Chapter 29
Arianna wore a fitted white waist shirt and a light purple pencil skirt, perfectly accentuating her figure.
The carefully groomed hair fell naturally on the side of the face, which was somewhat obstructive while cutting and cooking.
Bryce didn’t think much and took off the hairband prepared by Grace from his wrist. He walked behind Arianna and helped her tie up her hair.
After noticing the person behind her, she turned around in surprise and. said thank you.
“I bothered Bryce, please wait a little longer, we will be able to eat soon.”
She spoke, but at the same time, she deliberately pretended to be careless and threw the meat with water droplets into the frying pan, instantly causing many oil sparks to burst.
“Be careful!”
Bryce held Arianna in his arms, using his body to shield her from the oil splatters.
At this moment, she pretended to be worried and quickly washed her hands, dampened a tissue, and wiped off the oil splashed on his face.
“Was it hot?”
She asked with concern.
Bryce wanted to avoid her hand, but his eyes inadvertently caught sight of

a wet patch on her chest.
The white shirt was wet by the water and clung tightly to the skin, allowing the scenery beneath her skin and clothes to be visible.

He quickly averted his gaze, but a strange sense of unease arose in hist heart.
“No need, I had nothing to do, you can continue cooking.”
Bryce grabbed her hand, stopping her movement, and quickly left the kitchen
He couldn’t cook, but he still had some doubts in his mind.
So, I stopped and watched Arianna’s graceful figure, and the uneasiness. in my heart became even more apparent.
Would people who are busy in the kitchen dress like this and find it inconvenient to move around?
In the past, when she helped in the kitchen, she never dressed like this.
At that time, she was wearing the uniform of a servant, with a plain face and her hair neatly tied up.
But now…
At the dining table, Bryce deliberately sat in the farthest position from Arianna and did not want to have any intimate contact with her.
However, Alden and Drake did not realize, they just thought he was acting a bit strange, but didn’t think much of it.
In the evening, Arianna stayed in the house again, under the pretext of taking care of them.
Just as Bryce was about to fall asleep, his bedroom door was suddenly knocked on.
“What happened?”
He still had the same tone as before, but Arianna did not doubt it.
She wrapped herself in a towel, with damp hair sticking to her head, and shivered a few times.
“Bryce, the hot water in my room suddenly went out, can I borrow your room for a while?”
Knowing full well what she might do, he still let her in.
He did want to see how far she could go.
As soon as Arianna entered the bathroom, Bryce’s expression instantly turned cold.
After a while of water sound, I don’t know what she did inside, but she finally agreed to come out.
The bathroom opened, and a strange fragrance rushed into his nostrils. He instinctively tugged at his collar and inexplicably felt a bit hot.
Unfortunately, at that moment, Arianna was wearing only a thin strap dress that barely covered anything, and she was innocently smiling.
“Bryce, thank you so much! I finished washing.”
She walked towards Bryce as she spoke.
Feeling the heat rushing towards him from below, he instantly changed his expression.
דו
One hand tightly gripped Arianna’s wrist, while the other pressed on her shoulder, exerting enough force to leave several distinct finger marks.
“Ah!” The delicate cry suddenly became sharp and piercing, and she was in so much pain that tears streamed down her face.
Just as she was about to plead with him to be gentler, Bryce heartlessly threw her out of the room.
He tightly gripped her neck, his voice becoming extremely cold, and his defiant face filled with ferocity.
“Who gave you the audacity to drug me? Trying to seduce me?”
