Chapter 233 Your Filthy Tricks

“Doesn’t it take a while for the water to heat up? When I was living by the countryside, it’d take about five to six minutes before the water becomes warm.” Arielle smiled innocently.

Yvette studied her face to make out if she was speaking the truth. She was relieved when she found nothing odd.

No wonder she’s out here while the water was running in the bathroom. This country girl probably didn’t know that the water system in my house maintains at a constant temperature, and hot water would run from the showerhead instantly.

“I knew you were going to hand me some clean clothes anyway. Thus, I decided to wait until you bring me the clothes before I hop into the shower,” Arielle continued.

Yvette’s suspicion instantly vanished when she heard Arielle’s explanation.

I guess I’ve overestimated her.

Yvette smiled and said, “Actually, our house runs on a constant temperature water system. So there’s no need to wait.”

“Oh, I see,” Arielle exclaimed in surprise. “How advanced! It’s not like this back at in my place.”

Yvette had never showered at the Southalls, so she didn’t know that Arielle was lying.

Thus when Yvette heard that, she secretly sneered at Arielle’s statement and looked down on the Southalls too.

I can’t believe they’d have to wait for the water to heat up!

“Alright. You can take a shower now. Do have some cake when you’re done. My dad’s probably done with his shower as well and is waiting for you. I believe he has prepared a surprise for you. I hope you won’t refuse it because you deserved it!” Yvette said.

Well, the huge surprise I’m about to gift you is also something only you deserve. It’s a shame you’re always in my way. Or else I wouldn’t have to do this.

Yet, she did not know that Arielle had understood the hidden meaning behind her words. She had already guessed what the “huge surprise” was about.
