Rebirth Revenge Is Everything (Ariana) novel Chapter 6

6 /629

"It's just a small trinket, you think it was given by a girl?" Vincent tried to play it cool and dismissive. His composed demeanor was flawless, making it impossible to raise any questions.

If she hadn't experienced his deceitfulness, Ariana might have naively believed his words and let this incident slide.

But now,

Ariana did not want to let this deceiving couple off easily. Lowering her eyelids, her tone was icy, "How would I know if it was given to you by a girl or not? You value it so much to keep it safe in your pocket, I want it."

Vincent's heart tightened. He didn't expect the usually understanding Ariana to be so stubborn now. His eyes narrowed slightly, and his inferiority complex of being dependent on others became stronger. But all he could do was force a smile, "Ariana, your jealousy is rendering me rather wronged."

"Are you giving it to me? If you don't, it shows you have something to hide." Ariana locked her deep, discerning gaze onto Vincent.

He was in a bind.

Even though he was unwilling, Vincent had no way to deal with Ariana's wilfulness. Swallowing his retort, he had no choice but to hand the item from his pocket to her, feigning indifference: "Fine, since you want it, I'll give it to you. It's not particularly valuable though. If you like this kind of necklace, I can have someone bring you a better one tomorrow."

He sounded so accommodating like he would get her the stars from the sky if she wanted, no matter the cost.

"Who said I liked it?" Ariana casually toyed with the pendant as she accepted it. She had seen this pendant in her previous life but had dismissed it, allowing herself to be led around by the two of them like a fool.

This pendant was a reminder of how foolish she had been!

"This thing looks really cheap." Ariana suddenly curled her lips, intentionally waving the pendant at Jane, "Jane, don't you agree? I wonder who chose this cheap thing to be worn around my fiancé’s neck."
