All Chapters of Dead at Heart: Chapter 431 - Chapter 440

Samson seemed to have given up.Ariel turned to head for the restaurant, only to catch sight of Nancy getting out of a car nearby.She must have seen Ariel already. Her face gave nothing away as her eyes briefly swept past Ariel before she walked straight into the restaurant.Nancy frowned slightly as she climbed the stairs.Samson had just gotten out of Ariel's car. When did those two get so close?It made her reassess Ariel a little.Meeting Samson in private? Her intentions couldn't be more obvious. Ariel really did know how to play the game in some ways.However, Samson wasn't someone who could be swayed that easily.Nancy made her way to a table.Sarah had finally been discharged from the hospital, and she was doing well enough today to come out for a proper meal.Once Nancy sat down, Sarah asked, "How are you planning to spend Jayson's birthday with him? You don't think Ariel's going to try something to keep him away, do you?""She won't," Nancy replied calmly. "She do

As soon as Ariel stepped inside, she didn't see Betty anywhere.Just as she was about to head further inside, she turned and spotted Jayson on the balcony, talking on the phone.He turned around right then and looked directly at her. His eyes reflected a subtle gleam under the night sky. He didn't seem particularly surprised to see her and simply ended the call.Ariel, on the other hand, was visibly caught off guard. She glanced around the lounge. After confirming that Betty was definitely not here, she frowned.Jayson noticed her expression and started walking over. He seemed to have already understood the situation. "Grandma asked you to come?"Ariel took a step back. "Has she left?"Jayson didn't answer. He just watched her guarded posture and said, "Don't worry. She's fine."After hearing that, Ariel didn't bother pressing further about what was going on. She had no intention of saying anything more to Jayson. She simply turned and walked toward the door without the slightes

Jayson's voice wasn't loud, but it landed like a hammer, crashing into everyone's ears with undeniable weight.The corridor fell into sudden silence. Every single person wore some form of shock on their face.When Nancy heard those words, her chest heaved. She clenched her fingers tightly, barely holding herself together as her composure threatened to crack.She was stunned. Her gaze settled on Jayson's calm face.He actually admitted that Ariel was his wife.Even Ariel was caught off guard. Her head snapped up, and her eyes locked onto the man beside her.As if sensing her stare, Jayson glanced down at her and said, "I'm truly sorry, everyone. We never made our relationship public for various reasons, but we've been married for four years now."Betty's expression immediately softened. She gave a slight nod, clearly satisfied.But for everyone else, it was like a calm lake struck by a boulder, sending shockwaves in every direction.Matt raised a hand to his forehead. It was re

Matt left to take Nancy home, while Perry stayed behind to help smooth things over at the scene.As for the live stream, they would have to wait and see how things unfolded before taking any action.Ariel wasn't concerned about how they would clean up the mess. Betty hadn't let go of her hand since the moment they left, so Ariel couldn't very well pull away. She just silently followed her into the car.…When they arrived at Larkin Manor, Jayson got out first and walked around to open the car door for Ariel.He looked at her, calm and composed.Sometimes, Ariel had to admire this about him. Even in moments like these, he could still keep a straight face and put on an act.She got out and followed Betty into the house.Betty didn't seem angry at all. In fact, she looked rather satisfied with how Jayson had handled things earlier. "It was a mess back at the hotel. We didn't even get to eat. Dinner's ready here. Let's sit down and eat first before we talk."Ariel glanced toward t

Ariel didn't quite understand what Jayson was thinking. Why go through the motions when Betty wasn't even around to see it?Besides, shouldn't he be in a rush to find Nancy right now and clean up the fallout from tonight's scandal?This might be the first time Nancy had suffered such a major blow. No doubt she needed Jayson to comfort her."Your address?" Jayson turned toward Ariel. "It's late. It's not safe to be out this late alone."Clearly, he wasn't giving her a choice.Ariel didn't feel like arguing, so she typed her home address into the GPS.The ride was silent. Neither of them spoke.Just before they arrived, Jayson's phone, which was resting on the center console, suddenly rang.The sharp sound cut through the silence. Ariel instinctively glanced at the screen.It was a call from someone saved as "Babe".She quickly looked away.Jayson didn't bother hiding it. He just answered the call.Nancy's voice came through, sounding tired. "Jayson, are you done over there?"
