Chapter : 110 Once the project at Faye Technologies was stable and running smoothly, Ariel could focus on her treatment and start preparing to tell Katie and Leonard about her condition. After she changed into her clothes and stepped out, her phone buzzed incessantly. Ariel picked it up to check.
Chapter : 109 Jayson was actually surprised. He had promised to send Ariel some photos of that painting, so he sent them over when he had some free time today. But to his surprise, the photos he sent only received one gray tick. He didn’t even know when exactly Ariel
Chapter : 108 Jayson never admitted it, so Ariel wasn’t anyone to him. Janice thought today had been a bad day. She wanted to take Ariel out for drinks and karaoke. Ariel used to drink when she worked in PR. But now, with her health issues, she was doing everything
Chapter : 107 Nancy immediately picked up on the subtle jab in Janice’s words. Her brow furrowed, and she shot a displeased glance at her. She didn’t believe she had done anything to provoke Janice. It was likely Ariel’s influence at play. Nancy glanced over at Ariel, who was approaching,
Chapter : 106 Nancy looked confident, graceful, and poised. Zach couldn’t help recalling the moment Ariel threw herself at Jayson. “Who exactly is Ariel?” he asked. Frederick thought for a second. “She’s with Faye Technologies now as Mr. Hockney’s assistant. But if you ask me, their relationship doesn’t seem strictly
Chapter : 105 Ariel’s words were stuck in her throat. Frowning, she looked up at him. “You’re overthinking it, Mr. Larkin. I wasn’t going to ask you for it.” Jayson didn’t answer right away. He simply stared thoughtfully at her face. From his angle, he noticed her slightly sharper chin.
Chapter : 104 Everyone just shook their heads. Even Frederick walked over and scoffed. “Of all the people you could’ve gone up against, you chose Ms. Stanton? With Mr. Larkin standing right there, you really thought she would walk away empty–handed?” In his eyes, anyone trying to compete with Nancy
Chapter : 103 Ariel’s expression shifted. She stared at Nancy in surprise. Nancy, however, smiled back with a calm, elegant grace. Her composure and confidence were entirely genuine. Frowning, Frederick glanced over. “Ms. Walker, did you even check the signature? Anything displayed in Spencer Gallery is a masterpiece. There’s no
Chapter : 102 Janice continued, “And Zach is now in–laws with the Spencer family. That’s a true power match.” Ariel was a little surprised. No wonder the exhibition was so exclusive. Between the Spencers‘ elite status and the Quintons‘ connections, this wasn’t the kind of place just anyone could walk
Chapter : 101 Ariel immediately noticed the look Nancy threw her way. It carried a hint of amusement–a look that felt especially cutting. Jayson’s face remained cold and unreadable, showing no trace of familiarity toward her. As curious gazes swept in from all directions, a faint smirk tugged at the
Chapter : 100 Ariel held Janice back. She calmly looked at Frederick. “We’re here representing Mr. Hockney.” “Since when has Mr. Hockney become so negligent, so much so that he’d send the likes of you to attend an event like this, which is vital for networking?” Frederick frowned, clearly puzzled.
Chapter : 99 Noticing Betty’s enthusiasm, Ariel thought that seemed peculiar. “He… had already left.” She wasn’t sure when Jayson left in the night. Judging by how neat the bed was, she was certain he didn’t stay the night. Betty’s expression changed. “He left? It’s only 7:30 am. I woke
Chapter : 98 Jayson calmly withdrew his hand and glanced at Betty. “Happy now?” Betty was reassured, but she still told the household staff to bring Jayson a bowl of concoction. “Take this supplement. It’s good for you.” Seeing that she insisted, Jayson decided to go along with her. He
Chapter : 97 Ariel’s gaze flickered, and she unknowingly tightened her grip on her utensils. Renee took in her reaction in that fleeting moment, and her grin broadened. She shoved her phone nearer to Jayson, demanding a response. “Jayson, do you like it or not?” Jayson’s cold gaze fell on
Chapter : 96 Ariel also had a bit more peace of mind. She accompanied Leonard for lunch. At the same time, she recovered from the discomfort she felt from the radiation therapy. Then, she returned to Faye Tech to wrap things up. Jayson never contacted her again. The next day,
Chapter : 95 Jayson spoke in a business–like tone. Ariel’s gaze wavered slightly. She was very uptight. Because of the radiation therapy she just had, she felt lightheaded. She had to secretly hold onto the nursing counter to stop herself from falling. Ariel took in a deep breath. “There are
Chapter : 94 The nursing facility was right behind the department she was in. It was quite near. When Ariel arrived, she paid a lump sum of 200 thousand dollars. After she signed the bill, the nurse asked her, “Ms. Walker, would you be okay if we relocate Mr. Walker
Chapter : 93 Janice had just taken a dosage of oral solution, grimacing in pain as she did. She turned toward Ariel. “I’m sure there are a good number of them. Various organizations of different natures will collect paintings from various means for resale.” Confused, she asked, “Why?” Ariel kneaded
Chapter : 92 However, Betty’s appetite was much better. She even took an extra helping. The oatmeal Ariel prepared was almost finished. Even Jayson took a big portion. Ariel wasn’t surprised at all. Jayson had always enjoyed her cooking. After dinner, Jayson went out to answer a phone call. Ariel
Chapter : 91 The call went unanswered for a long time. It was only about 8:00 pm. Betty was a mischievous old soul. She liked to watch dramas and scroll through the reels on social media. She shouldn’t already be asleep. Ariel called the landline instead. One of the household
