Nancy's eyes widened in realization. She remembered using those very words with Ariel during the celebration party for their project's success. Now, those same words were being turned against her, mocking and humiliating her.Her throat tightened, making it difficult to breathe.Desperate like a drowning person grasping for air, Nancy looked toward Jayson.Jayson's gaze shifted to Ariel. He pushed back his chair and stood. "It seems Ms. Walker has made up her mind. And there's no denying Nancy's misconduct in this matter. Let's conclude this here."Nancy's heart skipped a beat at Jayson's words, but she had no way to protest.Ariel had achieved her purpose, and she wasn't about to waste more time on this.It was a mere coincidence that Jayson had prepared the entrustment agreement. Ariel simply chose to use the opportunity to her advantage.Sarah and Nancy had been living off the money earned by plagiarizing Elena's work. Ariel saw no reason to show mercy to such unscrupulous pe

Ariel wasn't sure when Jayson had arrived. With one hand casually tucked in his pocket, Jayson appeared relaxed as he leaned against his car. His dark eyes were unreadable as they fixed on her. The intensity of his gaze made her pause mid-step.To Ariel, it felt odd that Jayson would come to see her at this precise moment.Jayson noticed her hesitation but seemed unfazed. He strode forward confidently."Is something the matter, Mr. Larkin?" Ariel asked, wary under his commanding presence, instinctively considering stepping back.But Jayson stopped just short of her. Bathed in soft moonlight, he lowered his gaze to meet hers."I suppose you have plenty of questions and want to hear the answers directly from me," he said calmly.He was right. The shareholders' meeting had left Ariel puzzled. Everything had unfolded so quickly and smoothly—and Jayson clearly had no intention of aiding Nancy's cause."How kind of you to make the effort," Ariel responded coolly, fixing him with a s

Nancy could barely process anything after receiving such a crippling blow. It felt like she had plunged into a cold, dark pool—one she might drown in at any moment.Everything that had unfolded was disastrous and overwhelming for both her and Sarah. She couldn't make sense of it. Just when things seemed to be moving forward positively, one plan after another crumbled.Nancy knew she had to find a way to salvage the situation.Publicly, the major incident at Veyo Solutions was still under wraps. The news about Nancy's misappropriation of dividends hadn't leaked.But inside the company, employees were stunned when they learned Ariel had replaced Nancy as their new boss. Most had been aware of the connection between the two women; now they had clear confirmation and a stronger sense of whom to respect.That night, Nancy couldn't sleep. The weight of defeat felt far heavier than any setback before.Even after Veyo Solutions informed her to clear out her desk, she still couldn't reach

Nancy felt a slight sense of relief when she saw the password. She knew Jayson was probably at the marital home, and she wanted to wait for him there.Approaching the door, she carefully keyed in the numbers, but the door didn't open. The digital lock indicated that the password was incorrect.Frowning, Nancy checked the password Renee sent again and re-entered it, but still no luck. Typing quickly, she messaged, "Renee, did you send me the wrong password?"Renee replied, "Impossible. That's the password I use whenever I go to his house. Maybe Jayson changed it? Didn't he tell you? Have you never been there before?"Renee was feeling a bit annoyed too. Jayson hadn't even bothered to tell her that he had changed the password.The last two sentences made Nancy's expression turn grim. Jayson had never shared these details with her as they rarely discussed such mundane matters.Since Renee had asked, Nancy politely replied, "I forgot about it. You should continue with what you were

Ariel hadn't paid much attention to the marital home lately.Now, overhearing Nancy mention it, she did a quick mental calculation and realized the renovations must be completed by now. Yet, Nancy had chosen such a moment to bring it up on the phone—Ariel's eyes flashed with scorn. Nancy's intention was obvious.After ending her call, Nancy spotted Ariel and scoffed. "Do you have a habit of eavesdropping on other people's conversations?"Ariel placed her phone in the designated area and shot Nancy a sideways glance. "Are you that proud about using a second-hand place? Hasn't Jayson ever thought of buying you two a new house? But I guess you're fine with how things are."Nancy's face darkened, but Ariel ignored her and walked away.A deep frown creased Nancy's forehead. The fallout at Veyo Solutions weighed heavily on her heart, lingering like a shadow she couldn't shake. The incident had even stolen her sleep.She drew a slow breath and straightened her back, bracing herself as s
