All Chapters of A Bride’s Revenge: No Longer the Backup: Chapter 351 - Chapter 360

"The last time I threw you onto the bed, did your waist…" Victor started."No! Absolutely not!" Ariana's eyes widened dramatically.Was Victor being serious? Did he actually think about putting medicine on her waist too?Victor frowned at Ariana's resistance. He didn't understand what she was trying to express.For Victor, applying medicine was just that. Gender wasn't part of the equation.But clearly, Ariana didn't share the same sentiment.It may be medicine, but men and women should still keep their distance."Mr. Smith, Dr. Finch just called and asked if we needed some vegetables since tonight's meal might have a lot of meat." Hunter popped in."No need, just follow Ms. Torrey's menu." Victor hummed."Understood." Hunter nodded.Ariana remembered Simon saying Victor wasn't fond of meaty dishes like her. She thought back to Victor's minimalist hotel setup and how he always ate bland meals at home.She couldn't help but ask, "Mr. Smith, do you have some kind of masochisti

Ariana glanced down at the apron Victor had tied around her waist, dazed.By the time she snapped out of it, Victor had already moved aside and resumed chopping vegetables.Outside, Hunter and Simon acted as if they had seen nothing and headed into the living room to chat.Ariana couldn't help but steal a few more glances at Victor who was focused on cutting the vegetables with precision.His side profile was flawless. Though he usually kept a serious and distant demeanor, he looked dedicated when cooking.No, not just in the kitchen. Whenever he did anything, he was always focused and meticulous.It was just… He gave off an unapproachable aura when he wasn't working."Are you done staring at me?" Victor's sudden remark snapped Ariana out of her thoughts.She cleared her throat. "I was checking if there was something on your face."Victor didn't respond, which gave Ariana the perfect opportunity. She reached out and patted his cheek. It was just a brief touch, but Victor was s

Ariana continued eating leisurely.Eventually, Victor withdrew his gaze. "The result came back empty."Ariana sighed in relief. She knew it. Victor was just trying to mess with her.Simon laughed awkwardly. "It's not funny at all. Victor just loves telling lame jokes. Don't take it to heart, Ms. Torrey.""Of course not, I don't mind." Ariana set down her spoon. "But it's getting late. I should be heading back."Simon quickly stood up. "Already? You don't want to stay a little longer?""No, I have an exam tomorrow. I'd like to go home and rest. Thank you for the ointment, Dr. Finch. I'll leave now." Ariana put on her coat. She was about to leave when Victor also set down his spoon. "I'll take you home.""There's no need." Ariana shook her head."Are you planning to walk home?" Victor cocked a brow.Ariana hadn't driven here. She wouldn't even be able to find the exit without Victor leading the way."… I'll leave it to you, Mr. Smith." Ariana hummed.Since he had brought her

Because Ariana had just unbuckled her seatbelt, she nearly slammed her head against the dashboard from the sudden acceleration."I'd suggest you buckle up unless you want a concussion." Victor huffed."You!" Ariana fastened her seatbelt without hesitation.The police hadn't expected him to break through their blockade.As soon as Victor sped onto the main road, more patrol cars swarmed in, encircling him again. The sudden roadblock caused a massive traffic jam.This was the busiest area of the city center. If things escalated, the incident would be all over the news the next day.Seeing the flashing lights and blaring horns, Ariana knew she was doomed. She regretted ever getting involved with Victor.Car horns blared as frustrated drivers honked at Victor's car, demanding he move. Meanwhile, officers were preparing to force open the car door.Ariana was nervous. She could only hope this wouldn't turn into a major media spectacle.Meanwhile, at Lodge Co.."What did you say?" B

Ariana was still shaken from everything that had happened. Brian blocked her as she reached her apartment and was about to unlock the door.The hallway was empty, and his sudden appearance startled her. "What are you doing here?""You caused such a huge mess today, and you still have the nerve to ask me that?" Brian caged her against the wall. Ariana had no way of breaking free. She gave up and said indifferently, "I wasn't the one who caused the mess. And besides, it didn't affect your company in any way. Let's not forget that you and I are no longer engaged. Even if my reputation is in shambles, it has nothing to do with you."Her nonchalant attitude only made Brian angrier. "I've told you many times to stay away from Victor and that you shouldn't mess with him. Did you even listen to a word I said?"Ariana couldn't understand why Brian was so furious. To her, he was the one she should avoid at all costs, even more than Victor. "Mr. Lodge, we should keep our distance. My busine
