Chapter 123
Ariana saw Brian pressing closer and instantly lifted her foot, aiming it at his crotch.
Brian let out a pained sound. Ariana took the chance to shove him away and immediately put some distance between them.
Brian snapped out of it, his face darkened. “Ariana, you hit me again?”
“Yes, I sure did!”
Ariana’s expression was cold. “Brian, do you not understand plain speech? I already said I’m tired of being with you, yet you still push yourself on me. Why bother?”
Brian’s face looked even more unpleasant.
Ariana added, “Besides, if you hadn’t threatened me with my family, I wouldn’t have stayed here wasting my time. Let me make this clear. I don’t like you! So, don’t come bug me for no reason!”
“Ariana, you’d better watch yourself!”
Brian seemed ready to step forward and teach her a lesson, but he was still sore below, and she looked like she wouldn’t be easy to handle.
In the end, he said with a stony face, “You claim I threatened you with your family? Fine. I’ll do just that. Starting now, you will obey my orders, or I’ll make your family suffer.”
With that, Brian turned and left her room.
Ariana frowned.
What on earth was he trying to do in the middle of the night?
She assumed Evelyn must have upset him, so he came to vent his anger on her.
Early the next morning, Ariana didn’t bother recalling Brian’s threat from the night before. She headed straight to college.
When Brian got up, he noticed there was no breakfast made by Ariana. He swallowed his anger and asked, “Who made breakfast today?”
Francine stepped forward. “I did, sir. Is something wrong with it? 1 can change…”
“Where is Ariana?”
“Ms. Torrey… She left early. She said she was going to class”
Hearing this, Brian’s expression darkened.
Belinda had repeatedly warned Ariana not to go to class, but Ariana completely ignored her.
Did she really have so little regard for the Lodge family?
Just then, Emily walked in. Seeing Brian’s stormy mood, she hesitated before saying, “Mr. Lodge, there’s a meeting this morning…”
“Go get some people and bring Ariana back here from Glea College!”
“Again?” Emily was stunned. They had already gone to Glee College multiple times in the past few days.
