Chapter 97 So , it was perfectly fine for men to cheat , but women were supposed to know their place and be content ? What kind of twisted logic is that ? Ill pretend I didnt see what happened today , but you need to take care of it .
Then , as if suddenly remembering something , Belinda added , Oh , and didnt you mention dropping out of school ? Yeah , I did .
Well , since youve already dropped out , theres no point worrying about school anymore .
As the wife of the Lodge family , youll still get that certificate , whether you go to school or not , Belinda said .
But , Mrs.
Lodge Senior … Just do as I say .
All you need to focus on is winning Brians heart .
Forget about everything else .

Belindas tone was commanding Though Ariana felt a surge of dissatisfaction , she knew she had no choice but to comply .
Without Belindas protection , the Torrey family would be left vulnerable if Brian decided to take action against them .
Arianas silence was a clear sign of her agreement .
Seeing Arianas obedient demeanor , Belinda smiled approvingly .
Good girl .
I appreciate your compliance .
I heard Brian has asked you to move in with him .
Thats a great start .
Patting Arianas hand gently , Belinda continued , To win a mans heart , youve got to start with his stomach .
And youve got a real advantage there youre an amazing cook Brian doesnt like to eat food made by others , but as long as you keep him well fed , he wont be able to leave you .
There was an underlying message in Belindas words .
Ariana immediately grasped her meaning .
Belinda believed she and Brian had already grown intimate , which explained his invitation for her to stay .
Ariana smiled and said , I understand , Mrs.
Lodge Senior .
Thats good , Belinda replied , placing a small bottle into Arianas hand .
Light it before you go to bed.
Youll naturally understand its purpose .
Ariana glanced at the small brown bottle .
It wasnt until she had left Belindas residence that she finally took off the lid and inhaled deeply .
A sweet , overpowering scent filled her nostrils .
It was a familiar fragrance the same one shed encountered in Brians room the last time she was there .
It seemed that Brians loss of control had been entirely caused by this love potion .
Belinda had sent a different driver to take Ariana back to the Lodge residence .
Recalling the incident with Zane , the new driver was incredibly cautious .
He was fearful that anything he said might upset Ariana .

The moment she entered , a maid holding out a dress approached her .
Ms.
Torrey , Mr.
Lodge insists you change into this uniform upon your return .
Ariana glanced at the uniform in the maids hands and the snug expression on her face , then let out a derisive scoff .
Brian was determined to crush her self esteein , piece by piece .
Ariana looked at the uniform in her hand , then walked over to the table and grabbed a pair of scissors .
Under the maids astonished gaze , Ariana began cutting the uniform to shreds .
The maids expression changed in an instant .
Ariana ! Have you lost your mind ?! Chapter 98
