Dead at Heart novel

Chapter 99 Noticing Betty's enthusiasm , Ariel thought that seemed peculiar . " He ... had already left . " She wasn't sure when Jayson left in the night . Judging by how neat the bed was , she was certain he didn't stay the night . Betty's expression changed . " He left ? It's only 7:30 am . I woke up at 6:00 am , but I never saw him leave . " Ariel realized that something was not right with Betty . She soothed her and asked , " Grandma , did something happen ? " Seeing that she was curious , Betty sighed heavily . " The concoction I had him drink last night wasn't a supplement . It was ...

an aphrodisiac . " The field of alternative medicine was extensive and profound . She purposely asked Albert to prepare the concoction , but evidently , it didn't help ! Ariel didn't look like someone who'd had a passionate night . Ariel froze . Pressing her lips together , she fell silent . No wonder she thought Jayson's voice sounded raspy last night . As for when he left ... " Grandma , tell the kitchen staff not to prepare breakfast for Jayson . " Renee was descending the stairs , yawning . When she passed by Ariel , she arched an eyebrow at her .

She bluntly said , " He's already had breakfast with someone else . " Someone else ... It must be Nancy . Ariel looked down . It seemed Jayson had gone to Nancy's last night . After taking the concoction Betty gave him , he wouldn't do it with Ariel even if he was aroused . They must have spent a thoroughly steamy night together thanks to those sexy photos of Nancy and the aphrodisiac . Betty was miffed . She barked in annoyance , " Why would he leave so early ? What on earth is so interesting out there ? " She went through all that trouble too !

How did she end up having such a tactless man as her grandson ? Ariel didn't say anything else . She also didn't mention Jayson had already left in the night so that Betty wouldn't get all worked up again . Thinking about Betty's effort to acquire the aphrodisiac , Ariel smirked discreetly to herself . Others now saw her as a woman who'd been so badly neglected by her husband that she needed an aphrodisiac for him to show interest in her . However , Betty's actions only ended up adding a little more spice to Jayson and Nancy's bedroom activities .

The art exhibition that the Spencer family hosted fell on a weekend . Chad lacked interest in such events , so Ariel attended the exhibition with Janice . As Janice said , the art gallery truly stood out . Rumors had it that the eldest son of the Spencer family had hired a 1/2 Chapter 99 +25 BONUS world - renowned architect to design the building . It was located in a quiet corner of a highly valuable commercial area . Ariel and Janice entered the venue using Chad's invitation . Even someone born with a silver spoon like Janice , who'd had a lot of exposure , couldn't help but be amazed .

" I heard the Spencers spent billions of dollars on this gallery , all for the sake of their hobby . However , the Spencer family isn't only involved in the business industry . Their in - laws , the Quintons , are involved in politics in the central region . Because of that , attending this exhibition can be considered a pledge of loyalty where guests can get acquainted with political figures . " Ariel knew a little about the unspoken rules of high society . No wonder they were selective toward who they invited . The exhibition hall comprised five levels .

The first and second levels featured art collections by various artists from around the world . Ariel led Janice toward that hall . Halfway there , someone stood in their way . Frederick frowned at them . " How did you two get in here ? " Janice was annoyed to see him . " What has it got to do with you ? Mind your own business ! " Frederick glanced at Ariel . Finally , he said , " This isn't some sort of internet - famous location where you women could take photos and share on social media . You shouldn't misbehave ! "
