Chapter 1404 Miss You
Arielle didn’t use the phone that Morrison gave her, for she had to be wary of the possibility that he had installed a spying device on it.
Instead, Arielle took out the phone that Xavier gave her and installed software to send a video call request to Vinson.
Since Arielle hadn’t seen Vinson for quite some time, she missed him dearly. While holding the phone, she imagined how surprised Vinson would be later.
Vinson was in Chanaea when he received Xavier’s text, stating that a cargo ship would arrive at Turlen three days later. As such, Xavier asked Vinson to be there in advance. Immediately, Vinson called Harvey to make necessary arrangements. Later, Vinson was excited when he saw Arielle’s video call request.
Vinson’s lips curled up when he answered the video call and saw that Arielle was giggling. He missed her very much, for they hadn’t seen each other for more than half a month. Besides, his heart seemed to have melted once he saw her sweet smile.
“Why are you giggling?” Vinson said smilingly as he unblinkingly stared at Arielle.
Meanwhile, Arielle came to her senses upon hearing Vinson’s voice. When she saw his face, her eyes turned bloodshot, and tears began to well up in her eyes.
“Vinson!” Arielle said chokingly.
In the past, Arielle never thought she would behave in such a way.
All the more so, she never thought she would giggle and feel like crying just because she missed someone dearly.
“I’m here. Don’t cry.” Meanwhile, Vinson felt like taking her into his arms right away when he heard her choking voice and bloodshot eyes. At that moment, his longing for her was written all over his eyes. “Don’t cry, for I’ll feel heartbroken.”
“I’m not crying!” Arielle wiped away her tears and continued stubbornly, “It was eye strain.”
“Sannie, I miss you.” Vinson’s gaze on Arielle, who pretended to be strong at that time, was gentle and loving. Deep down, he wished to hug and kiss her now.
Arielle coughed lightly and pretended to be calm, albeit blushing, “I know.”
Deep in Arielle’s heart, she missed Vinson very much. If Arielle and Vinson were on a phone call, she would reveal her feelings to him without reservation.
Now that they had a video call, she felt embarrassed to tell Vinson she missed him.
Knowing that Arielle was shy, Vinson couldn’t help but tease, “Do you miss me?”
“I gave you an answer last time.” Arielle’s gaze darted around.
“As you said, the answer was to your question last time. I’m asking about now.” Vinson deliberately dwelled on it with a grin.
“Yes, I miss you. I miss you a lot. Are you satisfied?” Arielle pursed her lips while gazing at the man who had just obtained the answer he coveted.
Humph! He always likes to tease me.
After chatting for a while, Arielle told Vinson that the communication devices had been restored. He was delighted and could put his mind at ease because he could contact her from now on.
Although Vinson knew that Arielle was safe all the while, he still couldn’t stop himself from worrying about her.
“Vinson, can you send my father’s photo to me? I’ll ask around to see if someone knows him.”
After working for over half a day as a substitute lecturer at the university, Arielle realized that many children in her class came from prominent families.
Hence, she planned to get to know them to get some information in the future.
Since Arielle brought up her biological father, Vinson recalled that Xavier had reported some findings. He said, “Xavier told me yesterday that only the king in Turlen is called Dylan. Based on Xavier’s investigation, the king has never left Turlen. Therefore, we suspect that your father had used the king’s name when he dated Andrea.”
