Chapter 89
Did Theodore not care about all of that?
As Ariana gazed at him in silence, a gloominess came over her.
She couldn’t help but feel sorry for him.
There was a knock on the door, and the restaurant manager entered with some new folded clothes in his hands.
Theodore took the clothes and maneuvered his wheelchair to the restroom.
Ariana hesitated for a moment before standing up and following him.
However, she had only taken a few steps when Theodore suddenly stopped and turned his wheelchair slightly to look at her.
He raised his eyebrows and asked incredulously, “What? Do you want to change my pants for me?”
A blush appeared on Ariana’s face and she halted, flustered.
She spluttered, “What are you talking about? I’m just worried that you’ll fall because of your legs.
”
Theodore chuckled and said, “Don’t worry about it.
I can manage.
”
Then he turned back around and went to the restroom to change.
Ariana lingered a little longer in the private room.
for him, but soon she felt hot and stuffy.
She decided to wait outside and get some fresh air.
However, the moment she took a step out of the private room, Jasper appeared out of nowhere.
He yanked Ariana by the wrist and shoved her against the wall.
She let out a yelp in surprise and struggled, but he held her firm and hissed, “Have you fallen in love with Theodore?”
She could feel his hot breath on her face, and her nose was hit by the strong smell of alcohol.
Ariana struggled desperately from his grasp.
“Are you crazy? Let go of me!”
How much did this coward have to drink? She could tell he had drunk without any consideration.
It didn’t help that he went crazy when he was intoxicated.
Ariana gritted her teeth.
Furious, she lifted her leg and kicked him, snarling, “I said let go of me! I’m your sister-in-law!”
But it had no effect.
Jasper pressed on her to stay still forcefully.
His eyes looked wild and unfocused as he mumbled, “Tell me the truth.
Do you love Theodore? Why are you out with him on Valentine’s Day? And why did you look so worried when I scalded Theodore just now? Don’t tell me you feel bad for him.

Ariana was enraged, but she couldn’t help but let out a bitter laugh.
Jasper’s behavior was so absurd to her that she couldn’t even bother explaining.
She gave in and followed his accusations.
“Oh, yes, I’ve fallen deeply for Theodore.
But what else did you expect? He’s far more handsome, considerate, and exceptional than you could ever hope to be.
He’s nowhere near as despicable as you.
”
Jasper’s eyes narrowed in fury.
He went berserk and grabbed her shoulders, shaking her violently.
“I’m despicable? Me? Ariana, are you sure you even know who’s the despicable one? Do you know what the hell you’re talking about? You say you’re in love with Theodore? How dare you have feelings for that guy! What kind of shining knight do you think he is? You’re naive! You’re only being fooled by him! You’re an idiot!”
“So what? I do what I want to do.
It’s none of your business,” Ariana retorted coldly, unperturbed by his outburst.
She didn’t want to be a doormat to him.
She glared daggers at him, infuriated.
Jasper stared at her in disbelief.
Dazed by her reply, he loosened his grip on her shoulders.
He asked in a low voice, “Why are you acting like this? What did Theodore do to you? We were together for three years.
You’ve only been married to him for a month.
How has your mind changed so drastically?”
Jasper’s outrage had only disappeared for a moment.
As he spoke, his voice rose higher and higher, and soon he was roaring at her in fury.
Ariana wasn’t frightened.
Rather, she was.
irritated by the nerve he had to talk to her like this.
She snapped sarcastically, “Don’t pretend like you’re perfect, Jasper.
We both know who betrayed our relationship first.
”
Jasper froze.
He goggled at her in silence for a moment before he suddenly burst out laughing like a lunatic.
He pinched Ariana’s chin between his fingers and lifted her face, forcing her to look at him.
Then he leaned closer and said, “You’re just saying this to piss me off, aren’t you? You’re trying to take revenge on me because I’m with Brielle.
”
Ariana was shocked by Jasper’s ludicrous allegations.
She gazed at him in bewilderment and asked incredulously, “Jasper.
Don’t tell me you regret it, do you?”
Jasper was stunned for a moment.
A complicated expression suddenly appeared on his face, and he seemed to be struggling.
Jasper lowered his head in anguish.
The veins on the back of his hands bulged, as if he was holding something back.
Ariana knew Jasper well and could immediately tell what he was thinking.
