Nico Haynes cast a glance at Dawn Sutherland, whose tone was indifferent yet concerned. Turning his head to Arlo Seys, upon seeing the deep expression on his face, he gritted his teeth with a look of reckless determination, "Drink! Today I’ll bleed! Isn’t it just 170,000? For the sake of Boss Seys feeling better, I’m willing!" With that said, he downed the red wine in his glass in one go and poured himself another glass.
The three exchanged smiles, not saying much, and raised their glasses to clink against each other’s before drinking it all down in one go.
Arlo Seys gazed at the remaining red liquid in the goblet, then slowly began, "I have made a private deal with Ariel Morris."
Nico Haynes and Dawn Sutherland both paused, waiting for him to continue.
Arlo Seys opened his thin lips, then said in a deep voice, "My Era enterprise is collaborating with the Morris Clan, I help the Morris Clan weather their crisis, and she---becos my lover."
Nico Haynes and Dawn Sutherland looked at him in shock, disbelief evident on their faces.
Nico Haynes pursed his lips, "Boss Seys, you’ll end up falling for Ariel Morris’ tricks again."
What was so good about Ariel Morris? Worth Boss Seys’s everlasting thoughts, risking getting hurt again and again.
Dawn Sutherland spoke softly, "It’s not about what’s good about Ariel, but about Arlo. His heart has been fully given to Ariel eight years ago and has never returned."
After hearing Dawn’s words, Arlo Seys’s lips curled into a mocking smile, saying gloomily, "Turns out the hardest thing to forget is not about rembering frequently, but about never having forgotten, placing it in the deepest part of one’s heart."
Nico Haynes took a big gulp of red wine, "So, Boss Seys, after being toyed with emotionally by Ariel Morris eight years ago, you still choose to forgive her and start over with her?"
Arlo Seys gave a bitter smile, "The words ’start over’ are easy to say, difficult to do. As long as Ariel Morris truly loves , even if she uses to sponsor the Morris Clan, I am willing. My greatest fear is that she treats like in that breakup letter eight years ago: we were only ssing around, now the ga is over, let’s part on good terms!"
"That letter from back then, each word, caused deep pain. Even now, when I recall the contents of that letter, I feel it was the worst wound for , cutting deeply and leaving bloodstained."
Nico Haynes looked at his bitter smile and the flickering pain in his eyes, pressing his lips together. In his mind, Boss Seys had always been invincible and unyielding; this kind of vulnerability and wry bitterness on his lips was sothing he had never witnessed.
"Boss Seys, among so many girls in the world, I don’t believe there’s none better than Ariel Morris! From tomorrow, I’ll take you into my social circle, with all sorts of socialites, daughters of prestigious families, rising stars of the screen, surely, there’ll be soone you like! It’s only Ariel Morris, I refuse to believe she’s the only irreplaceable one!"
Arlo Seys slightly parted his thin lips, his voice deep, "There are so many people in the world, but only one Ariel Morris."
Only one Ariel Morris that he desires.
Beside him, Dawn Sutherland’s eyes dimd slightly and said, "There are so people for whom you can’t pinpoint what’s good, but they are simply irreplaceable."
