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

Chapter 354 Chapter 354 Who bought the iced tea ? Victor suddenly asked .

Simon answered , I did .

We obviously cant drink alcohol when dining with a lady .

What started talking nonsense? Victor felt speechless .

if we got drunk and Simon continued , Im always looking out for womens safety .

Dont worry , Ms.

Torrey .

Youre safe here .

After dinner , you can even stay the night and sleep soundly ! No one will disturb you .

Ariana glanced at Victor .

I couldnt possibly impose .

Id better not trouble you .

Π Dont worry , there was never a room prepared for you anyway .

Hunters sudden remark killed the mood .

He didnt realize what he had said wrong until he noticed Simon glaring at him .

Had he messed up ? Hunter glanced at Victor next to him .

But that was exactly what Victor had instructed .

Ariana changed the subject .

By the way , why did you call me here , Mr.

Smith ? Was it just to give me this ointment ? It would seem excessive if it was only for that .

Victor , hurry up and tell Ms.

Torrey why you brought her here .

Simon kept winking at Victor .

But Victor ignored him and asked in a calm tone , Whats your connection to South Gleaston ? Simon groaned .

Why bring that up now ? I have no connection to it .

That property belongs to Williams company .

What does it have to do with me ? Ariana answered as if she had rehearsed this lie a hundred times .

Then why did I hear that you were the one who won the bid ? Victor was skeptical .

I was just helping place the bid .

I didnt pay for it .

Youll see Im telling the truth if you investigate .

Ariana calmly picked up some food .

She wasnt stupid .

No matter how Victor asked , she would never reveal her identity as Susan .

Lets eat ! Why ruin the mood with all this business talk ? s not work hours .

Why discuss projects now ? Its a total buzzkill .

Simon quickly signaled Victor to drop the topic .

His plan was for Victor to use the excuse of teaching Ariana how to write with her left hand to get closer to her .

Who knew this guy would suddenly bring up South Gleaston instead ? They had investigated and found it had nothing to do with Ariana .

Victor was just asking unnecessary questions .

Ariana , I like hearing the truth .

That one sentence plunged the room into silence again .

Ariana had to admit Victor had an intimidating presence .

Most people would crack under that pressure and confess .

But she remained composed .

I am telling the truth .

If you dont believe me , investigate all you want .

How do you know I havent already investigated ? Victors gaze sharpened as if he could see right through her .

But almost immediately , she knew that was impossible .

She smiled .

And what did you find ? Victor didnt answer and just kept looking at her .
