Chapter 194

Author: Cloud Drop
Archer's words seemed to completely wake Aria up.

She looked stunned for a moment, as if unable to accept this truth.

After a pause, she gave a bitter smile.

"You're right, aren't you?"

She had misjudged someone. She'd been too naive, underestimating Sophia.

"If Sophia doesn't care about you, you don't need to care about her either. Getting upset over someone like that is a bit foolish." Archer looked at her and sighed, somewhat helplessly.

Aria was smart, but sometimes she was too sentimental—otherwise she wouldn't have stayed with the Spencer family so long, letting them manipulate her with guilt and obligation.

"After something like this, you don't need to consider her a friend anymore." Aria absorbed Archer's words.

"I know. I won't have any relationship with Sophia going forward."

Sophia was no longer her friend.

Actually, Aria had already figured most of this out last night when she was drunk.

Aria valued relationships deeply, but her heart could also turn cold. Once s

    "Aria." Archer's eyes darkened slightly as he looked at his little wife, his expression becoming somewhat strange upon hearing her call him cute.Probably not many mature men would appreciate being called cute—or perhaps that couldn't even be considered a compliment."I was trying to compliment you."She seemed to anticipate what Archer was about to say, her eyes crinkling with laughter."Haven't you ever heard that saying?""What saying?""When you think someone is cute, it means you're falling for them." Aria was trying to express her affection for Archer.Archer paused, "I've only heard that when someone has no redeeming qualities, you give them the empty compliment of being 'cute.'"Aria: "..." That was an angle she'd never considered."But you said that's when someone has no good qualities—and you have plenty of good qualities."Archer raised an eyebrow, tightening his hold on her, "So what are my good qualities?"His directness made Aria laugh."Obviously, you're hand

    Being able to sense his unhappiness and even making the effort to comfort him at a moment like this—wasn't that a form of caring in itself?"So you really were unhappy because of me." Aria looked at him, disappointment evident in her voice.Archer paused as Aria continued. "I know I've done so many things wrong.""You're being too hard on yourself," Archer replied."I'm just stating facts." Aria met his gaze. "I never really understood what my role should be after marrying you.""You asked me to marry you—said it would be your only marriage. On our wedding day, you immediately introduced me to the family patriarch. You knew I'd been hurt, so you drafted a marriage agreement that completely protected me. You followed every tradition, sending me clear signals from the beginning.""You were telling me that you cared about me, that marrying me meant seeing me as your partner in life, not just business.""You probably wanted to be part of my world too—to meet my friends, learn about

    Archer: "..."His chest felt like tiny flames had been lit that couldn't be extinguished.And it was the woman in front of him who had set those fires."Aria, who taught you all this?"He didn't think Aria could manage this on her own—someone who blushed just from holding hands was now being so forward, even seeming worried he might leave.The tips of Aria's ears turned red."Answer me." The man rubbed her reddened ears, waiting for her response.Aria made a small sound, "Crystal sent me some novel screenshots. I thought they were pretty interesting and might work on you."Crystal sent them?Archer raised an eyebrow. Aria couldn't help but throw her best friend under the bus."Crystal loves reading billionaire romance novels when she's bored, and... she ships us as a couple too."A soft laugh seemed to escape from Archer's throat, "Your friend sounds great."If Crystal knew she was being praised by Archer for reading novels, sharing romantic scenes, and shipping them as a c

    Archer looked at his smiling little wife, his Adam's apple bobbing as his voice took on a slight rasp."What are you up to?"Aria shook her head. "I'm not up to anything. I just want to talk with you."He lowered his gaze from the documents, those dark eyes growing even more intense as they fixed on her, as if searching for some deeper meaning."What do you want to say?" Archer asked.Aria's fingers danced across the desk surface, two of them walking like tiny feet—tap, tap, tap—until they reached his hand. Then those same fingers caught his sleeve, giving it the gentlest shake.Such a simple gesture, light as a leaf drifting onto a frozen lake's surface, yet somehow that single leaf seemed to herald spring's arrival. The endless ice and snow appeared to melt in that instant, sunlight breaking through to dance across the water in shimmering waves.Archer caught her wandering hand, his voice rough. "What are you up to?"He looked serious enough, but having seen how cold and ster

    He wasn't there when she got married—he wasn't even in the country.So Aria thought Archer must have developed other feelings after having contact with her during those three years, and later coincidentally learned about that rather warm memory they shared in childhood.Henry also said that Archer would specially learn to make pastries at home because she liked mont blanc cakes. But while the Duncan family's eldest son was great at cooking, his dessert-making skills seemed to be completely switched off. The first time, the mont blanc cake turned into mush. The second time it was burnt on the outside and raw inside—so charred on the outside that people might mistake it for chocolate-flavored cake. Fortunately, Archer gave up on learning to make mont blanc cakes himself and went to that shop at dawn, worried he wouldn't be able to get her favorite pastries if he waited until morning.This was something Archer would do.Someone like Archer... who was clearly cold toward outsiders, alw
