A Bride’s Revenge: No Longer The Back Up by Cozy Season

Chapter 141

“Got it.” William glanced at the payment notification on his phone and quickly messaged Ariana. “It’s done.”

Ariana smiled at William’s message. This time, Gwen would surely get what she deserved.

That very day, the Torrey family had booked the largest hall at the Royal Hotel, and Gwen wasted no time spreading the word over the phone.

Though reluctant to pay, Gwen smilled during her calls because she could flaunt her status. It was as if she was afraid others wouldn’t know about the grand venue she had secured.

That afternoon, Ariana decided to head back to the Torrey residence after school.

When she entered, she heard Gwen on the phone, inviting the ladies from her social circle to the banquet. “Mrs. Lindt, my son’s birthday banquet is at the Royal Hotel, and I’ve booked the largest banquet hall. You absolutely must come!”

Ariana listened to Gwen’s phone conversation quietly with a mocking glint in her eyes.

Gwen might be over the moon now. But Ariana would have the last laugh during the birthday banquet.

Gwen soon noticed Ariana’s return. She quickly ended her call and turned to her, annoyed. “Why are you back here?

“This is my home. Am I not allowed to come back?” Ariana entered the house.

Gwen frowned. “Brian had all your things moved out. Did he even know you’d be coming back here?”

“What’s the matter? Are you hoping I’ll stay at Brian’s place instead?” Ariana scoffed.

“Of course! A woman eventually gets married and leaves home. Since you’re already engaged, there’s no harm in staying there. You need to hold onto Mr. Lodge if you want a secure future. After all, the Torrey family needs a strong backer like him.” Gwen followed Ariana into the living room, her tone a mix of false care and condescension.
