Selena looked at Ariana seriously and said, “Ari, both Willian and Victor and better than Brian.”
Ariana’s lips twitched.”
The news didn’t make sense in the first place.
Putting aside William, Victor had been loyal to Evelyn in het past life. There were once rumors that he came to Gleaston just for Evelyn.
And what did that have to do with Ariana?
Besides, Evelyn had once charmed both William and her childhood sweetheart Brennan with her good looks. Brennan and Victor had sacrificed the most for Evelyn in her past life.
Ariana did not play any role in that complicated relationship. She was nothing but a pawn. If this were a novel, she couldn’t even be considered the second female lead.
Right when Selena was selecting the best candidate for Ariana’s fiancé. Ariana suddenly received a message from Victor. It had been a while since he reached out.
She checked out the chat, Victor had sent her a document that put a smile on her face.
Meanwhile, Selena yelled, “Ari! Ari! Did you hear everything I said just now?”
“Yeah.”
“Who do you like better?”
“Well, that’ll be Victor Smith right now.”
“Huh?”
The document that Victor sent was a loan agreement. The borrower was Gwen.
When Ariana came downstairs the next morning, Francine noticed she was alone and blurted out, “Ms. Torrey, Mr. Lodge stayed out all night.”
“Oh.” Sounding indifferent, Ariana replied, “If that’s the case, you don’t have to prepare breakfast for him.”
Francine was speechless.
How could Ariana enjoy breakfast calmly when her fiancé hadn’t come home all night?
Ariana casually took a few bites and said, “By the way, I’ll be home late tonight, so don’t bother preparing dinner
for me.”

“Ms. Torrey! Where are you going this evening?” Francine grew anxious.
Yesterday, Ariana had left early and returned late, which had already upset Belinda.
Was she going to come home late again? Was she deliberately stirring up trouble with Belinda and Brian?
Ariana waved her hand dismissively and left without answering Francine.
During the day, Ariana stayed at the library, meticulously studying the principles of economics as well as books on

monetary and financial systems.
Before she knew it, it was already evening. Checking the time on her watch, she confirmed that it was time for her appointment and walked out of the library holding her books.
Outside the entrance of the college, a crowd had already gathered to stare at a limited–edition black Maybach.
Of course, it wasn’t the car itself that drew attention. Rather, they were attracted to the fact it was a limited edition.
In all of Gleaston, anyone who drove such a car was either wealthy, powerful, or both.
While everyone speculated about the identity of the car’s owner, Ariana stepped out from the crowd and walked straight toward the car.
“Isn’t that Ariana Torrey? Is that her car?”
“No way. The Torrey family couldn’t possibly afford a car like that.”
“I bet she’s just trying to seduce the owner. Haven’t you heard about Ariana’s reputation? She’s all about marrying rich!”
The car window rolled down at that moment.
Ariana heard Victor’s cold voice from within. He stated flatly, “You’re late.”
