Dead at Heart novel

Chapter 735 Chapter 736 Chapter 736 +25 BONUS Ariel guessed those calls might have something to do with Morgan as well. She grabbed Kate's phone, blocked his number, and said, "Grandma, don't pick up any unknown calls from now on. The Sanderson family might be in some trouble lately. We're staying out of it." Kate didn't know the details, but she trusted Ariel and nodded. Ariel herself didn't know the full situation with the Sandersons either, but if Jayson was involved, it probably wasn't a minor issue. She got up to go outside for some fresh air.

Just as she reached the door, her phone rang. It was Janice calling. Janice's excitement was practically audible through the line. "I just heard some gossip! It's totally insane!" Ariel looked up at the clear autumn sky and tugged her collar closer. "What is it?" "Cecilia's in big trouble! I heard this from my friend. She's apparently been forcibly sent to a rehab facility, and she's going to be in there for a long time! Can you believe it? You said she's the daughter of some top big shot, right?

She's supposed to be untouchable, and yet she ends up like this!" Talking about this, Janice felt a surge of satisfaction. Cecilia had caused all sorts of trouble, yet she tried to smear Ariel publicly at Betty's birthday party. Nᴇw ɴovel chaptᴇrs are published on FindNovel.net Now, karma had come calling. Ariel knew that Jayson had probably orchestrated the whole thing. Getting Cecilia into this situation was no small feat. It was, in a way, revenge for her poor baby. However, Jayson hadn't told her of any of this. Under normal circumstances, there was no way to punish someone like Cecilia.

Yet somehow, Jayson managed to have her sent straight to a rehabilitation facility-a place far more terrifying than prison. She was in for a tough time. "Serves her right!" Janice muttered. Ariel remembered something. "Chad said you haven't been to Faye Tech for the past two days. Is something up?" Janice fell silent for a moment, as if someone had strangled her voice. Then, she said reluctantly, "My 1/3 Chapter 736 +25 BONUS ... My fiance, Wade Garner, is back." Ariel's memory clicked. No wonder Wade seemed familiar when she had seen him at the base earlier. She had met him years ago.

He was Janice's fiance from an arranged childhood engagement. Janice and Wade had gone through years of on-and-off entanglements. "Are you two planning to get married?" Ariel asked. Janice was quiet for a moment, then mumbled weakly, "I'm not sure. He hasn't said anything." Ariel knew a bit about their relationship. These two had a complicated history. In the end, Janice forced a casual tone. "It doesn't matter. I'll just go with the flow. I'm not worried about marriage anyway. You just focus on getting better.

I'll come see you tomorrow." She ended the call quickly, clearly trying to avoid the topic. Ariel lowered her eyes and stared at the screen. Right below Janice's call log was Jayson's number. Jayson had handled such a huge matter without telling her, and now he seemed to have vanished completely. Just then, she saw a pair of long legs in front of her. Her brow twitched as she looked up and saw Lucas. He stared at her deeply. "Ari, Wendy and I are done." They were completely done.

Ever since Jayson had revealed the truth to him last time, he hadn't planned to let the Johnstone or Sanderson families off the hook. Ariel could almost read what he meant. She instinctively stepped back. The movement seemed to hurt Lucas, and his voice went hoarse. "I'm sorry. I've wronged you. If Wendy hadn't lied to me, I would never have treated you like that. Ari, can you forgive me?" He wanted to go back to the time when Ariel had relied on him completely. 2/3
