“Understood, Mr. Kingsman,” Anna replied.
With that, William turhed and left the classroom.
Everyone looked at Evelyn with pity, but they had no idea how much she hated that particular look.
“Evelyn...”
Lila wanted to comfort her but Evelyn left the classroom with tears in her eyes.
That evening, Ariana slowly got out of bed, walking with a slight limp.
A maid opened the door and was so startled to see Ariana on her feet that she almost dropped the bowl in her
hand. “Ms. Torrey! Mr. Lodge said you need to stay in bed for a few days to recover. You shouldn't be walking
around on your own!”

The maid hurried over to steady Ariana, but Ariana didn’t seem too concerned. “I've been lying down for a whole
day. If | keep this up, I'll end up crippled.”
“But Mr. Lodge said...”
“He isn’t even here right now, so who cares what he says?”
Before Ariana could finish, Brian's cold voice rang out from the doorway. “Oh? I'm standing right here. Do you
still not care?”
Ariana frowned. Wasn't he supposed to be busy with that land deal in South Gleaston? Why was he back so
soon? Brian stepped forward, about to walk into her room.
Ariana reacted immediately, pointing her crutch at him. “Stop right there!”
He stopped in his tracks.
She said, “We agreed I'm here just to recover. You're a grown man. Why are you barging into my room for no
reason? Get out!”
Brian let out a cold laugh and stepped inside, ignoring her protest. “Ariana, this is my house. I'll cin
whenever | want. | don’t need your permission.”
With that, he seized the crutch from her hand. She didn’t have the strength to stop him, so the crutch fell easily
into his grip.
“You!”
Before she could finish, Brian stepped closer and put an arm around her waist, lifting her off her feet.
The sudden move took her by surprise. She glowered at him and snapped, “Brian, putdown!”
“Are you sure?”
He signaled for her to look at where she was. If he let go now, Ariana would definitely tumble down the stairs
from the second floor.
“I mean putdown safely, not tossdown the stairs!”
She felt disgusted every the touched her.

Brian ignored her complaints and said indifferently, “I'll let you go once | carry you downstairs. You're heavy, and
this is a chore for me.”
“You're callingheavy?”
Ariana felt a surge of annoyance. Did he even realize the words that cout of his mouth?
Fine, let him carry her if he insisted. She could always take a bath afterward to wash away the discomfort.
Just then, the doorbell rang. The maid ran off to answer it. As soon as she opened the door, she was stunned.”
Madam?”
Standing outside was none other than Belinda. She had rushed over from her new place upon hearing Ariana
was back.
The moment Belinda cin, she saw Brian carrying Ariana down the stairs.
