Morgan's threat echoed in Ariel's ears.The mockery in her eyes only deepened. Good thing she had never expected anything from this so-called father, so there was no disappointment now—just bitter amusement.Back then, when the reporters rushed in, Jayson had already made sure she was covered. The only image they caught was of the two of them, fully dressed, alone in the room. Even that, Jayson had handled it cleanly and left no trace.Who would have thought that the true malice would come from Morgan in the end?But to Lori, Ariel's calm was nothing but fear. Smiling, she tapped on Ariel's desk as her eyes swept across the luxurious office. "Didn't I warn you not to be so ungrateful? You think we don't know exactly what you are? Ariel, we did you a favor by giving you the perfect husband. Don't tell me you plan on biting the hand that fed you.""Lori, don't talk to your sister like that. She's always been smart and has never given me a headache. I'm sure she'll talk to Jayson on

Cecilia's words hit out of nowhere.Matt almost choked on his drink. He shot her a stunned look.Jayson slowly turned to face her. His gaze was indifferent.Cecilia didn't care about his expression in the slightest. She swirled her glass lazily. "I suddenly find this all so meaningless, Jayson. A few years ago you rejected me, saying you had a crush. Back then, you and Ariel weren't married yet. Tell me, it wasn't her, was it?"Matt was suddenly hit with a shocking revelation. He practically jumped up on instinct and rushed forward to block anyone from coming this way.Cecilia tilted her head and smiled. Her stunning eyes were fixed on him. "I hope it wasn't, or it'd really bruise my ego."A man like Jayson never spared even a shred of courtesy when he didn't care. No matter how much effort or scheming she had used back then, he remained unmoved. Even when she became emotionally unstable because of his coldness, he still didn't spare her so much as a glance.She even wondered if

Samson saw those two men as well. His brows arched. However, he did not go up to them to offer his greetings.Instead, he leaned closer to Ariel's ear and said, "Where are you going next? I've been here a few times, so I'm quite familiar with the place. Should I show you the way?"Ariel averted her gaze from the two men and responded politely, "That won't be necessary. Commander Quinton will send someone to meet up with me. You should go ahead and take care of what you need to do."She refused his help. Her tone was calm and polite as it usually was.Samson didn't insist on helping her with the directions. He passed an umbrella to Ariel. "Take this with you. Should I give you a ride home once you've settled your work here?""You don't have to wait for me." Ariel didn't explain much. She probably didn't want to owe Samson yet another favor.Samson smiled and replied, "I'll get going, then."After Samson left, Ariel stopped wondering about why Jayson was here today. She turned aro

Jayson wasn't bothered by Ariel's attitude. He responded frankly, "Was it obvious? How about I hold an umbrella for you?"Ariel furrowed her brows and directed her gaze at him. "What is it you're trying to do?"Jayson slowly turned his head and met Ariel's gaze. "I'm simply curious and trying to find out what kind of tactics would work on you."Ariel felt that Jayson had gotten the upper hand again during their conversation and decided to ignore him entirely. Oftentimes, neither of them was willing to give in whenever they started bickering.Honestly, Jayson was aware that nothing was going on between Ariel and Samson. Regardless of how forward Samson was with his feelings, Jayson knew Ariel well enough to know that she could be very slow and guarded.She might not even notice the other person's intentions no matter how much effort they had put in.Soon enough, they reached the residential area.Without pausing to wait for Jayson, Ariel opened the door and got out of the car.H

The scent was overpowering. Ariel tried to struggle, twisting against the iron grip holding her, but her limbs quickly lost strength.Her vision dimmed with every passing second. She fixed her gaze on the tender venue just around the next corner, the sight blurring before everything faded to black.The bid was scheduled to begin at 3:00 pm.Since the club and the venue were close by, it was easy for guests to move between the two locations.When Jayson arrived, he spotted Chad stepping into the venue at the same time.Though Chad disliked seeing Jayson there, he masked his irritation behind perfect manners, his smile as polished as ever."Mr. Larkin! Was it really necessary for you to attend the tender personally? Bluum Corp has so many capable people who could've handled this."Indeed, there were many other people from Bluum Corp who could have represented Jayson. Jayson didn't miss the faint edge in Chad's voice, but he brushed it aside. "A project that Faye Tech is so inter
