Chapter : 99 Noticing Betty’s enthusiasm, Ariel thought that seemed peculiar. “He… had already left.” She wasn’t sure when Jayson left in the night. Judging by how neat the bed was, she was certain he didn’t stay the night. Betty’s expression changed. “He left? It’s only 7:30 am. I woke
Chapter : 98 Jayson calmly withdrew his hand and glanced at Betty. “Happy now?” Betty was reassured, but she still told the household staff to bring Jayson a bowl of concoction. “Take this supplement. It’s good for you.” Seeing that she insisted, Jayson decided to go along with her. He
Chapter : 97 Ariel’s gaze flickered, and she unknowingly tightened her grip on her utensils. Renee took in her reaction in that fleeting moment, and her grin broadened. She shoved her phone nearer to Jayson, demanding a response. “Jayson, do you like it or not?” Jayson’s cold gaze fell on
Chapter : 96 Ariel also had a bit more peace of mind. She accompanied Leonard for lunch. At the same time, she recovered from the discomfort she felt from the radiation therapy. Then, she returned to Faye Tech to wrap things up. Jayson never contacted her again. The next day,
Chapter : 95 Jayson spoke in a business–like tone. Ariel’s gaze wavered slightly. She was very uptight. Because of the radiation therapy she just had, she felt lightheaded. She had to secretly hold onto the nursing counter to stop herself from falling. Ariel took in a deep breath. “There are
Chapter : 94 The nursing facility was right behind the department she was in. It was quite near. When Ariel arrived, she paid a lump sum of 200 thousand dollars. After she signed the bill, the nurse asked her, “Ms. Walker, would you be okay if we relocate Mr. Walker
Chapter : 93 Janice had just taken a dosage of oral solution, grimacing in pain as she did. She turned toward Ariel. “I’m sure there are a good number of them. Various organizations of different natures will collect paintings from various means for resale.” Confused, she asked, “Why?” Ariel kneaded
Chapter : 92 However, Betty’s appetite was much better. She even took an extra helping. The oatmeal Ariel prepared was almost finished. Even Jayson took a big portion. Ariel wasn’t surprised at all. Jayson had always enjoyed her cooking. After dinner, Jayson went out to answer a phone call. Ariel
Chapter : 91 The call went unanswered for a long time. It was only about 8:00 pm. Betty was a mischievous old soul. She liked to watch dramas and scroll through the reels on social media. She shouldn’t already be asleep. Ariel called the landline instead. One of the household
Chapter : 90 In the afternoon, Chad called. “Earlier today, my old man pretended to show concern about the progress of the projects under Faye Tech. He’s actually just curious about the topic you’re interested in after making a comeback. Well, you should compile your data and send it to
Chapter : 89 Ariel was already at the airport. She checked in her luggage before replying, “About 4:30 pm.” Jayson fell silent for a moment. “I see. Wait for me when you reach. I’ll give you a ride back to the city.” Ariel thought that he must be calling only
Chapter : 88 Ariel calmly replied, “I threw it away.” Lucas stared at her and realized she was expressionless. He then said, “Well, so be it. I’ll get you a new one. Ariel paused before saying, “There’s no need to. I don’t need one.” She would be lying to say
Chapter : 87 Ariel’s mind went blank for some time. Jayson’s breath was tinged with alcohol as his lips grazed against hers. She couldn’t even put up a fight against him, not until she felt him trying to part her lips. Shaken back into her senses, she shoved him aside
Chapter : 86 The location tag on Ariel’s post showed that she was at a hotel in Halread, and Betty saw it. Ariel wasn’t sure how she should answer that question. “We are attending the same function.” She didn’t elaborate on whether or not they had come together. After all,

Chapter : 84 Ariel looked up at Chad’s word. There was a burst of applause as a tall and poised man strode in. Upon recognizing Carlos, Ariel immediately straightened up. Her palms were slightly sweaty as an indescribable sense of anxiety crept into her. Carlos had really come. When he
Chapter : 83 Jayson had a stony look in his eyes. His tone was flat and steady. Yet, Ariel could feel her cheeks burning. She felt as though something had pounded her hard on the chest. The way Jayson had made his choice without the slightest hint of hesitation made
Chapter : 82 Chad lifted his brows and cast a glance in Ariel’s direction. He said unhurriedly, “Everyone, you flatter me too much. To be honest, I’m not the developer of U.N2. I merely witnessed and participated in the process of its creation.” Those around Chad looked shocked and bewildered
Chapter : 81 The venue for the convention was located just a short distance away, opposite the hotel. Ariel felt a lot better when she woke up the next day. Her throat did not hurt as much as it did yesterday. Still, she took the medicines just to be safe.
Chapter : 80 They also heard how Ariel sounded when she spoke on the phone earlier. Nancy frowned slightly and remained silent. Matt let out a chuckle. “She’s quite good at acting, isn’t she? She’s suddenly acting weak to try and catch your attention now?” “Perhaps she’s really fallen sick,”
