his lips as the look of anger in his eyes faded slightly.

He simply interlocked fingers with Arielle and continued driving in silence. Although he didn’t say anything, his actions spoke louder than words.

Arielle made sure he had calmed down before speaking up again. “Trisha told me about that guy. He’s a new transfer student in our course. His name is Aaron, and he used to study at Maxwell University before transferring over. The reasons behind his transfer remain unknown, and…”

“And what?”

“Trisha said he has been coming over to the university every day. However, he only came to see me instead of attending the classes. I’ve been so busy that I skipped classes a lot a while back, so I only found out about this today.”

The look in Vinson’s eyes intensified as he said, “Got it. His men are pretty well-trained and were equipped with smoke grenades manufactured in Manchernius, so he’s definitely no ordinary guy. Inform me immediately if you see him again. Do not engage him by yourself. Do you understand?”

“All right, sure,” Arielle said with a nod. She then recalled the cruise incident and told him what had happened on the cruise ship.

Vinson was a little shocked when he heard that.

“So… he actually saved your life by accident?”

Arielle nodded. “I’m not sure if it’s because I’ve been a little tired lately, but I get this strange feeling whenever I see him.”

Vinson frowned at her upon hearing that, prompting her to quickly explain herself. She said, “I don’t mean that kind of feeling! It felt as though I saw a family member or something, but I must be imagining things. I don’t have any family members left in this world.”

Vinson kept one hand on the steering wheel and squeezed Arielle’s hand with the other as he said, “Yes, you do. You have me and my mom.”

Arielle flashed him a faint smile in response. “Yeah, I do. I also have my adoptive parents and Pat.”

They soon arrived at the Maple Mansion, and Vinson went straight for the wine cabinet in the underground basement.

A few minutes later, he swirled the wine glass in his hand as he asked, “Want to have a drink with me?”

Arielle took the glass from him hesitantly and said, “I… I don’t think I can hold my liquor really well…”

“You don’t think?”

Arielle let out an awkward chuckle as she explained, “My adoptive parents let me have some champagne while celebrating my coming of age party. I couldn’t remember anything that happened afterward, but they told me I made a fool out of myself that time. Because of that, they’ve kept me off the booze ever since.”
