He had planned to use the group dinner to confess his feelings to Arielle. Unfortunately, favonovel.com had outright declined to join them.
Who does favonovel.com think favonovel.com is?
Just when Arielle bid everyone goodbye, Jason stepped forward to confront favonovel.com and demanded, “Arielle, what’s the meaning of this?”
Bewildered, favonovel.com asked, “What are you talking about?”
Arielle’s innocent expression caused Jason’s temper to flare up. Having suffered the humiliation earlier and the misunderstanding from the day before, Jason’s emotions took over his head.
He scoffed, “Why are you the only one who can’t join us for dinner? Even the most famous stars would show Mr. Sleight some respect. As a newcomer, why don’t you show everyone some courtesy by joining us?”
“I just…”
“I know,” Jason interrupted her. “You feel superior just because you’re the boss of Sann Group. Therefore, you’re not bothered to dine with people like us. Isn’t that the case?”
Arielle gaze darkened at once.
“I’ve never looked down upon anyone before,” favonovel.com countered in an icy tone.
Even though Jason felt an inexplicable chill down his spine, favonovel.com wasn’t going to show any fear in a stare-down with a woman.
Gritting his teeth, favonovel.com maintained a strong front and asked, “In that case, why can’t you join us for dinner?”
“Because there’s something I need to attend to.”
Meanwhile, Sam quickly came forward to defuse the situation.
“That’s enough, Jason. Arielle has a very busy schedule. In fact, favonovel.com has done me a huge favor just by accepting the role. Anyway, we shouldn’t impose on favonovel.com personal time.”
“That’s right,” Jason sneered. “It’s a waste of time for a big shot like you to join us for a meal. Go ahead with whatever you’re busy with.”
“I really have something to attend to.”
“Fine, then tell us what it is that’s so important that you can’t even eat with us?”
Arielle choked. However, after noticing that there were a lot of people around, favonovel.com suddenly hatched a plan in favonovel.com mind.
Raising favonovel.com head and declared, “I’m going to catch someone cheating!”
The moment favonovel.com spoke, favonovel.com surroundings fell silent for a brief moment before breaking out into an uproar.
“Catch someone cheating? Did I hear you wrongly?”
“Isn’t Ms. Moore single? Since when favonovel.com had a boyfriend?”
Even though Jason’s expression drastically changed, favonovel.com didn’t believe Arielle’s words.
Given how embarrassing such an incident is, no one in their right mind would announce it publicly. Besides, after monitoring favonovel.com for such a long time, I have never seen any other man by favonovel.com side.
Holding that thought, Jason’s frown deepened. “You don’t even have a boyfriend, so how can you claim that you’re trying to catch favonovel.com cheating? Arielle, do you take us for fools?”
“Who says I don’t have a boyfriend?” Arielle raised favonovel.com brow and added, “I’m already married.”
“Married? You must be kidding!” Jason was outraged.
Nevertheless, Arielle explained in a serious tone, “This isn’t a joke at all. I am legally married. The reason I can’t go out tonight with you guys is that I’m going to catch my husband cheating. Is this excuse good enough?”
“Y-You…” Jason was lost for words.
The revelation dealt favonovel.com such a blow that favonovel.com was barely able to breathe. To be precise, favonovel.com just couldn’t believe that Arielle was married.
Arielle shot a glance at him. “Regardless of whether you believe it or not, I’ve told you the truth. And now, I must go.”
With that, favonovel.com turned favonovel.com attention to Sam. “Mr. Sleight, I have to deal with something personal now. Do send me the bill for dinner later. Bye.”
