Rebirth Revenge Is Everything (Ariana) novel Chapter 164

He gently said, "I was nearby when you talked to Mrs. Xerxes just now."

"Oh?"

Ariana was momentarily dazed. She hadn't paid much attention and could only say helplessly, "It seems I've made a fool of myself in front of you again."

Griffin laughed, "How could that be? However, I was indeed surprised. I never thought the gentle-natured Ariana would also have such a sharp-tongued side."

"Madam!"

At this point, Conan came over with the prepared car and said, "The Vice President has something for you. He wants you to hurry over now."

Ariana was taken aback, not expecting that Lambert would suddenly look for her, it was somewhat unexpected.

Seeing this, Griffin said to her, "In that case, I'll take my leave."

"Okay!" She nodded slightly.

After Griffin had left, Ariana couldn't help but ask, "Did he say what it was about?"

Conan shook his head and said, "Sorry, he just had Assistant Hills convey this message."

Ariana was a bit confused about what he wanted to do, but she got in the car without much suspicion.

Before long, the car stopped at the front of the Harmony Hotel. The corner of Ariana's mouth twitched slightly, "Didn't you say that Lambert wanted to see me? Why did you take me to a hotel?"

"The Vice President is waiting for you in room 1001 of the hotel," Conan said indifferently.

What? Does Lambert want to take her out to a hotel room? Ariana held her forehead, feeling a headache, but she still left the car and entered the hotel.

Standing in front of room 1001, Ariana felt something was odd. Just as she was about to turn around and leave, the door suddenly opened.

"Why didn't you knock?" Lambert appeared in front of Ariana in a white suit. His handsome face made her breath hitch for a moment.

However, Ariana quickly regained her composure. She was still angry about what happened yesterday.

"What do you want with me?" she asked impatiently.

Lambert smiled and said, "Why don't you come in first?"

Ariana furrowed her brow, but she stepped inside.

Lambert took Ariana's hand and led her to the living room. The room was filled with red roses. In the center of it all was a dining table surrounded by roses and adorned with white candles. To Ariana's surprise, the dishes on the table were all her favorites.

"Surprise!" Lambert suddenly hugged Ariana around the waist and drew her into his arms.

Ariana was stunned by what she saw. She never expected Lambert would call her here just for a candlelit dinner.

"No! This is a fright!" Ariana broke free from Lambert's embrace.

"What's wrong? Don't you like it?" Lambert whispered into her ear.

Ariana just laughed. "No, since you've prepared it, let's have dinner."

With that, she sat down and started to eat.

Seeing this, Lambert sat across from her. However, no matter how he looked at her, she did not seem happy.

The previous incident was still bothering Ariana. She didn't like Lambert's actions. If he didn't like Beverly, he should cut ties cleanly and decisively; if he did, then she could naturally compromise. Why was he wasting effort trying to please her?

Her heart was gloomy while eating her meal, and it tasted as bland as wax because she had no appetite.

The staff members on duty quickly realized something was wrong and rushed to their aid.

While Ariana only sustained minor injuries, the situation was different for Lambert.

It wasn't until they were in the ambulance that Ariana noticed Lambert's consciousness began to fade, his voice trembling with urgency.

"Lambert, are you okay?"

The nearby doctors and nurses busily worked to stop Lambert's bleeding. As she watched the crimson blood flow, her mind went blank.

Once they arrived at the hospital, Lambert was immediately taken to the emergency treatment room. Ariana felt weak and nervous, waiting anxiously outside for half an hour.

Each time she thought about the sight of blood gushing from his wound, she felt a wave of guilt. If she hadn't been so scared at the time and hadn't pushed Lambert away, he wouldn't have gotten hurt while trying to protect her.

When a doctor finally came out, she rushed forward, and asked, "How is he doing?"

The doctor replied, "The patient is stable for now. He lost quite a bit of blood, but his life is no longer in danger."

Only then did Ariana breathe a sigh of relief. She hurriedly asked, "When will he wake up?"

The doctor reassured her, "As long as there are no complications, he should wake up soon. Please, try to relax."

When Lambert was moved to the VIP ward later on, Ariana looked at the man lying in bed asleep, feeling helpless.

Despite the injuries on his refined face, they did nothing to mar his handsomeness.

At that moment, Ariana's phone suddenly rang. She saw it was Jolene calling and felt a jolt of tension.

With Lambert in his current state, she found it difficult to explain the situation to his mother.
