Chapter 696

Author: Tightrope
Samson's expression hardened almost instantly at Ariel's words. He hadn't expected something like that to have happened in the past.

Almost everyone in the conference room looked shocked or bewildered after hearing what Ariel revealed.

The U.N2, developed by Ariel, marked the beginning of a new era in reconnaissance and strike drones. It showcased their excellence in developing cutting-edge technology.

With such an achievement under her name, the government likely wouldn't impose severe punishment even if Ariel had falsified data.

In other words, as long as she hadn't betrayed the country, Ariel would always be respected and highly regarded as the developer of the U.N2.

Now, however, Ariel was saying that Jayson had contributed to the creation of the U.N2.

In truth, Ariel had only learned of this recently. After conducting several tests and speaking with Eric a few times, she discovered that Jayson had established his materials company much earlier than she thought.

Back then, s

    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

    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

    Even Stanley was taken aback.He knew Cecilia well.She had been pampered since childhood, born into privilege and raised in comfort, which naturally made her arrogant and willful. She got whatever she wanted and had never known hardship. People fawned over her everywhere she went.And now, Jayson was forcing her into a rehabilitation facility?That would be a devastating blow to her, to both her pride and her mind. It would be no different from completely humiliating her.Jayson, of course, understood that perfectly.Without him, someone like Cecilia would glide through life unscathed. That kind of place would never touch her. Even if this scandal had broken on its own later, she would have emerged unscathed without so much as a stain on her reputation.But he wasn't giving her an out. He was going to strike where it hurt most.He ignored Samson and looked straight at Stanley. "Of course, there's a condition. During these three years, neither the Pryce family nor the Ulmer fam

    Someone had come out to welcome Jayson.Stanley had just returned from overseas. Lately, he had been swamped with work and barely spent time in Croinia.He had already heard about the news involving Cecilia. He had only just landed when he learned that she had been taken into custody.And now, Jayson showed up out of the blue.As Jayson stepped in through the foyer, Stanley sized him up carefully. He couldn't deny that Jayson had a commanding presence and flawless looks.He knew that Cecilia had a thing for Jayson, but unfortunately, she wasn't remotely equipped to handle someone like him."Please, Mr. Larkin, have a seat." Stanley had someone make coffee.Jayson nodded and sat down.But no sooner had he settled than Samson arrived.Samson's expression darkened when he saw Jayson already there. He couldn't believe that Jayson actually came straight to see Stanley.That was… sneaky.Yeager Group was taking a hit. Without Jayson's interference, it would never have faced such a

    Ariel had just sat down at the dining table when she saw Jayson's follow request on her phone.Leonard was serving her a bowl of oatmeal."Today it's oatmeal with extra nuts and berries. You need to keep your nutrition up before the surgery. Any operation will take a toll on your strength, so make sure your body is well-prepared." Leonard wasn't married, so he had always treated Ariel like his own child.Now that she was battling cancer, he understood just how hard it could be. He had endured it himself, and it hadn't been easy. He couldn't imagine how someone as fragile as Ariel could cope."I can do it myself, Uncle Leo." Ariel tore her gaze from her phone and reached for the bowl he offered."Mr. Larkin texted you?" Leonard asked, noticing the message on her phone.He wasn't exactly opposed to Jayson. If anything, he admired him.Putting emotions aside, Leonard thought Jayson was one of the best among the younger generation.Ariel just smiled without saying anything.Leonar
