Chapter 72 425 BONUS Know your limits , Ariana .
A frown marred Brians face .
Its not like I absolutely need your food .
Youre on your own , then , Mr.
Lodge .
Ariana ate a mouthful of her omelet before Brian as though taunting him .
She knew Brian was spoiled rotten since he was young , so he didnt know how to cook .
Brian didnt burst out in rage upon facing Arianas taunts .
Instead , he scoffed at how bolder she had gotten .
Brian stood , entered the kitchen , and found a few instant noodle packets in the cabinet .
So , he grabbed one for himself .
Arianas smirk deepened at that .
She wanted to see what Brian would do next .
Much like she expected , many loud sounds soon emanated from the kitchen .
Brian had no choice but to exit the kitchen with a simple bowl of instant noodles in the end .
Ariana had already finished her meal by then .
She entered the kitchen with her empty plate while peering at Brians instant noodles .
Then , the corner of her lips curled into a sneer .
That utterly angered Brian .
What are you getting at , Ariana ? he snapped .
Oh , nothing .
Youre overthinking things , Mr.
Lodge .
Ariana smiled at Brian , adding , Im just here to wash my plate .
Although she said that , her smirk made it clear that she mocked Brian for not knowing how to cook at his age .
Brian lost all his appetite just then .
He approached the wine cabinet , grabbed a random bottle of wine , and threw his head back while downing its contents .
Ariana knew Brian tended to have stomach issues .
Yet , Brian still habitually drank a glass of red wine every night to relax .
She witnessed the sight before her and thought , I mustve lost my mind in my previous life to want to help Brian , quit drinking .
Now that I think about it , Id rather look after myself than worry about someone else .
Ariana looked away from Brian , thinking the latter could drink all he wanted .
After all , even if he died of drinking .
it would have nothing to do with her .
Time went by , and the atmosphere in the dining room became awkward .
Ariana was counting down the time .
Yet , Belinda didnt seem likely to return anytime soon when it turned 11:00 pm .
As for Brian , he was resting on the couch and reading the newspaper .
In the end , Ariana lost her patience first .
She voiced , Im going to check if theyve unlocked the door .
Brian emotionlessly spoke when he saw Ariana get off the couch .
I already tried opening it ten minutes ago .
Its still locked .
That rendered Ariana speechless .
She eventually said , Im going to bed upstairs , then .
Are you seriously acting like this is your home now , Ariana ? Do you think I want to live in your home , Brian ? Ariana found him unreasonable .
Why dont you think about who it was that brought me here in the first place ? So , youre saying this is all my fault ? Brian snorted , You were the one who refused to come when I asked during the day , yet you insisted on following me here at night .
You must be so innocent , huh , Ariana ? Chapter 72 +25 BONUS Mr.

Lodge , you phoned my family residence and asked Emily to pick me up .
You practically forced me to come here Why , you- Im exhausted and have no energy left to argue with you , Mr.
Lodge .
After saying that , Ariana wanted to go upstairs .
However , that only ignited a blazing fire in Brians chest .
He felt Ariana had become bolder since they registered their marriage .
She always seemed eager to anger him until his stomach issues worsened .
Upon going upstairs , Ariana opened the door to the room she used to stay in at the Lodge residence .
