Chapter 216

Arabella barely acknowledged Melissa and Timothy, who were still in the living room, before she eagerly pulled out her cell phone to call Paul.

She had to dial several times before Paul finally answered. His voice was filled with a cold indifference. “What is it?”

“We should meet.” Arabella said as her mind raced to figure out how to ensure Paul would uphold their deal.

“Fine” Paul replied after a long silence, then gave her an address. “Meet me at THEONE Club.”

Arabella hung up the phone, ignoring the curious glances from the two in the living room, and headed straight out.

Ashley watched Arabella’s hurried departure with a smirk. Did Arabella really think she could marry Paul?

She wouldn’t let that happen. It was time to release the secret that she had paid a high price to obtain from one of Paul’s ex–girlfriends.

THEONE Club.

“Ms. Vivienne, how about a game of Truth or Dare?”

In the hall, Logan, Oberon, Charlotte, Faye, and Coral were laughing and joking around with Vivienne.

They had invited Vivienne out as a way to say thank you. They had originally planned to go for dinner, but someone suggested they should have drinks instead. So, they ended up at this club owned by the Redwood Group.

“How do we play?” Vivienne asked while raising an eyebrow and sipping her green tea.

“We use this empty bottle.” Logan placed a bottle and a cup filled with dares on the table. “Whoever the bottle points to gets to choose between truth or dare. But if you choose truth the first time, the second time you have to pick dare. No repeats. The dares are drawn from the cup.”

“Alright.” Vivienne was intrigued.
