Watching Valeria Johnson’s excited look, Ariel Morris couldn’t help but feel both amused and relieved.
Valeria Johnson turned into a brainless person whenever she clung to the na Arlo Seys!
She couldn’t handle this minor blow; if Ariel delivered another critical hit, wouldn’t that repay Valeria Johnson for the burn she inflicted on Ariel’s hand?
With this thought, Ariel Morris suddenly looked at Valeria Johnson and gently said, "What if I told you I slept with him?"
Ariel’s voice was very soft, without any ripple, understated yet very convincing.
Ti suddenly stood still, even the air seed to beco extrely oppressive.
Valeria Johnson widened her eyes in disbelief, "What... did you say?"
Ariel leaned closer to Valeria, as if afraid she hadn’t heard clearly, articulating word by word, exceptionally clear and slow, "I said... I–slept–with–Arlo–Seys! Eight years ago, I slept with Arlo Seys! Did you hear that clearly?"
As Valeria Johnson remained stunned by this bombshell, unable to recover, Ariel continued word by word, "You started pursuing Arlo Seys back in high school, but he didn’t even spare you a look! What a surprise, right? Before I went abroad that year, I slept with Scenic Hill High School’s top heartthrob and then left!"
"Valeria Johnson, do you believe now that Arlo Seys wants to marry ?"
"Valeria Johnson, in these eight years while I was gone, you weren’t able to win over Arlo Seys. Now that I’m back, I’m telling you formally, you have even less chance of winning over Arlo Seys!"
"Eight years ago, be it the school queen competition or pursuing Arlo Seys, you lost to . Now, you still won’t be able to win!"
"If you don’t believe , go ahead and try! Let’s see in the end if you can get Arlo Seys!"
"Boss..." Callan Walkers’ stuttering voice suddenly rang out behind the two.
Ariel Morris and Valeria Johnson turned to look simultaneously.
Standing a few ters away from them, beside Arlo Seys, was Callan Walkers, while Arlo stood there exuding a chilling aura, the surrounding temperature plumting sharply.
Arlo’s eyes, devoid of any warmth, coldly pierced through Ariel, as if wanting to stab her countless tis, dismbering her into pieces to vent his anger.
"..."
Instinctively, Ariel Morris lowered her head and bit her lower lip hard, feeling guilty and too afraid to utter a word.
Heavens, did Arlo hear everything she just said?
She only wanted to annoy Valeria, that’s all!
This was just too much trouble to deal with!!!
Valeria took a glance at Ariel, who was now as deflated as a withered balloon, then looked back at Arlo, whose eyes bore no trace of past warmth as he looked at Ariel coldly.
She thought that all Arlo had for Ariel was hatred; how could he possibly eat his words and marry Ariel a second ti?
The anger in her heart dissipated rapidly, a graceful smile spread across her face as she gracefully walked toward Arlo, greeting him in a soft, gentle, and sweet tone, "Young Master Seys, why are you here?"
Arlo tightened the lines of his face, the contour of his exquisite profile peerlessly elegant, with not the slightest expression on his face, as if he was an inviolable deity. Yet the hand hanging by his side slightly clenched, his ice-cold gaze steadfastly fixed on Ariel.
Ariel Morris, with a bowed head, felt as if a thousand weights were pressing down on her, suffocating her, her head sinking lower and lower.
Callan glanced at his boss, sympathy falling on Ariel.
Miss Morris, you’re on your own.
From what he knew about his boss, the boss was particularly furious at this mont! It was just his good upbringing that made him suppress his urge, refraining from going up and choking Miss Morris, right?!
Feeling the increasingly oppressive atmosphere, Callan wanted to escape the scene by sprinting away.
Valeria noticed Arlo’s gaze fixed on Ariel, feeling a bit uncomfortable inside.
Even though Arlo looked at Ariel as if he wanted to devour her alive, rembering that only Ariel had ever gotten close to Arlo, and their prior romantic past, and her remark earlier about n’s ties to their first loves, prompted her to cautiously, hesitantly ask, "Young Master Seys... Ariel just said that eight years ago... you and she... is it... true?"
