Does it hurt ? Simon poked around .
Ouch ! Stop … Dont touch ine there ! Ariana felt Intense sureness in her back and waist , especially for being dropped onto the bed by Victor .
It felt like her injuries had worsened .
Simon examined her back carefully .
After a moment , he said , Its not a big deal .
You just accidentally hit your bones .
Itll get better after some rest .
I thought I was going to die at Victors hands .
Ariana glared at Victor , who stood silently nearby .
Simon adjusted his glasses .
Why on earth were you drinking ? … I couldnt sleep , Ariana replied , her tone laced with guilt .
She couldnt admit that she had nightmares and was too scared to fall asleep .
That would be too embarrassing I see .
So Victor taught you that , right ? Simon glanced at Mctor and continued , You know shes a woman .
Stop using the same methods you use on men .

Ariana stared at Simon before asking , Dr.
Finch , can I ask you something ? What is it ? Simon was curious .
Does Victor have some kind of hidden medical condition ? Ariana turned to him .
What nonsense ! Victor doesnt have any medical conditions ! Simon was perplexed .
Then is he unable to get married ? Ariana asked again .
Actually … Victor is wealthy , powerful , and good looking Rich and handsome bachelors like him are rare .
Its just that … Hes a bit too intimidating , so no woman dares to approach him , Simon explained awkwardly .
Oh , that explains it .
Ariana nodded .
Simon paused .
Explains what ? It explains why youre so eager to match me with Mr.
Smith .
Youre afraid he wont be able to get married , right ? Ariana was confident .
Neither Ariana nor Simon noticed Victors unpleasant expression .
It was already 4:00 am , and the effects of the alcohol on Ariana had mostly worn off .
Thinking about her embarrassing tantrum around Victor earlier , Ariana couldnt help but smack herself .
She had gone too far this time .
It might have been fine if it were someone else .
But why did it have to be Victor ? She reminded herself that Victor would side with Evelyn in the future .
He was someone she couldnt get close to , much less offended .
