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

Chapter 404

The guests present all took in the scene before them. It was well known that Brian had always despised Ariana, but this time, he appeared visibly anxious about her in front of everyone.

Ariana seemed unsurprised by the reactions of the guests around them. She withdrew her hand and said, “Thank you for your help, Mr. Lodge.”

Brian quickly realized that Ariana had just used him.

Due to Lodge Co.’s stance toward Torrey Co., many had assumed that there was tension between the Lodges and Torreys. As a result, few corporate partners had been willing to initiate business dealings with the Torreys.

Now that they have seen Brian and Ariana on better terms, many would likely approach the Torrey family.

“Ariana, did you just exploit me?” Brian had never realized just how cunning Ariana could be. He had always assumed she was clueless, but it was clear that he was the foolish one now.

“Didn’t you say it yourself, Mr. Lodge? Mutual exploitation isn’t a bad thing for either of us.” Ariana shrugged nonchalantly.

Brian had used her like this before. This time, it’s just that the tables have turned.

Ariana said, “Don’t think I don’t know what you’re planning, Mr. Lodge. I know I’m the last of my family, but that doesn’t mean it will be easy to take advantage of my inheritance.”

Brian’s expression darkened when he saw that Ariana had misunderstood him. He scoffed, “I’m taking advantage of your inheritance?”
