Rebirth Revenge Is Everything (Ariana) novel Chapter 325

Ariana had already expected that the old man might have a different attitude from before during this meeting.

After all, he had learned about Lambert's background.

Wasn‘t the prejudice he had against Lambert and herself because Lambert was not a biological child of the Stone family? Now that he knew, he would stop being so frosty.

However, what she didn’t expect was the old man's attitude wasn't just good. It was incredibly warm-hearted.

The enthusiastic Ariana was so befuddled that she wondered if this person was an imposter.

Lambert predicted this scenario, hence his nonchalant and unsurprised expression. Although his expression could be deemed inappropriate, Ariana knew the reason behind it so she lightly reminded Lambert to respect the old man in public and left the rest as it was.

After all, had it not been for the revelation of Lambert's background, the old man would have never treated them this way.

To put it differently, the old man's current kindness towards Lambert was rooted in the fact that he carried the Stone family's blood.

Thus, Ariana had no sympathy for the old man who was being treated coldly by Lambert.

The old man was far too harsh in the past.

So, she did not state any opinions.

Hugh seemed a bit worried that Lambert's attitude could upset the old man, so he stepped in to mediate and said, "Dad, Lambert hasn't been feeling well recently, he might leave early."

The old man's expression instantly changed.

He looked at Lambert with a frown, his eyes full of concern, saying, "What's wrong? Why aren't you feeling well? If you feel unwell later, let Ariana take you to rest in the bedroom in the side hall."

The faces of Lambert's Uncles and Aunts were completely frozen.

They stared incredulously at the old man and Lambert, seemingly believing that their eyes were deceiving them.

This was their first time witnessing such an attitude of the old man toward the younger generation.

This was simply too unbelievable.

Yet, Jolene was very delighted. Seeing the old man finally treating Lambert nicely, her worries finally evaporated. In Jolene's view, Lambert would receive more protection only if the old man liked him. In this way, she, as his mother, could finally rest assured.

Even if the old lady had been indifferent to her these days, it did not matter anymore.

Ariana honestly found the old man's attitude a little unsettling as well. The corner of her mouth twitched involuntarily.

Fortunately, the old man did not waste all his time on them. After giving these instructions, he casually asked about the situation of the company Lambert was managing. Upon hearing the reply, he immediately revealed his contented eyes. He then left them to have fun on their own.

As for Ariana: "....."

Lambert was still indifferent to the old man's attitude and simply nodded, and left.

Ariana got a plate and randomly selected a few desserts. As she ate, she whispered to Lambert, "Isn't the old man a little too nice to you?"

Seeing that more and more people were starting to converse with Lambert, the corner of Ariana's mouth twitched. Yet, she knew this was a good opportunity for Lambert to network, so after exchanging a few words with these people, she turned towards Lambert and said: "Lambert, I saw Stefan and Allison over there. I'm going to go see them."

Lambert nodded and gently said, "Yes, go ahead. I'll join you in a bit."

Ariana smiled at his response.

Seeing this, those standing nearby jokingly commented, "Everyone says that Mr. Stone has a good relationship with his wife, and seeing them together today, it's indeed the case. It's really something others can't help but envy."

Lambert smiled faintly, saying, "Well, you could also get married soon if you're envious, CEO Winston."

The man named CEO Winston scowled at him, saying, "Enough already; don't call me CEO Winston. Just use my name. It's not the same for you and me. You've set up a company of your own, while I just hung a name on my family business. I'm no CEO. Just call me by name."

Meanwhile, Ariana had already walked a long way.

She quickly found Allison.

After all, the pregnant Allison was an extremely conspicuous target. It was impossible not to notice her.

Ariana couldn't help but laugh. She walked up to Stefan, who was carefully guarding Allison, saying, "Seriously, CEO Morris, you brought Allison to attend the banquet when she's this far along in her pregnancy. Were you serious when you decided this?"

When Stefan saw Ariana, he couldn't be bothered with formalities and said exasperatedly, "You think I didn't want her to stay at home?"

Allison, like a little hamster nibbling on food at this moment, responded irritably when she heard this. "Are you blaming me?"
