Chapter 21 Ariana was definitely getting the money .

Damn , thats plucky of you , borrowing from him .

You had mouthed him a lot previously , and now youre borrowing money from him .

And he actually lent it to you Brian and William are enemies .

Of course , hell lend me the money if I can help him , Ariana said .

Good point , Selena said before doing a double take .

Walt , what are you helping him with ? Dealing with Brian .

What ? Youre really going to go up against Brian ? Selena was shocked .

She had witnessed firsthand how much Ariana had loved Brian .

She thought that Ariana was just throwing a temper tantrum .

Who wouldve guessed she was serious about breaking off her engagement with Brian ? Shed finally grown a spine ! Ariana couldnt help but laugh bitterly when she saw Selenas shocked reaction .

Even her best friend thought that she wouldnt be able to live without Brian .

What did everyone else think of her , then ? The eldest daughter of the Torrey family had turned into a living joke just for a man .

It was truly laughable .

That evening , Gwen brought a well dressed Fiona to Lodge Co , and went straight up to the CEOs office .

In the office , she looked at Brian and said with a simpering smile , Mr.

Lodge , I know Ariana upset you with her childish antics recently .

Shes too stubborn to apologize , so I brought her cousin here instead to apologize on her behalf .

Brian scoffed .

Is that so ? Did Ariana ask you to come ? Of course she did ! Gwen said hastily .

She knows shes in the wrong .

She hadnt really meant to break off the engagement .

Mr.

Lodge , please forgive her for being young and rash .

Hearing that Ariana had admitted to her mistakes , Brian said coldly , At least she has some self awareness .

Of course , she does ! Gwen quickly gave Fiona a meaningful look .

Fiona had been staring at Brian the entire time .

From the moment she entered the office , her eyes never left him .

Shed never seen anyone as handsome as him .

She was completely mesmerized .

Fiona , arent you going to greet Mr.

Lodge ? Thats Arianas husband , so hes basically your brother in law ! Mr.

Lodge … Fiona lowered her head shyly .

For some reason , the words brother in law put Brian in good mood .

Even though Ariana talked about breaking off their engagement , her actions were a different story altogether .

In the end , she was the one clinging to him and begging him to resume the engagement .

Lodge , Fiona here just came from the village .

Could you help her ? Thats easy , Brian said indifferently .

I just need to make a call .

Gwen was overjoyed .

Quick , thank Mr.

Lodge , Flona ! Dont thank me just yet , Brian interjected coldly .

Now that Ive agreed to help you , Ariana should show me some gratitude , She will , she will ! Ill bring her here tomorrow to apologize to you .
