Hate To Love You My Billionaire Lover

There was nothing there, but her skin was a little pinker, and her lips had a red ring around them.

Arianna put the mirror back into the bag and looked at Travis sitting opposite her, “Were you expecting me to be drowning in tears?”

Travis slightly lowered his eyes, “I am reviewing my emotions. When my mother passed away, I wished there would be tornadoes everywhere, incoming comets, alien invasions and hoped the world would be destroyed.”

“Your heart is twisted. You want to drag others to suffer along with you.” Arianna made her evaluation of him aloud.

He ignored her and continued, “I later got a gun and rented a room on the second floor of the hotel that was opposite the Sanchez Group building. Your grandfather’s car drove in and out under my eyes every day, only forty meters away from me. He was in the range of my gen. I practiced and calculated every day and wondered when I would have the courage to take him down.”

His eyes were unconcerned, and his tone was calm as if telling her a casual story about his day. Arianna’s mouth hung open for a while.

“So, are you glad I let him live for ten more years?”

Arianna was speechless.

“Maybe you are sorry now. If I did shoot him, I probably either would have committed suicide or would have gone to prison, and you might have had the chance to continueMaterial © NôvelDrama.Org.

your career as a noble lady from a wealthy family. You would never have met me.”

She replied, “So you decided that destroying his business was a better punishment than ending his life?”

“I didn’t. It was just… When I was about to pull the trigger, I suddenly realized it was not worthwhile to commit a felony that would cost me the rest of my life just to take down that sad old man. He did not have many days left anyway, but I was still young.”

Arianna coughed and kept drinking water without saying a word.

Travis did not speak anymore either. The two kept silent until Arianna paid the bill.

The rain outside was finally letting up, but it was still enough to ruin people’s evenings out.

Arianna could not remember how to get back to the hotel. She drove down the countryside again, trying to retrace her steps. Travis stared out the window at the rainy landscape; he did not want to help at all.

Then, Arianna drove the car down a narrow road with a mountain on one side and a dark abyss on the other. The rain continued to patter on the glass window. The front windshield was swept clear by the wipers before being blurred by rainwater again.

Outside the car was a dangerous road section. Inside the car, it felt like the oxygen was getting thinner and thinner. Arianna was becoming upset.

“Are you afraid that I will drive this car down the cliff?”

“I don’t know… Why not?”

Although Travis answered calmly, he was probably worried that Arianna would choose to die with him. So he finally directed her to a road that was safer and was actually the right way home.

This so-called safe road was not exactly an easy drive, though. Only a few minutes after they turned onto it, a wheel of the car got stuck in a hidden pothole in the road. The muddy road hid the hole perfectly from Arianna’s vision.

“Is this what you wanted?” Arianna asked. Travis, annoyed.

“You were the one driving. This road is so wide, yet you just had to drive towards the massive puddle.”

Travis fetched several tools from the trunk and found some stones along the roadside. Eventually, he managed to get the car out of the hole after several attempts.

Since he was a poor driver, Arianna did not expect him actually to be handy with the car tools. She watched him for a while and found that the rain outside was picking up again. Reluctantly, she opened the door and went out to hold an umbrella over his body.

Later, the two of them returned to the hotel dripping in water once again. In jealousy, the daughter said, “Oh my god…. walking in the rain, you guys are so romantic.”

Only Arianna’s pants were wet, but Travis was soaked from head to toe.

The owner and her daughter were redecorating the front entrance when they came in. The woman spoke to Arianna as if she was speaking to a family member, “Just bring him upstairs to take a shower, so he doesn’t catch a cold.”

Upstairs, there was only one bathroom that received hot water, which was in Arianna’s room. She had to let Travis in and throw him a big towel.

Before taking his shower, Travis said, “Please help me dry my clothes.”

“You can ask either of the two ladies downstairs to help you with that. I don’t work here.”

“Arianna, if you were smart, you would hide your emotions. Don’t challenge me before I leave.”

“I’m not afraid of you,” Arianna said fearlessly.

Travis snorted before he turned around and entered the bathroom. After half a minute, his shirt and pants were thrown out the bathroom door.

Arianna stood there for a while. She didn’t bring many clothes. She was only left with her white wool skirt with two wet trousers. She picked up Travis’s clothes, wanting to tear them into pieces. However, she didn’t want to see him naked ever again, even if his body was gorgeous.

She started blow-drying the clothes, thinking it would be the fastest way to dry them. Arianna didn’t want to bother the woman and her daughter despite what she said to Travis. They had been very good to her during her stay. When the blow-drying was half-finished, Arianna found iron to dry the clothes off completely.

This was the first time she had ever done such a thing for him. He usually had servants to do such mundane chores.

But this would be the last time too. She folded his clothes and put them on a chair near the bathroom door as she thought about this. She then went downstairs to help the two ladies.

It appeared that they really needed the help anyways, provided they were short-statured. They could hardly reach the nail on which they wanted to hang a picture on, even when they stood on a chair.

So Arianna immediately volunteered to do it. While up on the chair, the daughter asked her from below, “Is that your boyfriend? Are you guys still fighting? He is so handsome.”
