In the end, marriage itself is not easy to maintain.
Since Ariana chose Lambert, even if it's hard, it's her choice. As long as she's happy, that's enough!
Griffin wanted to say something, but Gilbert said, "Mr. Meadows, the White family assets may not be comparable to the Meadows family, but it's enough for them to live worry-free! So, please rest assured."
Even though they talked politely, Griffin felt like Gilbert and Georgia were forcefully expelling him. He bitterly smiled in his heart. Could he really not even be friends anymore?
As he was about to leave the White's house with a sense of loss, he suddenly saw Ariana and Lambert walking towards him with loads of bags from not far away.
Griffin's heart tightened, and he subconsciously hid behind a hedge.
But just as he hid, he regretted. He came today to find Ariana. Why did he hide?
Now that Ariana was close, wouldn't Ariana and Lambert see him clearly if he walked out? How would he explain then?
When Griffin was conflicted, Ariana and Lambert's conversation drifted from a distance.
Ariana sighed, "Not only Vincent and Arnold, but I also feel that Griffin seems to be related to Finley!"
"What's so unbelievable? Finley, that kind of person, is extremely good at maneuvering. It's not surprising that he would contact Griffin." Lambert replied coldly.
"It's not about Finley. I'm referring to Griffin. I didn't expect him to be used by Finley so easily. It's a bit disappointing." Ariana said.
Her words made Griffin’s heart miss a beat.
In the matter with Finley, initially, Griffin just wanted to deal with Lambert. And that thing didn't have any impact, he didn't expect Ariana to develop a prejudice against him due to this.
"Isn't this exactly what we wanted?" Lambert said indifferently.
Ariana frowned, "Huh?"
She had been upset about this for quite a while.
"Now that you have recognized him, don’t keep any contact with him in the future to avoid rumors." Ariana started to dislike Griffin, which is great news for Lambert.
Ariana pouted, "I think you are just happy to see my misfortune."
"I am happy to see your misfortune!" Lambert wraps his arm around Ariana's waist, pulling her into his embrace, "You're my wife, just keep me in your heart."
"Tch." Ariana blushed and spat but didn’t struggle out of his grip.
Lambert smirked, holding Ariana as they both returned home.
After Ariana and Lambert entered the house, Griffin came out from behind the hedge.
His face was so gloomy that it looked almost black, and he returned to his car without making a noise and left.
Just as he had driven down the street, Griffin's phone rang.
He picked it up and saw an unfamiliar number. The earlier incident had upset him, and now he was getting a nuisance call. He angrily hit reject and threw the phone aside.
But not much later, his phone rang again, it was the same number.
Even scam calls aren't generally this persistent, right?
Griffin barely controlled his emotions and answered the call, "Hello."
"Hello, are you Griffin?" A woman spoke on the other end.
"Yes, what can I do for you?" Griffin vowed that if the words that came up next were about scamming, pyramid schemes, or sales, he would absolutely curse at them.
Griffin's eyes were beautiful and looked incredibly profound at this moment, it was hard to tell what he was thinking. He looked at Beverly and slowly extended his hand.
