Rebirth Revenge Is Everything (Ariana) novel Chapter 197

After Lambert and Ariana left the Stone family, they went to Lambert's previous apartment.

When she walked into this apartment again, recalling the first time she shared a bed with Lambert, her cheeks turned slightly red.

Back then, she didn't think much of it. Only now did she realize that Lambert must have been teasing her!

Lambert saw Ariana standing in a daze at the doorway. He smirked, "Remembering something?"

Ariana felt her face turn slightly red at having been seen through. She suddenly remembered the conversation she heard outside the conference room. She paused briefly then said, "I didn't mean to eavesdrop on your conversation. I just wanted to know, do you regret going this far for me?"

Even Lambert, no matter how capable he was, would be in a difficult position if he decided to break away from the Stone family and the old man tried to complicate things.

Lambert arched an eyebrow. "Do you want a divorce?"

"Um..." Ariana hesitated for a moment, "No..."

He smirked, pulling her into his arms. "Then do I have any other choice?"

The old man had touched his bottom line repeatedly. He had done enough for the Stone family.

A faint tremor ran through Ariana’s heart. She took hold of his face and said jokingly, "I can't believe you like me this much!"

Lambert's eyes shook slightly as if something was sprouting.

Suddenly, he swept her into his arms, startling her so she instinctively wrapped her arms around his neck.

"Ah!"

She glared at him annoyedly, "What are you doing?"

Lambert smirked, saying, "We're a man and a woman alone together, what do you think we could do? Of course, something that one would only do with someone they like!"

Ariana quickly replied, "Wait…"

Why was this man always in such a rush?

He patiently looked at her, "Wait for what?"

Ariana blushed as she responded, "I…I'm all sweaty now…"

"Sweaty?" Lambert smirked ambiguously, "Then let's sweat together!"

…

The next day...

Ariana woke up in a daze and realized Lambert was snugly holding her close.

She paused momentarily and looked at the man presumably still in deep sleep.

Frankly, she did find Lambert quite attractive, but oftentimes, he was just too exasperating.

Just as Ariana was lost thoughts, looking at Lambert, he suddenly opened his eyes. His gaze was clear, full of mischief, clearly, he had been awake for a while.

Caught off guard, Ariana regained her composure and retracted her gaze. She got out of bed, saying, "I should get up now, I have class today!"

Lambert, with his arm still around her, not only didn't let go but held her tighter and said calmly:

"Class is it? You feel up to going to class today?"

She was a bit annoyed at his words and glared at him. It was because of him that she had no strength!

"Let go of me, I have a full schedule of classes today!"

Lambert raised an eyebrow, "A full schedule? I remember you only have one class today."

Upon hearing that her father was fine, Ariana breathed a sigh of relief.

But the thought that she was so useless, letting her father faint from overwork and end up in the hospital, made her feel extremely guilty.

Once Georgia knew her husband was fine, she was relieved, but seeing her daughter's guilty face, she quickly consoled, "Don't blame yourself too much, after all, you are married now, and when your father gets busy nobody can stop him."

"Mom, I just didn't expect Dad to work so hard!"

She always thought about how to strengthen the White family and protect her parents.

But she didn't expect her father to work so hard for the company. In the end, there were very few people who could truly help the White family.

"Ah, everyone has their own fate!"

After Georgia finished speaking, she paused and thought of how far the Stone Family's house was from the hospital, she asked with some confusion, "Wait a moment, you are supposed to be at the Stone Family's house this early in the morning, how did you get here so quickly?"

Ariana hesitated momentarily, then said, "Actually, we've already moved out of there."

She asked bewilderingly, "What happened?"

She explained the whole incident to her mother. Upon hearing it, Georgia was so furious that her face turned ghastly pale, "This is downright outrageous!"

"Isn't every daughter the jewel of her family's heart? How come when it's their family, she ends up being a sacrificial pawn for the Stone Group?"

"Their Stone Group might be valuable, but isn't our White family's heir valuable as well?"

What gave her some comfort was the fact that Lambert was willing to give up his family business for Ariana. At this moment, she felt even more pleased with this young man.

"Mom..." Ariana was too worried about Gilbert to be angry with the Stone family.

"If you are so worried, why not stay at White's residence for the time being?"
