Dead at Heart novel

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 many better rooms they can choose from , yet they specifically want my uncle's room . What are they after ? " Jayson gazed at her calmly . " It's important for the patient to stay in a good mood . I can arrange for your uncle to have the best room and pay the full year's fee upfront .

" Not even bothering to elaborate further , he went straight to business . He'd really go to great lengths just to make Sarah happy . Ever since Leonard fell ill , Jayson had never helped out even a little , let alone pay for anything . Yet now he agreed to pay the VIP room fee for Leonard for the entire year , which amounted to millions of dollars , just for Nancy and her family . Ariel had once thought of relocating Leonard to a better room , but she couldn't afford it . Even though she was Jayson's wife , she couldn't use the benefits that came with this identity .

So , she put off the thought again and again . Seeing that Jayson was serious about this , she calmed down . " Does this mean you're asking a favor from me ? " Jayson raised an eyebrow . He immediately understood . " What do you want in return ? " " It's your responsibility to pay the VIP room fee , so it's not part of the deal . What do I want in return , you ask ? I want a favor from you , one I can call in whenever I need it . Deal ? " Ariel spoke softly . She wasn't confident that it would work . She knew that right now , Jayson was still willing to negotiate amicably .

If she continued to refuse the offer , he could go straight to the hospital director . When that happened , Leonard might be forced to evacuate that room . The art gallery incident had already left a bad taste in his mouth . His precious Nancy had felt " wronged " . This time , Jayson might not go easy on her . She might as well ask for some sort of guarantee in return . Ariel wasn't hoping to gain anything from him . It was just that since Sarah returned to the country , she had deliberately gone up against the Walker family time and again .

Ariel suspected that further problems would arise later on . So , she decided to ask for a favor . After all , Jayson's promise carried a lot of weight . However , she wasn't confident that Jayson would accept her conditions and requests . He didn't have feelings for her anyway , so why would he tolerate her unreasonable demands ? At that thought , Ariel bit her lower lip . Upon meeting Jayson's gaze , she realized he was staring at her thoughtfully . Jayson stared at Ariel's pale complexion , and they looked at each other for a long time .

172 Chapter 95 +25 BONUS Upon noticing Ariel's reddened eyes , he suddenly gave in . " Alright , as you wish . " Ariel stared into his cold , striking eyes in surprise . She was momentarily stunned , not expecting it to work out so well . Seemingly unaware of the look of surprise on her face , Jayson asked , " Do you have any other requests ? " Ariel came back to her senses . She said calmly , " I hope you won't disrupt my uncle's peace . " It was obvious that she meant that Jayson and Nancy shouldn't go overboard and be all lovey - dovey in Leonard's presence .

If they tore down the façade , it would benefit no one . Jayson studied her solemn expression , and a bitter look crossed his eyes . His thin lips seemed to curl into a half smile that hinted at mockery . Without saying anything , he turned and returned to Sarah's room . Ariel let out a sigh of relief and stopped thinking about them . She then went to Leonard's room . Jayson settled everything efficiently . The nurse informed Ariel that they had arranged a room on the 12th floor that would get plenty of sunlight . Ariel helped Leonard gather his belongings and moved up to the room .

Leonard was puzzled . " Why are we relocating to another room all of a sudden ? " Ariel gave an excuse . " I received a hefty bonus , so I can now get you a better room . " Leonard was doubtful for a moment , but seeing the natural look on her face , he didn't ask any further . Now , Leonard was staying on the 12th floor , whereas Sarah was on the second . The floor layouts were complicated here , so there was little possibility that they would meet each other . As long as Jayson stayed away , nothing would happen .
