Dead at Heart novel

Chapter 755 Chapter 756 "That won't be necessary," Jayson said, glancing at the cupboard. "Can you get a blanket and cover Ari?" Evelyn was rendered speechless. "I just got here, and the first thing you ask me to do is take care of your wife?" she muttered, clearly disgruntled, though her voice remained subdued as she glanced at Ariel, who was fast asleep. Jayson barely had the strength to speak. He looked pale and drained from his injuries. "I wouldn't have asked if I could move myself." Evelyn was once again left speechless. However, she was certain now.

Jayson was doing better than he looked. Even freshly conscious, he still knew how to push her buttons. With a tight-lipped sigh, Evelyn turned and fetched a clean blanket. She gently draped it over Ariel's sleeping form. Then she looked at Jayson with a blank expression. "Happy now?" Jayson replied calmly, "Thank you."

But in truth, Ariel was a victim too.

She had suffered the most, especially since her own father had tried to kill her. And despite being injured and ill, she had gone to Bluum Tower and resolved a major crisis. "Kyle and Shane made their move while you were unconscious," Evelyn said. "They conspired with some board members to help Shane secure a position at headquarters. He was clearly trying to steal the project and your authority." And that wasn't all. They even tried to pin the blame on Jayson for the government's delay in approving the project. If they could, they'd petition to have him removed from his position.

But that plan wouldn't work; Jayson still held significant influence at Bluum Corp. Jayson didn't look surprised. His gaze drifted briefly to Ariel's face. "That sounds exactly like something he'd do. #1 Evelyn followed his gaze, growing irritated by how intently Jayson looked at Ariel. "You owe your wife a huge debt of gratitude for solving this. She signed a personal liability clause and took immediate control. She even revealed her personal connections and resources to the board without a thought for her reputation.

Now, there's no way out; you must secure that project." Evelyn knew how difficult it was to request a favor from someone like Gary. It was thanks to Ariel's connections that Evelyn had managed to sway certain board members and block Shane's attempt to join headquarters. Jayson's eyes widened slightly. He looked at Ariel's pale face, then down at her injured arm. He swallowed hard. 1/3 Chapter 756 +25 BONUS The events of the previous night had likely left her shaken. Yet, Ariel had stood up to those scheming men despite her condition.

She'd nearly died the night before when she fell from the building. And she was already in poor health due to her chronic illness. Jayson felt his heart tighten at the thought. Suddenly, Ariel's body twitched. She was trying to move her injured arm. Evelyn rushed over to stop her from straining it. Her brows furrowed. "She's not doing well. Her face is pale, and she's breaking out in cold sweat." Jayson's worry surged. He tried to sit up, but pain shot through his body, leaving him unable to move. "Mom, get the doctor. Contact Liam Spencer.

He's Ari's attending physician." Evelyn's expression turned serious. She could see Ariel's condition was deteriorating. She hurried out and alerted the medical staff. Soon, Liam arrived with several foreign specialists and a nurse. Jayson's ward quickly filled with activity. The nurse administered a dose of antibiotics while Liam and the experts examined Ariel. Then Liam turned to Jayson, his expression grave. "We can't delay any longer, Mr. Larkin. You need to prepare yourself for what I'm about to say."
