All Chapters of Dead at Heart: Chapter 691 - Chapter 700

Ariel wasn't interested in listening to what Jayson and Shane had to say. She just wanted to get this over with as quickly as possible so she could go back and rest.Shane got straight to the point. "I've already worked in Isbell for several years. My work there is pretty much done, so I'm hoping to transfer back to Croinia."I'm not asking for a position at Bluum Corp, of course. Instead, I was thinking I could be transferred to our branch in Humberston. That's not too much to ask, right?"Humberston and Eldoria were located far apart. Shane was hoping to get transferred back to Croinia first.Jayson smiled. "I don't think it's possible to transfer you to our Humberston branch at the moment, Shane. These transfers require planning and careful consideration."Besides, most of the key positions in our company are already filled by senior, experienced employees. None of them would welcome a new boss suddenly being placed over them."In other words…"So, you won't approve my transf

Samson offered the most suitable solution to an extremely sticky situation by revealing the materials he possessed. To anyone, it looked like he had delivered timely help in a moment of crisis.Ariel's thoughts raced. It would be a lie to say she wasn't surprised.Outside of Croinia, the material was produced and held by only a few parties and select companies. Possessing it granted them influence over key decisions in a country's military and technology sectors.The profit from producing and selling it was enough to make businessmen compete fiercely.Until now, Jayson had been the only one with permission and the technique to produce the material. Anyone in their country—or anywhere in the Solara region—had to obtain it through him.But Samson, it turned out, had secured the production rights as well, keeping it hidden until now.At that moment, Ariel realized just how cunning and calculating he was. She subconsciously glanced at Jayson.Jayson leaned back in his chair, slowly

Samson's expression hardened almost instantly at Ariel's words. He hadn't expected something like that to have happened in the past.Almost everyone in the conference room looked shocked or bewildered after hearing what Ariel revealed.The U.N2, developed by Ariel, marked the beginning of a new era in reconnaissance and strike drones. It showcased their excellence in developing cutting-edge technology.With such an achievement under her name, the government likely wouldn't impose severe punishment even if Ariel had falsified data.In other words, as long as she hadn't betrayed the country, Ariel would always be respected and highly regarded as the developer of the U.N2.Now, however, Ariel was saying that Jayson had contributed to the creation of the U.N2.In truth, Ariel had only learned of this recently. After conducting several tests and speaking with Eric a few times, she discovered that Jayson had established his materials company much earlier than she thought.Back then, s

Ariel considered briefly how she should phrase her words. Since things had come to this, perhaps it was time to let go of everything that had been holding her back and finally tell Jayson the truth.The truth about her cancer. The truth about what had actually happened that led to the abortion before Jayson returned to Croinia.Ariel suddenly felt she should clear the air and be completely honest with him, especially since they would soon be divorced.She was even more inclined to do so when she thought about how Jayson had secretly brought Isaac back to help with Leonard's treatment and how he had quietly supported her while she worked on the U.N2 project.Maybe they should have an honest, heart-to-heart conversation for once. Then, they could part ways without any lingering regrets or resentment."What is it that you want to say?" Jayson asked, sensing something heavy on her mind. Ariel began, "I want to tell you that—"A sudden screech cut her off. Arthur jerked the steeri

Betty's birthday party was considered a major event in Eldoria.Members of the city's wealthy and prominent families would attend to celebrate, and some even traveled from other regions just to be there. Many hoped to gain the Larkin family's favor and establish valuable connections.The night before, Ariel returned to the Walker residence. She decided to personally pick up Katie and Leonard and take them to the venue.She didn't bring Jayson along, as Betty had suggested. Ariel wanted to remind Katie and Leonard in private not to accidentally say anything that might upset Betty during the party. After all, only they knew about the divorce.Katie bore no ill feelings toward Betty. She knew how much care Betty had shown Ariel during the years she lived with the Larkins. For that reason, Katie didn't mind doing this for Betty's sake."What are you and Jayson planning to do moving forward?" Katie asked once they were in the car. "I've heard things from my friends lately. They all say
