Rebirth Revenge Is Everything (Ariana) novel Chapter 208

At this moment, a piano melody abruptly began to play.

Beverly paused briefly, a surge of excitement prompting her to pick up her phone. She had set this particular ringtone specifically for Lambert.

As soon as she answered, she was surprised to hear Ariana's voice.

Ariana mocked, "Answering so soon? Aren't you excited?"

"It's you!"

Upon hearing Ariana's voice, Beverly's initial excitement instantly faded.

"Why? Can't it be me?" Ariana spoke leisurely and disdainfully.

Beverly scoffed, "Ha, I don't think I have anything to discuss with you!"

At this point, she hated Ariana with a passion. How could she possibly want to take Ariana's call? Just as she was about to end the call, she heard Ariana say, "You're coupled with Griffin now. Why are you still so concerned about Lambert?"

"What's it to you?" Beverly stuttered before biting her teeth in guilt.

Ariana continued, "Indeed, it's none of my business. Who you like is your problem. I'm only calling to let you know that I intend to give as good as I receive."

Having had enough rest these past few days, Ariana had kept tabs on the reporters and Beverly. Noticing Beverly's frequent covert actions of late, she'd decided to give her a call and play some mind games.

Beverly hesitated, then scoffed, "Ha, are you threatening me?"

"A threat? No, I am merely asserting my rightful defense!" Ariana responded coldly.

In the past, Ariana often couldn’t be bothered dealing with Beverly. Lately, however, Ariana was finding the woman increasingly annoying. She was running out of patience fast to tolerate her.

"You..."

Beverly was furious yet slightly apprehensive. Ariana's sudden phone call was just too bizarre. Could she have discovered her strategy?

As Beverly was still somewhat irritated, Ariana had already decisively hung up the phone.

Beside her, Lambert raised an eyebrow at her, "What do you plan to do?"

Ariana lightly smirked, "I want to deal with these issues completely."

She has had enough. This time there must be a result - a perfect solution or an escalation of the problems!

Ariana had arranged to meet Griffin but invited Lambert as well.

Griffin felt a little guilty for causing Ariana's injury last time, so he was overjoyed when he received her call.

However, when he met them at the restaurant and saw Lambert was also there, his face showed slight discomfort.

"What's this..."

Ariana smiled, "I believe we need to have a serious talk! That's why I asked to meet you."

Griffin's voice turned slightly cold, "What do you want to talk about?"

He didn’t really want to see Lambert now, especially as he was with Ariana. It was a sight for sore eyes.

Ariana said seriously, "I want to explain all the issues and doubts, once and for all."

She paused, reached out, and held Lambert's hand, "Griffin, in the beginning, he and I were indeed connected through a contract marriage, but in the end, it was all a sham…"

But the information he received now is completely different from what he imagined!

Ariana, having said so much, concluded, "I've said all I wanted to say. It's up to you now!"

She then walked away, hand in hand with Lambert. Upon seeing her departure, Griffin wanted to say something but couldn't speak.

Griffin was hesitant, he was truly unable to reject Beverly outright.

Each time he saw Beverly act jealous towards Ariana, he couldn't help but relate to himself. Ever since he returned to the country and saw Ariana again, he felt his emotions were ready to overflow.

He couldn’t bear to see Ariana in such a difficult situation, even doing things she didn't want to do to protect the White family.

Upon leaving the restaurant, the silent Lambert smirked and said, "After all you said, do you think he listened?"

Ariana was silent for a while, then replied helplessly, "I don't know."

She felt Griffin was still wavering. He was too kind-hearted. As long as Beverly played the victim, he might soften.

Even when it came to someone like Finley who had only helped him once, he respected Finley.

Because Griffin was this kind of person, Ariana couldn’t bring herself to be hard on him. But, if he still couldn't understand her difficulty this time, then she would have no choice but to make a decision.

After much deliberation, Griffin still wanted to clear things up with Beverly.

He arrived at the Lawrence residence. Because of the recent news about him and Beverly, the Lawrence family's servants recognized Griffin. Coupled with Beverly's fearsomeness, they allowed Griffin to enter without notifying her.

Just as he entered the Lawrence residence, he heard Beverly complaining bitterly to her mother about a call she got from Ariana that morning.
