Youve been clinging to Mr.
Lodge using nothing but your looks .
But men get bored quickly .
Look at him now .
He doesnt even care about you anymore .
The venom in their words didnt faze Ariana .
Her attention shifted to Victor nearing the bottom of the staircase .
Learning in close to the sneering socialites , she whispered just loud enough for them to hear , Is that so ? Funny , coming from someone who couldnt even sell herself if she cried .
With your stubby legs and awkward proportions , even if you stripped down and danced in front of Brian , he wouldnt even spare y you a glance .
You ! The insult hit its mark .
The socialites eyes widened in fury , and she raised her hand to slap Ariana .
But just as the hand was about to strike , Ariana staggered back deliberately , letting herself fall .
Instead of hitting the ground , she landed in a pair of strong , warm arms that caught her tightly .
Ariana looked up in surprise and found herself face to face with Victor .
His features were flawless , yet his expression was cold and emotionless .
His icy aura radiated an untouchable authority , chilling everyone in the room .
Mr.
Mr.
Smith ! The socialite froze , her face as pale as a sheet .
She instinctively stepped back , realizing that her slap had almost landed on Victor instead of Ariana .
Victor said coldly , Hunter .
Yes , Mr.
Smith .
Hunter stepped forward .
He had a towering figure with an imposing presence .
Without hesitation , he swung his hand across the socialites face .
Her scream echoed through the ballroom and shocked everyone .
The socialite collapsed to the floor , half of her face swollen .
Yet , she didnt dare to utter a single word .
She simply cowered on the ground , trembling .
Everyone in the room knew who Victor was .
His power stretched beyond both legitimate and illegitimate business circles alike .
People knew better not to cross him .
Crossing him meant courting disaster , and a slap was the least of the consequences one might face .
