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

Chapter 149 +25 BONUS Before Ariana could finish , Evelyn interrupted , It seems Ms.

Torrey and Mr.

Smith are close .

I thought you were trying to help me connect with him , but it turns out you were just toying with me ! Ms.

Granger … Ariana began .

Since Mr.

Smith has no interest in working together , theres no need for further discussion ! With that , Evelyn snatched the land transfer agreement from the table and stormed out .

Arianas expression darkened at Victor .

Victor Smith , what is wrong with you ? Victor took a sip of his wine .

Didnt I already make my stance clear ? I went out of my way to help you get the land , and you not only ruined the deal but also drove her away ! Do you seriously not want that piece of land ? Ariana fumed .

Youre right .

I dont want it , Victor replied nonchalantly You ! Ariana was infuriated .

Victor calmly continued cutting into his steak .

The steak here is quite good .

Would you like to try some , Ms.

Torrey ? Im too angry to eat ! Ariana had never met anyone as unreasonable as Victor .

Evelyn had been willing to gift him a billion dollar plot of land , and yet he refused it .

Victor gestured to Hunter who cleared Evelyns place .

Victor hummed .

While the collaboration with Evelyn didnt work out , we can discuss our own partnership .

What do you mean ? Ariana immediately grew cautious .

Anything coming from Victor had to have strings attached .

Victor smirked .

I recall the Torrey family owns a plot of land in the heart of the city , right ? So what if we do ? Ariana grew cautious .

Ive reviewed the details .

I want to buy it .

Victor nodded .

Ariana froze .

He wanted to buy the Torrey familys land ? She feigned ignorance .

That land is very expensive .

Name your price .

Whatever it is , Ill pay ten times that amount .

Victor smirked .

Ariana was stunned .

Ten times the value ? This was eerily familiar .

Wasnt Victor supposed to pay ten times the value to buy land from Evelyn as part of his pursuit of her ? Why was he now offering the same deal for the Torrey familys land ? That land … Its worth seven or eight billion , she cautiously replied .

Then Ill pay you a hundred billion .

I want the transfer agreement on my desk within three days , Victor demanded .

He put down his glass and added , Ive cut the steak for you Enjoy , Ms.

Torrey .

See you in three days .

With that , Victor stood and left the restaurant .

12 Chapter 149 +25 BONUS Ariana sat frozen , her mind racing .

What just happened ? A Bundred billion dollars to buy her familys land ? Was Victor out of his mind ? Or was he … laundering money ? Suddenly , the realization hit her .

Of course ! He was using this as a way to launder money ! Ariana quickly chased after Victor .

Victor ! Stop right there !! But Victor had already climbed into his car and sped off into the night .

Ariana clenched her fists .

That damn Victor ! She thought he was sincere , but he was just trying to drag her into his schemes ! Theres no way she was letting him get away with this ! Ariana pulled out her phone to call Brian .

But before she could , a sharp pain shot through her back .

Before she could react , a hand clamped over her mouth and nose .
