Coolest Girl in Town

Chapter 1043

Am I fated to be a backup plan forever? Why am I always one step too late to snag a good man? As if

it's not embarrassing enough to seduce a married man, the guy's wife even caught me in the act. If I

wake up now, she's going to kill me. I better pretend I'm still unconscious. However, Suella was not cut

out for acting. Her eyes were still rolling around behind her eyelids, but someone who had blacked out

wouldn't have that kind of reaction.

A smirk curled Ariel's lips. She knew Suella was acting, but she said nothing about it. Instead, she

asked, "What's with you and her?"

"Nothing. I don't know her." Danny raised his hand and swore, "I almost got run over. She warned me

about it, and the car ran her feet over instead, so I took her back. I swear I'm loyal to you, honey. My

heart can contain no one else but you." Ever since Rylantha set him up, Danny guarded his chastity

closely. It was why he stayed away from Suella from the moment he saw her.

Suella was incensed. What?! Do you think you're the victim here? You should feel proud you can have

a scandal with me!

"I trust you." Ariel smirked. "Even if you were to cheat on me, you'd pick someone with better looks or

curves."

Danny froze and shrugged in confusion while Suella was infuriated. Is she implying I'm ugly and not

hot? Suella gritted her teeth and clenched her fists. Her nails were already digging into her flesh. Damn

this woman!

Before she could calm down, Ariel said devilishly, "I think she's hurt inside. Perhaps a concussion. We

should arrange a craniotomy for her in case her situation worsens."

Hearing her words, Danny finally realized she was merely kidding. He held his laughter in and went

along with his wife. "But that's dangerous. She might end up crippled from the waist down. Or even

worse, she might live her whole life in a coma."

Suella froze, holding her breath. What the hell? All I did was help him out. How did I end up in a

situation like this? This isn't what I expected!

"What can we do?" Ariel continued, "It's all in fate's hands now. Dr. Lorwhal is here, so we might as well

turn a room into a makeshift operating room and get on with it."

"No!" Suella leaped away angrily and snapped, "I'm a living person. You can't just decide my fate. This

resort is in the middle of nowhere. What if something were to happen to me? I saved your husband's

life, and this is how you treat me? How disgusting!"

Ariel crossed her arms, not feeling angry at all. She stared at Suella like she saw a joke. "Oh, you're

talking fine. Guess you're not dizzy anymore, huh?"

Angered and humiliated, Suella wanted to hide in a hole. Goddammit! What have I done? Now, they

know I was pretending to be unconscious all along.

Since Suella was Alicia's friend, Danny thought this should be enough lessons for her. "Here, have

some water." He handed a bottle of water over.

Suella tried to take the water, but someone was faster.

"Sorry." Ariel stuffed the bottle back into Danny's hand and whipped out her bag to get some money.

She said, "The water's custom-made for me. It might not be suitable for you. If you're that thirsty, take

this money and buy something to drink for yourself." She handed Suella some notes, staring daggers

at her. Nobody can try to steal my man.

Suella's face was as red as blood. She knew what Ariel was trying to say, and she was embarrassed

that Ariel found out about her intentions. If she took the money, she would be humiliated, but if she

didn't, she would look like a fool. In the end, she hobbled away in shame without taking the money.

Danny had conflicting emotions about this. "Miss Taggert is Alicia's friend. I think that was a bit too

much."

"You feel sorry for her?" Ariel said coolly as she tucked her money away.

"Of course not!" the man exclaimed before raising his hand again. "If I were to fall for another woman,

I... I'll cut my d*ck off!"

"Then, who's going to d*ck me down?" She tossed the wallet to him and took two bottles of water. "Wait

for me in the room."

"Where are you going? I will come with you." Danny wanted to tag along.

"Ladies' matter. Stay out of it." With that, she entered the reception hall without saying another word.

Alicia was unpacking their stuff in Room 302 when Suella came hobbling in. She looked awful—it was

as if she was about to explode. "What happened?" asked Alicia. "And what's with your feet?"

"I—" Suella wanted to complain, but then she was reminded of what Ariel had said earlier. Ultimately,

she swallowed back her words. "It's nothing." She waved Alicia down impatiently. "Just sprained them.

That's all."

"Is it serious? Do you want to go to the hospital?"

"No. Just stay out of it."

Worried about Suella, Alicia kept asking for details, but Suella got into the bathroom and locked her

out. Just then, someone rang the doorbell, so Alicia answered the door.

She was met with a smiling Ariel. "Miss Whitney? Are you here for me?" Oh, Danny did say he would

treat me to something. She's probably here for that, I guess.

"Yes." Ariel smiled. "The resort's just opened, and normally, the water's quality would be... bad. I hope

you've prepared your own water in advance, but if you haven't, here's a little gift. You know how

important water is to women." She handed the water bottles to Alicia.

"Thank you." Alicia took the water. "You really planned this out."

"Of course. So, where's Miss Taggert?" Ariel craned her neck to look inside the room.

"Oh, she's in the bathroom. Do you need something from her?" asked Alicia.

"Nothing. Danny told me she fainted all of a sudden. While he was taking her to the reception hall, she

seemed dizzy and could barely hold herself up. Not until she met me, of course. I thought I should see

her. Falling unconscious out of the blue can be serious. If I can heal her, I will gladly do so."

Alicia was smart enough to catch on to the hidden message in Ariel's words, especially when she

linked everything to Suella asking her about Danny.
