She Made a Comeback as a Renowned Doctor

Chapter 740: Chapter 740: Does it count as fulfilling her and Wyatt Lewis

Lily Armstrong covered her face, shaking with anger, "How dare you hit me."

Aria Richardson shook her hand, "I’ve already hit you, and you’re asking if I dare? Want another slap as proof?"

"You bitch, Alexander chose you, you’re feeling proud now, aren’t you?"

Aria looked at the furious Lily Armstrong and nodded, "Yes, I’m very proud, and seeing you like this makes me even prouder."

Aria stood in front of the washbasin, reaching out to wash her hands under the faucet, then pulled out two tissues to dry them.

"Besides, it was he who chose me, not that I forced him to. Why don’t you go slap him? Instead, you’re going crazy here with me."

After drying her hands, Aria stepped around Lily Armstrong and walked out.

Lily Armstrong stared at Aria’s back, her eyes burning with rage.

Lily Armstrong had never been so humiliated.

If not this bitch, then who else to blame? She could never swallow this anger.

Lily Armstrong took out her phone and dialed a number, "Send people to the second floor of the banquet hall... Yes, the photo has been sent to your phones. Succeed, or else. The deposit’s already in your account, and the rest will be paid once the job’s done."

After making the call, Lily Armstrong finally felt a bit relieved.

She snorted coldly through her nose, thinking, "How can a clueless girl from a third-rate family compete with me."

Lily Armstrong returned to the banquet hall with red eyes, and Natalie Rogers walked towards her as she saw her.

Lily Armstrong covered her still aching face, suppressing her grievances as she lowered her head.

"Lily, where did you go just now?"

Lily Armstrong sniffed, shook her head, bit her lip, and didn’t speak.

Natalie noticed something off about her, saw that she kept holding her face, and reached to pull her hand away, "What’s wrong? Let me see... Lily, your face... Who hit you?"

Lily Armstrong lowered her head, letting tears fall silently.

"Was it that bitch Aria Richardson?"

Lily Armstrong pitifully nodded, "Yes."

"Where did that bitch run off to? She dared to hit you. Let’s go get her back; this is outrageous." Natalie Rogers, indignant, tried to drag Lily Armstrong to confront Aria.

But Lily Armstrong stood still, "Auntie, let’s not. I’ve already been humiliated today; I don’t want to embarrass myself further."

Natalie paused, recalling how Alexander Knox had chosen Aria in front of everyone, turning Lily into a laughingstock, and she felt a bit guilty.

"Lily, don’t be sad... Alexander was just bewitched temporarily; I believe he will come back to his senses. By the way..." Natalie lowered her voice, "How did the arrangements go?"

Lily Armstrong bit her lower lip and nodded.

Natalie’s previously gloomy mood suddenly lifted, a smile appearing on her face, "Great, when the time comes, we’ll get our dignity back. So Lily, don’t be upset."

Lily Armstrong blinked her tear-filled eyes, "Auntie, the arrangements are in place, but I’m worried about Alexander..."

"Worried about what? Alexander won’t know we set up that woman, and even if he does, I’m here to protect you. I don’t believe he’d dare lay a hand on his own mother.

Besides, once the deed is done, he won’t have a chance to take it back. He’ll have to break off the engagement with the Richardson Family, and we’ll make them return the dowry.

Natalie thought about the dowry and couldn’t wait to get it back.

"By the way, have you seen Young Master Lewis? Has Young Master Lewis arrived?"

Lily Armstrong shook her head, "Not yet, but don’t worry. Even if he doesn’t show up, someone else will. Aria won’t escape this time."

"Good." Natalie couldn’t suppress her smile, "But it seems like it benefits her. Young Master Wyatt Lewis of the Lewis Family, does this mean we’re doing her a favor?"

Lily Armstrong shook her head, a sarcastic smile appearing on her lips, "Auntie, if premarital affairs are confirmed, do you think anyone in the Lewis Family will respect her? Besides, I’ve already arranged the reporters, and when this gets exposed, they’re in the wrong. Wyatt Lewis will face public pressure, and what about the Lewis Family? They’ll get dragged down too."

Natalie chuckled, "True, but make sure it’s done cleanly, or we’ll be finished if we’re found out."

After all, it’s the Lewis Family, and no one in the Lewis Family is easy to mess with.

Especially Waylon Lewis and Hope Williams.

"Yes, don’t worry."

Aria left the restroom but didn’t return to the banquet hall. She headed to the nearby balcony to get some fresh air. A cool breeze passed by, but she didn’t feel cold at all.

Compared to the noise of the banquet hall, she preferred being there. She sat on a recliner on the balcony and looked up at the sky. Today, there were no stars or moon, just a dark, oppressive sky.

Everyone was in the banquet hall, and only occasionally did someone pass by in the hallway outside.

She looked down at her phone and didn’t notice two people silently approaching her from behind.

When she looked up, the two quickly moved forward. One reached over from behind with a chloroform-soaked cloth, covering her mouth and nose, while the other held down her struggling hands.

The whole process happened extremely quickly.

Aria barely had time to struggle before the drug on the cloth took effect. She felt dizzy, her strength fading, with no room for resistance.

Aria’s heart thudded violently.

She heard her phone drop to the ground, vibrating, and then the ringtone sounded.

Someone was calling her, and she wanted to ask for help, but she had no chance.

She was dragged away by two men, who lifted her by the arms. Aria wanted to seek help from people she passed by but couldn’t make a sound.

A passing waiter might have found the situation strange, glancing a couple of times, but the men carrying her scolded, "What are you looking at? Never seen someone drunk?"

The waiter didn’t want trouble and quickly left with his head down.

Aria opened her mouth but didn’t know where they were taking her or who these people were.

Could it be Natalie Rogers and Lily Armstrong’s people?

It must be them.

She had never offended anyone else.

There was no one else but them.

She originally thought they only prepared a scene at the banquet hall but underestimated them.

Beep.

The room door opened, and she was dragged inside and thrown onto the bed.

Aria tried to think of ways to save herself but was too weak.

Then she heard the two men’s conversation.

"Alright, call Miss Armstrong and report that we’ve got her and put her in the room." noveldrama

Miss Armstrong! It was indeed Lily Armstrong!

It seemed like more people entered from outside, as the men instructed them a bit before leaving. Aria saw two women approaching. Without a word, they began to strip off her dress, then put her in a gauzy nightdress.

But that wasn’t all. They also scattered flower petals on the floor, lit incense, and turned on warm lights, decorating the room like a romantic date.

What were they planning?

If they intended to taint her, why do all this?

Aria bit her lip, wanting to fight back but too weak, trying to rely on pain to stay awake, but the drug was too potent, and her eyelids grew heavy until she fell into darkness...

Wyatt Lewis initially didn’t want to come. He had no interest in such banquets.

But Lily Armstrong said Aria would be here, so he was worried she might be in danger, and he came.

He arrived at the banquet hall but couldn’t find Aria, so he called her. No answer. He called several more times, but it was the same result.

Wyatt Lewis felt a wave of inexplicable anxiety, his already foul mood darkening further.

Lily Armstrong had just hung up the phone, unable to suppress the smile on her lips, "Auntie, it’s done."
