Revenge is My Love Language novel Chapter 239

Technically, Mr. Jason shouldn’t even be among the guests for their university’s anniversary celebration. But since he’s a major donor—one of Kingsbridge University’s biggest, in fact—they couldn’t afford to offend him. Reluctantly, they granted him a spot.

The problem was, Mr. Jason was a notorious lech. And now, he’d set his sights on one of their own students.

Normally, Mr. Pierce wouldn’t bother with this sort of thing. But Anastasia had the worst luck—of all people, she managed to offend Harrison Lancaster’s woman. So, Mr. Pierce thought, she had it coming.

“At tonight’s outdoor ball, she’ll be Mr. Jason’s dance partner. Let Mr. Jason enjoy himself,” Mr. Pierce murmured in a low voice, the implication clear.

Mr. Jason grinned with satisfaction, his eyes gleaming with predatory interest as he ogled Anastasia.

Anastasia’s expression cooled, but she kept her composure, calmly looking away.

Every other guest had been paired with normal, respectable partners. Only she had been given this creep. Did they really expect her to believe it was just a coincidence? Hardly.

Soon, it was time for the honor guard to make their entrance.

Each of them carried a bouquet, preparing to present it to the distinguished guests.

“It’s starting, it’s starting! Hurry, set up the camera—don’t miss Alice and her boyfriend together on stage, this is going to be adorable!”

All eyes were on Alice. Her face glowed with a shy, hopeful smile as she tried to steady her racing heartbeat. She walked gracefully toward the man who carried himself like royalty.

At last, she stood in front of Harrison, her eyes shining with adoration, and offered him her bouquet.

“Mr. Harrison Lancaster…”

At the sound of his name, Mr. Pierce felt a surge of certainty.

He’d guessed right: Alice was indeed the girl Harrison Lancaster had a soft spot for.

Otherwise, how could she have known who he was?

After all, Harrison had attended the anniversary celebration incognito—his identity hadn’t been announced to the public. Only someone close to him could know.
