Chapter 177 No Family Talk, Just Business

• Ariana's POV:
• After tidying up, I changed out of my white coat and headed downstairs. Spotting James' car parked near the entrance, I didn't even spare it a glance before making my way to the parking garage.
• I had my own car that Stefan had given me. And compared to James', mine was undoubtedly more luxurious. That was precisely the point. I wanted to make it clear to him that I wasn't someone who could be easily bought. He might think he could manipulate me like a pawn in his game, but I wasn't about to let that happen.
