Ariel’s face turned ugly, her lip clenched, unable to utter a word.
Once again, I looked at the vanity table, the leftover high end skincare products and perfus, most of their lids were off
Wherever Ariel touched, it felt like it’s been contaminated by so disgusting virus
I chucked all the skincare products and perfus into the bin, and let the servants deal with it in front of everyone.
"Eliana, don’t be so harsh, Ariel was just trying them out, she’s never used them before, it’s normal for her to be curious!" Cooper couldn’t stand it.
Damon kept his silence, just giving a deep and inscrutable look, observing my every move.
"I’m sorry, Eliana "Ariel’s eyes were red like a rabbit’s
"Ariel, you don’t need to apologize, it’s my fault for bringing you guys here"
Cooper coldly said, "Damon, aren’t you going to say anything? Aren’t you and Eliana divorced?"
Ariel looked at Damon expectantly, hoping he would speak up for her.
Damon obviously saw the slap mark on Ariel’s cheek, a slap that I put most of my strength into:
"Why can’t she live here?" Damon finally spoke and it made my heart go cold.
"Are you short on houses? You know I decorated this place with care, it’s my five years of effort and emotion. You actually let Ariel move in and trample on my efforts, really?" I took a deep breath,struggling to control the pain and anger in my heart.
"If you’ve already let go of , you should also let go of the past emotions, we should always look forward." Damon coldly looked at , speaking lightly.
The man who used to cling to seed to have sobered up these days, his attitude towards had changed significantly
Ariel, seeing Damon on her side, imdiately perked up. "Yeah, Eliana, we should always look forward. There’s no point in clinging on."
Was I the one clinging on or was she? Ariel’s counterattack was fierce.
I felt calm watching Damon protect Ariel, sothing I had a hunch about. I just lost the interest to fight with them anymore
I took out my phone and opened the news from tonight, questioning Damon, "Did you do this?"
Seeing the content, Damon’s face imdiately turned ugly, his sharp gaze turned to Ariel.
From his eyes, I already knew who was doing it. Ariel looked at Damon innocently, "Mr. Coleman, what’s going on?"
"Nothing" Damon answered flatly
"It was Ariel who posted it, wasn’t it?" I felt extrely desolate, after ten years, and a rebirth, I still didn’t see Damon clearly
Damon said, "She must have accidentally used my phone to send it, I’ll have soone take care of it. It won’t bother your life anymore."
I wasn’t even allowed to touch his phone before, but now Ariel could play with it freely
Even Ariel could browse his gallery to find those photos, then register a stranger’s account to sar .
I might be crazy to think that Damon had feelings for a while ago.
"Are you sure it was unintentional?" I stared into Damon’s eyes
"Yes, I’m sure." Damon paused, then replied.
Ariel began to defend herself unjustly, "Eliana, you’ve misunderstood , I really never thought of hurting you, I don’t know why you..."
I couldn’t stand it anymore and raised my hand to slap her again.
What an actress!
Damon grabbed my raised hand, his strength so great that I couldn’t resist, he looked at coldly. "Eliana, you’re the one who doesn’t want to turn back, and you’re the one who’s disturbing and Ariel now, enough is enough!"
Seeing this, Ariel had a hint of joy in her eyes.
But she still pretended to be concerned and tried to comfort , "Eliana, I know I’m just a substitute, he told about Catherine. I know my place, so I wouldn’t do such things, I don’t have the right."
"Get lost!" I was livid. In my past life I lost to Ariel terribly, in this life she still wanted to act in front of , I broke free from Damon’s hand and pushed Ariel away.
Ariel nearly fell, but Damon swiftly caught her. She took the opportunity to throw herself into Damon’s arms and started crying.
Seeing his daughter being bullied, Dean couldn’t stand it and rushed over to push as well.
His strength was far less than mine, I was almost pushed out of the room, falling in the hallway
"Eliana" Damon’s face changed, he let go of Ariel and ca over, trying to help up.
My body wasn’t in much pain, but my heart was almost suffocating
I harshly shook off Damon’s hand, tears uncontrollably welled up in my eyes.
When I stood up, I found everyone surrounding , all kinds of eyes were on , a few servants in the living room downstairs were also looking up, wanting to know what happened.
I took out the property division agreent from my bag and said to Damon, ’Do you think these things are enough to compensate ?"
"If you think it’s not enough, I can add more" Damon’s eyes were no longer cold, he was a bit nervous and worried.
Hearing his words, Ariel’s face changed slightly
She didn’t even want to see get half of Damon’s property, as if I was taking her money, if he added more, wouldn’t she be heartbroken?
I smirked, then forcefully tore the agreent into pieces and threw it on the ground.
At that mont, Ariel’s mouth corner noticeably lifted, a flash of uncontainable joy passed by.
She might think that I didn’t want these properties anymore, so they would all be hers in the future, all the benefits would ultimately be hers.
"Eliana"" Suddenly there was Luna’s anxious voice from downstairs, Sofia and Clara were also there, Mitch was supporting Luna, they all rushed upstairs.
When Luna and others ca up, I imdiately had a backup, they glared at Damon and Ariel’s people, looking like they wanted to fight.
Cooper looked totally lost, staring at Mitch who was standing on my side. "Mitch, are you love-blind or sothing? Are you too lovey-dovey to tell right from wrong? Don’t you rember how Eliana treated Ariel?"
Mitch glanced at , then replied without hesitation, "Damon, Cooper, this ti I’m siding with Eliana. Ariel is just playing the innocent. I see through her now."
"What are you talking about?" Cooper was clearly flabbergasted.
"Mitch, those things I said in the hospital room, they were just slip of the tongue. I didn’t an them. I was under the weather and in a bad mood, so..." Ariel knew what Mitch must have heard, and tried to make a weak explanation.
I whipped out my phone, opened a pre-edited audio file, and asked sarcastically, "Well, can you explain this? Are these also slips of your tongue?"
Ariel was stunned. "What’s that?"
"You’ll know once it’s played, won’t you?" I smirked and lightly hit the play button. Ariel’s familiar voice imdiately filled the room from my phone.
