Chapter 300: Chapter 296

Looking at Nicole’s overly dramatic expression, I thought to myself, "Man, she’s such a dumbass."

"Eliana, if you could say sorry to Nicole, we could forget all about this and still be friends," Ariel played the peacemaker, acting all sincere

But the bomble thing that happened to Nicole can’t be settled by an apology, even if I had done it. Ariel was only saying that because she didn’t experience it herself

And besides, doesn’t she know who the real culprit behind Nicole’s troubles is?

Nick, on the other hand, was staring at me without a trace of guilt. He’s one cold hearted guy. He did this to his own girlfriend, just to break up with her, and he’s trying to pin all the blame on Nicole so she can’t pester him anymore

Sadly, Nicole is too smitten with him, thinking that Nick is good to her and that she’s the one in the wrong

"Ariel, are you serious?" I coolly adjusted my hair and clothes, and asked Ariel calmly.

"Eliana, you’re the one who needs to apologize. What does this have to do with me?" Ariel seemed confused by my question. She grabbed Nicole’s hand, "Nicole is my best friend, I certainly don’t want her to be bullied.."

Nicole looked at Ariel with gratitude.

Just then, Ariel’s eyes lit up as she spotted someone in the distance. She looked ecstatic, "Damon, over here!"

I was taken aback when I saw Damon, as we were just video chatting

Well, it’s Valentine’s Day. It makes sense for Ariel to want to hang out with him

Damon walked through the crowd and his gaze lingered on me for a bit before moving away

Ariel, always quick on the uptake, rushed over to link arms with Damon, resting her head on his arm in a show of possession.

Damon’s arm twitched as if he wanted to pull away, but I shot him a glance, which made him frown, clearly displeased.

"Damon, you’re here too?" Nick seemed surprised to see Damon, then his gaze shifted to Ariel

Something felt off.

"Today’s Valentine’s Day. Of course, he should be spending it with me, but..." Ariel trailed off, then looked at me, "There was a little unpleasant incident. Eliana and Nicole had a fight"

"What happened?" Damon asked indifferently.

"Damon, you be the judge. At Jones’s engagement party, your ex wife Eliana drugged me, and I made a complete fool of myself. Wasn’t it her fault? Shouldn’t she pay for it?! " Nicole asked anxiously.

Now that Damon is back with Ariel, Nicole naturally thought Damon would take her side.

"But Nicole, don’t get worked up. There’s right and wrong in every situation. If Eliana really did something wrong, we’ll definitely get you justice!" Ariel blurted out.

I almost burst out laughing. They were laying the blame on me behind my back, with no intention of giving me a chance to explain.

Just as Nicole started to charge at me again, I shook off her hand and glared at Ariel, "Ariel, I’ll give you a minute to explain. If you continue to instigate Nicole, you’ll regret it."

Ariel was taken aback, then after a few seconds of thinking, she laughed awkwardly, seeming even more cautious than before, "Eliana. I don’t need to explain anything if you didn’t do it, I would definitely tell Nicole to leave you alone."

Nick was sharper. He seemed to sense something wrong in my words and stepped forward to grab Nicole’s hand, "Let’s go clear this up outside. We shouldn’t involve others."

Nicole, who had wanted a private chat with Nick, naturally wouldn’t refuse

Seeing the two of them leave, Ariel seemed a little unhappy. She was probably upset that she couldn’t continue to pick on me.

"Nicole"" I suddenly called out to her

Despite the noise in the bar, she heard me and stopped

Ariel perked up, almost as if she was itching for me to provoke Nicole.

Damon raised on eyebrow, clearly puzzled by my action

"What now? Are you going to apologize?" Nicole sneered, "You’ll have to kneel and beg for forgiveness. Otherwise, I’ll sue you!"

"I’m afraid you don’t have any evidence. How about I give you some?" I said, my eyes sparkling with amusement.

A puzzled look crossed Nicole’s face. She asked, "What are you saying?"

I pulled out my phone, ready to call Aaron. He could vouch for me

Seeing this. Nick abruptly tried to stop me. "Ms Brooks, this is between me and Nicole. It has nothing to do with you. We need some privacy now"

Nick’s attitude only confirmed that he was on guard against me

"Nick, if Eliana has something to say let her say it" Ariel chimed in. She spoke to Nick’s with apparent sincerity

Nick shot Ariel a look, but they seemed to be out of sync

"Eliana, if you feel wronged, present your evidence" Ariel walked over, oozing confidence.

Damon stood behind her, his gaze fixed on me

He was silently asking me what I was up to

Ariel was certain that i had no evidence, which is why she was so adamant about hashing it out here and now Perhaps she even wanted to embarrass me in front of Damon

I avoided eye contact with Damon to avoid suspicion

"I’II make a call and let him explain, " I said, ready to continue the game since Ariel wouldn’t back down!

Nicole looked at me, puzzled, but this time she didn’t say much, Nick on the other hand, looked quite concerned

I dialed Aaron’s number and he answered straight away, "Hello?"

"Aaron, Clara’s drunk and passed out. Can you come and look after her?"

"I’m already at the door, be right there" I didn’t expect Aaron to be so quick on his feet Right after I hung up the call, and there he was, tall figure in the crowd. He seemed a bit antsy, like he wasn’t having the best day

I gestured at him and he saw me, immediately made his way through the crowd towards me

Ariel didn’t recognize Aaron, looked a bit puzzled

But Nick, he looked like he remembered something, his face changed instantly

"Clara’s over there, you should get her settled," I pointed in Clara’s direction, "Aaron, if you’re not going to give her your whole heart, then please make it clear to her. Don’t make her suffer"
