Chapter: 740
“Miss Edwards, how do you see Mr. Jasper Anderson’s engagement? Will you persist in sabotaging
their love affair?”
The questions cut like sharpened blades, aimed to wound and twist the truth.
Ariana attempted to address a few milder inquiries, but the reporters paid little heed to her words. They
persisted, hoping to shape her into a scandalous mistress and fuel the flames of sensationalism.
Ignoring Ariana’s rebuttals, they twisted her words and hurled even more audacious questions.
Aware that reasoning with them was futile, Ariana fought against the throng, desperately trying to break
through.

The reporters acted as elastic bands, relentlessly pushing her back each time she tried to move
forward. Her feet faltered, threatening to send her crashing to the ground.
Instinctively, Ariana shielded her stomach, not trying to make any sudden moves.
As the reporters relentlessly pursued her, anger and frustration welled within Ariana. Yet, she
understood that defying them in this manner wouldn’t provide a solution. As she contemplated a
strategic retreat, a jarring car horn blared.
The crowd turned as one, watching the car hurtling toward them without any intention of stopping!
Fear gripped the people surrounding Ariana, scattering them in a panic.
Pressed against the door, Ariana braced herself. Simultaneously, a flicker of hope ignited within her,
longing for it to be Theodore who swooped in to rescue her.
The car screeched to a halt right before Ariana.
With a surprising twist, Mitchel emerged from the vehicle.
His gaze briefly met Ariana’s as he said, “Get in!”
Without time to think, Ariana swiftly entered the car.
When the door shut, the car seamlessly turned and accelerated away.
Perhaps caught off guard, the reporters failed to give chase in time.
Ensuring no one followed, Ariana finally released a sigh of relief and expressed her gratitude to Mitchel.
“Thank you, Dr. Chadwick. But how did you end up there?”

turning his head.
His explanation sounded far-fetched, but Ariana refrained from prying further. Instead, she conveyed
her concern and apologized, “Earlier…
I hope they didn’t capture any pictures of you. I’m sorry for involving you in this…”
Mitchel appeared unperturbed. “The car windows have one-way privacy glass. They cannot see inside.
Even if they did manage to capture anything, they wouldn’t publish the photos.”
His tone remained calm, neither anxious nor boastful, as if that would be nothing!
Ariana’s surprise heightened as she realized that Mitchel’s background could be far more intricate than
she had originally presumed.
