Chapter 488
Spoiled by Mr. Russell
Pursing her lips, Brittany said, âIâll stop being angry if you stop saying that.â
Upon hearing this, Arianna could not help but laugh as she reached out to pinch Brittanyâs cheek. âYou idi*t! Even if youâre a dog, youâd still be the cutest dog Iâve seen!â
âEnough!â Brittany stomped her feet like a little kid.
âAll right, all right. We wonât talk about that anymore. Can you let go of me now?â She looked down at the hand that was holding lier wrist.
âNo. What if you run away?â
Arianna laughed. âThis is my house. Where can I run? I want to go upstairs to change out of my clothes. Youâve stained my clothes, yet, you donât want to get me a new pair. Now, youâre not even letting me change into something more comfortable.â
Brittany understood what she meant and hurriedly let go of her hand.
However, even after she let go, Arianna was not in a hurry to leave. âDo you want to come with me?
Your clothes are dirty as well. You can borrow some of mine first.â
Hearing this, Brittany glanced down at the stain on her chest. It was stained, so she did not refuse and followed Arianna to her room.
Arianna changed out of her stained clothes and passed another set of fresh clothing to Brittany. Once she changed into Ariannaâs clothes, Arianna pulled Brittanyâs hair back and turned her head to face the mirror. âLook at how beautiful you are!â
As Brittany looked at herself in the mirror, she noticed how her eyes twinkled and her pearly white teeth shone. Although her eyes swelled from crying, it did not affect her beauty. In fact, she looked pitiful. So why did Alexander not like her?
Her eyes immediately reddened at the thought of this, and she could not stop the tears that rolled down her cheeks, âLook at you.â Arianna reached out to hold Brittanyâs chin and said, âYouâre so pretty. Why are you overthinking so much?â
âI am pretty, but why doesnât he like me? What exactly does he like?â Brittany muttered herself.
âThatâs where youâre wrong!â Arianna exclaimed as she squeezed Brittanyâs chin.
Brittany frowned from the pain and raised her head to look at Arianna. However, Arianna was focused on her reflection in the mirror. âBrittany, do you know where you went wrong?â
Brittany shook her head.
âYouâre focusing too much on him! You put yourself so far from the pedestal that he canât even see you!â
âH-He canât see me?â Brittany blinked and noticed the confusion in her own eyes through the mirror.
âWhat is she talking about?â
âYeah! Donât you know that men love the chase? Yet, you keep sending yourself to his doorstep, always ready to serve and ensure heâs okay. What are you doing? Is he looking for a babysitter? Does he need a servant?â Every sentence from Arianna pierced Brittanyâs heart, making her frown unhappily.
âI just want him to see the good in me.â
âIf you want him to see the good in you, you shouldnât be doing all that. Brittany, you should chase your own happiness!â Arianna advised as she took Brittanyâs hand and squeezed it tightly.
