A Bride’s Revenge No Longer the Backup novel Chapter 10

Chapter 10

Brian glared at Ariana with hatred in his eyes. His voice we cold and he sounded as if he wanted to shred her into pleces,

“Brian! Don’t be like that–you’ve misunderstood Ms. Torry! I was the one who wanted to do it…”

“You’re too kind for your own good, Eve, and that’s why people keep walking all over you. I told you that you didn’t have to see her!”

Ariana watched as Brian continued defending Evelyn. She land of expected it, to be honest. After all, Evelyn would always manage to get hurt every time Brian appeared.

Ariana had already sensed that something was wrong from the moment Evelyn fell to her knees. Still, she didn’t mind playing along to Evelyn’s tune and pushing things in her direction.

Ultimately, she needed to get Brian to hate her. He would then have to call off the engagement whether he liked it

or not.

“Ariana Torrey! I used to think that you were just a two–faced, backstabbing bitch, but I didn’t think you’d be so evil as well! Eve has always had a weak body. If anything happens to her, I’ll make you pay!”

With that, Brian pulled Evelyn away and turned to leave.

Evelyn had had plenty of time to explain all throughout the hullabaloo, but she chose to remain quiet. In fact, she even cast an apologetic look at Ariana from time to time.

Still, Ariana was able to catch the hint of glee in Evelyn’s eyes that nearly went undetected by the others. It was as if Evelyn was gloating in her face.

So what if Brian and Ariana were engaged? Brian was still in love with her anyway.

Seeing that, Ariana bent down to pick up the debit card from the ground and stopped the two from leaving. “Ms. Granger, you left your card behind.”

Evelyn turned around. Brian also saw the debit card in Ariana’s hand. He frowned and asked, “Eve, did you give her money?”

Evelyn bit on her lower lip and said, “I just… I didn’t want you to call off the engagement because of me.”
