Ariana thought of Arnold's angry expression and found it somewhat amusing.
"By the way, the matter of that piece of land... "
She had barely started when Lambert's deep eyes slightly hardened, interrupting her, "There's no rush; let's eat and talk."
Ariana responded, "That's good; I'm already hungry."
She forgot that Arnold was narrow-minded and Lambert's position in the company was lower than his. He might've secretly planted a listening device there.
Meanwhile, as soon as Arnold returned to his office, he took out a listening device but ironically heard nothing.
Only then did he realize that Lambert and Ariana had long since left the company, and in his anger, he kicked his office desk.
Upon entering the seaside restaurant, Ariana noticed they were the only ones there, with just two servers moving chairs for them. She frowned, "What is this...?"
Lambert elegantly sat down, grinning as he said, "Candlelit dinner!"
She frowned at him, "Why?"
This was too strange, right? Totally out of the blue.
Lambert just smiled, without uttering a word, hinting to the wait staff that they should prepare to serve the food.
Ariana didn't believe Lambert would randomly prepare all of this. When the waiter put a stack of documents in front of Ariana, she was stunned momentarily.
"What is this?"
Lambert replied, "The contract for that plot of land."
Ariana only then realized - Lambert was hiding so deeply that even if Arnold searched the entire city, he would not be able to find the mysterious person who outbid him.
However, what Ariana did not expect was for Lambert to be able to calculate everything in advance, and even choose herself.
She couldn't help laughing: "No wonder Arnold was so frustrated. It turns out it was because you manipulated him and he had nowhere to vent his anger."
He smirked and said: "When you told him that the contract was in your hands, did you ever think about the danger you might find yourself in later?"
Just now, Ariana was so high-profile in front of Arnold, stating she held the decision-making power of the contract. She undoubtedly made herself a target.
"Danger?" Lambert’s words left her somewhat puzzled. "Are you talking about Arnold?"
Lambert said: "Arnold is petty and cunning, by offending him today, in the future..."
She didn’t care. She took out the contracts, reviewed them, and said: "So what? Don’t I still have you?"
After Ariana finished reading, when she was about to sign, she paused and said, "But in this case... doesn’t that mean you’re basically giving me this property for free now? Or... do you have some other schemes?"
She frowned at Lambert, obviously skeptical of such good things.
After all, this was originally funded by Lambert. If she got it for free, it would be one thing, but now the Stone family would also cooperate and focus on developing this land, then she would gain a lot without lifting a finger.
Such a large piece of meat, Ariana didn't believe Lambert would give it to her just like that. But she couldn't figure it out.
Lambert smiled and said: "Ms. White always seems to forget that she is a married woman!"
A married woman…
