All Chapters of Dead at Heart: Chapter 221 - Chapter 230

Chad and Ariel got out of the elevator when they reached the floor of their rooms.After the two of them left, Frank, Samuel, and those who remained in the elevator exchanged a few glances with each other.Frank remarked, "Did you guys notice how Mr. Hockney seemed to show Ms. Walker a lot of respect? Moreover, their interactions didn't look like the kind of interactions a superior would normally have with their subordinate. Instead, Mr. Hockney seemed really proud of Ms. Walker."Colin Heathorne, one of the engineers, responded, "I can tell that Ms. Walker really knows about the topic that she was sharing. For a moment, I was so thrown off and humbled by the depth of her knowledge…"Frank felt even more shocked since those words came from Colin, who was one of the most experienced senior engineers working for their company.This incident further confirmed Frank's speculation about Faye Tech having a lot of amazing, talented employees working for them.…A reception was held on

Even Chad had trouble controlling his expression when he heard what Jayson and Nancy said.He thought Jayson had brought Nancy here to meet Carlos and ask him some questions that required Carlos' knowledge and expertise. Chad didn't expect that they were actually aiming to secure Nancy's spot as Carlos' postgraduate student this year.Chad subconsciously glanced at Ariel. That spot was meant for her.Yet, Jayson always seemed to have a way to intercept during crucial moments and ruin things for Ariel.Meanwhile, Ariel had used the shortest time possible to regain her composure. She fixed Jayson and Nancy with a stony gaze.Then, Ariel lightly tugged Chad's sleeve to remind him to calm down.Nancy studied Jayson's side profile for a moment. Then, in an earnest tone, she said, "I know our country implements a slightly different system for how students can apply to undertake postgraduate studies."However, I've done extensive research and studies during my time at Arcadia Tech. I a

Chad's expression was harmless and natural. He appeared to be only asking that question because they were on that topic.Nancy frowned ever so slightly. She could not understand why Chad was so protective of Ariel. It was to the extent that he wouldn't even allow others to speak the truth about her.Chad seemed to deliberately steer the conversation toward her relationship with Jayson, making her doubt his true motives. Zach glanced at Nancy and Jayson. Given how close and intimate they were, Zach thought the couple must be planning to marry.Chad looked sincere. "Have you checked the dates, Mr. Larkin? Your family must be very pleased that you've chosen Ms. Stanton as your partner, right?"Ariel didn't make any comments.She knew very well that Chad was striking back at these people since he couldn't stand watching her getting bullied.After all, Ariel was the only person Betty had ever approved of to be Jayson's wife. Otherwise, Jayson wouldn't have made Ariel sign the divorc

When they arrived at the hospital, Perry parked his car and turned his gaze toward Ariel.She had dozed off for a while. A deep frown drew her brows together. Ariel seemed worried and troubled by something even in her sleep.Perry paused momentarily. He didn't wake her up right away.Ariel wasn't sleeping so soundly, to begin with. She woke up not long after Perry had parked the car.She checked the time. Her expression had turned cold and impassive. "Thank you."Ariel opened the car door and got out. Perry gave a slight nod and watched her enter the building.By the time she came out with the targeted drugs, Ariel found that Perry's car was still parked in the same spot. She furrowed her brows.Perry rolled down the car window and explained, "My plans got canceled at the last minute. So, I decided I might as well stay and give you a lift back to the hotel."Initially, Perry considered getting out of the car and opening the door for Ariel. On second thought, he reckoned Ariel m

Ariel, who was walking at a leisurely pace, slowed down. She furrowed her brows.She wasn't expecting to overhear Jayson and Matt's conversation while they were on a smoke break during her stroll.As for the baby room Matt had just mentioned…How each room would be used had already been decided since the first day they moved into their marital home. On the third floor were Jayson's study, the gym, and a room for Jayson to meet his guests.Their bedroom, Ariel's study, and her dressing room were on the second floor.They had never designated a room as the baby room since the beginning. Jayson had never brought up the idea during their three years of marriage.Jayson wasn't interested in conceiving a child with Ariel during those three years. He tried to postpone the matter for as long as he could.Yet, he had torn down the inside of their marital home and renovated the whole place. He even added a baby room to the house now.Ariel supposed that even a man like Jayson would chang
