Chapter 154

Author: Cloud Drop
After dinner, she sat on the bed and turned on the TV, casually flipping through channels. After going through them all without finding anything interesting, she randomly stopped on a romantic drama.

She really wasn't clear on what the show was about—her mind wasn't focused on it. She just left the TV sound on while her thoughts drifted elsewhere.

Her phone buzzed with a message from Kent, saying that Archer had prepared some local snacks nearby, all things she liked to eat.

She felt that Kent's message was basically conveying Archer's intentions—Archer was asking her to come over.

Aria looked at her watch—it was already 9:25 PM. She got off the bed, walked to the door, pulled out her room key, and left her room, standing in front of the adjacent door.

Aria rang the doorbell.

After the doorbell rang, no one came to open the door for a while. She wondered if he had gone out for something, or if Kent had sent the wrong message.

She pressed the doorbell again, thinking that if no o

    Sophia completely avoided mentioning the online scandal, acting as if she knew nothing about it, as if she were completely innocent.Archer's lips curved slightly, but he said nothing.Instead, it was Aria who looked at Sophia in disbelief, unable to believe that such twisted logic and righteous-sounding words were coming from her childhood friend's mouth!She had always trusted Sophia, so even after the Jackson family's troubles, though she had cut contact with everyone else, she had still maintained contact with Sophia.She never expected to be splashed with such dirty water at this moment!Aria thought about how Sophia had asked in front of Larry about her coming out of Archer's room, about Sophia appearing at Archer's door the second night with all those implications, and her ears kept echoing with the words Sophia had just spoken.Aria had never felt such disappointment. A friend's betrayal and frame-up was like an invisible knife stabbing directly into her heart, making her

    She didn't care how ugly Larry's expression would become. With all these incidents erupting, Aria had no intention of being polite to Larry anymore.Moreover... Archer couldn't possibly have leaked the news about the two similar designs. Only people from Walker Industries or Lucy could have exposed this matter.They were deliberately trying to sabotage her.Aria's eyes darkened, and when she received Christina's comforting phone call, she only managed a smile.She knew she was innocent—not just anyone could falsely accuse her.......That afternoon, Aria went to Duncan Industries at the agreed time.Kent sighed and said, “Mr. Duncan started handling this matter as soon as he returned. Mr. Luther also came because of this incident. The Walker Industries people and Mr. Luther are all inside. But since you're innocent, Duncan Industries won't let anyone falsely accuse you."I'll also handle the online drama.”Kent was smart—he had a pretty good idea of who had orchestrated the bi

    "How is that possible!"The sudden outburst made everyone else in the office turn to look at her.Aria glanced around, hurriedly left the office, and went to the stairwell. Her body suddenly went weak, and she leaned against the cold wall.Only then did she realize she was trembling all over, not knowing where she had found the strength to walk here."It's impossible!" Aria said again weakly, unconsciously gripping her phone tighter.On the other end of the call, Archer looked at the two nearly identical design plans laid out before him, his slender fingers with distinct knuckles lightly tapping the back of his phone. "I believe you, of course, but you'll still need to come in this afternoon. Walker Industries' representatives will be here too. Whatever the issue is, we'll discuss it face to face."Aria nodded, but in her distraction forgot that Archer couldn't see her through the phone.After they arranged a time, Aria lowered her hand holding the phone, slid down the wall with

    If that were really the case, and now that Aria was also participating in the bidding, could the design still be used?Or... it could maximize benefits.Thinking about Larry's ambiguous relationship with Sophia, Lucy sneered.She had found someone to take the fall.......The Bros Groupchat.Archer: Are you guys even married? Have a lovely and sweet wife? @everyoneThis group chat included Archer and several close friends. It was originally created by Anson to promote his album, and its purpose was occasional gossip and venting—for instance, Anson frequently shared entertainment industry dirt while others just watched the drama unfold.But this time, Archer had taken the unprecedented step of actively posting and @-ing everyone.People started appearing, then burst into laughter after seeing Archer's message.Ethan: Archer, can you stop being such a show-off?Archer: I'm not showing off, but you're definitely a lonely single dog.This was directed at Ethan, the single dog.

    Aria's interrogation was sharp and merciless, almost tearing away Larry's last shred of dignity."Don't be ridiculous. This isn't love at all—it's just your excuse to cover up your promiscuous ways."With or without Linda, you would have been the same."She rendered her final judgment, reducing him to worthless nothing.For a moment, Larry actually forgot that he had come to question Aria—why was he the one being questioned and breaking out in cold sweats?It was as if his final mask of pretense had been stripped away.Everything was exposed before Aria.His heart was in complete chaos."Clap, clap, clap."Suddenly someone was applauding."Well said, Ms. Jackson."It was Kent.He hadn't slept well last night and had wandered down early this morning. He'd found a corner spot to peel and eat shrimp when he saw Larry dragging Aria to the corner to start his manipulation. Kent's temper flared instantly—he'd almost rushed out to pin Larry to the ground again. But before he could

    "Aria Jackson.”Larry's eyes were red, his voice hoarse."You walked away so easily—what about me? What am I, left behind in the same place?"All those years of feelings between us, did you just discard them so effortlessly?"Larry seemed about to say something more in his agitation, but Aria calmly interrupted him."If I don't discard them, should I hold onto those useless naive memories for the rest of my life?"Larry, you know you took up my entire youth.""Even if those memories were sweet once, after our marriage, they've long since soured. They're so bitter I don't want another taste."Do you think you're still the Larry from our teenage years?"That boy who once loved me, who promised his heart belonged only to me and would always protect me—he died long ago in my memories!"The Larry of now is selfish, arrogant, proud, cold, promiscuous yet heartless!"Do you deserve to bring up the past!
