"Is this how rich people live?" Fiona thought.

Seeing that Fiona still hadn't told him where Ariana was, Bran grew impatient. "Where is Ariana?" Noticing Brian's expression, Fiona immediately said, "L... I tell you, Mr. Lodge. Just don't be angry." "Go on."

"I just saw Ariana leave with Victor."

Fiona embellished her story further. "Honestly, Ariana's behavior at college was so inappropriate. How could she have been flirting with Mr. Smith like that? So many people saw them, and now everyone's talking. I just wanted to spare you the embarrassment by telling you privately. Please don't be mad at her. She's just a bit thoughtless sometimes. But she really does care about you."

Hearing this, Brian's face darkened.

Cared about him? If she really cared, how could she have walked off with Victor like that? She even flirted with Victor in public?

Just picturing it ignited his anger.

Did Ariana even understand her position?

Fiona noticed Brian's grim expression and knew she'd achieved her goal.

She said, "Mr. Lodge... I'm only saying these things so you two can clear up any misunderstanding.

Please don't be upset. Maybe Mr. Smith really does have some business with her."

Victor came to Glea College just to see Ariana. It was obvious he had an interest in her.

Brian's expression darkened further.

Victor had arrived in Gleaston a few days ago and barely interacted with anyone. Yet he had deliberately come here just to find Ariana, making it clear how much she meant to him.

Brian said coldly, "You can get out of the car now."

Before Fiona could say more, Emily had already opened the back door.

Fiona bit her lip and had no choice but to step out.

Once Emily got back in, she glanced in the rearview mirror at Brian's tense face and couldn't help asking, "Mr. Lodge, what should we do now?"

A trace of icy anger flickered in Brian's eyes. "Have people check all the hotels. I want to know exactly where Ariana went with Victor."

Meanwhile, Ariana and Victor were at the Gleaston Grand Hotel.

Ariana watched as Victor took her ID card from her and handed it to the front desk.

She was so exasperated she almost laughed out loud. "You drag me over here early in the morning just to get a room? Mr. Smith, are you kidding?"

"It's just for registration. We're not doing anything else.'

Victor spoke in a flat tone. "It's easier to talk here without being noticed."

But this was definitely going to give people the wrong idea,

Ariana took a breath. Once she got her ID back, she tucked it into her purse.

"Mr. Smith, you're something else. You don't follow the law abroad, but here you are, making sure to

register at a hotel," she quipped, making no secret of her sarcasm

She still couldn't figure out why a man as rich and powerful as Victor, who also held extensive influence, would be so captivated by Evelyn.

Sensing Ariana's gaze on him, Victor suddenly stopped walking.

Ariana's breath caught.

What was that about? Did he have eyes in the back of his head?
