Chapter 128: It Left Her Wondering ’Why’
Arissa stared at the keys the guards just gave to her. Raising her face back to him, she asked, "When did he say you should return this?"
"Just this morning, Miss,"
’Miss?’ Arissa turned confused hearing her new title. Why did her title suddenly change?
"Okay, thanks," she said, waving the topic about her new title off. Her new title sounded so wired in her ears that she felt nauseous just listening to it.
Arissa took a step forward but halted when the guard behind her did not move an inch. He was supposed to follow her out of the house as usual, right?
"Diego? Did he also state I could now leave the house alone?" she asked turning around to the guard.
The guard nodded, "Yes, Miss, Mr. Wyatt ordered us to end our trail behind you,"
"Oh!" was all Arissa said in contemplation before turning back to the door. Tucking a strand of her hair behind her ear, she tried to act indifferent but with the new title, she felt drained.
Remembering something, she turned back to the guard. Just before she would say a word, a familiar overpowering scent, with an intimidating aura seized her attention.
Raising her face, the aura lead her eyes to the staircase. She watched him patiently as he walked down the staircase all dressed up for work.
Nicklaus felt her presence around the living room. Tiling his head, his hard gaze met with hers and he gulped to stay strong but that was useless because his gaze softened the moment she held his gaze.
