Chapter 1510 The Confidence
‘‘Wait!’‘ Arielle quickly stopped Melissa before continuing, ‘‘Maybe you should just bring us to Old Mrs.
Nighy. I know it’s not easy for her to get around, so I don’t want to trouble her.’‘
Melissa’s smile grew even wider when she realized how considerate Arielle was, so she gladly agreed
to the request. ‘‘I’m sure she’ll be more than happy to see you again. Ever since she found out that it
was you who saved her, she’s been nagging us to invite you over so that she can thank you in person.’‘
The smile on Arielle’s face, too, widened, for she was convinced that it would not be difficult to gain
Matthew’s favor at that point. ‘‘It’s nothing, really. Treating the ill and the injured is my job. I was just
fulfilling my duty.’‘
As the two conversed, Nico let go of her mother’s arm and intentionally slowed down.
‘‘Hey, what’s your name?’‘ Nico turned to ask Vinson. ‘‘I still don’t know what to call you.’‘
Vinson would not have bothered to answer the question had they been in a different situation.
However, considering what Arielle was trying to achieve then, it would be rude for him to ignore Nico.
‘‘Knightley. That’s my last name.’‘
Nico was thrilled when she heard Vinson, for she never expected that the man would reply to her.
‘‘What’s your first name then?’‘
In response, Vinson only glanced at Nico, refusing to answer any more questions.
Still, Nico was happy with what she had gotten so far. I guess it’s better than nothing. At least I have his
last name now. Why did he decide to answer me, though? Could he have changed his mind because
he saw how grand our house is? Maybe he’s decided to become my boyfriend!
Nico had always been a straightforward person, so naturally, she jumped straight to the point.
‘‘Hey, Knightley. Have you decided to be my boyfriend?’‘ inquired Nico as she stared expectantly at
Vinson.
The woman was ready to give Vinson all the resources he would need to become the most powerful
man in Turlen should he agree to date her.
‘‘No,’‘ answered Vinson with a frown. All I did was give her a fake last name, so why would she
suddenly think I wanted to be her boyfriend?
After some thought, Vinson was convinced that it would be best for him to just stay silent.
Even though Arielle was conversing with Melissa, she was aware that Nico deliberately slowed down to
talk to Vinson. After giving the man an ambiguous smile, Arielle shifted her attention back to Melissa.
Because of Vinson’s answer, the smile on Nico instantly vanished.
However, it did not take long before the woman recollected herself. Nico told herself that it was okay
and that she just had to keep trying to win the man’s heart. With enough time and effort, I’m sure that
he’ll come around one day. There’s nothing he can do about Ms. Moore since he’s just her bodyguard.
Prince Aaron always gets what he wants.
‘‘That’s because you don’t know what you’re missing just yet. But don’t worry. I can wait.’‘ With that,
Nico hurried back to Melissa’s side, afraid that her mother would notice her absence. After all, Melissa
had already warned her back at Dylan’s birthday celebration.
Baffled, Vinson raised an eyebrow at the young woman. What gave her such confidence? I don’t think
anybody in their right mind would want to be her boyfriend.
