Lambert suddenly leaned in and whispered in her ear, "Do you know? Vincent is watching us... He looks really angry."
Lambert's voice was deep and carefree as if filled with a hint of wicked amusement. It seemed, he greatly enjoyed this triangular situation.
In Ariana’s view, Lambert enjoyed provoking and messing with Vincent.
And she was more than happy to witness such a scene because she liked watching the helpless Vincent. No matter how angry he is, he does not dare to vent it.
Ariana curled her lips, and took the initiative to reach out and put her hand on Lambert's shoulder, "Seems like I have no choice but to give in.”
They turned around and went to the dance floor. All the women who were infatuated with Lambert watched the two with resentment.
Vincent, who was standing on the side, stared at them gloomily with his fists clenched.
Vincent had already seen Ariana with her mother when was chatting with his parents and elders.
He was amazed to see Ariana in a black dress. As this dinner was hosted by the Stone Family, Vincent was afraid that Lambert might look for Ariana, so he hurried over to find Ariana immediately after finishing the chat with his elders.
He never expected to see this scene.
His friend, Callan Austin, who was watching the situation, could also feel how embarrassed Vincent was.
"Isn't Ariana your fiancée? How did she agree to dance with someone else?"
Vincent was somewhat agitated, grinding his teeth in exasperation without saying a word.
Ariana, while dancing with Lambert, couldn't help but snuck glances at Vincent to see how angry he was.
Lambert inclined his head to look at the visibly distracted Ariana and teased her lightheartedly, "You're dancing with me right now. Is it appropriate to keep looking at another man?"
His hand rested on the sleek and soft back of Ariana, the warmth of his palm made her somewhat uncomfortable. It wasn't something she disliked, on the contrary, it brought on an inexplicably tingling sensation.
Hearing his teasing words, Ariana couldn't help but give him an annoyed look, and said in a low voice, "With so many women wanting to dance with you, why bother about me?"
Lambert's eyes narrowed slightly. As the music neared its end, he held her waist tightly, forcing her to bend down, gracefully spinning them around.
Their elegant and mesmerizing dance steps had garnered the attention of many, but Lambert's sudden move scared Ariana nearly out of her wits. She subconsciously clung to Lambert's arm.
Just as she was about to glare at him, suddenly, Lambert's handsome face moved closer, and before she knew it, he kissed her.
The crowd gasped in surprise. Ariana had not expected Lambert to kiss her in front of such a big crowd, especially while Vincent was watching.
She initially thought of pushing him away, but before she could react, Lambert used his other hand to cradle her head, deepening the kiss.
His scent filled her nostrils, captivating her mind.
Vincent, who was already struggling to hold back upon seeing Ariana dance with Lambert, was so furious now, that he stormed towards them, intending to push Lambert away.
But Lambert was quick to react. Still holding Ariana, he swiftly dodged.
Vincent, half embarrassed and half furious, was about to throw a punch, but was held back by Callan, who loudly reprimanded, "Calm down Vincent! This is the Stone family's banquet!"
In his rage, Vincent froze for a moment, then took a deep breath to suppress his anger.
Gritting his teeth, he glared at Lambert, "Mr. Stone, the lady in your arms is my fiancée. Please let her go?"
