Love Strategy: CEO He is Really Scheming！

Chapter 69: Chapter 69 He is Still Her Arlo

The dinner table was silent. Ariel Morris lifted her gaze and sneaked a glance at the person eating quietly across from her before softly asking, ”Arlo Seys, how much did you spend today? Why did the supermarket send an entire box over?” When she opened the door to sign for the items, she was stunned.

Who goes to the supermarket to buy ’bread’—and purchases an entire box of it? Dozens of packets... enough for a year!

”I don’t know, I used my card,” Arlo Seys continued eating, his voice somewhat deep.

He hadn’t even looked at the bill.

Ariel blurted out, ”How am I supposed to pay you back then!”

Arlo’s fingers holding the chopsticks trembled slightly. He looked up, his eyes gradually growing colder, ”Ariel Morris! If you can’t talk, then just shut up!”

Ha, payback? Needing him and calling for help, then paying back and saying goodbye when he’s not needed.

Ariel Morris, just how pathetic am I to never let you go.

Ariel Morris, just how heartless are you to repeatedly provoke me and then leave smoothly.

Ariel felt a bit wronged. How did she annoy him? She hadn’t even said anything! How did she step on Arlo’s sore spot?

With her head down, Ariel cautiously said while eating, ”Arlo, I might need a few days to repay you. You know, I lost my job and have to find another one...”

Arlo’s deep-set eyes flashed with a hint of surprise. What did she mean by losing her job? Did she quit at Era?

Arlo didn’t speak, but his eyes grew colder and he stared directly at Ariel.

Ariel felt shaky under his gaze and weakly replied, ”I won’t default on you. I was planning to leave in a few days, but I’ll repay everything I’ve spent today before I go. Just that I currently have no money, I can’t pay back now.”

”Ariel Morris, you should never have come back!”

Arlo suddenly stood up, kicked back his chair, and went upstairs without finishing his meal.

”...” Did she say something wrong again? He got her fired, and she didn’t even ask about it, so why was he angry? Ariel felt bewildered.

After Arlo went upstairs, Ariel lost her appetite, cleaned up the dishes, and sat on the couch watching TV. She mindlessly flipped through channels with the remote, not finding a single TV show she wanted to watch. She sighed with disinterest and glanced, absent-minded, at the shopping bag on the sofa.

So late, did Arlo go out to buy something? Could it be that Arlo just went to buy her ’bread’?

Would someone as cold and aloof as Arlo, the CEO of Era, really go to the supermarket to buy her ’bread’?

The thought seemed absurd! Just imagining it, she felt it was incongruous!

Ariel looked toward the second floor, and once she was sure Arlo wouldn’t suddenly appear, she immediately shifted closer and opened the shopping bag on the sofa.

What met her eyes were two sets of women’s spring clothes, and they were the latest international brand spring designs! Ariel opened another bag...

She was dumbfounded. This is... clothing?

For her to wear??

First, Arlo went to the supermarket for ’bread,’ and then to buy clothes? All for her?! Was this happiness coming too suddenly?!

No, should she doubt if Arlo was being normal tonight?

Arlo had hate in his eyes—she could clearly feel that—but tonight, his actions kindled a tiny hope in her heart.

Was her Arlo still the same old Arlo? Still the warm sunshine in Ariel Morris’s heart?

Thinking this, Ariel quickly picked up the bags and headed upstairs, knocking at Arlo’s room door.
