Chapter: 416
When she brought up Tyler’s name, his eyes snapped open, and he cast a harsh glance at Ariana. “Shut your mouth if you want that boy to come back safely.”
Theodore’s frightening expression caused Ariana to clamp her mouth shut. She shrank back in her seat and leaned against the door, refusing to be near him.
What a moody man! She had no idea what she did to irritate him again. He looked more horrible than he did when he woke up from his coma.
But now that she knew Tyler had been taken away by Theodore, she felt a wave of relief wash over her. At least that meant Tyler was in no real danger. But she still didn’t know what was bothering Theodore again.
The car began to make its way through the streets, driving away from the downtown area. Ariana wondered where Theodore was taking her. But she knew this man well enough to know that even if she did ask, she would most likely not get an answer.
So she sat still and didn’t bother trying. She looked out of the window and watched the scenery pass by. Soon, her eyes became drowsy with sleep.
Ariana was awoken when the car eventually came to a halt. She didn’t know how much time had passed. She looked at the person beside her. The door next to him had already been opened and he was being helped out of the car and into a wheelchair with Horace’s help.
Ariana, not wanting to be left behind, got out of the car in a hurry. When she looked at her surroundings, she was amazed by the large building in front of her.
It was a remote place, but in it was a magnificent manor that seemed ethereal in the environment. The high walls were white and pristine, the glass windows delicate, and cascading steps were made of flawless white marble.
She frowned as she stared at it. This building looked so familiar. Ariana rubbed her temples, pondering where she had seen this building before, trying to get a snippet of information from her hazy memory.
She suddenly remembered. This was the place from the photograph Sonia had sent her—the place Theodore and Helen were photographed.
She looked at Theodore in bewilderment and asked, “Why did you bring me here?” Theodore ignored her and addressed Horace indifferently instead, “Let’s go.”
Horace was an astute observer. He pushed the wheelchair in front of Ariana, beckoning her to take the handles. “Mrs. Anderson, the pebbled path here is uneven.
Please help Mr. Anderson with the wheelchair.”
Although Theodore looked indifferent, as though he didn’t want someone other than Horace getting near him, he didn’t stop Horace and acquiesced in his behavior.
“aren’t you coming with us?” Ariana looked at Horace, her eyebrows furrowing in confusion.
With a gracious smile, Horace answered respectfully, “I'll wait outside.”
Ariana, who was still in a daze, was left with no choice but to push Theodore toward the manor. As she did, she was met with the sight of rows of beautiful, colorful flowers neatly lining the one path leading to the white building not too far away.
Here the lawn sparkled with dew, green as emerald, and birds soared across the open sky. The sweet fragrance of flowers swept through the air. Ariana could barely believe her eyes. She felt like she was in heaven.
This manor was far more picturesque and astounding than the photo could depict.
