Chapter : 159 Ariel fell into deep thought after hearing Janice’s words. “Is that it?” she pondered. She stared at Jayson with a somber look in her eyes. Ariel could not tell what he was thinking at the moment. If it were just as Janice had predicted, Jayson would be

Chapter : 158 Nancy reckoned Ariel probably did not know much about the market price for these types of antiques. Jayson slowly put down his cup. “What matters is that you like it and it’ll make you happy. Raise your paddle.” Nancy froze for a second. Then, her face broke

Chapter : 157 Ariel would recognize the ring anywhere. It was a family heirloom that Katie had passed down to Elena. Back then, Elena wore this ring as her wedding ring. At one point, the Sanderson family encountered some financial issues. Morgan took the ring and sold it for cash

Chapter : 156 Lucas let go of Ariel immediately. “Why didn’t you tell me earlier so I could fetch you here?” Wendy smiled. She went up to Lucas and placed her arms around his waist. Leaning against his chest, Wendy mumbled shyly, “I didn’t want to trouble you. You kept

Chapter : 155 Matt spotted Ariel first. His brows arched. Still, he greeted her and Janice. “What a coincidence seeing you here.” Ariel merely cast him a brief glance. Then, she grabbed Janice’s arm and led her away. She clearly had no intention to interact with him. Despite how often

Chapter : 154 Ariel had nothing to do with anything, no matter what it was that Jayson had done for Nancy. Ariel and Chad arrived at Faye Tech’s building. It was not like they had gained nothing from attending Vireon’s product launch. Ariel had written down details worth noting. After

Chapter : 153 Even Ariel, who was usually mild–tempered, could not help feeling a bit piqued and shocked by his words. She could not understand why Zach seemed to have a lot of scorn and disdain for her. “Mr. Quinton, have I somehow offended you previously?” Ariel did not try

Chapter : 152 Jayson lowered his head and looked at Nancy. He lightly patted her back to calm her down. The people around them started looking at Nancy a bit more seriously after witnessing how Jayson had stepped up to protect her. With Jayson showing so much concern for her,

Chapter : 151 Ariel was completely oblivious to all these things happening on Zach’s side. She and Chad discussed for a while the high–tech material that Vireon was about to launch. Even before the event started, Ariel had roughly listed out the pros and cons of this new material made

Chapter : 150 If Ariel were to go ahead and tell all those people that she was Jayson’s wife earlier, Nancy might end up getting criticized for dating a married man. Jayson might not let Ariel and her family off if that happened. In the end, Ariel made her decision

Chapter : 149 As soon as Jayson and Nancy arrived, the group of executives welcomed the pair warmly before escorting them into the building. They even showered the pair with flattery. “Ms. Stanton and Mr. Larkin make such a handsome pair. It’s our honor to have you two as our

Chapter : 148 Freya debated for a bit before snapping off a small piece of a palmier and handing it to Perry. “I’ll give you this much. You can just have a taste. Ms. Walker has made them specially for me.” Perry was rendered speechless as he looked at the

Chapter : 147 Perry would ask Ariel if she had managed to get in touch with that doctor from time to time. Ariel told him frankly about the situation she had encountered. Perry responded, “That person hardly ever uses his phone. He’s often in remote areas overseas, where there is

Chapter : 146 Looking out of the window, colorful fireworks could be seen exploding in the air. Ariel raised her head and gazed at the night sky. Then, she turned her eyes toward Katie and Leonard, who were recording the fireworks show by the window. She could sense that Betty

Chapter : 145 And then, Ariel noticed a familiar name below that–Nancy. Her gaze dimmed slightly. So they had their own private group chat. Nancy really was the center of their universe, the one everyone flocked around. All those years married to Jayson, she never knew that a spouse could

Chapter : 144 The outdoor spring was the largest hot spring in the resort and had the best view. From there, one could see fireworks bursting in the sky and towering mountains in the distance. Ariel quickly sensed something was off. She was wearing a swimsuit underneath. If she took

Chapter : 143 Ariel almost choked on Katie’s words. “Grandma, you misunderstood. He’s Jayson’s friend.” Katie’s expression stiffened for a moment. “Well, that won’t do. He’s not suitable. Keep looking, then.” Leonard helplessly cut a piece of steak for Katie. “Mom, Ari just decided to get a divorce. There’s no

Chapter : 142 Evelyn was caught off guard. She stayed silent for a moment, trying to unpack the meaning behind Ariel’s words. She knew Ariel’s personality well–always good–tempered and considerate. If something was within Ariel’s ability, she rarely said no to any of Evelyn’s requests. So now, Ariel’s sudden assertiveness

Chapter : 141 From beginning to end, Perry had viewed Ariel through biased eyes. Now, as he looked at her, she looked so calm without any emotional fluctuation. Her gaze no longer held the old politeness or tolerance she once showed them. Instead, it was sharp and distant. Ariel had

Chapter : 140 The resort was quite full for the holiday season. Most of the guests were wealthy or influential, and the service was top–tier, on par with a five–star experience. As soon as Ariel and her family arrived, resort staff stepped forward to help with their luggage. Katie had
