Chapter 286
“You tricked me into drinking! Dad said girls shouldn’t drink too much! You’re definitely not a good person!” Ariana sobbed.
Victor rubbed his temples. He admitted that telling her to drink alcohol to help her sleep was a complete failure. In the end, Victor agreed with her accusations. “Fine, I’m not a good person. What are you going to do about it?” Ariana sniffled. “You… You have to apologize to me.”
Victor fell silent.
“And no forcing me onto your side! I’m not going to die that quickly!” Ariana continued.
Victor quietly watched as Ariana rambled
Seeing her cry even harder, he eventually gave in. “Alright, ‘m sorry.”
“You’re not being sincere!” Ariana accused.
“What would make it sincere?” Victor sighed.
“Write a contract! You have to promise never to bully me, Ariana Torrey, or drag me into your stupid schemes!” Ariana huffed.
“Should I add some compensation while I’m at it?” Victor asked sarcastically.
“Yes!” Ariana nodded.
“You’re not even drunk, are you?” Victor stood up, clearly done with Ariana’s tantrum.
Just as he turned to leave, Ariana suddenly got up and shouted, “Don’t go!”
She screamed. Her footing was unsteady, and she stumbled forward. She tried to grab Victor’s sleeve but he was too far, and she couldn’t reach him.
At the same time, Victor turned back instinctively and caught Ariana, pulling her into his arms.
“Had enough?” Victor sighed again.
“…Yes,” Ariana muttered softly.
Victor’s scent, laced with tobacco, enveloped her. She tried to push him away, but her hands were too weak to
resist.
“If you’re done fooling around, go back to bed,” Victor grunted.
“…To be honest, I can’t stand up anymore.” Ariana’s legs ached terribly, and she hadn’t brought her crutch when she came over. Walking back on her own seemed impossible.
“You want me to carry you back?” Victor was exasperated.
“I wouldn’t say no… Wait!” Ariana suddenly shrieked.
Before she could finish, Victor slung her over his shoulder.
The sudden action startled Ariana, sobering her un “Victor Put me down! I can walk on my own!”
No matter how much she protested, Victor ignored her.

With his height, Ariana felt like her entire body was flipped upside down. Her stomach churned, and a burning
sensation rose within her.
Finally, Victor dumped her onto the bed.
