All Chapters of Dead at Heart: Chapter 441 - Chapter 450

The birthday party incident had blown up far beyond control. By now, nearly everyone in Eldoria's upper crust had heard about it. And given Jayson's unique status, the fact that his personal life was now tabloid-worthy was almost surreal.In this circle, it wasn't rare for married men to keep mistresses. A so-called close female friend waiting in each city was practically an unspoken norm.But what made Nancy different was that from the moment she entered the public eye, she had always stood beside Jayson as his official girlfriend.She had the polished looks, the right family background, and a prestigious degree admired even by high society. The moment she returned home, she was seen as the woman Jayson cherished the most.Layer upon layer of filters had been placed over her image in people's minds.And now, it had all shattered overnight.Nancy was exposed as the woman who had interfered in someone else's marriage.Her carefully curated image of class, intellect, and perfectio

The second Zach saw the headline, he tapped in immediately.It was a screen recording from a live stream. The footage showed Nancy's face just as Jayson's voice came through loud and clear. "This is my wife, Ariel Walker."Jayson didn't appear on camera, but Nancy did, and her expression was unmistakable. The color drained from her face in an instant.The clip had been reposted so many times that the video quality had noticeably degraded.Zach scrolled through the comments. There were already thousands of them.What stood out about the video was how Jayson calmly and openly took the initiative to acknowledge his wife, while showing no connection to Nancy at all.Most of the comments were questioning whether Nancy had tried to pull something but failed.Even people who didn't know who Nancy was could recognize Jayson in a heartbeat.As the heir of a top-tier family, every company and investment Jayson touched thrived. He was already a well-known figure in the financial world. On

Frederick had already made up his mind. Nancy didn't deserve the hate she was getting. If she said yes, he would gladly be her safe harbor.He had liked her from the beginning. But out of respect for her relationship with Jayson, he had never crossed the line. Now that he knew they weren't officially together, why shouldn't he try?Nancy didn't look the least bit surprised, as if she was used to this kind of situation. She looked at him calmly. "Mr. Swanson, thank you for liking me, but I think we're better off as friends."Besides, Jayson never even liked Ariel. There wasn't a trace of feeling there. So how did anyone think she could actually hold onto that position?Still, Nancy hadn't completely shut the door on Frederick. After all, they were all part of the same circle, bound to cross paths again. They might even work together in the future.Frederick picked up on that. He knew Nancy had high standards. But when it came to love, he was no less than Jayson. At least he could g

Jayson could have just come up with an explanation and glossed over the details.Neither Renee nor Evelyn had gone near Betty's room. They waited in the living room as they wanted to avoid having Betty overhear them discussing matters that would most likely involve Ariel.At 7:00 pm, Jayson came in through the front door.Evelyn was sitting on the couch and looking at the quarterly financial reports of her businesses in Sorenta.She raised her head and glanced at Jayson. "Have you eaten? Should we ask the maids to prepare some food for you?"Renee had run out of patience. She hurried toward Jayson and grabbed the sleeve of his shirt. "Jay, how on earth did things turn out like this? Doesn't it look really bad for Nancy now? You must have some sort of way to help clear Nancy's name, right? I know that our company's PR department is very competent at handling these tasks."Jayson cast her a sideways glance and pulled his hand free. "You should go and sit on the couch as well."Ren

Nancy's mood lifted slightly after she heard those words. She beamed. "Thank you."Wendy gave her a wink. "You could also try my approach? Perhaps you can get Mr. Larkin to consider marriage by conceiving his child first."Nancy paused momentarily. Her gaze fell on Wendy's lower abdomen, which still appeared flat at the moment.Wendy caressed her lower abdomen. With a pensive look in her eyes, she smiled. "Lucas and I have dated for a long time. If it weren't for the baby, he probably wouldn't have decided to settle down so soon. Having a child is actually a pretty good way to help a couple's relationship grow stronger."If it weren't for the baby, Lucas probably would not have agreed to marry Wendy so soon.At the same time, Wendy felt much more relieved now that the fact that Ariel and Jayson were married had been revealed to the public. At the very least…A fleeting expression flashed through Wendy's eyes. She kept silent.Nancy subconsciously cast a glance in Lucas' directio
