Lahat ng Kabanata ng Sorry, but I'm Out of Your League: Kabanata 321 - Kabanata 330

After Ariana saw who it was, she realized she recognized the wrong person. This woman resembled Joanne somewhat. Rather, she looked more like Irene. Ariana asked curiously, "Who are you?" Shanice walked over. Her gaze was filled with undisguised jealousy as she scrutinized Ariana's features, and then, she said, "You're nothing special, after all!" Ariana could see the malice and resentment in her eyes, but she did not even know this woman. "So you're the one who orchestrated all this? What do you want? I've never wronged you. Do you realize what you're doing is illegal?" Shanice smiled. Actually, she seemed pretty harmless. She was even better at playing innocent than Joanne. But as Ariana looked at her now, she felt like Shanice was a man-eating plant. Even though she was smiling, her face was full of ill intent. She might appear friendly on the outside, but she had ill intentions. With two men flanking Ariana, Shanice naturally felt emboldened. She approached Ariana. "N

Shanice had just described that man as incredibly handsome, brave, tall, and exceptionally capable. She also said he was attentive and caring and had been looking after Ariana for years. Could that possibly be Connor? Was it the same Connor that Ariana knew? Had the world gone mad? Like Spencer and Jensen, Ariana had known Connor since childhood. Growing up, Connor had used every opportunity to target her, humiliate her, and bully her. He would put her down and embarrass her whenever he had the chance to. Sometimes, Ariana wondered if she had done horrible things to him in a past life for him to target her so relentlessly in this life. But now, someone was saying that Connor had done all of this out of love. Ariana was almost laughing at how absurd it was. "That's right! That's the Connor you've been ignoring! He's always been by your side, but you never gave him any attention!" Ariana looked at her. "So, are you here today to right this wrong on his behalf? To teach me a les

Shanice had been maintaining a proper distance from Ariana. Ariana was flanked by two large men, so ensuring Ariana's safety was not an issue. However, Shanice had been cautious the whole time. She never expected that Ariana would seize an opportunity. With a razor blade pressed against her throat now, she did not dare move. "I'm a doctor. I know exactly where and how to cut a major artery. By the time you get to a hospital, it'll be too late." Hearing these words whispered in her ear, Shanice was shocked and frightened. "You... You wouldn't dare! Murder... Murder is illegal!" "I know." Ariana smiled. "But you kidnapped me first. At most, this could be considered self-defense, right?" Whether it was self-defense or not, Ariana had the upper hand now. She instructed, "Tell them to take me back. It's best if you behave. If not, if my hand slips... your beautiful neck might end up with a fatal wound." What could Shanice do? She could even feel the cold of the thin blade agains

Connor put the call on speakerphone. "Spencer is right beside me. Tell us. What exactly happened?" Shanice instantly went quiet. Spencer bellowed, "Speak!" Shanice sobbed a couple of times before saying, "I... I was just upset... I felt that Spencer treated her so well, but she didn't appreciate it. So, I... I just wanted to invite her over to talk. Who knew she would..." "Invite?" Spencer's face darkened. His voice turned icy. "How did you 'invite' her? Who gave you the right to do that?" "I was just joking! I also wanted you two to make up soon..." Connor interjected, "Even if you didn't mean harm, what you did was wrong. Where are you now? Where's Ariana?" "I'm at the hotel." Shanice cried and said, "I sent her back to the research center. She's unharmed. I was so scared, Connor..." "Shut up!" Connor hung up the phone right away. He then looked at Spencer. "What should we do?" Spencer slammed the steering wheel hard. "Is she insane? Who told her to do such a thing?

Spencer saw mockery and amusement in Ariana's smile. He felt panicked. "The reason I acted that way was because... for me, Irene is very important—" "Spencer," Ariana interrupted him. "Actually, I've always had a question. May I ask?" Spencer nodded. "Of course, go ahead." "If you like Irene, why did you let her go back then?" Ariana asked. "Since you still can't let her go, why didn't you pursue her after our divorce? Why are you clinging to me? Is it just to get revenge and to disgust me?"Before Spencer could answer, Ariana continued, "If that's the case, I admit defeat, okay? "Yes. During the divorce, I used undignified methods and embarrassed you at the shareholders' meeting. I'll apologize to you now. If you need, I can even go back to Harvoria and apologize to you in front of all the shareholders...""It's not like that..." Spencer felt even more panicked. "I didn't mean that. I... I really like you..." "Please don't use the word 'like,' alright? If liking means bein
