The Reborn Wife Of The Tyrant CEO
Chapter 241 - 237

Chapter 241: Chapter 237

"Some people’s lives are all about chasing guys. Eh, there’s nothing wrong with fancying blokes, but when you start using shady tactics, it’s hard not to look down on that!". Zoe propped up her chin and said, "I remember there was an audio clip that got leaked. It seemed to expose Ms. Ariel’s sneaky tricks"

"Shut up!" Ariel was pissed off, she gritted her teeth and told Zoe

Zoe shot me a grin, then pulled a funny face. She was clearly trying to wind Ariel up.

I found her quite entertaining. No wonder Damon found her annoying yet still hung out with her.

Karen had a tight grip on Ariel’s arm.

I wasn’t sure if it was just my imagination, but ever since she became chummy with Ariel, she seemed a bit gloomier

She shot me a hostile look and advised Ariel, "Don’t waste your time on her, let’s go"

"Yeah, Nick is waiting for us. As long as I’m here, I guarantee you’ll get more chances to chat with Damon. You guys can take things to the next level, don’t worry" Nicole confidently reassured, thumping her chest.

She was right. As long as Nick was in the picture Ariel would always have a chance to interact with Damon.

Damon and Nick had been buddies since childhood. He wouldn’t dissolve this friendship without a major disagreement.

However, did Damon know about Nick meeting his enemy before?

On second thought, Nick was quite a suspicious character, but it was not my place to dig deeper

"Let’s go," Ariel said and turned to leave. But the next moment, she stumbled and felt, crying out in pain

Right then, Damon, Nick, and Cooper appeared at the door. We were right in their line of sight, and they could see Ariel’s fall.

Nick was the most concerned. He rushed over, first asked if Nicole needed anything, then helped Ariel up, "Ariel, are you okay?"

Nicole suddenly pointed at me. "Did you trip her on purpose, causing her to fall?"

Ariel was quite hard on herself. She deliberately took a fall, causing a bruise on her forehead.

"I’m fine, Eliana probably didn’t trip me on purpose" Ariel was helped up and replied weakly

Karen accused me angrily, "Ariel just had a few words with you. Did you really have to do something so spiteful?"

This is a foolish tripping revenge tactic children will use back in primary school, and sometimes I’m really amazed at how these three women think.

Damon and Cooper also rushed over; it was quite embarrassing for them, with the status, to be dragged into this drama in full public view.

But after, Nicole was Nick’s girlfriend. They couldn’t say much.

Damon glanced at me, then at my foot. My sprained ankle was almost healed, but if I really tripped Ariel with force, I would definitely feel the pain 100%.

"Damon, your ex sure has a questionable character" Zoe stood up, walked over to Damon, and shook her head, "She’s grown up, yet she still uses childish tactics to frame people. How did you ever fancy someone with such a low brain?"

Damon shot Zoe a glance, "Why is it any of your business?"

Ariel looked at Damon pleadingly. "Damon, I once liked you. Does that embarrass you?"

Liking someone was not embarrassing at all, but what Ariel did was indeed revolting

Damon didn’t say anything. Ariel just posing this question made him feel awkward. He wasn’t the type to get involved in a public spectacle.

Of course, he probably wouldn’t care if he truly liked Ariel

"Nick, could you take your girlfriend and send Ariel to the hospital?" Cooper suggested, his face showing a hint of embarrassment

Nick nodded and picked Ariel up, heading towards the restaurant exit. His natural gesture left Nicole frozen, and she just stood there staring at Nick’s back

Karen, who was busy comforting Ariel, quickly gave her a pull, "What are you gawking at? Let’s go to the hospital!"

"Oh!" Nicole finally came back to her senses and followed them.

Zoe watched this scene unfold and smirked, "Damon, your friend really doesn’t seem to consider other people’s feelings, does he?"

Damon shot her a glance, "Mind your own business"

He finished speaking, and his gaze fell on me. His eyes deepened a bit.

Zoe looked at him, then at me. There was a hint of disappointment in her eyes. She smiled. "Don’t worry. I told Eliana I like you, and I won’t use those dirty tricks"

Her words made me laugh. Every time she was so blunt yet right on point, I really wanted to be friends with her. I believe Luna and the girls would love to have a sister like her.

"Just because you’re silent doesn’t mean you’re mute, so why not shut up?" Damon retorted coldly

Zoe stuck her tongue out at me, and I gave her a smile, "Okay, I need to get back to work. You guys enjoy your meal."

I got up to leave, but Damon stepped in front of me. He took something out of his pocket, and a small pearl earring appeared in front of me

He said, "You left your earrings at my place."

I saw Zoe’s face turn a shade paler. She stared at Damon’s hand, her eyes full of shock and disappointment.

Seeing that I was looking at her, she quickly suppressed her emotions and smiled at me.

I remembered one morning a while back, I saw Zoe leaving Damon’s place. Damon letting her stay overnight meant she was special to him.

The two of them...actually make a good match. I believe Damon’s parents would agree.

"Damon, this earring isn’t mine. Are you sure you didn’t make a mistake?" I smiled and denied ownership of the earring.

Damon’s gaze turned deep; he didn’t pull his hand back, nor did he say anything else.

I gave Zoe and Cooper a nod, and then I was out.

If there was a woman in this world who I think could be a match for Damon, who I could genuinely bless to be his partner, that woman would probably be Zoe.

Zoe’s personality always reminded me of my old self. I used to be that tangled up over Damon too.

Outside the restaurant, the afternoon sun was warm, my feelings were mixed but also relieved.

I was on my way to the company when I got a call, it was Scarlett.

"Ms. Brooks, where are you?" She sounded a bit urgent.

"I’m driving, what’s up?" I asked

"Jones suddenly disappeared. I haven’t seen his shadow in the past two or three days, and can’t reach him on his phone either. Has he come to you? Can you find him?" Scarlett asked anxiously.
