Chapter 18
The next day, Arya was woken up by a call.
Still half asleep, she grabbed her phone from the bedside table and pressed the answer buttons. “Hello?”
A deep, sexy, and pleasant voice came from the phone. T’m alrearly downstairs at your place
Arya’s drowsiness instantly vanished.
She glanced at the time on her phone–it was only 7:30 in the morning.
She quickly got out of bed and pulled back the curtains. Sure enough, a fleet of luxury cars s
ars was parked downstairs.
A group of black suited bodyguards were moving stuff into the villa.
“Okay, wait for me at the door. I’ll be right out. Arya hung up the phone immediately and got cleaned up and changed clothes as quickly as possible
By the time she came downstairs, the aloof man had already appeared in her living room. Behind him were a bunch of black–suited bodyguards.
His innate cold aura seemed to drop the temperature of the entire living room to zero. And the living room was littered with all sorts of luxury, big name
brands.
“So Mr. Barnett is here… proposing! to me?‘ Arya wondered.
Just as she was lost in her astonishment, Travis, standing face to face with Finn, spoke up coldly. “Mr. Barnett, I just want to ask you one thing–do you truly like my sister?”
Next to him stood Maria, looking equally worried.
“Of course,” Finn said
d with his usual cold and indifferent expression, his words carrying an unquestionable aura.
The atmosphere in the villa seemed even heavier at that moment.
Even Arya, standing at the staircase, felt the air was thin and suffocating.
Worried that her brother might clash with Finn, she quickly ran downstairs, beaming with joy as she approached Finn and affectionately linked her arm with his. “Finn, I’m really sorry to have kept you waiting.”
Her voice was a bit coquettish, her eyes sparkling like little stars, giving off the vibe of someone meeting their long–awaited lover.
Finn silently observed her. In his deep eyes, there was an almost imperceptible hint of
Ta smile.
Right after that, his big, well–defined hand smoothly wrapped around Arya’s tiny waist. His deep, rich voice was low and a little bit sery. “I just arrived”
When Arya felt his scorching hand on her waist, her brows slightly furrowed.
She had reached out to Finn in the first place just to ease her older brother’s and mom’s wories.
And she thought she was being pretty modest with her actions.
‘But this damn man had to hug my waist?” she cursed inwardly.
Hugging her waist was bad enough, but his big, hand
d kept moving slowly against her skin. That tingling feeling was driving her crazy.
“Then let’s go. Arya forced herself to push aside all those messy thoughts and gave Finn a smile
She just wanted to leave quickly to avoid her mom and brother asking more questions and pissing off Finn.

But unexpectedly, Finn lifted her chin and bent down to kiss her lips.
Arya was shocked, cursing inwardly, ‘What the hell? How shameless!
When Travis saw the scene, his handsome lace suddenly darkened with anger.
He had always spoiled Arya. Back when their father wanted i
ted Arya to get engaged to Malcolm, he strongly opposed it he didn’t think Malcolm was good
enough for her.
In fact, he even thought no one was good enough for Arya.
But now, this Finn Barnett was hugging and kissing his sister right in front of him.
