Chapter 674

Author: Tightrope
Samson was holding a file, clearly on his way to the data center.

The moment he saw Ariel, he heaved a sigh of relief and quickened his pace toward her. Frowning, he stared at her. "You've been gone eight days. They said you took leave. Did something happen?"

His sharp features were shadowed with concern as he studied her.

Ariel met his gaze, while her thoughts stirred beneath the surface.

"I had a miscarriage, so I took some time to recover." This time, she kept nothing back and dropped the bombshell news.

Painful as the truth was, she didn't flinch as she said it. She just looked at Samson openly.

His gaze flickered. Surprise hit first, then stiffness, before his expression settled into something solemn. "How could that happen? What caused it?"

He pressed his lips together. "Actually, I had already heard from Cecilia that you were pregnant. You know it wasn't easy for me to accept, so I could only pretend I didn't know. But what you're going through…"

Ariel's eyes were clear,

    Alicia noticed the bright smile on Janice's face. She beamed as she held out the carefully chosen gifts, waiting for Janice to accept them. But her words cut into Janice's heart like a knife.Janice subconsciously glanced at Wade, who stood just behind Alicia. It turned out he had forgotten her birthday. Somehow, it had ended up with Alicia preparing a gift on Wade's behalf.Even after a while, Janice still didn't reach out to take the gifts.Alicia looked puzzled and slightly embarrassed. Glancing around awkwardly, she asked in a soft voice, "Do you not like them?"Wade immediately sensed Alicia's discomfort. After all, she had gone to the trouble of picking out those gifts, and Janice's hesitation was making things awkward.He looked at Janice. "Allie spent a lot of time choosing those. You should take them. She even prepared one on my behalf."Moreover, he didn't want Alicia to feel embarrassed in front of everyone. Ariel frowned slightly. To her, Wade's words sounded like

    It was Janice's birthday today. Since they had to deal with work first, they could only plan her birthday celebration later in the day.Janice subconsciously nodded, and then her eyes lit up as a thought crossed her mind. Ariel caught on immediately and raised a brow. "That's right—your fiance is back. Have you two made any plans?"Janice shook her head, her expression dimming. "I haven't heard from him. I'm not even sure if he remembers my birthday."Before Wade went abroad, he used to celebrate Janice's birthday with her every year.Ariel patted her lightly on the head. "He will. Anyway, he's back in Croinia now. Even if he did forget, just remind him and tell him you want to celebrate together."Janice's face brightened. "You're right! It's Sunday anyway—he must be free."Ariel smiled, amused by how quickly Janice's mood turned cheerful again."Have all the guests arrived?" Ariel asked.Janice shook her head. "Nope, but Chad is already talking to some of them in the room."

    Anyone could tell there would be consequences for the stunt certain board members had pulled during the recent board meeting. When Jayson arrived at the office, he happened to run into Shane, who was there on business.Shane instinctively averted his gaze before glancing at Jayson. "Jayson, are you feeling better now?"Jayson entered the elevator. "Thanks for your concern. I've pretty much achieved full recovery.""I didn't get the chance to visit you at the hospital. I've been really busy lately. I hope you don't mind."Shane spoke as if nothing had happened during Jayson's absence.Jayson turned the wedding ring on his finger slowly. His tone was flat. "I understand how busy you are, of course. After all, it must be difficult to gain more power and secure more projects when I'm around."The smile on Shane's face froze, and a cold glint flashed in his eyes.Jayson acted as if he hadn't noticed. His calm voice carried a subtle edge. "You might not be up to date with what's bee

    Ariel stared at the table lamp beside her as she imagined what their daughter might look like. Would she resemble her more, or Jayson?People often said daughters tended to take after their fathers.At that thought, Ariel quietly lifted her gaze to study Jayson's side profile again.Even under the dim light, his sharp features stood out clearly. He had a tall, straight nose, and the small mole on the bridge only added to his charm. His double eyelids made his eyes even more captivating, while his slightly pale complexion accentuated the soft red of his lips. Altogether, Jayson's face seemed almost impossibly perfect—like something crafted by divine hands.Ariel had always known that it would be nearly impossible to find another man as handsome as Jayson. If their daughter took after him, she would have no complaints.Her gaze lingered on his face, eventually settling on his lips.A few seconds later, her back stiffened, and she quickly looked away, feeling her ears grow hot.I

    Ariel could tell that Jayson was doing this on purpose. He had deliberately interrupted her meeting just now.She got up and walked over to the bed, deciding to overlook Jayson's "mischievous" behavior. Bending forward, she tugged at his collar to check the area where he had been injured.There was nothing unusual. They no longer needed to change his dressings frequently; Ariel just had to remind him to apply the scar-preventing ointment regularly."Didn't you say you wanted to take a bath? Aren't you getting up?" Ariel's tone remained calm, her expression composed.Jayson narrowed his eyes. "Are you really going to help me with that?""Weren't you the one who said you wanted me to?"Jayson pressed his tongue lightly against his lower gum and leaned comfortably against the pillow. "Did you really think I'm so shameless that I'd make someone who just had major surgery help me bathe? I was only trying to remind you that even though you're feeling better, you still need to rest. You

    This time, Ariel could truly feel Jayson's sincerity. He was the one who had given her new hope.…Jayson's recovery was progressing well. He had always been strong and resilient, which made healing faster for him.That afternoon, Ariel received a message from her department at the base—a notice about her new position.She had just been promoted and would now be leading a team of senior engineers in the research department. There were also follow-up tasks she needed to handle accordingly.Ariel hadn't informed her superiors about her illness or the surgery she had undergone. Their team had been granted a short break after completing the first phase of the project.In less than two weeks, they would begin the second phase of research. By then, she would have rested enough to recover fully. After all, her uterus had been removed through laparoscopic surgery, which required only a small incision and a relatively short healing time.That evening, Ariel took a shower in one of the gu
