Chapter 52 Chapter 52 When Igor heard that Gwen had sold Ariana to Vance , he froze .
Mom , if you sold Ariana to Vance , what about Mr.
Lodge ? Mr.
Lodge ? Gwens face darkened at the mention of his name .
Ariana completely offended him .
Do you think the Lodges will still accept her ? Its better to sell her off while someones willing to pay .
Even if she ends up as the lady of the Hubbords , its better than having her stay here and compete with you for the family inheritance ! With a bang the door to the Torrey residence was suddenly kicked open .
Gwen jumped in fright at the abrupt noise .
She looked up and saw Ariana standing at the door .
Why … Why are you … Gwens face filled with shock .
She hadnt expected Ariana to show up here .
Wasnt she supposed to have been sent to the hotel by the driver ? Youre wondering why Im here , right ? Arianas voice was cold and distant , and Gwen started feeling guilty under her questioning tone .
Ariana continued , I never imagined this .
Though we might not share any mother daughter bond , Ive always been polite and respectful to you .
Dad treated you well too , and yet you sold me off to a scumbag .
I… I did it all for your own good ! Gwen retorted matter of factly .
You cant be Mrs.
Lodge , and being Mrs.
Hubbord isnt too bad at all .
I did everything for your sake , and now youre blaming me for that .
Ariana didnt bother to hide her disgust upon hearing Gwens shameless words .
How can someone as shameless as you even exist ? Arianal Who gave you the right to talk to my mom like that ! Igor stepped before Gwen and shot Ariana a look You should consider yourself lucky that Mr.
Hubbord takes a fancy to you .
My mom was just finding you a good match .
Do you even realize how you might never get married after offending Mr.
Lodge ? Who else would dare marry you ? Watching the mother and son echo each other , Ariana cackled .
Her almost hysterical laughter sent Gwens hair standing on end .
Oh , so Ms.

Lambert meant well , Ariana thoughtfully murmured .
Seeing her smiling , Gwen put on a flattering face and stepped forward .
Of course .
Ive always had your best interests at heart .
Ive watched you grow up , so how could possibly harm you ? Ariana raised her eyebrows and smiled faintly as she eyed Gwens hypocritical face .
What a shame .
Mr.
Kingsman just announced our relationship tonight , and yet you sold me off to Vance .
When he carried me out of Vances room , his face was purple with fury .
He said hed come to you for an explanation .
What ? Gwen froze .
Her voice was trembling as she asked Mr.
Kingsman ? Are you talking about William Kingsman ? Who else could it be ? Gwens face turned paler at Arianas confirmation .
Are you perhaps saying that Mr.
Kingsman is interested in you ? # 25 BONUS Chapter 52 When shed heard about Ariana attending events with William , shed assumed it was a coincidence .
William had never shown interest in women , after all .
How could he suddenly fancy Ariana ? But now it seemed Ariana had struck gold .
William had indeed set his sights on her .
And that would mean Gwen had somehow crossed William by sending Ariana to Vances bed .
As Ariana turned to head upstairs , Gwen finally realized the gravity of the situation .
She rushed forward and grabbed Arianas arm .
Ariana , wait ! I was too reckless .
Ive done everything for your own good ; please trust me .
Tell Mr.
Kingsman that , and remind him not to take it to heart .
