Dead at Heart Chapter 243
Even though Veyo Solutions had burst onto the scene with impressive momentum, Ariel and Chad remained pragmatic.They discussed offering the team at Faye Technologies some additional benefits to keep morale steady during this uncertain time.That evening, Chad reserved a private room at Velvet Fork, bringing along the technology and project departments for dinner to discuss Faye Technologies' upcoming plans.As the group arrived at Velvet Fork, Ariel's phone buzzed.She glanced at the screen. It was Jayson's first message since she had saved his new number."The day after tomorrow is Mr. Spencer Senior's birthday party. Can you make time to attend?"Ariel frowned at once.Betty had mentioned it before, suggesting that Ariel attend Jackson Spencer's birthday party with Jayson. Ariel had assumed he would find a way to decline the invitation. But apparently, he hadn't.What kind of relationship did they still have that justified going together?They were already in the middle of

Jayson's question caught Ariel off guard. Her brow instinctively furrowed.She didn't want any mistakes or slip-ups in the divorce. Even if she didn't want to maintain contact with Jayson, she had to consider the bigger picture now.She thought for a moment, then slowly exhaled. "Can I?"Jayson's gaze lingered on her. His eyes held something unreadable.A slight smirk played on his lips as he replied, "Whatever you want."Ariel felt odd about that answer but was too tired to care.She entered Jayson's new phone number into her contacts, double-checked it, and finally felt a little relieved.When Jayson glanced at her call log on the phone, his expression was calm and unbothered.Ariel checked the time.She had only come to visit Betty. Now that Betty was resting, she didn't plan to stay longer. Holding the gift box with Betty's watch, she prepared to leave.Just as she turned, a long, strong hand gently gripped her arm."Wait," Jayson called out from behind.Ariel instincti

Ariel knew that Betty had always liked her cooking.After the soup was ready, Ariel stayed with Betty as she ate and chatted for a while. Then Betty asked Ariel to go to the bedroom she shared with Jayson to get the gift she had prepared.As Ariel walked into the living room, she spotted Jayson drinking soup in the dining area. He was calmly finishing it while browsing his tablet.Ariel hadn't expected him to be back, and he had even finished the soup she had just made. Didn't he already eat with Nancy?Noticing Ariel's gaze, Jayson looked up slowly. "What's wrong?"He was confused about why she was staring.Ariel frowned but said nothing. Instead, she turned toward the bedroom to get the gift.The room hadn't changed one bit. Her personal items from earlier were still there.Betty's gift was a diamond-studded ladies' watch. Ariel knew the brand and guessed it wasn't cheap.Since it was Betty's heartfelt gesture, Ariel didn't hesitate to accept it.Just as she stepped out of

Ariel stood not far from the floor-to-ceiling window. The entire Class A office building across the street was clearly in view."Is there something you need?" she asked.Her mind raced, weighing the possible areas where Veyo Solutions might clash with Faye Technologies in the future.Jayson was likely still in the office. The faint sound of keyboard typing came through the phone. He spoke calmly, "The maid at Larkin Manor called. Grandma caught a bad cold that turned into mild pneumonia. She just got back from the hospital. Do you have time to visit her?"Ariel instinctively frowned, concerned about Betty's health. Late spring chills often caused people to fall ill.Before she could respond, Jayson added flatly, "Grandma told me yesterday she prepared a birthday gift for you but hasn't given it yet. You can pick it up when you visit."That reminded Ariel. Betty had called about a gift when Ariel was in Sorenta."She keeps mentioning your name. But if you can't make it, that's fi

Ariel calmly withdrew her gaze. "Don't bother considering it.""Why not?" Chad blinked."Jayson owns that building."Chad immediately looked annoyed. "Ugh, capitalism at its worst."Across the table, Alan had been quietly hearing their conversation about the office building. His expression shifted slightly. "You two don't know?"Ariel looked up.Alan pointed toward the building across the street. "A new company is moving in over there."Seeing their puzzled looks, he elaborated, "You've heard of Nancy Stanton, right? The rumored girlfriend of Mr. Larkin from Bluum Corp? Well, she's not joining Bluum Corp."She's starting her own drone company. That building is the registered address. The news just leaked today. It'll be called Veyo Solutions."Chad's expression darkened instantly.Nancy didn't join Bluum Corp but was launching her own company?Ariel frowned. "When did that happen?"Alan answered, "It was just announced today, though it's still in the preparation phase. I he

Perry couldn't hide the shock on his face anymore.Was Ariel's name added to Faye Technologies' project not because Chad was trying to pad her résumé, but because she had genuinely participated in the development?That thought cracked open something in his mind and quickly took over all his reasoning.Perry sat there in deep contemplation for quite some time.It wasn't until Freya nudged him that he came back to his senses and drove her back to school.Right then, he got a call from Matt, asking him to come by Bluum Corp.Perry hesitated for a second before agreeing.When he arrived, he headed straight to the top floor and noticed Nancy was also there.A flicker of suspicion flashed in Perry's eyes.Inside the office, Jayson was sitting on the couch reading a document. In addition to Matt and Nancy, two sharply dressed businessmen were present."What took you so long?" Matt turned to look at Perry and teased, "Don't tell me you've been secretly dating someone."Nancy also lo
