Chapter 1411 How Heartless

Looking Kelly in the eye, Sonia solemnly maintained, “Since we’re rivals, we’ll compete fairly. Keeping my distance from Ms. Moore is impossible because she’s teaching all the courses I’m taking.”

“Didn’t you notice the look in Prince Aaron’s eyes at the sight of Ms. Moore? You have no hope in a fair competition,” Kelly snapped.

“So be it. Don’t tell me I must marry him?” Sonia replied after a momentary silence.

“Yes, you must marry him. Don’t forget what I told you,” Kelly enunciated tersely.

Hearing that, Sonia lowered her eyes and went silent.

When Kelly saw that, distress flooded her.

Sonia was her only daughter, so she had been pampering her ever since young. She wanted her daughter to marry someone she loved and loved her in return, but Prince Aaron was her best choice in the current circumstances.

“Sonia, you’re the princess in our family. All I do is for your good.” Taking Sonia’s hand, Kelly earnestly explained, “Considering the situation right now, the queen mother and the queen are both eyeing Prince Aaron’s marriage at present. The queen has her sights set on you, so I believe that Her Majesty will treat you well after you marry into the royal family.”

Both her sons were currently working for the queen’s nephew. Therefore, if Sonia married Prince Aaron, it would be equivalent to their entire family standing on the queen’s side.

“Mother, is this also Father’s wish?” Sonia queried after a moment of silence.

Kelly stilled for a while before she answered, “Of course.”

“Got it. Please excuse me.” After saying that, Sonia retracted her hand from her mother’s grasp. Getting to her feet, she strode out, leaving Kelly to gaze at her back with eyes that darkened a shade further.

After leaving the gates of Sonia’s house, Aaron enthusiastically invited Arielle out for a movie, but she ruthlessly turned him down.

When it came to watching a movie, she would only do so with Vinson.

Aaron was a touch disappointed at her rejection.

Ah, what a pity! This is a golden opportunity without anyone here to intrude on us. Since she’s unwilling to watch a movie with me, I’ll ask her out for a meal. She won’t say no to that, right? Isn’t this the common practice in pursuing a girl?

Truth be told, he was actually only using that method for the very first time.

Conversely, Arielle’s brows creased deeply. Do I look as though I’ve got nothing better to do? I’ve still got tons of work to do, okay? I don’t have the time to dine with him!

“No, thanks,” she declined coldly.

Aaron gazed at her with ebony eyes tinged with a hint of grievance. She was pretty amicable to me a few days ago. Why did she suddenly turn so callous?

Since she wasn’t willing to dine with him, he didn’t want to force her to do so either. Thus, he had no choice but to drive her back.

“You’re not going to object to me going in for a cup of tea, are you?” he asked cautiously.

A frown marred Arielle’s countenance. All of a sudden, she couldn’t quite bring herself to give him the boot, but then, she didn’t want to become the target of unsavory gossip either. In the end, she replied, “Another time.” After saying that, she swung open the door and walked in.

If she allowed him entry, and Vinson learned about that, he would unquestionably be angry and jealous.

Although both Aaron and Pat were of the same significance to her—a brother—she could understand Vinson’s jealousy. After all, if the man were to allow a girl into his house and treat her well, she would definitely be upset and jealous as well.

Therefore, she decided to keep a distance from Aaron henceforth instead of doing as she did the previous two times since their relationship could be easily misconstrued.

“How heartless of her!” Aaron then left with regret written all over his face.

A short while after Arielle went into the house, Morrison came knocking on her door. She eyed him with a frown.

Morrison calmly handed the gift bag in his hand to her. “This is for you.”

With her brows knitted together, Arielle looked at him in puzzlement.
