Chapter 65

작가: Cloud Drop
"Isn't this what you've been waiting for? Waiting to marry into the Spencer family by using a child as leverage?"

Aria looked at Lucy.

She appeared pitiful, with a pale face and tears in her eyes, like a victimized fallen girl.

But Aria knew it was all an act.

Lucy wasn't crying inside. Through that pitiful yet false facade, Aria could see her mocking, cold-hearted interior.

Aria reached out and gripped Lucy's chin, leaning in close. Lucy's breathing became uneven as she whimpered, "Aria...

"Putting on an act in front of me is truly ridiculous.

"You don't need to get rid of the baby. Have the child, future Mrs. Spencer.

"You know it well—now that you're carrying his child, he'll protect you."

Each word Aria spoke hit the mark, revealing Lucy's true intentions.

"Enough! Aria! This is my fault. Stop with your sarcastic comments!"

Larry couldn't stand it anymore and helped Lucy up from the floor, turning angrily toward Aria.

Aria waved her hand dismissively, "You're free to de

    “Why is it okay for Aria, but not for me?” Mandy snapped.Mr. Libson let out a short, mocking laugh. “Do you really think Aria was the one who went after Archer? That’s exactly what I mean when I say people have different fates. It was him who chose her.”He leaned back in his chair and continued, “You think our firm could’ve landed the Duncan Industries account on our own? He only handed us that deal because he knew Aria comes by to visit Christina often. That was his way of throwing us a bone.”“Because of Aria, Archer nearly shut Horizon down altogether. Do you really think a man like that is someone you can afford to provoke?” Mr. Libson’s tone turned colder. “If I hadn’t stepped in, you wouldn’t even have a job right now. With his connections, if he wanted to blacklist you from the industry, you wouldn’t get hired anywhere—no matter how qualified you are. You think you’d survive in this field?“I’m moving you to the engineering department to let things cool off. If Archer even

    Christina had a point. Aria nodded just as Mandy walked into the office, swiping her badge at the door. Aria and Christina quickly fell silent and pretended to focus on work.Still, they both kept sneaking glances at Mandy over their monitors, watching for any reaction. Mandy seemed to be in a great mood, humming to herself as she bent down to power up the desktop tower beneath her desk.A few moments later, her computer chimed with the startup sound. Aria and Christina leaned in slightly, eyes glued to her as she opened her email. They couldn’t see her face, but they could hear the rapid clicks of her mouse.Then suddenly, Mandy shot to her feet. Her face had gone pale with fury, and she stormed out of the office without a word.Aria and Christina looked at each other in surprise.Christina quietly rolled her chair over. “You think this might be Archer’s doing?”“What does this have to do with him?” Aria asked, confused.“You didn’t see it yesterday,” Christina said in a low vo

    Earlier, when Aria had opened the door to get out of the car, she’d been pulled back so suddenly by Archer that she completely forgot the door was still wide open.Now, looking at it—still swinging open—she realized with horror that anyone passing by must’ve seen the way he kissed her.Heat rushed to her face. She shut her eyes tightly, wanting to disappear into the nearest storm drain. She couldn’t bring herself to look at anyone, convinced that every passerby was staring at her like she was part of a show.Her legs wobbled as she stepped out of the car and headed toward the building—only to spot Christina waiting at the entrance, cheeks flushed, giving her a dramatic thumbs-up.“That was intense,” Christina whispered, eyes sparkling with amusement. “For a second, I thought Archer was going to throw you in the backseat and go all the way right there.”The mental image made even Christina blush. The way Archer had pounced on Aria... he looked like he was ready to devour her on the

    Mark looked over at Fifi again. She didn’t say anything, just lowered her head and replied quietly, “Got it.”But the idea of starting a business and surpassing the Duncan Industries? She didn’t even know what to say to that. Lilian was truly ridiculous.…The next morning, Archer dropped Aria off at Christina’s office. His Range Rover pulled up right in front of the building.“I’m not busy today. I’ll come pick you up tonight,” he said.Aria unbuckled her seatbelt and murmured, “Okay.” Just as she was about to get out, she paused and reached for his hand.His elegant palm was warm.Dressed in a tailored suit, he looked tall and lean, but no one would’ve guessed how solid and toned his body was beneath the clothes. In the soft morning light, his handsome features had a crisp, clean charm—like the fresh air at daybreak.“Drive safe,” Aria said as she gave his hand a gentle squeeze.She turned to open the car door, one foot stepping out—when she was suddenly pulled back. Her bod

    “I’m not going,” Mark said coldly.“Mark, don’t dismiss it just because it’s a branch office,” Fifi replied calmly. “The Duncan Industries’s France division is actually quite large and well-respected. The only reason there’s even a vacancy for the general manager position is because the former one was poached by a major local firm. If you take the role, it’s not just a title—it’s real management experience. It’s a chance to prove yourself.“In the future, it won’t just be the Duncan Industries—other companies will be eager to recruit you too. And if you ever want to start your own business, this kind of experience will help you avoid so many pitfalls. Plus, with the financial backing from our families, you’d never be limited by the Duncan Industries again.“I’m sure you don’t want to keep hearing people say you only climbed the ladder because of the Duncans or the Chancers.”Fifi gently placed her hand over his, which was resting on the gearshift. His fingers were long and defined,

    “Our families have always treated each other with mutual respect,” Yvette said coolly. “We give an inch, you return a mile. We show you courtesy because you’re Mark’s mother—our in-law—and we’ve never left you out when there are benefits to be shared. But don’t mistake that kindness for weakness. Just because we’ve been polite doesn’t mean anyone can walk all over us.”“When we show you respect, we let things slide. But if that respect isn’t returned—then I’m sorry, we’re not the kind of people you want to cross.”She turned her sharp gaze on Lilian without softening her tone in the slightest. “Do you understand what I’m saying, Lilian?”Lilian’s smile froze. She’d pushed too far, one time too many. She seemed to have forgotten her place—and just how wide the gap was between the Simmons family and the Duncans and Chancers. Yes, Fifi was her daughter-in-law, but before that, she was the heiress of two of the most powerful families in Harbour City. In another era, this would’ve been l
