A Love Forgotten Novel by Webfic

I stopped in my tracks.

The mocking voices continued to echo behind me.

“Is she Ariana? Hah, isn’t she Elijah’s biggest sycophant ? I remember she gave each of us 50 thousand dollars last time only to beg for his forgiveness.”

“Yeah, she’s always chasing after Elijah. Every bar in the city has spies she’s paid off to keep tabs on him. Such dedication… Too bad that Elijah doesn’t even care about her.”

“She’s just pathetic for throwing herself at him. She’s ruined the York family’s reputation.”

“Keep it down. She’s Jonathan’s sister…”

“What do we have to be afraid of? We’re Elijah’s close friends. She should be trying to suck up to us.”

“The York family must be embarrassed to have such a disgrace like her.”NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.

Anger uncontrollably churned within me.

Teri heard their outrageous remarks as well. She tugged at my arm. “Let’s go, don’t mind them. They’re just a bunch of brainless, spoiled rich kids who know nothing but spending money.”

Just then, I abruptly turned around and slapped Porter hard across the face.

He had a cigarette between his lips and was utterly caught off guard by my slap. The cigarette fell to the ground as he staggered back a few steps.

He clutched his face as his eyes widened in shock. “How dare you slap me?”

Without a word, I grabbed another guy who had been mocking me earlier and dug my nails into him hard. “Oh my God! She’s attacking us!”

I continued to lash out at them with a dark expression. I didn’t even know where I’d found the strength to go after four or five of them like a lunatic.

After a while, Teri quickly rushed over to grab them for me and cursed at them, “You bunch of mannerless, spoiled brats. Do you guys eat shit a lot? Is that you guys have such nasty mouths? Do you all think you can afford to offend the York family? You bunch of petty losers, lowlifes…

“You actually think you deserve Ariana’s respect just because she’s been nice to you? Pah!” Teri scolded as she grabbed them and even landed a few punches on them for me.

At that moment, my mind went blank. All I could see was their twisted faces, and the only thought I had was to make these fools shut up.

They could insult me all they wanted, but not the York family and my brother! I would make them all regret

it!

When the group finally came to their senses, they rushed over to grab back at me. However, I fought back fiercely. I fought back with everything I had at everyone who came at me.

Even the four or five of them couldn’t manage to catch me and Teri.

Then, some of them started shouting for security guards, while others threatened to call the police. Eventually, I was overpowered and was grabbed multiple times before being pushed down to the ground. Porter cursed, “She’s crazy! Hold her down! Damn, she’s insane. She made me bleed!”

Just then, a figure swiftly pushed through the crowd and forcefully shoved everyone off me. This happened just as the security guards were approaching, ready to hold me down.

The figure was tall and precise in his actions, and I was quickly pulled into his arms and shielded by him.

The man shouted, “All of you, stop it right now!”

I wasn’t sure what power his words held, but it made the crowd back off significantly.

He then looked down at me in concern. “Ari, are you alright?”

I looked up and smiled. “Logan, I’m fine.” I wiped my nose as I spoke, only to see my hand covered in blood.
