Selena spoke loud enough for Brian to overlear. Looking sullen, he recalled having said the same about Ariana back when she had been following him around.

When Selena saw Brian, she boldly said to him, "Mr. Lodge, Ari is trying to attend her classes. What are you doing, looking for her on campus? Are you her guardian or what?!

Ariana frowned, looking displeased about Brian. "Mr. Lodge, it's not right to follow me around. Don't you have anything better to do? All you do is find trouble with me. Do you know you're a nuisance?" These words sounded familiar to him. His expression darkened further.

Ariana still remembered her past life vividly.

Back then, she would deliver lunches to Brian, but he would keep his distance, leaving her trailing behind in her high heels. Exhausted and struggling to keep up, she would face his cold disdain.

"Ariana, you're shameless for following me around. Don't you have anything better to do? All you ever do

is cause trouble for me. Do you realize how much inconvenience you're creating for others?"

Back then, she would meekly endure his reprimands.

Afterward, she started leaving the lunchbox at the reception desk, stealing only a distant glance at him before fleeing in embarrassment.

Thinking back on how she had humiliated herself, Ariana found it laughable.

would've thought that her dynamic with Brian had flipped completely in just a few days after her rebirth? "Ariana Torrey, you know why I'm here!" Brian demanded, trying to regain control.

Feigning confusion, Ariana replied, "How would I know why you're here? You're making such a fuss while others are trying to attend class. Brian, you can't do what you like just because you're an investor in the college!"

"Exactly! I heard a lot of students complaining how they couldn't even focus on their lessons," Selena chimed in at the perfect moment to fuel the tension.

Brian swallowed his anger and said to Ariana, "I told you to make breakfast for me this morning. Where were you?

"Brian, you have a housekeeper at home, and you're not paying me a salary. On what grounds are you demanding ! cook for you?" Ariana replied calmly. "Besides, I'm a student. I have classes to attend. Surely, Brian, you're aware of that, right? Yet you still ask where I've been."

"Is that so?" Brian's voice turned icy as if he'd caught her in a lie. "Were you really at school, or were you booking a hotel room with Victor?"

At the mention of those words, even Selena looked taken aback.

"Getting a hotel room?"

Selena shot Ariana a sidelong glance, her expression amused, thinking, "Really? Did she actually do that? What an absolute legend!"

Ariana frowned and asked, "Brian, you need to have evidence before throwing around these accusations. Who told you I was getting a hotel room with Victor?"

"The Gleaston Grand Hotel has records of you and Victor checking in together. Are you seriously telling me you

didn't?" Brian shot back.

"My ID was stolen several days ago. Brian, you're welcome to verify that. Are you here to interrogate me based on some rumors? Did you even bother to investigate, or did you catch us in the act?"

Her tone was laced with frustration and disdain.

"I..." Brian was momentarily speechless.

He hadn't verified the information, nor had he caught them red-handed.

But Fiona had claimed to have seen it with her own eyes, and the check-in record at the Gleaston Grand Hotel seemed too damning to ignore.
