Chapter 11
Glenda’s hands instinctively covered her ears before she let out an irate cry. “So what? After raising you for so many years, | am entitled to them. | deserve these! The only way you can have them is if your mother comes back to life and asks for them!”
“Don't you dare bring up my mother again!” Ariana hissed, feeling the anger bubbling inside her. Without thinking, she yanked the earring from Glenda’s right ear.
A deafening scream of agony pierced the air as blood gushed from the wound. Glenda clutched her ear, staring at Ariana in disbelief. “How dare you!” she yelled, her eyes filled with rage.
As Brielle launched toward Ariana with the intent to slap her, Ariana deftly evaded the attack but was immediately caught by Glenda from the other side.
Brielle seized the moment to push Ariana to the floor, grasping her hair.
With a furious voice, Brielle shouted, “Ariana, you bitch!” She raised her hand to strike Ariana but was interrupted by a low, cold voice that resounded throughout the room.
“Hey! What is going on here? What are you doing to my wife?” All eyes darted toward the door, where Theodore had just arrived.
He was adorned in clean, comfortable, light- colored clothing, and sitting in a wheelchair with a soft blanket on his lap. Despite being seated, he had an air of power and nobility that commanded the room.
He shot lasers at Brielle.
“What did my wife do to deserve you pulling her hair?” he demanded.NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.
Brielle, who had been feeling self-important, was caught off guard and began to stutter. “I... | didn’t pull her hair.” Theodore wasted no time and barked, “Horace!”
Instantly, his assistant, who had been standing silently behind him, sprang into action and grabbed Brielle’s arm.
“Ah! It hurts!” Brielle screamed in terror as Horace dragged her away from Ariana, but she couldn’t free herself from his grip. Horace only released her when they were a safe distance away from Ariana.
Brielle quickly scurried behind Glenda, cowering in fear
Theodore rolled his wheelchair toward Ariana, his eyes reflecting concern. “Are you okay?” he asked, his touch sending shivers down Ariana’s spine.
She couldn’t understand why the same man who so coldly dismissed her yesterday was now being so gentle and kind.
Ariana tried to pull her hand away from Theodore, but he held it tightly, not letting go.
“It's okay,” he said. “I know I’m late. But | can’t move fast in a wheelchair. Don’t be mad at me, okay?”
Confused, Ariana stared at Theodore.
Meanwhile, Glenda saw an opportunity to save herself and quickly went to Theodore, apologizing profusely.
“It was all a misunderstanding. Brielle was just playing with Ariana. She’s Jasper’s fiancee, and Ariana’s younger sister.”
As Glenda’s words hung in the air, a tense silence filled the room.
