---- Chapter 118 Aria stayed quiet for a long time. After a while, she firmly said, "He's not that kind of person. Dr. White would never do something like that." I sighed but didn't say anything. Just then, the door suddenly opened. I quickly said to her, "Something came up. I'll call you back." Jonathan walked in. When he saw me end the call, a flicker of coldness flashed in his eyes. "Since when do you avoid me even when you're on the phone? "he asked. Ididn't answer his question.

Instead, I stared straight at him. "You told me you wouldn't keep me locked up anymore. I should have the right to go wherever I want, shouldn't I?" Jonathan closed the door and walked over to me. "Where do you want to go?" he asked coldly. "I mean, I should be free to go wherever I want without having to explain to you," I replied. "Are you going to see Frederick?" he asked. He acted as if he hadn't heard my words and drew his own conclusion.

He continued, "Every time you leave Ford Manor, the first ---- thing you do is go to Frederick. What's so great about him? Why do you keep going back to him like that?" I could hear the mockery in his voice, but honestly, he had no right to question me. "What about you?" I snapped. "You spend all your free time with Alicia." Jonathan tugged at his collar irritably. "I've explained this to you many times. There's no need to keep repeating yourself.

Ford won't be returning to the master bedroom tonight." I gave a brief reply and didn't say anything else. He paused, then walked in and frowned slightly . "Mr. Ford rarely stays out overnight . Don't you want to ask what he's doing?" ---- Iwas irritated by the pain in my wrist. "What he's doing has nothing to do with me." Hugh shook his head helplessly. "What good will it do you to keep going against him like this?" I found their comments all strange and didn't feel like explaining myself.

I started searching through drawers and cabinets inside the room. Hugh noticed and asked, "Did you lose something?" Tlooked up at him. "Do we have a first-aid kit?" Hugh frowned. "Why do you need it?" Ismiled and said, "Nothing. Just tell me if there is one." Hugh nodded. "Yes, we do. Please wait here. I'll bring it to you. " Istood up and replied, "No need. I'll go with you." Ireally didn't want him to make a second trip. Hugh didn't argue. I followed behind him.

As we passed through the hall, [heard a familiar voice. "Jonathan, is Elise mad at you again?" Iturned toward the voice and saw Jonathan , the same man who had just said he wouldn't return to the bedroom. He was sitting on the sofa in the living room, with Alicia right next to him, wearing a pitiful expression. ---- "Treally didn't mean what I said earlier ,"" she said. "I would never try to ruin your relationship with her.

I just can't stand how she treats you sometimes..." Jonathan said nothing. Instead , Edward suddenly spoke up, "Don't pay attention to her. That woman is just petty."
