Dead at Heart Chapter 739
Ariel was caught off guard as Jayson pulled her close.Her body pressed against his chest. She could feel his searing heat and the gradually steadying beat of his heart."You were awake?" She tried to sit up, but Jayson wouldn't let go. When she spoke, his grip on her shoulder tightened even more.Brushing his cheek against hers, he replied softly, "No, I only woke up when I felt your presence."Upon hearing his hoarse voice, Ariel realized just how bad he must be feeling. His warmth alone was almost overwhelming."Georgia said you were in bad shape. Eat the oatmeal, take your medicine, and then go back to sleep."Being held like this, Ariel couldn't move at all. Lying against him so closely stirred a strange mix of feelings in her.Jayson remained silent, making no move to let her go."Jayson?" she called softly.He still didn't respond.Ariel pushed against his chest again, trying to free herself. "Jayson, don't play dead."Finally, he nuzzled against her neck and replied,

Ariel was right. Lucas wasn't going to let the Sanderson family off the hook. Since that was the case, he didn't mind fanning the flames a little more.…Ariel made her way to the marital home.The moment she walked in, Georgia rushed over, unloading a flood of words she seemed to have been holding back for a long time. "Mrs. Larkin, you should really go check on Mr. Larkin. He won't let me tell you, but I can tell he's not doing well. He's been like that for quite some time."Occasionally, when I stayed up at night, I'd see him in the study in the early hours, still awake. No one can keep that up. Yesterday, he came back already feeling sick. He took some medicine, but there's still no improvement today."Georgia didn't understand what Jayson was insisting on. She said she would ask Ariel to come stay with him, but he refused, saying he would be fine after a while.Wouldn't it be better to have Ariel by his side?"I'll go see him," Ariel said. She already had a good idea why Ja

Ariel didn't really have any special feelings about Lucas' current attitude. She shook her head calmly. "We're even, Lucas. I don't care about any of that stuff anymore. Whether you knew or misunderstood, it doesn't matter to me."Her indifferent tone made Lucas' expression flicker. "How can you not blame me? I came here today to tell you that Morgan's in big trouble. Sanderson Group is being pressured by multiple companies. They're trying to force a buyout and have driven the stock price to the floor. It won't last long. You should know this was all Jayson's doing. He's going all out against Morgan."Lucas didn't even dare ask about Ariel's health. He just wanted to avoid the topic for now. As long as Ariel showed she needed him, he would do anything for her."So?" Ariel asked."Morgan's your biological father, but Jayson doesn't seem to care about that. He doesn't even care about your feelings," Lucas said.Ariel gave a small smile. "Do you know how Morgan treated me? You don't

Ariel guessed those calls might have something to do with Morgan as well.She grabbed Kate's phone, blocked his number, and said, "Grandma, don't pick up any unknown calls from now on. The Sanderson family might be in some trouble lately. We're staying out of it."Kate didn't know the details, but she trusted Ariel and nodded.Ariel herself didn't know the full situation with the Sandersons either, but if Jayson was involved, it probably wasn't a minor issue.She got up to go outside for some fresh air. Just as she reached the door, her phone rang. It was Janice calling.Janice's excitement was practically audible through the line. "I just heard some gossip! It's totally insane!"Ariel looked up at the clear autumn sky and tugged her collar closer. "What is it?""Cecilia's in big trouble! I heard this from my friend. She's apparently been forcibly sent to a rehab facility, and she's going to be in there for a long time! Can you believe it? You said she's the daughter of some top
Dead at Heart Chapter 735
Cecilia was completely shattered by what was happening. She couldn't wrap her head around it. How could someone like her end up in a place like this?She came from the best background imaginable. Stanley held a powerful position, and Kristen was one of the few prominent businesswomen in Croinia. So why did she have to end up like this?She clutched Samson's sleeve through the bars. Her eyes rimmed red as she asked, "You must have thought of something, right? Samson, you know me. I can't survive in a place like that! It's torture! And three years of it? No way I'll survive that!"Cecilia had never been this afraid in her entire life.She never imagined she would fall this hard over something like this. If the person who found out about her drug use hadn't been Jayson, she might have gotten away with it.But right before leaving Croinia for her art exhibition, Jayson had gotten under her skin. That night, she indulged herself and got caught red-handed.Samson glanced down at her ha

Jayson didn't insist on personally overseeing Cecilia's admission to a rehabilitation facility. Instead, he gave his word to suppress the news first to keep the damage contained.Stanley understood immediately. This was Jayson offering him a way out.After such a hardline stance, this was a rare concession.Even so, Stanley felt unbearably heavy-hearted. Not because of Jayson's threat, but because of how deeply it pained him to see Cecilia end up like this."Well, then. I won't take up more of your time." Jayson didn't bother staying for pleasantries.As Samson watched him go, his gaze turned dark and unreadable.Who would have thought that the same Jayson who had just been so ruthless could appear this polite now?It seemed like things had been settled, as if neither side had anything left to worry about.But Yeager Group had become collateral damage. It had taken a heavy hit because of this mess.Samson followed Jayson out the door. Just before Jayson got into the car, Samso
