All Chapters of A Bride’s Revenge: No Longer the Backup: Chapter 131 - Chapter 140

"Who saw it? I'd like to meet with them," said Victor, looking both intrigued and slightly murderous.Be it abroad or in Gleaston, most people were scared of Victor.Brian knew very well that, even if he asked Fiona to come over, Fiona wouldn't dare accuse Ariana and Victor of having a one-night stand at the hotel.Meanwhile, Emily approached Brian from the side. "Mr. Lodge, we've looked around but couldn't find Ms. Torrey anywhere.""Keep looking until you find her," Brian instructed coldly. "The hotel is not even that big. She must be hiding somewhere.""Will do." Emily immediately increased the manpower in the search for Ariana.Victor, looking uninterested in the manhunt, said, "Mr. Lodge, take your time. I'll leave now."With that, Victor swiped the card and entered his room. At the same time, Ariana had slid out of the Gleaston Grand Hotel when no one was watching, wearing a cap as a disguise.Once again, Brian called her, but she hung up upon seeing the caller ID. Pickin

"It's fine. You were just telling the truth, weren't you?" Chuckling, Ariana stated, "I never said I was mad at you.""Ari, how could you not be mad?" Selena was fuming. Even an outsider like her could tell that Fiona was up to no good. How could Ariana be blind to it?Ariana said to Fiona, "Too bad you have a simple mind. If Brian suspects that I'm cheating on him with Mr. Smith and calls off the engagement in a fit of rage, do you think you'll still enjoy his backing, as a student who only got admitted because he pulled some strings for you?"The piteous expression on Fiona's face turned into one of shock.Ariana stated, "Brian pulled strings and got you admitted to Glea College for my sake. If he calls off our engagement, he has no reason to care for you."A scowl formed on Fiona's face. Ariana went on, "Students in Glea College are from high society. The girls here have high standards when it comes to making friends."You're nothing but a distant relative of the Torrey family

Selena spoke loud enough for Brian to overhear. Looking sullen, he recalled having said the same about Ariana back when she had been following him around.When Selena saw Brian, she boldly said to him, "Mr. Lodge, Ari is trying to attend her classes. What are you doing, looking for her on campus? Are you her guardian or what?"Ariana frowned, looking displeased about Brian. "Mr. Lodge, it's not right to follow me around. Don't you have anything better to do? All you do is find trouble with me. Do you know you're a nuisance?"These words sounded familiar to him. His expression darkened further.Ariana still remembered her past life vividly. Back then, she would deliver lunches to Brian, but he would keep his distance, leaving her trailing behind in her high heels. Exhausted and struggling to keep up, she would face his cold disdain."Ariana, you're shameless for following me around. Don't you have anything better to do? All you ever do is cause trouble for me. Do you realize how

Gwen spoke as if everything she said was perfectly reasonable.Ariana recalled her past life. Around the same time, Gwen had thrown a birthday party for Igor. She had leveraged her position as the future in-law of the Lodge family to book another high-end hotel. That event had ended in utter embarrassment, further deepening Brian's disdain for Ariana.In her previous life, Gwen didn't dare overstep her bounds since Brian had no affection for Ariana. However, with Ariana already living in the Lodge residence in this life, Gwen became increasingly brazen, assuming that Ariana had secured her position."Ms. Lambert," Ariana said coolly, "I think we didn't even celebrate my birthday last year. Weren't you the one who told Dad that a young woman should keep a low profile instead of parading herself in public? Am I right?"Gwen remained shameless as ever, even after Ariana dredged up the past. "Guys and girls are not the same. Besides, you've already taken over the company. "What abo

"Yes."Gwen gave Jonathan a once-over, her gaze sharp as she realized he was only an assistant manager. She said, "Didn't I request to reserve seats in the event hall? Is everything ready? I want to inspect the venue."Hearing this, Jonathan offered an apologetic smile and replied, "Mrs. Torrey, I'm really sorry, but the event hall is currently fully booked, and it may not be possible to make arrangements for you.""Fully booked?" Gwen frowned, her tone sharp. "How is that possible? When I called earlier, your receptionist said there were still seats available."Jonathan smiled awkwardly and explained, "There were seats earlier, but... A gentleman has since reserved all our halls. So..."But Gwen wasn't willing to let it go. Her face darkened as she retorted, "Mr. Rhys, do you take me for a fool? There are only a handful of well-known figures in this city, and I haven't heard of anyone hosting a large event. Besides, this isn't exactly an affordable venue for most. How much did th
