Chapter: 282
When Ariana arrived home, she noticed the light on her neighbor’s balcony was on.
It seemed that her neighbor had already moved in.
“Wasn’t the room still under renovation this morning? How could it be already done by night?” Ariana muttered to herself as she
inserted her house key and opened the door.
Putting the groceries she bought on the way home on the countertop, she changed into a clean set of attire and coiled her hair
up as she prepared to cook.
She had learned a few simple recipes when she was studying abroad. Although the food she cooked was not exquisite, it tasted
not bad.
Moreover, she was pregnant. She needed more nutrients for the sake of her baby.
As such, she had recently been researching new recipes to give her baby a healthy meal.
While Ariana was preparing the vegetables, her phone rang in her pocket. She was startled by the ring and thought it was from
Theodore.
She hurriedly wiped her hands and answered. However, it turned out to be a prank call.
She hung up gloomily and put her kitchen preparations aside. Her mood had abruptly hit rock bottom.
It had been two days. Even the stupidest person would have realized she had moved out. Yet, Theodore had not even called at
all.
He didn’t even send messages. It seemed he really didn’t care less about her. ©
Ariana felt a chill sweep over her. Without her around to disturb them, the thought of Theodore and Helen having a cozy and
pleasant time at the Anderson family’s mansion came involuntarily into her mind.
Furious, she slammed her fists on the countertop and then shoved the vegetables into the sink. “Just die, you jerk!” she yelled
angrily.
The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. In a fit of rage, she blacklisted Theodore from all her social media
accounts and deleted his contact.
Just then, the doorbell rang.
Ariana readjusted her emotions before walking over to answer the door.
It was the landlady. She was holding a large piece of pizza in her hand and smiled brightly at the sight of Ariana. “I made pizza at
home. I brought some especially over for you.” ©
Ariana took it and thanked her without hesitation before asking in confusion, “Didn’t you rent that unit away?”
“Yes, but I’m still living downstairs. The entire floor downstairs is also mine,” the landlady replied.
The landlady was very friendly and continued chatting. “You know what? The young man I told you about this morning arrived in
the afternoon. I’m going to send him some pizza. Why don’t you join me? I’ll introduce you two.”
“I don’t think it’s a good idea. Besides, I’m in the middle of cooking dinner. Maybe next time,” Ariana replied a little awkwardly and
at a loss. She had no idea why the landlady wanted her to meet the man living across the hall.
