Chapter 634
“No enmity would last forever in this world, and the same goes for friendships. Look at us now. Aren’t
we on the same team?“.
Arianna did not get the chance to answer before he continued, “Don’t tell me things like blood is thicker

I don’t believe in. We can only sit here together to discuss our plan for one reason. We have the same
goal in mind, and this plan would benefit both of us. Am I right?”
Arianna looked at Nathaniel with a solemn gaze.
“You don’t need to look at me that way.” Nathaniel chuckled. “I told you we’re not enemies, at least not

“Get Henry to be on our team. We can help him to become the head of the Lodge family. He owes us a
favor, which would definitely be useful to us in the future.”
“How can we get him to be on our side?”
His endless questions irritated Arianna. Straightening her back, she snapped, “Aren’t I supposed to be
