Chapter 74

After a long moment, Arielle finally responded, “Thank you. Frankly, relationship matters are at the bottom of my priority list. I’m sorry, but I have countless issues to deal with.”

Immediately, Harvey’s bright gaze dimmed with disappointment. His joy seemed to deflate like balloon pierced with a needle

Yet, he regained his composure in the blink of an eye. “It’s all right. I understand this confession must have taken you by surprise as I said it without warning. Can we remain friends? I won’t tell anyone that we have met overseas. Today is the first day we’ve met.” Harvey forced a smile to mask his sorrow.

“H-L…don’t even want to make new friends. However, thank you for your offer,” Arielle replied after a moment of hesitation.

“What are you planning? Why do you need to conceal your identity and avoid any romance? You can’t even make new friends?” Harvey asked Suspiciously.

Arielle averted her gaze guiltily. “I’m handling some private matters…”

Harvey sensed that Arielle’s mood had dropped. Immediately, he apologized profusely. “I’m sorry, I’ve overstepped my boundaries. I shouldn’t have pestered you with so many questions. However, you can contact me anytime if you need help. No matter the situation, I will help you.”

“Thank you,” Arielle beamed her reply.
