A Bride’s Revenge: No Longer The Back Up Novel

Chapter 10 Brian glared at Ariana with hatred in his eyes .

His voice we cold and he sounded as if he wanted to shred her into pleces , Brian ! Dont be like that youve misunderstood Ms.

Torry ! I was the one who wanted to do it … Youre too kind for your own good , Eve , and thats why people keep walking all over you .

I told you that you didnt have to see her ! Ariana watched as Brian continued defending Evelyn .

She land of expected it , to be honest .

After all , Evelyn would always manage to get hurt every time Brian appeared .

Ariana had already sensed that something was wrong from the moment Evelyn fell to her knees .

Still , she didnt mind playing along to Evelyns tune and pushing things in her direction .

Ultimately , she needed to get Brian to hate her .

He would then have to call off the engagement whether he liked it or not .

Ariana Torrey ! I used to think that you were just a two faced , backstabbing bitch , but I didnt think youd be so evil as well ! Eve has always had a weak body .

If anything happens to her , Ill make you pay ! With that , Brian pulled Evelyn away and turned to leave .

Evelyn had had plenty of time to explain all throughout the hullabaloo , but she chose to remain quiet .

In fact , she even cast an apologetic look at Ariana from time to time .

Still , Ariana was able to catch the hint of glee in Evelyns eyes that nearly went undetected by the others .

It was as if Evelyn was gloating in her face .

So what if Brian and Ariana were engaged ? Brian was still in love with her anyway .

Seeing that , Ariana bent down to pick up the debit card from the ground and stopped the two from leaving .

Ms.

Granger , you left your card behind .

Evelyn turned around .

Brian also saw the debit card in Arianas hand .

He frowned and asked , Eve , did you give her money ? Evelyn bit on her lower lip and said , I just … I didnt want you to call off the engagement because of me .

Before Brian could respond , Ariana said , Ms.

Granger , this engagement will definitely be canceled .

Im sure that Mr.

Lodge refuses to be engaged with a two faced , backstabbing , evil witch like me .

So , I wont be using any of this money at all .

Then , Ariana returned the debit card to Evelyn .

She wasnt daft .

Evelyn had purposely left her debit card behind .

If things were to go her way as she planned , and Brian found out about it much later on , things would get even more out of hand next time .

Lets go , Eve .

Brian didnt pick up the conversation .

Instead , he tugged on Evelyn and left with her .

Back at the Torrey residence , Gwen was waiting impatiently at home as she paced around .

That Ariana … Where the heck did she go after leaving so early in the morning ? Chapter 10 Mom , if Ariana doesnt get married , doesnt that mean everything that belongs to the Torrey family will eventually end up in her hands ? But you told me that Dad left all that money to me ! Igor was antsy .

He had already bragged to his classmates that he was going to be inheriting all of the Torrey assets and fortune .

He wasnt going to be satisfied with just the measly five million dollars that his stepfather left for him and Gwen ! That would be preposterous ! Gwens eyes glinted darkly when she heard Igors words .

Dont worry .

Ive got plenty of tricks to make sure that she gets married to someone ! Even if she doesnt get married to the Lodges , she can still get married to many other people in Gleaston ! Ariana was one of the prettiest and most capable women In leaston .

There had been many rich bachelors pining after her even before she got engaged to the Lodges .

If Brian really didnt want Ariana then , Gwen would still make sure that she was married off to someone else ! This way , Ariana wouldnt have the means to run Torrey Co , anymore , and the company would eventually fall into both Gwens and Igors hands .

While Gwen was still thinking up her dubious plans , Ariana walked in through the door .

Seeing that she was back , Gwen immediately approached her and asked , Ari , did Mr Lodge take you out just now ? Have you both made up ?
