Looking at Nicole’s overly dramatic expression, I thought to myself, "Man, she’s such a dumbass."
"Eliana, if you could say sorry to Nicole, we could forget all about this and still be friends," Ariel played the peacemaker, acting all sincere
But the bomble thing that happened to Nicole can’t be settled by an apology, even if I had done it. Ariel was only saying that because she didn’t experience it herself
And besides, doesn’t she know who the real culprit behind Nicole’s troubles is?
Nick, on the other hand, was staring at without a trace of guilt. He’s one cold hearted guy. He did this to his own girlfriend, just to break up with her, and he’s trying to pin all the bla on Nicole so she can’t pester him anymore
Sadly, Nicole is too smitten with him, thinking that Nick is good to her and that she’s the one in the wrong
"Ariel, are you serious?" I coolly adjusted my hair and clothes, and asked Ariel calmly.
"Eliana, you’re the one who needs to apologize. What does this have to do with ?" Ariel seed confused by my question. She grabbed Nicole’s hand, "Nicole is my best friend, I certainly don’t want her to be bullied.."
Nicole looked at Ariel with gratitude.
Just then, Ariel’s eyes lit up as she spotted soone in the distance. She looked ecstatic, "Damon, over here!"
I was taken aback when I saw Damon, as we were just video chatting
Well, it’s Valentine’s Day. It makes sense for Ariel to want to hang out with him
Damon walked through the crowd and his gaze lingered on for a bit before moving away
Ariel, always quick on the uptake, rushed over to link arms with Damon, resting her head on his arm in a show of possession.
Damon’s arm twitched as if he wanted to pull away, but I shot him a glance, which made him frown, clearly displeased.
"Damon, you’re here too?" Nick seed surprised to see Damon, then his gaze shifted to Ariel
Sothing felt off.
"Today’s Valentine’s Day. Of course, he should be spending it with , but..." Ariel trailed off, then looked at , "There was a little unpleasant incident. Eliana and Nicole had a fight"
"What happened?" Damon asked indifferently.
"Damon, you be the judge. At Jones’s engagent party, your ex wife Eliana drugged , and I made a complete fool of myself. Wasn’t it her fault? Shouldn’t she pay for it?! " Nicole asked anxiously.
Now that Damon is back with Ariel, Nicole naturally thought Damon would take her side.
"But Nicole, don’t get worked up. There’s right and wrong in every situation. If Eliana really did sothing wrong, we’ll definitely get you justice!" Ariel blurted out.
I almost burst out laughing. They were laying the bla on behind my back, with no intention of giving a chance to explain.
Just as Nicole started to charge at again, I shook off her hand and glared at Ariel, "Ariel, I’ll give you a minute to explain. If you continue to instigate Nicole, you’ll regret it."
Ariel was taken aback, then after a few seconds of thinking, she laughed awkwardly, seeming even more cautious than before, "Eliana. I don’t need to explain anything if you didn’t do it, I would definitely tell Nicole to leave you alone."
Nick was sharper. He seed to sense sothing wrong in my words and stepped forward to grab Nicole’s hand, "Let’s go clear this up outside. We shouldn’t involve others."
Nicole, who had wanted a private chat with Nick, naturally wouldn’t refuse
Seeing the two of them leave, Ariel seed a little unhappy. She was probably upset that she couldn’t continue to pick on .
"Nicole"" I suddenly called out to her
Despite the noise in the bar, she heard and stopped
Ariel perked up, almost as if she was itching for to provoke Nicole.
Damon raised on eyebrow, clearly puzzled by my action
"What now? Are you going to apologize?" Nicole sneered, "You’ll have to kneel and beg for forgiveness. Otherwise, I’ll sue you!"
"I’m afraid you don’t have any evidence. How about I give you so?" I said, my eyes sparkling with amusent.
A puzzled look crossed Nicole’s face. She asked, "What are you saying?"
I pulled out my phone, ready to call Aaron. He could vouch for
Seeing this. Nick abruptly tried to stop . "Ms Brooks, this is between and Nicole. It has nothing to do with you. We need so privacy now"
Nick’s attitude only confird that he was on guard against
"Nick, if Eliana has sothing to say let her say it" Ariel chid in. She spoke to Nick’s with apparent sincerity
Nick shot Ariel a look, but they seed to be out of sync
"Eliana, if you feel wronged, present your evidence" Ariel walked over, oozing confidence.
Damon stood behind her, his gaze fixed on
He was silently asking what I was up to
Ariel was certain that i had no evidence, which is why she was so adamant about hashing it out here and now Perhaps she even wanted to embarrass in front of Damon
I avoided eye contact with Damon to avoid suspicion
"I’II make a call and let him explain, " I said, ready to continue the ga since Ariel wouldn’t back down!
Nicole looked at , puzzled, but this ti she didn’t say much, Nick on the other hand, looked quite concerned
I dialed Aaron’s number and he answered straight away, "Hello?"
"Aaron, Clara’s drunk and passed out. Can you co and look after her?"
"I’m already at the door, be right there" I didn’t expect Aaron to be so quick on his feet Right after I hung up the call, and there he was, tall figure in the crowd. He seed a bit antsy, like he wasn’t having the best day
I gestured at him and he saw , imdiately made his way through the crowd towards
Ariel didn’t recognize Aaron, looked a bit puzzled
But Nick, he looked like he rembered sothing, his face changed instantly
"Clara’s over there, you should get her settled," I pointed in Clara’s direction, "Aaron, if you’re not going to give her your whole heart, then please make it clear to her. Don’t make her suffer"
