All Chapters of A Bride’s Revenge: No Longer the Backup: Chapter 261 - Chapter 270

After all, Gleaston was Brian's territory. Most people who came here would show him respect.Emily didn't believe a young woman from overseas would dare refuse an invitation from Brian.Brian simply replied coldly, "She's not worth it.""Yes, Mr. Lodge."As they were leaving, Brian said to Emily, "Keep an eye on Ariana. Don't let her run around.""Yes."Meanwhile, Ariana looked out the window from her room. She saw that Brian had already placed people around the apartment.The Lodge family's bodyguards were easy to recognize with their matching uniforms. They were taking turns stationed at the entrance. Was Brian trying to control her movements?Ariana frowned. Wasn't he going too far? They had already broken up, but he still acted like he owned her.Ariana was upset, but there was nothing she could do. He held all the power in this city, and even the smallest move from him could make everyone tremble.She must have been out of her mind in her previous life, thinking she coul

Hearing what Brian said, Fiona immediately stood up and explained anxiously, "Mr. Lodge, it's not like that. My aunt isn't that kind of person. It was my idea to repay you. It has nothing to do with her."Her eyes looked sincere.Belinda saw that Brian had frightened Fiona. She took Fiona by her side and said, "Alright, alright. Why be so harsh? I think Fiona has a good personality. I like her. I'll keep her here to take care of me. Since Ariana has already moved out, I'm coming back to live here. If you don't want Fiona looking after you, then let her look after me. It's still a way of repaying you."Everything Belinda said showed how fond she was of Fiona.Fiona seized the opportunity before Brian could speak. "Mrs. Lodge Senior, if you don't mind, I'd be happy to take care of you.""Great. I'll keep you here."Belinda patted the back of Fiona's hand.Since Belinda had already made things clear, Brian couldn't very well say otherwise.As Brian was about to go upstairs, Fiona

"What about Brian? He's not coming, right?"Ariana looked wary at the mention of Brian.Emily said, "Mr. Lodge said he won't be coming to accompany you for checkups anymore.""That's good."Ariana let out a quiet sigh of relief."That's good?"Emily was stunned. Did Ariana really hate seeing Brian that much? She used to be so different.Noticing Emily's strange expression, Ariana explained, "He's a busy person, so he shouldn't waste time on me. Shall we go?"She was eager to start her rehab. The exam was in nine days. If her right hand couldn't hold a pen, she'd have to write with her left hand.Emily still thought it was odd but didn't ask any more questions. They headed downstairs together.City Hospital had everything ready early that morning. All the professional equipment was in place, along with an expert team from overseas.As soon as Ariana arrived, she was taken to the consultation room.There were many people inside, but Ariana noticed the most handsome one. He lo

Emily hesitated. Should she tell Brian or not?"But this exam is really important to me. Can I write with my left hand?" Ariana asked. "I've heard doctors are skilled with their hands and can use both. Could you teach me some techniques?""You really want to learn?""I do!"Ariana looked at Simon earnestly.Simon said, "It's basically about habit. Your left hand is fine, so you can try writing with it. But nine days isn't enough. It'll be tough.""I'm not afraid of hardship. I have to graduate."A diploma from Glea College was like a key to a new world. In this circle, a high level of education meant a lot. Glea College, in particular, held special significance in this social circle.Maybe prominent families like the Lodge family didn't care, but the Torrey family was on the verge of collapse. If she couldn't even get that diploma, how could she possibly take over the company?"Alright, I'll teach you," Simon said with a smile, silently adding another charge to bill Victor lat

Victor was upstairs. This shabby building had no elevator at all.Ariana was still badly injured, so she could only climb the stairs at a snail's pace with Simon's support.By the time they reached the study, Ariana was already sweating."Is Victor doing this on purpose? If he wants to talk, can't he do it in the living room?"Simon sighed and said, "He's not that kind of person. He... might just want to give you a hard time."Hunter was walking ahead, listening to their conversation. His eyelid twitched slightly.When they reached the door, Hunter opened it for them.Victor sat at a table and told them to take a seat.Ariana glanced around the study. It was nothing like most people's studies. There was no desk or office chair, just a couch and a small table.A few days ago, when Victor came to Gleaston, he had been staying at the Gleaston Grand Hotel. Now it looked like he had bought this place and planned to settle down in Gleaston."What are you staring at?" Victor glanced
