Rebirth Revenge Is Everything (Ariana) novel Chapter 307

307 /658

Under the cold and eerie night sky, countless people, engulfed by the biting cold, wrap their bodies tightly. Besides the cars that never stop running in this city, hardly any pedestrians can be spotted along either side of the street.

Because it is just too cold.

During winter nights, darkness always comes early, it’s not just this, the nights are particularly chilly.

Unlike the summers, winter nights often induce a slight sense of fatigue and drowsiness. Therefore, besides the always booming bars and clubs, most people barely step outside their homes at night. This, of course, includes those working overtime.

It's about 10 p.m. now.

Most offices are already off-duty and deserted unless urgent documents require overtime.

At this time, Ariana is on the top floor of Lamari Group, processing documents on behalf of Lambert.

But if one looked closely, one could see that Ariana's expression was somewhat different from usual. She appeared slightly dazed and restless, seemingly waiting for something, her eyes had been glued to her phone.

Many days had passed since the court adjourned.

Lambert was supposed to be back after 1-2 days of paperwork post-court. But for some reason, he has still not returned.

Therefore, Ariana has gradually become restless and impatient from waiting at home.

She even got too lazy to stay at home.

She decided to wait for Lambert at the office.

Lambert would call her if he returned home and didn't see her. So instead of waiting at home in vain, Ariana thought it'd be to process some documents at the office. Allison was heavily pregnant now, and Stefan had been busy at the office due to unavoidable circumstances regarding Lambert, leaving Allison behind.

Now that all matters seemed settled, Ariana naturally didn't feel it was right to let Stefan keep watching the company.

She decided to take care of the office work so Stefan could take care of Allison without worrying about the office.

Even though the projects run by the Lamari Group and White Group were different, they were, after all, large corporations, hence, the nature of the documents were quite alike. Ariana did not find it too difficult to cope with. Back then, Stefan almost burst into tears when he heard what she said, leaving Ariana rather helpless.

Yet, in the midst of her helplessness, a slight sprinkle of solitude and desolation emerged in her heart.

She... missed him.

And so, time passed bit by bit. Ariana started to look less frequently at her phone. She started feeling drowsy after handling most paperwork around one or two o'clock.

Caught up in her fatigue, she did not notice that the office door was silently pushed open at this point.

Lambert, dressed in casual attire, walked into the room slowly. He had wasted nearly a month in detention, but there were no signs of exhaustion on Lambert. On the contrary, his aura had deepened, becoming more profound and elusive during this month. If the first impression of Lambert was his overwhelming presence in the past, now it was like a child trapped in an abyss, his eyes deep and inscrutable.

Lambert obviously knew Ariana was in the company.
