Chapter 447

Auteur: Cloud Drop
Aria’s smile deepened. Her finger, still caught between his lips, gave a playful curl, brushing lightly against his lower lip. It was warm. Soft. Softer than she ever expected from someone who always looked so stern.

Archer’s gaze darkened. “You’re the only one who’s ever gotten away with taking advantage of me.”

She let out a quiet scoff. “Please. I’m not the only one cashing in here. Need I remind you who stole a kiss the first chance he got?”

The memory made her half amused, half exasperated.

His smile slowly faded, replaced by a look so intense it made her breath catch. Those deep black eyes held layers of emotion, locked on her flushed face. Her skin looked impossibly smooth under the faint blush, like fine porcelain.

He pressed her hand to his cheek and lowered his head, inch by inch, until his warm breath skimmed across her skin.

Her breathing faltered—sometimes forgetting to inhale, sometimes dragging in quick, shallow gasps. His face drew closer, impossibly handsome in t

    “Any leads?” Mark answered the call straight to the point.As he listened, his brow furrowed deeper and deeper.“What about the company’s legal representative?” His voice dropped into a low, sharp register.“…I see. Find out as soon as you can,” he said, then after a pause added, “And if possible, dig into what Archer was up to that year.”…That same evening, Sophia Walker was at a high school reunion. They were meeting in Oliver’s private room at the Grandview, since he was the only one who had a VIP membership there. The room wasn’t as lavish as Archer’s suite, but it was still more than enough for them.When the group stepped out and turned the corner, Sophia spotted Mark in the hallway. He had just finished his call and wasn’t going back to his room right away. Instead, he leaned against the wall, lit a cigarette, and took a long drag.Sophia lowered her eyes slightly and whispered to her friend, “I’m going to say hi.”She walked toward him, but Mark didn’t seem to notice.

    “Our idea is to hold the wedding at the Grandview, make it grand and lively. What do you all think? Just say what’s on your mind, and we’ll work it out together.”“I don’t have any special requests,” Rachel said steadily. “I only want Aria to marry with dignity. No sneaking off to get married quietly, no feeling like she’s been shortchanged.”“Of course!” Marianne nodded eagerly, then pulled a planner out of her purse.“Rachel, I’ve already marked a few dates inside. Take a look,” Marianne said, passing the book to Grace, who handed it across to Rachel.As Rachel flipped through the pages, Marianne went on, “Once we settle on a date, we’ll clear out the Grandview for the day—close it to the public and book the whole place.”“Book the Grandview? You’re throwing money around,” Grandpa Duncan huffed, glaring at her.“So what if I am? My grandson’s getting married! We’ll do it with style. I’m even thinking we’ll get a helicopter for aerial shots!” Marianne shot right back, voice risi

    Rachel didn’t catch the slip in Grace’s words. She didn’t notice how much weight that single word ‘again’ carried. Instead, she thought Grace was trying to be kind. She quickly reached out, hesitated only a moment, then clasped Grace’s hand.Grace stiffened, nerves tightening in her chest. She could only hope that when the Jacksons eventually learned the truth, they would still treat her this warmly.Marianne, watching the exchange, nodded in satisfaction. “Have you ordered yet?”“Grandview prepared a set menu for us,” Archer replied smoothly. “It’s already arranged.”Marianne beamed. “What a blessing this is. I used to wonder which young man would be lucky enough to marry Aria. I never imagined it would be my eldest grandson who brought her home as his bride.” Her face glowed with pride, almost smug.Rachel had no idea how to respond, but just then the door swung open.“Grandpa, Grandma, sorry we’re late,” Fifi chirped, her tone bright and casual.Yvette’s heart sank. She had b

    The families agreed to meet for lunch on Saturday at Grandview, in one of the VIP rooms that Archer usually used.That morning, Archer brought Aria back to her parents’ house. They stayed for a little while, and when it was close to noon, he drove James and Rachel with them to the restaurant.As soon as they got out of the car, they spotted Anson, who had just rushed back from set. Of course he wouldn’t miss something like this.He touched his nose and called out politely, “Hello, Mrs. Jackson.”Rachel smiled warmly and nodded back.Archer held Aria’s hand with complete confidence. “Mom, let’s go inside.”Rachel had gotten used to Archer calling her “Mom” after weeks of his persistence. But for Anson, it was the first time he’d heard it, and it left him stunned. He couldn’t remember Archer ever calling their own mother “Mom,” yet here he was addressing Rachel that way like it was the most natural thing in the world. The whole thing felt off, almost unreal.Inside the VIP room, C

    “Hm?” Archer heard a trace of shyness in her voice. He had no idea what she was about to say, but figured it was something he’d enjoy hearing. He straightened up in his chair, turning his back to Mark so that he was facing the floor-to-ceiling window. Through its reflection, he slowly adjusted his suit jacket.“Sorry I didn’t say goodbye this morning. And…I love you.”Aria blurted it out in one breath. Before Archer could respond, she hung up.It wasn’t the first time she had told him that, but her heart still raced afterward, like she had just finished a hundred-meter sprint. Sometimes, random, anxious thoughts would creep into her mind—like how she had snapped at Archer earlier without saying goodbye.What if something happened to him on the way to work? What if she never got another chance to tell him goodbye? If the last thing he saw was her angry face, how much would she regret it?It was ridiculous, like something out of a TV drama—but she made a mental note anyway: even if

    Mark knew the truth. If nothing else, just in terms of shares, Archer held more than anyone else in the company. Add in Aaron and Anson, who were firmly on his side, and together, the three of them practically made the Duncan Industries a one–family show.If Archer wanted him gone—whether that meant firing him or sending him to the South Pole—no one could stop him.Fuming, Mark’s mind went blank for a moment, but the sharp trill of a ringtone cut through his anger. Archer glanced at the caller ID, and a faint smile touched his eyes.He didn’t bother stepping away. Right in front of Mark, he answered.“It’s me,” he said.On the other end came Aria’s soft, slightly apologetic voice.“Mm.” Archer’s lips curved, his tone laced with warmth.Even with her not physically there, just hearing her voice was enough to make him stub out his cigarette and set it in the ashtray.It was work hours, and she was worried she might be interrupting. But she had wanted to call him the moment she co
