Chapter 158

Penulis: Cloud Drop
Aria shook her head. "It's nothing."

Archer's lips curved upward slightly.

Aria's phone buzzed.

She pulled it out to find a text message from Kent: "Ma'am, stop staring at our boss!"

Aria pressed her lips together, speechless.

Annoyed, she shoved her phone back into her pocket without replying to Kent's message.

A few seconds later, her phone buzzed again.

Another text from Kent: "Though you don't have to completely ignore him either."

"..."

Kent definitely had some issues.

Aria continued to ignore him.

But her frequent phone-checking caught others' attention.

Sarah smiled at Aria. "Ms. Jackson, you keep checking your phone. Texting with your boyfriend?"

Sarah's smile was bright but somewhat malicious, implying that Aria was chatting with someone during work hours instead of focusing.

"No, my phone might have a virus. It keeps getting spam messages." Aria said expressionlessly.

Kent: "..."

After a while, Aria received another text from Kent: "QWQ Ma'am I'm not spam QW

    "Even when you wanted a side piece, you never came to me—why? You know I would've been fine with that. The Walker family could still help you, but instead you went with Lucy. What does that make me? After all these years, after everything I've done for you—what was it all for? Larry, you've made me look like a complete fool!""Sophia, I told you clearly from the start—sleeping with you was just for fun. You accepted that, didn't you? So what's this about now?" Larry said impatiently.Reeking of alcohol, his tone was full of irritation."Because you're about to go crazy and do something stupid for Lucy again!" Sophia screamed, stretching her neck forward and shooting Larry a look full of hate. "I could live with you marrying Aria, but after all this time, you picked Lucy, divorced Aria for her, and got yourself thrown out of Spencer Corporation—I can't take it! If you can be with Lucy, why not me?"“I don’t care if you can’t take it. Don't you get it? If you couldn't do anything for

    "Aria, if you have any conscience left, log into your account right now and explain that this whole mess has nothing to do with Lucy—that it was Walker Industries' Sarah who contacted you to smear Lucy! As long as you speak up, those idiots online will definitely believe you!"He had rushed here so desperately, all just to clear Lucy's name.Aria couldn't believe this man had completely lost his mind.She stepped back several paces, not bothering to hide the ice in her stare."You'd be better off finding Sarah and bribing her to change her story."Her blunt refusal turned Larry's face dark, though he had to admit it wasn't a bad idea.Sarah had been fired by Walker Industries and would struggle to find decent work—she'd be desperate for money. Pay her enough, and she'd definitely change her story for the right price. That would clear Lucy's name too.Upstairs, Sophia opened the window with a clear view of both of them. She pulled out her phone, zoomed in, and rapidly snapped sev

    Downstairs, she immediately spotted Larry's car parked outside the apartment building.He stood in front of the car, leaning against the door with his hands in his pockets, reeking of alcohol and looking thoroughly dejected.Aria wasn't sure why Larry wanted to see her. She watched him from a distance for a moment before gradually walking closer.The nearer she got, the more she noticed Larry's grim expression—something was clearly wrong.Under the dim lighting, he kept his head down, his features shrouded in shadow."What do you want?" Aria's voice was cold.She didn't want to see Larry at all—coming downstairs was simply to avoid further contact with Sophia."I heard... Archer gave you the contract." Larry's voice was low, his expression tense.He only said this one sentence, but the implications were obvious.Aria's eyes narrowed as she fought to control her anger, her voice turning ice-cold, "You still think I slept my way to this contract?"No matter how much she explain

    Sophia's face wore an expression of worry and regret, but whether it was due to her own growing bias or something else, Aria could no longer see sincerity in Sophia's expression—only hypocrisy."Aria, I know you haven't forgiven me yet. It was my distrust today that disappointed you." Sophia spoke up. "It's hot outside. Can we go inside to talk?"Aria looked at her expressionlessly for a moment, ultimately not choosing to break things off immediately. She turned and went upstairs without a word.Sophia hurried to follow behind her, walking carefully.Once inside, Aria didn't take off her coat or sit down, clearly not wanting Sophia to stay long."Sorry, I just got back. I haven’t packed the house yet.“"It's fine. I won't disturb you for long." Sophia smiled awkwardly and stepped forward to affectionately grasp Aria's hands. "Aria, I misunderstood you today. I'm truly sorry. The thing is, Sarah has been quite senior at our company and has handled many big projects. I've always tr

    She put on a pitiful act, as if she knew nothing from beginning to end, as if she was the only innocent one in the entire affair.The bad ones were Aria, Sophia, the people who exposed her, and the netizens hurling abuse online—not her.Why did Aria have to participate in this project out of nowhere? She must have wanted revenge on the Spencer family. She clearly had an unclear relationship with Archer and harbored ill intentions.Sophia was even more greedy and covetous. For the sake of the project, she slandered Aria, bought designs from her, then exposed her and shifted all the blame onto her.She was the most pitiful one.The truth was that she had actively stolen the designs to make a name for herself. Only after Aria participated did she become afraid and want to scheme against Sophia while also making some money, so she sold them to Sophia. From beginning to end, she was not innocent.But with her embellished story to Larry, she became the poor victim instead.Larry belie

    The woman was clearly intimidated by her glare and froze for a moment.After a brief daze, Lucy had already walked over and pulled her aside."Larry and I have things to discuss. Get out."With that, Lucy pulled out a stack of cash from her bag and threw it on the table.She carried cash because she often came to nightclubs looking for Larry. Using cards or checks would cost much more, while cash looked intimidating even though it was only a few thousand dollars.The woman sized her up, smiled as she collected the money, but showed no reluctance when her gaze fell on Larry's face.After the woman left, only she and Larry remained in the private room.Larry didn't seem to care who was beside him, continuing to pour and drink by himself.Looking at his state, he clearly seemed hurt. She only needed to think for a moment to know who had hurt Larry.Who else could it be but Aria?Lucy's heart felt like it was being pricked by countless needles, stabbing at her chest, but she stil
