Chapter 151

Author: Tightrope
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 by Vireon.

After she was done making her notes, Ariel noticed that Jayson and Nancy had split up. Nancy was nowhere to be seen. On the other hand, Jayson was trying to move away from the crowd forming around him, heading toward the hall.

Ariel put down her pen and stood up. She informed Chad before leaving her seat. "I'm going to the restroom for a bit."

"Sure." Chad was looking down as he responded.

Ariel stopped Jayson just as he turned the corner. Jayson's expression remained unchanged when he saw Ariel. "What's wrong?"

Ariel lifted her head. Her face was so tiny that it made her big, serene-looking eyes stand out even more. "I need to ask you something. So, just give me a moment."

By the time she realized the ring was gone, it was already too late. The ring was nowhere to be found.Elena still could not forgive Morgan for his actions, even after their relationship fell apart.Although Katie had not said anything, Ariel could tell she would think about the ring occasionally.Ariel never thought she would come across the ring at a charity auction after all these years."I suppose what belongs to the Walker family will eventually come back to us one way or another," she pondered.Even Janice had noticed the sudden change in Ariel's emotions.Tears welle

    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 wanting to do it more even though it was already late last night…"Ariel lowered her gaze expressionlessly.She felt nothing as she listened to those words, whereby Wendy was pretty much declaring that Lucas was hers. Ariel appeared completely uninterested.Just then, Wendy looked at Ariel and beamed. "Can you stay around for a bit longer today? We have a big surprise later, and we need you here."Ariel met Wendy's eyes. "What is it?"Wendy blinked. "You'll find out in a bit."She wanted to keep the event a surprise. Then, Wendy gently pulled Lucas along and led him in a certain direction. "My dad's here. You should go and greet him," she said.Lucas placed his arm around Wendy's waist and followed her. Before he walked away,

    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 Matt had treated her with scorn and disdain in the past, Ariel endured all of it because of Jayson. However, she did not have to do that anymore.On the other hand, Janice had no intention of speaking to Frederick. She simply ignored Matt and him.Matt felt quite surprised. He was not mad or annoyed about it.It seemed to him that Ariel had been growing bolder lately. He could not help but wonder if she was trying to use another approach to catch Jayson's attention.Just as Jayson had predicted, Ariel did not personally deliver any hangover soup to them the night before the federal holiday."Don't you think Ariel is acting a bit haughtily these days?"Frederick furrowed his brows. He was a little flabbergasted.

    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 to steer the topic away. She stared at Zach expressionlessly and asked straightforwardly.A cold light shone in her eyes. Still, Ariel maintained a steady tone in her voice. She did not lose her temper or yell at him.Yet, Zach did not think that Ariel was acting this way because of her mild temperament. Instead, he reckoned Ariel dared not argue with him and try to defend herself because she had a guilty conscience.After all, he had personally witnessed Ariel's attempt to seduce Jayson."No. You and I barely know each other. There's no way you could've offended me."Ariel creased her brows. She felt even more confused now as to why Zach had made that absurd, unfounded remark earlier.Chad's face darkened. He had always

    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, these people figured it would only be a matter of time before he took Nancy as his wife.The crazed man was escorted out of the hall.Ariel felt nothing as she watched the entire incident. The people around her were murmuring amongst themselves."Gosh! Mr. Larkin is so protective of his partner! He looked so dashing!""I've heard from others that Ms. Stanton is Mr. Larkin's girlfriend. Judging by the look of things, we'll very likely hear some good news from them soon.""It isn't just likely. It'll happen for sure! I've heard from my dad that Ms. Stanton has been gaining a lot of attention in their circle. Mr. Larkin has been introducing a lot of his connections to her."Moreover, he would bring Ms. Stanton to various ev
