Chapter 170 Self-Deceiving

He took the opportunity while the two of them were busy fighting to sneak towards the door.

Five meters, three meters, two meters…

Seeing that the door was getting closer and closer to him, a smile appeared on Miles’s face.

He could escape from this room immediately. As soon as he got out, he would immediately leave New York City. No! He would leave America.

The further the better. It would be best if he could escape to the Eastern country. He heard that life there was good.

In just a few minutes, Miles had already thought of his escape route and how he should live when he arrived in another country. Just when victory was an arm’s length away, a foot landed in front of him.

It was a pair of men’s leather shoes, clean and spotless.

Miles felt a chill running down his back, and all the hair on his body stood up. Because of his fear, Miles couldn’t help but tremble. He stiffly raised his neck and looked up inch by inch, finally fixed on Luke’s smiley face.

“May I ask where this gentleman is going? I don’t think I gave you permission to leave.” Luke placed his foot on the top of Miles’s head and pressed his raised head back to the cold floor.

“Although doing this seems very ungentlemanly, I really don’t like the look in your eyes, so please lower your head and be cooperative.”

While Luke was speaking, he stomped on Miles’s head with his foot, making Miles look twisted with pain.

Eliza, who had been fighting Luke just now, was now standing on the doorway, panting and looking at Luke with hatred.

Eliza knew perfectly well that she had missed her chance of retrieving Jocelyn’s body. By now, Aren must have taken the elevator down. In fact, if he’d walked fast enough, he probably would have gotten into his car.

It was as Eliza thought. Aren had already placed Jocelyn’s body in the backseat of the car and her head on his lap, while waiting for Luke to come out.

What he did was recorded by Susan not far away hiding behind a potted tree. She zoomed in the video and saw Aren holding Jocelyn.

Susan frowned, wondering if she was wrong. Susan couldn’t help but doubt the information she received. However, this shouldn’t be the case. While waiting for Aren, she had already gone to the Ivy University’s school forum and found a classmate who was good friends with Miles. From them, she found out some information about Miles.

Miles was a lecher. He surely couldn’t resist the temptation of Jocelyn’s beauty.

So what exactly happened in the hotel room

“What kind of trick did Jocelyn play to trick Aren into believing her again?” Susan mumbled. At this moment, a message came.

“Why are you so quiet? How is the situation now?”

Diana Kept pacing around the room. She walked until her calf was faintly aching but she did not stop. Diana did not want to call Susan so soon, but she was really suffering and tormented. If she did not call to ask the results, she would go crazy.

Her hands, which used to be unusually smooth and tender, were now covered in wounds, and some places were still bleeding.

Due to anxiety, Diana couldn’t stop herself from biting her hands. If she stayed any longer, she would probably have fainted from hemorrhage.

Susan, who was holding her phone, hesitated for a moment and decided to send the video she filmed to Diana.

The video of Aren walking out of the hotel with Jocelyn in his arms was sent to Diana. Although the video was a little blurry, Diana, who was familiar with Aren, recognized him immediately.

As she looked at it, she dropped her phone to the ground and broke the screen.

“How can this be?”

“Doesn’t Aren hate betrayal the most? Why can he forgive Jocelyn so easily?”

“Could it be that he really fell in love with Jocelyn?”

At the thought of this, tears instantly welled up in Diana’s eyes. She couldn’t hold back her tears anymore and let them fall.

“No, I should believe Aren. He won’t betray our relationship so easily. There must be some misunderstanding.”

“Or maybe Susan was wrong and that Jocelyn didn’t actually betray Aren.” There was no logic in what Diana said to comfort herself, but she couldn’t care less now. If she didn’t lie to herself, she felt like her heart was going to shatter.
