Semua Bab Sorry, but I'm Out of Your League: Bab 81 - Bab 90

Ariana accepted the coffee and thanked Jacob for it. Then she continued, "Jacob, if you'd like to talk about Spencer, let's not.""Ariana, marriage isn't like dating, where you can break up whenever you want.""Isn't that what you should tell Spencer?"Jacob sighed. "Ariana, I understand what you've gone through. Spencer is at fault, but you should have understood it when you two got married. A marriage of convenience is different. "Spence has his beloved, but Joanne isn't a threat. Don't let her bother you."Ariana laughed. "You're friends, after all. You still side with him. From now on, whoever he likes or is with has nothing to do with me.""Don't think of it that way. That woman holds a special significance for him. I'm sorry to say, although I don't agree with his actions, I understand him," Jacob replied.Ariana scoffed. Jacob continued, "Ariana, I know it's unfair for me to say this. But if you trust me, I'll make sure Spencer treats you well and takes his responsibil

Joanne immediately understood.The man must have feelings for Ariana.She thought about it and asked, "How will you help me?"The man replied, "There's a charity gala tomorrow. Get Spencer to bring you there."…Meanwhile, Sienna was talking to Ariana about the same event. "Mrs. Smith gave me two tickets. I shouldn't waste them. Come with me since your ankle's healed."Ariana agreed since she had no surgeries scheduled for the next day.Sienna needed to attend such events. Ariana didn't feel at ease letting her go alone either.Sienna's mind shifted to their outfits once Ariana agreed. Formal attire was a must for such events.Ariana decided to go along with her plans. Parading Sienna's designs could also be a form of promotion.Ariana would never expect Spencer to be attending the charity gala as well.The gala had commenced when Ariana and Sienna arrived. But some of the distinguished guests had yet to show up.The Lubove family was among the top families in Nordenton, ev

Spencer felt even more restless seeing Ariana in that evening gown.It had been almost three weeks since they had been together, after all.But then again, he didn't expect a look at Ariana to stir up such impulses, even if he was in his prime years. It was to the point where he forgot all about Joanne, who had come with him.Spencer still couldn't bring himself to let go of Ariana's wrist. He turned and hurriedly told Joanne, "Stay here, and wait for me."With that, he pulled Ariana away.The host of the gala was on good terms with Spencer. They had prior experience hosting such events, so there was a room ready upstairs. Spencer knew the way.Many spectators saw them as he led Ariana upstairs.The upper class was aware that the marriage alliance between the Ulrich and Lubove families was kept low profile. There was not even a wedding hosted.They had assumed that Ariana's place as the lady of the Ulrich family was threatened when they saw Spencer repeatedly appear in public w

Ariana recalled and agreed that Spencer could bring her the utmost pleasure during their intimate moments.Yet, he always seemed to never stop, exhausting her completely.That was why Ariana's feelings toward him were always a mix of love and hate."You shut up!" She shoved him away.Spencer felt even more convinced he was right when he saw her anger and embarrassment.As they were grappling, a knock came at the door.It was Sienna calling from outside. "Ari? Ari, are you okay?"Ariana answered, "I'm fine."She was about to leave when Spencer pulled her back again."What are you doing!"Spencer draped his coat over her shoulders. "Either you go home now, or you wear my clothes."Ariana glared at him, gritting her teeth. She then clutched his coat around her and left.Spencer followed her out in long strides.Sienna was finally relieved upon seeing Ariana come out.An attendant happened to pass by. Ariana took a glass of juice and handed another to Sienna.The attendant n

Spencer had been on top of Joanne just a moment ago, and now, he was trying to get handsy with Ariana.Ariana was pressed against him, and she could feel that he had an abnormally high temperature."Get her out." Ariana grabbed Spencer's wandering hands as she said to Jensen, "Bring us a bucket of cold water. The icier, the better."Jensen didn't bother being gentle with Joanne. He tossed her out and shut the door before going to the bathroom to get water. Sienna had realized that something didn't seem right. She asked, "What's wrong with him, Ari?""He must have drunk something." Ariana had only heard of this kind of thing before, but this was the first time she was actually seeing it. "Can't you see that he seems to have lost all his senses?"Jensen came out holding a bucket of ice-cold water. "What should we do?"Ariana patted Spencer comfortingly on the back. He stopped being so restless and seemed to calm down slightly. Ariana said, "When I get up, toss that ice-cold w
