Chapter : 183 Jayson looked up, his gaze locking on Ariel. She looked surprisingly well. She was wearing light makeup and a tan–colored belted coat that flattered her graceful figure. She stood there calmly, with a serene expression in her eyes. Ariel noticed Jayson looking at her, but she didn’t
Chapter : 182 There was no way Ariel could explain to Katie how Jayson had once fought her over this ring for Nancy’s sake or how he had used it to pressure her into signing the divorce agreement. If she said all that, Katie might get so upset she’d fall
Chapter : 181 Ariel glanced at Chad’s phone screen. It was an Instagram post from Matt. He posted nine photos showing a party at some upscale club with wine, champagne, and everyone clearly having a great time. The last photo caught her attention. In a corner, Jayson sat lazily in
Chapter : 180 This time, Edward answered Matt’s question, “No, they’ll have to wait for the 30 days to pass. That’s a necessary stage of the process.” Matt clicked his tongue. “So that means she gets a free month. Jayson, this policy is quite frustrating, huh?” Jayson seemed unconcerned with
Chapter : 179 Unlike Matt, who was stunned, Jayson’s face showed no reaction at all. His gaze was unreadable, resting thoughtfully on Ariel. Ariel had already set the pen down. No wonder Jayson brought out a brand–new divorce agreement. He wanted to keep full control of the negotiation from the
Chapter : 178 Ariel was surprisingly businesslike. She was completely emotionless, like it was just another business meeting. But soon, she frowned. That brief thought that maybe Jayson was being kind vanished as she spotted two more conditions in the agreement. One said she couldn’t tell Betty the truth about
Chapter : 177 Jayson walked in from outside, dressed in a sleek black overcoat. His sharp features were as emotionless as ever. His gaze fell on Ariel without a trace of what anyone would expect from a man about to finalize a divorce. Behind him were Matt and another man
Chapter : 175 Ariel met Jayson’s gaze. There was a look of indifference in those eyes. He was waiting for Ariel’s reply. Honestly, Ariel was not that surprised to see Jayson react this way. He probably thought Ariel had crossed the line with what she did today. Ariel had already
Chapter : 174 Jayson lifted his gaze and looked at Ariel. His eyes showed no emotion. A thought occurred to Ariel at that moment. Sarah was also staying at this hospital. This place was the registration area for patients undergoing liver transplant operations. Now that Nancy and Jayson were here…
Chapter : 173 Jayson held the envelope in his hands. He checked the shipping label for the time this envelope was mailed. It was actually mailed two months ago. As he held the envelope and turned around, Jayson accidentally shook it. He could hear the sound of something small rolling
Chapter : 172 Ariel sat there silently for a moment. It turned out Jayson had left in a hurry because he was worried about Nancy skipping meals and overworking herself. She replied with another message. “Alright.” It appeared one could easily make their mothers and lovers yield to them by
Chapter : 171 Jayson didn’t refute her words. However, he had begun to notice the slight changes in Ariel’s attitude. From a distance, he kept his eyes trained on Ariel as if he were trying to discern whether the expressions on her face were a true reflection of her honest
Chapter : 170 Jayson paused briefly. “This place offers a spectacular night view.” Ariel could tell that Betty wanted them to enjoy an amazing night together. She looked around them. A violinist played a song on her violin to create a romantic mood for the couple. Ariel could sometimes see
Chapter : 169 Ariel raised her head as she heard the sound of a car honking. A Bentley parked by the roadside had its hazard lights on. Toby dutifully got out of the car and opened the door for Ariel. Ariel finally recalled that it was Valentine’s Day today. She
Chapter : 168 Ariel looked up from her food. She did not expect Betty to know so much about these relatively new, trendy things. Not only did she know about candlelight dinners, but Betty was also aware of suites designed specifically for couples on Valentine’s Day. Before Ariel could think
Chapter : 167 Ariel had reacted quite strongly. She still had a calm expression on her face. However, the way she had subconsciously resisted and raised her hand to push Jayson’s hand away was done by following her instincts. Jayson stiffened. Under the warm, orange lights, his cold, deep–set eyes
Chapter : 166 Ariel reckoned Jayson was probably with Nancy at the moment. Normally, Ariel would not care at all no matter how long or how often Jayson wanted to spend his time with Nancy. However, today…. She had no choice but to come up with a plan. Betty was
Chapter : 165 Ariel stopped breathing for a second. Then, she frowned and sent Lucas a glare. She glanced at the expressionless Jayson next. He seemed completely uninterested in what was going on between Ariel and Lucas. Earlier, Ariel noticed that Jayson had frowned almost unnoticeably when Lucas mentioned the
