Chapter 697
Seeing the situation, Ariah interrupted ad asked, "Lennon, why don't you come in and have a cup of tea?"
In the meantime, Ariah tried to give Lennon a hint and told him that it wasn't a wise move to forcefully take Emily away right now.
Some things might go in the opposite direction when they reach the extreme, and with Emily's temper, clearly, Lennon couldn't force her.
At that moment, Lennon seemed to have understood Ariah's good intentions, so he glanced at her and slowly nodded. "I'll have to bother you then."
"Oh, it's nothing. Please, come in."
As soon as Ariah finished, she quickly took Emily away from the bodyguards and brought Emily, who was in anger, into the house.
For a moment, Lennon hesitated, then stepped inside.
However, Ariah's unit was so small that it was out of his expectation. The whole unit was even smaller than the living room in Lennon's villa, and with the three of them in the small living room, it seemed even more crowded.
Stunned, Lennon stood at the door as he didn't know where to stand.
Then, Ariah pointed at a single-seated couch in the corner, "Lennon, please have a seat first. What would you like to drink?"
"A cup of coffee will do. Thank you."
"Uh... are you okay with instant coffee?" In fact, Ariah really didn't have any high-grade coffee at her place.
With a nod, Lennon answered, "Mhmm.".
"I'll go and prepare it then." After Ariah glanced at Emily, she headed to the kitchen.
At that moment, Emily was sitting on another couch, far away from Lennon. In fact, Emily was leaning to her side, obviously resisting Lennon.
Meanwhile, Lennon stared at Emily in silence.
Even though Emily did not turn around, she still felt uncomfortable. However, just as she was about to get up and return to Ariah's room, Ariah walked out of the kitchen with two cups in her hands. "Have a drink."
"Thank you." Politely, Lennon accepted it, then glanced at Emily, who was in a fit. In an unhappy tone, he said, "What should you say at a time like this?"
As Emily took the cup from Ariah's hand, she pouted and said in a low voice, "Thank you."
As Ariah looked at the two of them, she raised her eyebrows.
Well, that was pretty interesting.
"Ariah, I'm tired. I want to rest for a while." Suddenly, Emily put down her cup and stood up.
"Alright, you can go rest." Softly, Ariah patted Emily's hand.
Immediately, Lennon frowned. Before he could say anything, Ariah spoke first, "Lennon, I live on the sixth floor, and Emily would not be able to fly away without wings."
With an eyebrow raised, Lennon looked at Ariah. "Miss Myers, you've only known Emily for half a month. How could you both be so close to each other?"
After Ariah sat down opposite Lennon, she explained, "Emily complements my personality. She is a kind-hearted extrovert, and I could never resist a girl with this kind of character."
Slightly surprised, Lennon asked, "Just because of that, you both can be such close friends?"
When Ariah heard Lennon's question, she spread out her hands, "Or else, what do you think the reason is?" "There are benefits to be gained."
Stunned, Ariah didn't expect that Lennon would say something like that, and she couldn't help but laugh, "What benefit can a young lady like her possibly give me?"
Suddenly, Lennon leaned his strong figure back, crossed his legs, and slightly raised his eyebrows. "Don't you know about her family background?"
".Uh... what family background does Emily have?"
It seemed that Ariah really didn't know.
"Her family is flushed with money. Back in Mathines, Emily was raised in a high- class society. Since young, she had been living an extravagant life. Although she is still young, the assets that her father left her could last her whole life."
Cooperatively, Ariah reacted with a shocking expression and exclaimed, "I didn't expect her to be so rich. That's great."
It made Lennon at a loss for words.
Although Ariah said so, she didn't seem surprised at all.
Then, Ariah shook her head and laughed, "Lennon, I don't know about your background, so I don't know your criteria for making friends. However, what I want to tell you is, when I met Emily, I didn't know anything about her family. If you were to say that I am friends with her to gain some benefits, then I guess I would be friends with Emily because of her beauty."
Indeed, Emily was gorgeous. If Emily didn't say anything and just sat there quietly, she would be as beautiful as a painting.
But once she moved, the painting would immediately be ruined.
With a frown, Lennon looked at Ariah with a hint of scrutiny in his eyes.
Since Ariah knew that a person like Lennon would never understand what she meant, so she simply went straight to the point, "Lennon, I'll help you persuade Alice back."
Taken aback, Lennon looked at Ariah. "Why are you helping me?"
"Because I want to get something from you."
"Oh?" Immediately, Lennon raised his eyebrows. "Tell me about it."
"I want you to tell me all the information you know about the two people that you know. You must tell me the truth, and you can't hide anything from me.
With a sincere smile, Lennon said, "I have done business with many people. There were both men and women, but all they ask for is money, and I've seen no one like you who asked me for information."
At that moment, Ariah chucked, "Then Lennon, are you willing to do this business?"
Slowly, Lennon picked up his cup and took a sip of coffee. Due to the poor taste of coffee, he frowned. When Ariah saw his expression, she thought that he was unwilling to do the business, so she hurriedly said, "I'm not going to ask for too much information. I just want to know, was there a couple who came to your villa yesterday? Do you know what's going on between them?"
"You mean Camden?"
"Camden..." Ariah continued, "That's the name of that man, right? What about that woman? Do you know about her background?"
As Lennon put his cup down, he uttered, "As far as I know, this woman has been by Camden's side for several years."
"In addition to these, what else do you know?"
"What else do you want to know?"
For a moment, Ariah pursed her lips. "I want to know where does he live right now?"
Suddenly, Lennon's face darkened, and he sat up straight. "Miss Myers, since you and Emily are friends, I sincerely advise you not to mess with Camden. He's a cold-blooded and heartless man. No matter what your intentions are, don't mess with him."
If Ariah were to listen to Lennon, it meant that Camden was indeed a terrible man.
So was Nicole really in danger?
However, Ariah bit her lip and said the same thing, "Can you give me his address?"
"Why are you so ignorant?" Coldly, Lennon said, "Camden is a man whom I don't even dare to touch me. What do you want from him? Where's Jimmy? Does he know that you have such
dangerous thoughts?"
At that moment, Ariah fell silent. The only reason Ariah wanted to know was just in case Jimmy was in danger. All content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
Since Jimmy had gone to save Nicole, he must have been at risk of danger. If anything were to happen to him, Ariah would be able to know Jimmy's location so that she could find him.
But Lennon didn't want to tell her.
"Can you tell me why do you want Camden's address then?"
"No." Immediately, Ariah shook her head. "You might know the reason tomorrow, but I can't tell you now. After all, you and Camden are friends. You will be on his side."
Hearing that, Lennon raised his eyebrows. "So, are you saying that someone is going to make a move against Camden?"
With a nervous expression, Ariah said, "I didn't say that."
Then, Lennon sneered. "Even if someone were to make a move on Camden, the person who would get hurt would never be Camden. Also, I'm not Camden's friend, so no matter what happened to him, I won't be worried."
In fact, anyone could die, but Camden would never be the one who dies, so Lennon did not have to worry.
