She didn't know why, but this wasn't like Aria Grant's character from before. However, when she heard Mallia Mamet talk like this, pleading for her to leave, Aria found it increasingly invigorating. The more she felt like this, the more determined she was to stay.
"Well, if that's how it is, then it makes it even less likely for me to leave. Watching you in anguish brings me joy actually! Besides, given the kind of person I am, you shouldn't expect me to go along with your intentions, should you?"
Maybe there wasn't much of a conflict between them before, but just a few moments ago, they definitely became bitter enemies. Even though Mallia Mamet had a strong backing, Aria Grant wasn't any less capable! After all, she did have George Flack, even if he was her ex-husband now.
