Chapter 474

Penulis: Tightrope
For a while, the events at Ashford University's anniversary became sensational news. Many students began idolizing Ariel after reading about her on the university's online forum.

Evelyn was stunned when she heard the news. The more she learned, the more bewildered she became. It all sounded too surreal.

Ariel had suddenly become the top figure among her peers in the academic world.

"Mom? Where's Jayson?" Renee asked urgently as she arrived home.

"He's probably in his study," Evelyn replied, recalling that one of the maids had mentioned Jayson had returned briefly to retrieve his seal.

After a moment's thought, Evelyn decided to check on him.

But Renee was quicker. She had darted off toward the study.

Jayson's study was his private space. Normally, no one entered without permission. He had just set down a book when the door opened and Renee appeared.

He gave her a sidelong glance. "Do you not know how to knock?"

Renee shrank back a little. "Sorry, Jay…"

But her curiosity got t

  • Dead at Heart   Chapter 516

    Nancy could barely process anything after receiving such a crippling blow. It felt like she had plunged into a cold, dark pool—one she might drown in at any moment.Everything that had unfolded was disastrous and overwhelming for both her and Sarah. She couldn't make sense of it. Just when things seemed to be moving forward positively, one plan after another crumbled.Nancy knew she had to find a way to salvage the situation.Publicly, the major incident at Veyo Solutions was still under wraps. The news about Nancy's misappropriation of dividends hadn't leaked.But inside the company, employees were stunned when they learned Ariel had replaced Nancy as their new boss. Most had been aware of the connection between the two women; now they had clear confirmation and a stronger sense of whom to respect.That night, Nancy couldn't sleep. The weight of defeat felt far heavier than any setback before.Even after Veyo Solutions informed her to clear out her desk, she still couldn't reach

    Jayson didn't pick up.Nancy drew in a long breath but couldn't quiet the anxiety and anger rising in her chest. After the mess at the art exhibition, she'd also lost her status as a shareholder of Veyo Solutions."What's the matter?" Sarah asked as soon as she got home. Nancy's incoherent phone call earlier had worried her—something serious had to have happened for her to lose her composure so completely.Nancy met her with a cold, hard stare. "Veyo Solutions… It's got nothing to do with us anymore."She roughly told Sarah what happened.Sarah's heart missed a beat, and she felt her limbs go limp as her face grew pale. "Jayson couldn't have forgotten about something like that. Why didn't he warn you?"Nancy's head throbbed. She paused, thinking of Matt's words, then let out a long, weary sigh. "If Ariel hadn't insisted on fighting, Nexura Solutions could've been the backing Jayson had arranged for me."Matt had a point. Having Nexura Solutions invest in Veyo Solutions would h

    Ariel wasn't sure when Jayson had arrived. With one hand casually tucked in his pocket, Jayson appeared relaxed as he leaned against his car. His dark eyes were unreadable as they fixed on her. The intensity of his gaze made her pause mid-step.To Ariel, it felt odd that Jayson would come to see her at this precise moment.Jayson noticed her hesitation but seemed unfazed. He strode forward confidently."Is something the matter, Mr. Larkin?" Ariel asked, wary under his commanding presence, instinctively considering stepping back.But Jayson stopped just short of her. Bathed in soft moonlight, he lowered his gaze to meet hers."I suppose you have plenty of questions and want to hear the answers directly from me," he said calmly.He was right. The shareholders' meeting had left Ariel puzzled. Everything had unfolded so quickly and smoothly—and Jayson clearly had no intention of aiding Nancy's cause."How kind of you to make the effort," Ariel responded coolly, fixing him with a s

    "If you hadn't let Ariel gain the upper hand over the defamation incident, Nexura Solutions might never have slipped into her control back then."You could have become the owner of Nexura Solutions yourself. After all, Nexura and Veyo were closely collaborating on various projects. But now…" Matt shook his head in frustration.And on top of that, Nancy had even tried to strike Ariel just moments ago.Nancy's scattered thoughts dissolved upon hearing those words. Her mind went numb, confusion settling deep within as she reflected.Would things be completely different now if she hadn't provoked Ariel and the Faye Technologies team over the flight control system issue back then?Nancy knew better than anyone how Nexura Solutions eventually fell into Ariel's hands.That opportunity came only because Jayson had intervened to protect her. Everyone knew the facts—Nexura Solutions was handed over to Ariel in exchange for Nancy avoiding charges.Now, once again, Nancy seemed to be the on

    Nancy's eyes widened in realization. She remembered using those very words with Ariel during the celebration party for their project's success. Now, those same words were being turned against her, mocking and humiliating her.Her throat tightened, making it difficult to breathe.Desperate like a drowning person grasping for air, Nancy looked toward Jayson.Jayson's gaze shifted to Ariel. He pushed back his chair and stood. "It seems Ms. Walker has made up her mind. And there's no denying Nancy's misconduct in this matter. Let's conclude this here."Nancy's heart skipped a beat at Jayson's words, but she had no way to protest.Ariel had achieved her purpose, and she wasn't about to waste more time on this.It was a mere coincidence that Jayson had prepared the entrustment agreement. Ariel simply chose to use the opportunity to her advantage.Sarah and Nancy had been living off the money earned by plagiarizing Elena's work. Ariel saw no reason to show mercy to such unscrupulous pe

  • Dead at Heart   Chapter 511

    Nancy's eyes were as cold as ice.She had worked so hard after returning to Eldoria. She owned such a large company, and everything was moving in a good direction.But now… it was all ruined!Nancy's words made Chad furrow his brows. He felt Nancy was forcing her own problems onto others. If she hadn't made that mistake in the first place, how could things have ended up like this?Ariel looked at her and was suddenly overwhelmed by a sense of helplessness in their communication. She let out a bitter smile. "Nancy, I suddenly feel you're rather pitiful."Her calm words cut deep like a blade.Ariel no longer cared to argue or reason with Nancy. There was no point in debate because Nancy was not only blind but also stubborn.At this moment, Nancy couldn't help but start to break down. This was the worst possible situation for her.She hurriedly looked toward Jayson, who was sitting beside her.Jayson met her gaze. He slowly raised a hand, motioning for her to sit down—a calming g
