《The Billionaire Regret After My Goodbye》全部章節：第 221 章 - 第 230 章

The Hawaiian shirt guy was already terrified, and the waiter’s words about "other matters" made him think of the multi-million-dollar vase. There was no way he could pay for that. He’d only bragged earlier to get the waiter to back off. Now he panicked."She pushed it!" he shouted, pointing at Kane and Aria. "If you want someone to pay, go talk to him!" His fear of Kane momentarily forgotten, he made a desperate plea.Kane let out a cold, chilling laugh.A shiver ran down the man's spine. He immediately clammed up.The waiter saw the man was a walking disaster. Handing him over to Kane would mean certain doom. "Mr. Wolfe," he interjected. "This gentleman is the host of the garden party, and we need to ask him a few things about what happened." The waiter didn't want to get on Kane's bad side, but he had a mess to clean up.The Hawaiian shirt man, finally catching on, realized his best bet was to stick with the waiter. "Yes, yes, I need to stay and sort things out!" he yelled, giving K

The drug’s effect, which had come on so fast, was now fading just as quickly. After all the commotion, Aria was much more lucid, and the dizziness was gone. When she finally came to her senses, she saw Kane and Caleb facing off, with Caleb saying something about how much he liked her. She was completely bewildered.What's going on? When did Caleb get back? How did I run into him here? And judging by the looks of it, they were about to fight.She rubbed her temples, trying to remember what had happened, but her memory was a blur. The last clear image she had was of Kane appearing in the crowd. Unable to figure out why Kane and Caleb were at odds, she started to walk over to ask. Just then, Caleb swung a vicious punch at Kane. Aria's face went white. Without thinking, she darted forward, placing herself between them.A searing pain shot through her stomach. Only then did she realize what she had done."Aria! Why?" Caleb's face was a mix of confusion and pain.Aria gave a weak smile. She

Aria took a step back. This was the first time she’d heard about Kane’s mother, and a sudden understanding dawned on her—he had told her he was just playing around to protect her.“Aria, I don't want us to become enemies, and I promise, I will never be on the other side of the fence from you." Caleb said, still looking at her intently. "So please, consider this. Give me a chance to take care of you, protect you, and love you in place of Kane. Will you?"He knew he was being selfish, but what he was saying was true. He didn't want to be on opposing sides with her or have to fight against her with his family. He was willing to use any method, whether it was a threat or a plea, to get her to choose him, because only then could he prevent all the things he had just told her about.Seeing the hope in his eyes, Aria involuntarily took another step back. "I'm sorry," she said."You can't replace him." A bitter smile touched her lips. "I've thought about what you said. I know that if I became

The girl Aria had seen at the club had jumped to her death. The man in the Hawaiian shirt, the culprit, was arrested.When Aria saw the news, she was a little surprised. She had heard that Celestial Club had powerful connections in both legitimate and illegitimate circles, and usually, the club owner would cover for the guests in these kinds of situations.Either it would be handled discreetly or the client would be completely exonerated. It was rare for such a story to be exposed in the media.When Aria asked Kane about it, he just smiled. In fact, while waiting for her in the car, Kane had called the club's owner.It was Kane who insisted that the Hawaiian shirt man be sent to jail, which is why the club had handled the matter the way they did.The man's time in prison would not be easy, either, as Kane had already instructed his people to "take care" of him. After what happened with Carol, Kane knew better than to be so careless around Aria.Aria, however, didn't pry. After that in

"Oh, I'll have someone else take over that event," Emma said dismissively.Aria frowned slightly. "But I've been in charge of it.""I know. Just go to the ATTA meeting first, and then you can head to the event. Doesn't it run until late?" Emma glanced at her watch. "The ATTA meeting starts at 1:30. Go find the project manager. You'll go with their team."Aria nodded with a sigh. "Okay."Emma smiled at her. "That's how it is when we're short-staffed; you have to be in two places at once. All right, you can go now. Don't forget to fill out an overtime sheet."Aria took the sheet and left.The Main Street event ran until 8:00 PM. Aria took her phone and went to the break room. "Kane, I'm working late tonight. You don't have to come get me."Kane had been driving her everywhere lately, and even though she'd asked him to stop, he never listened."How late?" Kane's voice on the other end of the line sounded unhappy."The event ends at eight, so I probably won't be done until nine," Aria sig
