Rebirth Revenge Is Everything (Ariana) novel Chapter 335

The atmosphere during New Year in a large family differs markedly from an ordinary household. Take the Stone family for example.

Almost everyone from the Stone family would attend the celebration, whether they are part of the main line or the side branch of the family. Thus, the Stone family is particularly busy during the New Year’s season.

Lambert drove very steadily, which Ariana gradually got used to. However, she felt a little sympathetic for his father, who has made a couple of phone calls.

It's noticeable that his father is urging him, so out of no choice, he has to rush them. But he dared not say it directly, fearing that Lambert might drive too fast and cause an accident, especially since Ariana is pregnant. Ariana listened to the gentle inquiries from her father-in-law about where they are from time to time, while helplessly watching the leisurely Lambert next to her, who seemed to be in no hurry at all.

After hanging up the phone again, Ariana can’t help but speak up.

She quietly looked at Lambert and said, "Could you speed up a little? It seems like almost everyone is there.” Today is just a gathering of the main family line. The 29th, 30th and the first day of the New Year are when all members of the Stone family gather.

Lambert essentially maintained his composure. He responded lightly, "What's the rush?"

Ariana said, "...I'm not in a rush, but afraid your father might get frenzied with anger."

Upon hearing this, Lambert can't help but curl his lips into a smile, saying, "Let him be anxious then. These few days we have both been at the Stone's, we haven't had much quality time together. Now we have this rare bit of time, do you really want to waste it?" Finishing his sentence, he gave Ariana a wink.

Seeing this, Ariana was laughing and crying at the same time, unable to suppress her amusement.

She silently offered a prayer for her own father-in-law, empathetically thinking that having a son like Lambert, he must have done something wrong in a previous life...

Sigh.

She just hoped that her baby wouldn't turn out to be as crafty as his father. If that were to happen, she wouldn't know who could outsmart who among the father-son duo. At this thought, Ariana curled her lips into a smirk.

This smile was caught by Lambert, who had just turned his head. He raised his eyebrows, apparently unsure what had amused Ariana. He thought that his words had made her laugh, and so, he also involuntarily grinned. This was the most relaxed moment of Lambert's day.

Almost every time when he was alone with Ariana, he felt at his most relaxed.

And that's why he wanted to accompany her alone all the time.

Unfortunately, there were always such inexplicable interruptions. If it wasn't Stefan, it was his beloved mother. The former was bearable, but the latter, he truly was helpless against.

He can't just tell his mother not to pester Ariana, right?

Sigh...

Ariana, with her sharp ears, heard Lambert's sigh, her ears twitched slightly. But she didn't say anything. She could guess what Lambert was thinking without even asking, and she was not willing to satisfy his hope by asking him. However, Lambert, not getting the attention of his wife, felt even more like sighing.

This caused a smile to twitch at the corners of Ariana's eyes.

Anyway, back to the story.

Only, it seemed his injuries were severe, his walk a noticeable limp.

Lambert watched with a furrowed brow.

With icy inquiry he asked, "Who is he?"

The security guards hastily responded, "We also don't know who this is. This kid claimed that his father is Eldest Sir... But Sir said he only has Sir Arnold as a son, so this kid might be a swindler." Their answer came quickly, as if they feared a slow response would earn Lambert's reprimand.

Their eyes held faint disdain as they spoke of the boy.

From that look, it was likely they knew the boy was supposedly Mr. Stone's illegitimate son. However, whether he was or not meant little. The boy had been here more than once, initially, they were nervous, wondering if the rumors were true, so they reported it, only to get scolded by Mr. Stone.

So now they held a grudge against the boy.

Whether or not he was truly Mr. Stone's illegitimate son, just by his current appearance they could tell he was not treated well. They had seen too many forbidden children from affluent families.

So, for this young man, they held disdain on their faces. Especially after the reprimand they received due to him.

They harbored even more resentment towards him.

In the past, when this young man came, they had only shoved him away, but today, they almost threw the boy out completely. Although they didn't really throw him, it was almost the same thing. However, they never expected that they might accidentally toss him onto the Sir Lambert's car. Thankfully, they were spared from a major incident by a stroke of good luck.
