Chapter 204 Ms.
Torrey , please enjoy .
Victor gestured at the dishes before them .
Staring at the T bone steak with blood seeping out of the meat , Arlana lost her appetite .
Mr.
Smith , Im not hungry .
Technically , she would never eat dinner .
Apart from the few times she had to attend social events , she usually did not take dinner .
Victor sat from across her and placed his slender fingers on the table .
He gently swirled the contents in the wine glass , saying , Do you know what happened to the last guy who tried to read my mind ? She remained silent .
He went 011 , I hate it when people try to read me .
I despise hose who think theyre smart .
You should feel thankful that I decided to work with you instead of getting rid of you .
Well , Im beyond grateful to you .
Ariana couldnt even force a smile .
She had tried to get Victor to work with Evelyn , but he pulled her into this mess instead .
She wondered what Victor saw in her .
Although Evelyn was the only daughter of the Granger family , Evelyn was blessed with a vast social network and wealth .
Had it not been for the fractured relationship between the Grangers and Lodges , Belinda might even approve of Evelyn as her future daughter in law .
When it came to looks , Evelyn was considered outstanding , especially in Gleaston .
In the past life , Victor fell i love with Evelyn at first sight .
Now , Evelyn had generously offered Victor a parcel of land worth 100 million dollars .
Why did he turn it down ? Ever since Ariana was reborn , everything around her seemed to have spiraled out of order , except for Gwen and Igor the dumb mother and son She rubbed her forehead .
Sounding tired , she said , Mr.
Smith , I hope you could think over it- Weve signed the contract .
Theres nothing more to think over .
He arched a brow .
Are you scared ? I- You should have known not to mess with me in the first place .
Ariana was aware of Victors notoriety .

He was from the underworld a heartless , unreasonable man who did not go by the rules .
Dealing with a man like Victor came with high risks .
But Ariana didnt have another choice back when she had signed the contract .
She couldnt risk having Evelyn benefit from the deal with Victor .
That would mean going through the same timeline from her past life , and she might end up dead .
Mr.
Smith , youre kidding me , How would I be scared of a friendly man like you ….
While speaking , she silently rolled her eyes at her own behavior .
She thought , Ariana Torrey , the first thing you mastered after your rebirth is to suck up to people .
Youve really sacrificed a lot to survive until the end , even resorting to making up nonsense .
Looking calm , Victor replied , Im glad to hear that since well be meeting often after this .
You might die from a heart condition if youre scared out of your wits every time you see me .
Chapter 204 +25 BONUS That joke did not land with Ariana .
He motioned at the waitstaff beside him .
Take this away .
Get her a medium rare steak .
Shes not used to raw steak .
Of course .
The steak was taken away .
Ariana realized this was a deliberate move by Victor .
Did he order a raw steak just to mess with her ? Mr.
Smith , lets be clear on certain things .
