Chapter 355

Author: Tightrope
Ariel's heart missed a beat. She lifted her gaze and met Liam's eyes.

He hadn't shown any excessive interest or eagerness in trying to dig up more information. It seemed like he was just asking about Jayson because he saw him earlier.

Ariel gave a slight nod. "He left."

She gave a short, precise answer.

Ariel didn't try to explain her relationship with Jayson, nor did she remind Liam that he shouldn't make any strange assumptions about them.

It would seem like she was trying really hard to hide something instead.

There was no use explaining too much since Liam had seen them together. It would be better if they just put an end to the conversation.

Liam wasn't exactly that surprised. He could tell that Ariel didn't want to talk about Jayson.

He found it completely understandable. Ariel was not obligated to tell him anything, especially when it involved her private matters.

"As the patient's family member, you'll be quite busy during the next 24 hours. Fortunately, with the medic

    Well, of course it was also because this was the hospital's most high-end ward.Katie slid Ariel's tray of food over to her. "I think so. The nurse brought them up."Ariel nodded, taking the food.Sometimes, she had to admit that pricey stuff really was better.For the next couple of days, meals arrived like clockwork. Not once was the menu repeated.Leonard had been moved out of intensive care and was awake, though still unable to move.The moment Janice heard, she insisted on coming over with Chad. Ariel couldn't even stop them.They dropped by when they had a bit of free time.Seeing how exhausted Ariel looked after two days, Janice walked over and gently pinched her cheek. "There are caretakers and nurses around. Let yourself relax a little, okay?"Chad quietly set the gift basket of supplements on the side. Leonard had just fallen asleep.Ariel led them into the living room outside the bedroom.Once they had confirmed Leonard's condition was stable, the two shared a bit

    Jayson did not move from his seat.Ariel frowned and stared at him. "Is there something else you need to talk to me about?"In other words, she was telling Jayson he should probably get going now.Jayson looked at her before glancing at his watch. "Since I'm already here, I might as well stay around until the operation's over."Ariel said in a slightly mocking tone, "You're just worried that I'll change my mind and go back on my words, aren't you?"Jayson was probably worried that Ariel was simply lying to him by agreeing to his request first only to go back on her promise afterward.Jayson's lips moved slightly as he kept his gaze on her. Then, he responded monotonously, "Mhm. That's why I can't just leave you be."Ariel could not be bothered by the fact that Jayson did not trust her. She knew that this was the kind of person Jayson had always been. You could hardly change his decision or opinion once he had made up his mind about something.Ariel simply averted her gaze. She

    Ariel couldn't quite understand what was happening. Her mind was already a mess since she was feeling worried. She had a confused, dubious look in her eyes the moment she saw Jayson."What are you doing here?"Jayson slowly directed his gaze to the bright red light above the operating room door."Why can't I be here?" Jayson replied nonchalantly. He sounded as if he did not really understand what Ariel was asking.Ariel furrowed her brows. Jayson's sudden appearance had interrupted her train of thought. "Mr. Larkin, you know what I mean."Ariel didn't want to waste time beating around the bush.Jayson fixed his gaze on Ariel's face. After staring at it for quite some time, he seemed to have noticed that her face looked a lot smaller. Ariel was so thin that her chin and jawline looked excessively defined.Jayson took another glance at her and said, "I'm here to keep you company."Ariel frowned. "How did you know my uncle's having the operation today?"Jayson responded unhurried

    Ariel shook her head. "He already knows the answer, so he won't."Chad agreed. "You have a point. Well, he'd be a real scumbag if he tried to make an unreasonable demand of you for Nancy."Ariel couldn't care less about what the Veyo Solutions team would do in their current situation.Leonard would be having the operation the next day. She was not in the mood to think about other matters.…It took quite some time for them to schedule a date and time for Leonard's operation.They now had Liam sharing his professional opinion regarding Leonard's treatment. After confirming that Leonard's vitals were in the suitable range, they quickly decided on the time to perform the operation.Ariel had applied for a day off.Chad couldn't make it to the hospital with Ariel. He wanted to have Janice keep Ariel company at the hospital instead. However, Ariel turned down his suggestion since she didn't want to trouble them and have them wait around with her.Besides, things had been quite hect

    Perry understood almost instantly the underlying meaning behind Ariel's words.The Houston Group had managed to secure the patent license without much difficulty. Yet, it was not because Faye Technologies had any interest in doing business with them. Instead, it was because Perry had helped Ariel before.Also, Ariel would not owe him any favors anymore since she had done this for him this time.While staring at her impassive face, Perry understood clearly that Ariel had been courteous and polite to him not because she saw him as a friend.After a while, he nodded. "I understand."Truthfully, Perry knew from the beginning that Ariel wouldn't see him as anything more than a business acquaintance.Moreover, he was Jayson's friend. His and Ariel's relationship just couldn't possibly develop into something more.Frankly, even if they did, Perry was not sure he would be able to handle the situation well.He and Jayson had known each other for more than ten years. Perry couldn't possi
