Chapter 191

Author: Tightrope
Having Jayson accompany Nancy onstage changed the meaning entirely.

His status already placed him in the top tier of the elite. Rather than saying he was giving a speech with Nancy, it was more like he was boosting her image.

There were many top-tier executives and corporate heads present. Seeing this would almost certainly give Nancy a clear path in her career.

Even Chad frowned, then glanced at Ariel beside him.

If that really happened, it would be no different from publicly confirming their relationship.

Ariel returned his look with a calm gaze.

It didn't matter to her.

At this point, how could she not see how much Jayson valued and cherished Nancy? It no longer came as a surprise.

Noticing that Ariel was completely unfazed brought Chad some relief.

Nancy tilted her head toward Jayson. "Jayson?"

Jayson glanced at his watch. With a trace of regret in his voice, he replied softly, "I have a call coming in soon. I have to take it. You go ahead."

Nancy looked briefly disappoi

    Betty glanced alternately between the couple.She stepped forward and slapped Jayson on his arm. "Why aren't you saying anything to Ari, you heartless boy? When will you ever change that attitude of yours?"It wasn't like Betty hadn't noticed how Jayson had only given his attention to those books ever since he returned. He acted as though the books were much more interesting than Ariel was.Matt heard those words as well. He said teasingly, "It's because you're worried that Ariel may suddenly change her mind and refuse to get divorced if you show her even a bit of kindness now. After all, women are mostly… soft-hearted and sentimental."Especially if it was Ariel, who was deeply in love with Jayson.Jayson paid no mind to Matt's comment. He simply ignored it and ended the call."Why are you still standing there? You should drop Ari off at her office." Betty couldn't possibly let Ariel leave on her own. She dragged Jayson along as she stepped through the front door.Ariel had jus

    Betty was delighted to see Ariel dropping by Larkin Manor. She went up to her and clasped her hands. "How come you got here so late? You just finished work?"After speaking to her on the phone, Betty thought Ariel wouldn't be able to visit her for quite some time.Ariel responded gently, "I came here from the office. Didn't Jayson send some gardenias here today? I'm planning on moving them to where my office is."Betty paused momentarily. "Yes, he did. He said that they were your favorite. Since they're tearing down parts of the house and working on the renovation soon, the plants may not survive if they just leave them there.""That's why I'm taking them to where my office building is. It'll be easier for me to look after the plants there," Ariel explained."They're over here. Come and have a look at them yourself, Ari." Betty led her to the sunroom, found to the left outside the door.Ariel spotted the gardenias, which had been carefully dug up and moved here.She hadn't check

    Ariel had no trouble recognizing the woman in the photo—it was Nancy. Moreover, Matt had included a caption with the picture."Being a consultant for the day."They were probably discussing and deciding how to give the house a brand new look, both inside and out.When Ariel received Betty's phone call, she had an inkling. Jayson had torn down many of the structures inside their marital home to build a new one for Nancy.After all, this house was located in one of the most strategic locations in Eldoria, so there were hardly any downsides to living there."He took her to the marital home in which the two of you had lived for three years. Is he already planning to have her move into the place?" Chad knitted his brows. "It looks like Jayson might be in a more of a hurry to divorce than you are."Ariel averted her gaze. "He's tearing down a lot of the structures inside the house. The construction process will probably take several months."They were likely at the stage where Nancy—t

    Betty didn't notice anything strange from Ariel's calm, steady voice since the latter sounded very much like her usual self.She expressed her concerns. "I was thinking you and Jayson could stay here at Larkin Manor. Have you settled down at your new place, then? Should I send some of our helpers over?"Jayson owned quite a number of properties. The couple could just pick a location that suited their needs the most. Betty was offering to send help over to clean up the place for them.Still, their new place would probably be empty and desolate since Ariel and Jayson were often busy with work.Ariel replied in a gentle voice, "It's alright, Grandma. We've taken care of pretty much everything.""That's great," Betty responded. Then, she asked, "Why did you guys suddenly decide to do such a huge renovation now, though?"They hadn't had any major issues with the house previously. Moreover, it had only been three years since it was completed. Betty could still vividly remember how much

    Ariel looked at Freya for a moment. Eventually, she accepted Perry's offer to help. "Thank you. I owe you one."After all, she and Perry weren't even that close. If possible, Ariel didn't want to owe anyone any huge favors.Perry could sense that Ariel was trying to keep her distance. He hesitated for a moment before nodding. "Alright. I'll let you know once I've made an appointment with him."Ariel came up with an excuse and left first. Freya watched as Ariel walked away.She turned her head and glanced at Perry. "Ms. Walker's husband is an awful man. Am I right? He didn't care for Ms. Walker or try to keep her company, even though she's sick. I definitely won't date a man like that in the future."Perry was struck speechless."You can't say things like that when others are around. Alright?"Freya pursed her lips. "Why, though?""Ms. Walker's divorced now."Freya was shocked at first. However, she quickly said, "Really? Can you try pursuing Ms. Walker and ask her to be your g

    Liam didn't reply to his message this time. He had no interest in sharing any comments on such a strange and random topic.Ariel was completely oblivious to the opinions Zach had formed of her.She was in a rather cheery mood. Tom and his team from Nexura Solutions had swiftly prepared most of the project's finer details, and communication between the two teams had been smooth.They should be able to complete the first round of data testing within the estimated time.Ariel went to the hospital during her lunch break.Once they had secured the liver donor for Leonard's transplant operation, the hospital would soon set the time and date for the operation accordingly.Ariel tried asking the hospital staff again if they had any news about Fergus, but the people there told her that he still hadn't stopped by their hospital. That gave Ariel quite a headache.It would be best if she could get the most competent doctor she could find to operate on Leonard. Unfortunately, Ariel had run o
