Selena gave Ariana a desperate look.
Ariana gestured for Selena to escape quickly.
+25 BONUS
Earlier, Selena had spread rumors that Brian was impotent. Because of that, her family had already become his target.
Selena’s parents had told her more than once not to provoke Brian. So, she quickly came up with an excuse to leave. “I have something to take care of at home. Mr. Lodge. I’ll leave you to talk with Ari.”
With that, she dashed off.
After Selena left, the room was even quieter.
Ariana looked at Brian as though nothing mattered. “Mr. Lodge, did you need something?”
Brian walked closer to Ariana. “I had no idea you cared about me so much.”
Ariana froze. When had she ever cared about him? Did anything she said to Selena just now sound like she cared? She was only worried about herself.
“What… do you
want?”
Ariana became more cautious. She was afraid Brian would have other ideas.
Brian and Evelyn were like time bombs to her. She would rather keep her distance from Brian forever, but fate had thrust her into this situation the moment she was reborn.
“Have you invested in the land in South Gleaston?”
“You came all this way just to ask me that?”
Ariana frowned. She wondered if Brian was out of his mind He used to never show up in person for such a trivial
matter.
“Just answer my question.
“No.”
Of course, Ariana wouldn’t admit that she owned that land, so she lied.
Brian said flatly, “Emily said you went to college this morning.”
“Mr. Lodge, that’s quite a jump from your previous question.”
Ariana couldn’t see how the two points were related. Was he just trying to make things difficult for her?
Brian looked at Ariana and said casually, “I have no relationship with Elise, and I don’t have one with Fiona either.
“Why are you telling me this? I know the woman you have relationship with is Evelyn.”
To brian, Elise was just a potential match for a marriage alance, and Fiona was merely a poor Imitation of Evelyn
When Evelyn returned from overseas in three years, Brian ould do whatever It took to propose to her. Evelyn would accept his proposal, and they’d have a grand wedding for the whole world to see.
The only one leff miserable would be his fiancée. Arlana li no intention of being that woman.
