Brian fell silent. He really had no idea about the flyers on the bulletin board. He had assumed she was just abusing her status as his fiancée to bully others.

He said, "I didn't know you were being slandered, but is that my fault? You could've just explained it to me!"

Ld unish Evelyn for my sake."

"And if I had, would you have believed me? I'm not so naive as to think you'd punish Evelyn for She'd learned her lesson in her previous life. There was no way she could ever be on equal footing with Evelyn in his eyes.

"In any case, I'm not backing down. If you think I'm petty or mean, that's on you. I won't let anyone walk all over me. If you're that upset about it, you could just call off the engagement. No matter how insistent your grandmother might be, if you call it off, we can go our separate ways. I promise you'll never have to see me again." Brian had almost begun feeling guilty, but the moment he heard what she said, his face darkened again. "Call off the engagement?"

"Yes, call it off," Ariana said. "I know you want the Torrey family's connections and resources. That's fine, I can still introduce them to you. But there's no need for us to get married. I'm aware you never wanted to marry me.

She remembered how in her previous life she introduced all the Torrey family's connections and resources to Brian. He spent three years taking over Torrey Co. entirely.

Igor and Gwen ran Torrey Co. into the ground. When they ended up deeply in debt, Gwen took the money and fled with her son and John.

At that point, Brian took over all of Torrey Co.'s technical staff to strengthen Lodge Co.

When everything was settled, Ariana was no longer of any use to him. He had no intention of marrying

her. Instead, he chose Evelyn and left Ariana to endure her pain alone.

Now Ariana had it all figured out. Sacrificing some resources wasn't a problem, as long as it let her sever ties with Brian. She wanted nothing more to do with him.

"You really don't want to marry me?" Brian asked.

***That's right." Ariana gave a firm nod. "I don't want to marry you at all."

Brian's face turned grim. "If you don't want to marry me, then why is your house full of my pictures and things?"

Hearing Brian bring this up, Ariana deliberately said, "I just wanted to know you better, Don't you know I'm materialistic? Back then, I planned to gain something from you. So, of course, I had to gather some information and learn your preferences. Now that I have Victor and William to rely on, I don't need to deal with you anymore." "So. It really is about William," Brian said coldly. "Did you think you could come and go at the Lodge family as you please? Did you think I'd let you toy with me? Ariana, don't you think you're being far too bold?"

Before Ariana could respond, Brian suddenly pinned her onto the bed. He said in a low voice, "All you want is money, right? You don't have to look for William. I have plenty of money.
