While Aria's quick remarriage after their divorce certainly irritated him, what mattered most and bothered him the greatest was having his CEO position stolen from him.Susan was about to offer some advice when suddenly there was a knock at the door.Susan looked up alertly, only to see Melvin bringing Ryan with him—both men standing at the doorway.Melvin was frowning, his face carrying a hint of coldness. Ryan's expression remained impassive as he met Susan's searching gaze and gave only a slight nod."Sorry, I may have come at a bad time." Ryan looked toward Larry and continued, "But Uncle Melvin said that since I just returned to the country, he wanted to bring me back to the Spencer house for dinner. I hope I'm not disturbing Auntie and... Larry?”Larry's face darkened, and Susan's expression changed as well."Not at all, not at all. Do you have any dietary restrictions? I'll have the housekeeper prepare dinner right away."Susan quickly forced a smile and approached them.

Spencer Corporation’s PR department quickly contacted Ryan, and after understanding his intentions, immediately drafted and posted a public statement. The gist was that they were already discussing how much compensation to give Aria—it wasn't that they wouldn't pay, but the amount was substantial and required lawyers to handle the asset division.The netizens weren't fools—they could see right through what was happening.{They're only compensating because they got scolded into it, just trying to buy time.}That was indeed the truth.The dinner Ryan had at the Spencer house was truly unpleasant. Larry got another scolding from Melvin, and Susan couldn't bring herself to defend him since Larry was clearly in the wrong this time.When Larry heard Melvin say he would have to transfer half of his assets, his face turned black with rage, but at this point, he had no choice but to accept it.Until Ryan added another comment, "Give her the Jackson family's old mansion villa."As soon as

Including Susan's distorted accusations, and of course also hearing how Larry had forced her to give up Professor Claire.Others might not understand, but he did.Aria's greatest dream in her youth was to become a designer, and Professor Claire was the designer she most admired. To have gained Professor Claire's favor only to have Larry easily destroy it all.He couldn't understand why, after something like that happened, Aria hadn't considered leaving the Spencer family, but instead continued to stay and be exploited and enslaved by them.He wasn't just angry because of Susan's accusations—he was more upset that Aria didn't even care about herself.Compared to those other things, wasn't her harm to herself even greater?Moreover.He could imagine that Aria at that time might have still harbored fantasies and hopes about Larry, which was why she didn't leave.Her sincere heart had truly been trampled completely into the ground."Aria, when Larry gave that opportunity to Lucy,

Kent didn't think much of it and actually drove to Regent Garden.Aria waited at a coffee shop across from Regent Garden, choosing a window seat with a perfect view of the main entrance. She ordered a black coffee while Kent, who had a sweet tooth, ordered five different mini cakes, which made Aria can't help but give him a second look."Kent, how do you stay so thin when you love sweets this much?" People with that kind of metabolism were truly enviable.Kent took a bite of the freshly served tiramisu and grinned. "I hit the gym when I get home at night. I don't eat like this every day—just indulging occasionally."Working out at night just to justify eating sweets—he really did love his desserts.Aria checked the time, figured it was about right, paid the bill and left. She waited by the roadside across from Regent Garden's entrance.The summer night breeze carried a hint of sultry heat. The street lights were bright, and the surrounding buildings were all lit up—the usual bust

Archer gave a quiet hum and picked up the honey water to drink.After finishing most of it, he suddenly stopped and looked up with a half-smile. "Do you know that when you came to pick me up, it felt like I was a husband under his wife's care?"Aria's face immediately flushed red. She lowered her head and mumbled quietly, "That's not what I meant.""It's fine if that's what you meant." He had finished the drink completely, his eyes still carrying a hint of amusement."I should be a husband under your care anyway."Hearing this, Aria's heartbeat seemed to skip a beat. When she looked up at him again, she could only see the gentleness in his eyes.During her three years married to Larry, she often heard him say, "Aria, you married me, so you have to listen to me." Even Larry's mother Susan would constantly tell her that marrying into the Spencer family meant obeying the Spencers.But Archer was different.He said he was a husband under her care."Is this where you usually live?"
