Chapter : 155 Matt spotted Ariel first. His brows arched. Still, he greeted her and Janice. “What a coincidence seeing you here.” Ariel merely cast him a brief glance. Then, she grabbed Janice’s arm and led her away. She clearly had no intention to interact with him. Despite how often
Chapter : 154 Ariel had nothing to do with anything, no matter what it was that Jayson had done for Nancy. Ariel and Chad arrived at Faye Tech’s building. It was not like they had gained nothing from attending Vireon’s product launch. Ariel had written down details worth noting. After
Chapter : 153 Even Ariel, who was usually mild–tempered, could not help feeling a bit piqued and shocked by his words. She could not understand why Zach seemed to have a lot of scorn and disdain for her. “Mr. Quinton, have I somehow offended you previously?” Ariel did not try
Chapter : 152 Jayson lowered his head and looked at Nancy. He lightly patted her back to calm her down. The people around them started looking at Nancy a bit more seriously after witnessing how Jayson had stepped up to protect her. With Jayson showing so much concern for her,
Chapter : 151 Ariel was completely oblivious to all these things happening on Zach’s side. She and Chad discussed for a while the high–tech material that Vireon was about to launch. Even before the event started, Ariel had roughly listed out the pros and cons of this new material made
Chapter : 150 If Ariel were to go ahead and tell all those people that she was Jayson’s wife earlier, Nancy might end up getting criticized for dating a married man. Jayson might not let Ariel and her family off if that happened. In the end, Ariel made her decision
