Rebirth Revenge Is Everything (Ariana) novel Chapter 138

138 /630

A playful smirk flashed across Lambert's face. Although it was fleeting, Ariana was positive she saw it.

"Of course," Lambert replied, then turned and entered the bathroom.

An odd sensation welled up within her, and only then did the taste in her mouth start to permeate. It was somewhat strange.

Looking suspiciously at the clean little bowl, she reached out to open the stone pot nearby. Through the steam, she saw a green shell filled to the brim in the pot.

A nauseous feeling caused Ariana's face to contort.

No wonder he had that strange smile earlier, she thought, that bastard Lambert must have known what was in the pot.

When Lambert emerged from the bathroom, he was met with her icy stare. A smile tugged at the corner of his lips as he commented, "Finished your drink so soon?"

Ariana paused at the sight of him.

His bathrobe hung loosely on him, revealing his smooth muscular chest as a clear sign of regular exercise. He looked incredibly attractive.

Images of the previous night flashed in her mind, and she could feel a wave of inexplicable irritability spreading within her. However, what she felt most at this moment was an unplaceable nausea.

She gritted her teeth and retorted, "I had a supplement soup and now I’m too excited to sleep."

"Really?"

Lambert raised an eyebrow, seemingly unfazed by the accusation that he was the instigator.

Ariana was seething in anger, but she knew it was pointless to argue with Lambert over this matter. As her thoughts drifted elsewhere, she couldn’t help but mention,

"The handsome man I met at the club earlier was really nice, he didn't talk much but was so considerate, nothing like certain individuals I know."

"Oh? I didn't expect you to still think about Stefan at this time," Lambert's words carried a bit of surprise, but his tone was rather calm, concealing the emotion in his words.

"It's not that I have him in mind, but it's hard to forget a man like him once you've seen him. He's quite special," Ariana reflected on Stefan as she spoke.

Lambert's eyes slightly narrowed as he realized Ariana's intention. Leaning in slightly towards her, he said, "No matter how special he is, you can only take a look. After all...I am your husband."

Ariana was shocked by the handsome face that suddenly appeared in front of her. The warm breath and deep voice made her shiver slightly, creating an odd feeling.

She instinctively retreated a little, but her sight was drawn to the scene before her. The loosely fitting pajamas revealed his robust chest as he bent towards Ariana.

Slightly dazed, Ariana mentally scolded herself for being flustered and then pushed Lambert away.

"I'm going to bed," her words had hardly settled when hurried footsteps carried her to the bed, and she jumped onto it.

Lambert raised an eyebrow. He didn't miss the woman's facial expression, so his mood was quite good and he didn't pester Ariana anymore.

The night passed without much conversation, and soon it was the next day.

Allison was jolted awake early in the morning by Ariana's persistent phone calls. She wanted to remind Allison about the Savory Cuts Restaurant.

Initially wanting to get angry, Allison changed her attitude upon hearing Ariana's reminder not to miss the opening hours of the Savory Cuts Restaurant because the food was so delicious that if she went late, there would be no seats left.

Allison quickly changed her attitude, saying what a lucky thing it was to have such a good friend as Ariana.

After some chit-chat, Allison tidied up briefly and hurried out.

When she arrived at the restaurant and mentioned Ariana's name, the waiter led her to a pre-reserved spot.
